Investment Objective

The aim of the portfolio is to outperform the composite benchmark, over rolling five-year periods, after fees.

Benchmark

The Composite Benchmark is an index calculated as the weighted average of the indices selected as benchmarks for each asset class.

Investment Strategy

An actively managed diversified portfolio of securities across both growth asset classes such as Australian and international equities, property and infrastructure; and defensive oriented asset classes, such as cash and fixed interest securities. In general, the portfolio will have a long-term average exposure of around 70% in growth assets and 30% in defensive assets, however the allocations will be actively managed within the allowable ranges depending on market conditions.
