Macquarie International Equities - Managed Fund

Fund Objective
The Macquarie International Equities Fund aims to marginally outperform the MSCI World ex-Australia Net Dividends Reinvested Index (Index) in Australian dollars (unhedged) over the medium to long term (three to five years), before fees, by using low risk enhancement techniques.
Fund Strategy
Macquarie uses a range of techniques that are categorised into two types - statistical and event driven. The Fund's active positions aim to add value without any one position greatly increasing the overall risk. Each position is monitored daily to ensure it remains within strict equity, sector and country limits and the reasons for holding it are still valid. The Fund continually assesses new techniques as potential methods of adding value.
