Objectives and Strategy
Fund Objective To provide exposure to a diversified portfolio of high quality fixed income investments. The Fund aims to outperform a benchmark based on the various sector market indices weighted according to the benchmark asset allocation over the suggested investment time frame.
Fund Strategy The investment strategy of the Fund is to obtain exposure to a range of predominantly domestic fixed income sectors including Australian fixed income, inflation linked bonds and cash with significant exposure to international fixed income investments. The Fund primarily aims to gain diversification from industry/sector selection, security selection, credit quality and country selection. This results in a conservative, actively managed diverse fixed income portfolio.
