LIB - Vanguard Australian Property Securities Index Fund Open - Managed Fund

Fund Objective
The Fund seeks to track the return of the S&P/ASX 300 A-REIT Index before taking into account fees, expenses, and tax.
Fund Strategy
The S&P/ASX 300 A-REIT Index comprises property securities (shares) listed on the Australian Securities Exchange ('ASX'). These securities are real estate investment trusts and companies that own real estate assets and derive a significant proportion of their revenue from rental income. The Fund will hold all of the securities in the index most of the time, allowing for individual security weightings to vary marginally from the index from time to time.
