FAQs

Portability

At any time, you can terminate the fee arrangement with us and manage the securities yourself. You will have no capital gains tax (CGT) events triggered if you wish to transfer the listed securities held within your PMA to another broking account to self-manage (transfer fees may apply). 

Diversification

You can invest in model portfolios of listed securities covering a range of asset classes such as Australian equities, international equities, listed property and fixed income, combining investment expertise with complete administration of your portfolio including ongoing rebalancing and full tax reporting. 

Capped Investment Fees and low brokerage

Our investment management fees start at just $55 p.a. and capped at $550 p.a. for total investments over $100,000*. You can also benefit from low brokerage costs of $4.40 or 0.088% (whichever is greater on any buys or sells).

See the range of InvestSMART's diversified capped-fee portfolios here.

Instead of owning the underlying securities, investors buy units in the managed fund and will receive distributions according to the amount of units they hold.
Managed funds allow individuals to invest in assets or asset classes that may normally be difficult for an individual to access on their own, for example international markets. Additionally, they have diversification benefits and the fund is managed by a professional fund manager.

Managed funds are either listed or unlisted. Listed managed funds trade on the share market. This means they can be bought or sold on the share market. Investors can access them by buying units through their broker. Unlisted managed funds are not traded on a share market. To purchase (or sell) units in an unlisted managed fund, you must buy (or sell) directly through the fund manager. 

A managed fund is a pooled investment. Investors combine their money with other investors, and this pool of funds is managed by a fund manager. Investors will own units in the managed fund but not the underlying securities.
