Performance - Investing in positive and sustainable sectors

We make investing with a clear conscience easier by offering a range of investment options.

Our Ethical Charter steers us into parts of the economy that are good for the planet, people and animals, and away from harmful sectors. As a result, our portfolio differs significantly from the relevant benchmark on a sector-by-sector basis (as shown in the chart below).

We have higher allocations to healthcare, information technology and utilities, and much lower allocations to energy and materials.

Historical returns are updated every month. Our returns are provided on an after-fee basis.

Figures showing a period of less than one year have not been adjusted to show an annual total return. Figures for periods of greater than one year are on a per annum compound basis.

Return of capital and the performance of your investment in the fund are not guaranteed. Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future performance.

Total retuns are calculated:

  • using the sell (exit) price
  • net of management fees
  • gross of tax
  • as of distributions of income have been reinvested at the actual distribution reinvestment price
  • the action returns recieved by an investor will depend on the timing, buy and exit price of individual transactions.

Return of capital and the performance of your investment in the fund are not guaranteed. Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future performance.

Managed Funds unit prices

When you invest, your money buys a number of ‘units’. A ‘unit price’ is the dollar value of each unit in the investment option on the specified date. Unit prices are calculated by dividing the net value of the investment option’s assets by the number of units issued.

The ‘buy’ price is used when you purchase units and the ‘sell’ price is used when you sell units. The ‘net asset value’ price is the value of the units.

If you have any questions about how unit prices are calculated and used, please refer to our Managed Funds Additional Information Booklet.
