| Fund Overview | The Fund is managed as one portfolio but comprises and combines two separately managed exposures: 1. An investment in the top 20 stocks of the markets, which the Fund achieves by taking an indexed position in the S&P/ASX 20 Index; and 2. An investment in the stocks beyond the S&P/ASX 20 Index. This exposure is managed on an active basis using a fundamental core approach. The Fund may also invest in securities expected to be listed on the ASX, securities listed or expected to be listed on other exchanges where such securities relate to ASX-listed securities.Derivative instruments may be used to replicate underlying positions and hedge market and company specific risks. The companies within the portfolio are primarily selected from, but not limited to, the S&P/ASX 300 Accumulation Index. The Fund typically holds between 40-55 stocks and thus is considered to be highly concentrated. This means that investors should expect to see high short-term volatility. The Fund seeks to achieve growth over the long-term, therefore the minimum suggested investment timeframe is 5 years. |
| Manager Comments | At month-end, the portfolio's weightings had been increased in the Discretionary, IT and Communications sectors, and decreased in the Health Care sector. The Fund has positions in the top 20 stocks and approximately 20-30 ex-20 stocks. Sector exposures will deviate from the benchmark only to the extent that the actively managed investment in ex-20 stocks results in an over of under-weighting to any particular sector. The Fund has a significantly higher weighting towards the Discretionary sector than the benchmark, with an 'Active Weight' of 23.1%; the Discretionary sector makes up 30.9% of the Fund's portfolio but only 7.8% of the benchmark. |
