The broad asset allocation is to be 50% invested in growth assets (shares, property) and 50% in defensive assets (fixed interest, cash). Allocations are reviewed regularly although changes are infrequent, and a reallocation would only be considered in response to a fundamental change in long-term expectations or market demand. We seek to add value through a disciplined approach to selection of the shares and other assets held by the option. For risk management purposes, the option indexes part of its global share exposure and may partially hedge currency risk.

Performance data assumptions

Performance is calculated on an initial investment of $10,000 using entry price, with distributions reinvested using actual unit price. No tax or contribution fees have been deducted from the results. If your own investment was subject to contribution fees or if you did not reinvest distributions, your returns may be less than that shown. Your after-tax returns will also be less. Data is sourced directly from fund managers, but we offer no warranty as to the accuracy of the data, we suggest you verify the data from other sources before acting on the information on this site.

These charts show historical performance only and give no indication of future performance. This information is general in nature and does not take into account your personal circumstances, goals or investment objectives. You should assess whether the information is appropriate for you and consider talking to a financial adviser before making any investment decisions.
