Colonial FirstChoice Pension - Colonial Enhanced Index Growth - Managed Fund (Closed)

Fund Objective
To provide long-term capital growth with less fluctuations of returns than 'high growth' investment options. To outperform the option's composite benchmark over rolling three-year periods before fees and taxes.
Fund Strategy
The option allocates 80% of investments to growth assets such as shares and property and infrastructure securities. The shares component is managed using an approach aiming to deliver long term returns above that of market capitalisation indices. The property and infrastructure components are managed to closely match the returns of relevant market capitalisation indices. 20% of the portfolio is allocated to defensive assets such as fixed interest and cash to provide the portfolio with relatively stable returns.
