Standard Risk Measure

A Standard Risk Measure score of 5 equates to a Risk Label of 'Medium to High' and an estimated number of negative annual returns over any 20 year period of 3 to less than 4. This is a measure of expected frequency (not magnitude) of capital losses, calculated in accordance with ASFA/FSC guidelines.

Investment objective

To provide capital growth of your investment over the medium to long term by investing in a diversified portfolio of growth and defensive assets, and to achieve a total return after fees in excess of the Trusts benchmark over a rolling five-year period.

Investment strategy

The Trust generally gains its exposure to a diversified portfolio of investments through a mix of investment managers.

The moderate growth orientation of the Trust means it has similar exposure to growth assets (such as Australian and international property and shares and alternative growth) and defensive assets (such as cash, fixed interest and alternative defensive).

The Trust is authorised to utilise approved derivative instruments for risk management purposes subject to the specific restriction that the derivative instruments cannot be used to gear portfolio exposure.

The underlying investment managers may utilize strategies for the management of currency exposure. The level of currency hedging used for the Trust will vary from time to time. The Trust has the capacity to change the level and nature of the currency overlay to manage the Trusts currency risk.

Investor profile

The Trust may be suitable for investors:
- with an investment time frame of approximately five years
- with a medium level of risk tolerance
- who are seeking both income and capital growth through a well-diversified portfolio

Performance is net of management costs and expenses. Performance is based on exit price to exit price for the period and assumes that all distributions are reinvested. Management costs and other expenses are accounted for in the exit price. Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future performance.

Portfolio highlights

As at 30 June 2025


During the June quarter we made a change to our global shares strategy. Life Cycle Investment Partners (“LCIP”) were appointed replacing Royal London Asset Management. LCIP utilise a ‘corporate life cycle’ approach to investing which is differentiated from many other global share managers. The approach is constructed to minimise any style impacts, with outperformance potential coming from their active stock picking ability. The approach blends well with our existing global share manager line-up. We are also familiar with key members of the Life Cycle Investment Partners team, having invested with them previously.


Contributors to performance


  There were very strong returns in Australian shares (8.0%) and global shares (5.4%).


  The exposure to global listed property (+2.2%) and global listed infrastructure (+1.4%) generated positive returns.


  Exposure to fixed interest and insurance related investments contributed positively to performance. The diversified fixed interest strategy returned +2.3% and insurance related investments returned +2.3%.


Detractors from performance


  There was weak performance in unlisted property (-1.7%).


  In Australian and global shares there was weak performance from some of the underlying managers.
