Smartsave Pensions Australian Shares - Geared - Managed Fund (Closed)

Fund Objective
To maximise investors' expected returns from investing in a portfolio of Australian shares through borrowing to increase the overall market exposure. The Fund aims to outperform the performance benchmark over rolling five year periods, consistent with the relative quarterly return volatility risk.
Fund Strategy
An enhanced index approach, with investments primarily made directly in a diversified selection of Australian listed securities that make up the S&P/ASX 200 Index. Although the strategy includes an allocation of only 20% to pure index funds, the directly-held component will explicitly take account of the individual security index weightings and typically only invest in the larger companies included in the ASX50 Index.
