About this Investment

Investment objective: To provide returns in excess of the RBA Cash Rate over rolling three-year periods before fees and taxes, with a relatively low degree of volatility. This will be achieved by combining cash and short duration fixed interest investments with long and short Australian equity holdings chosen using Acadian's equity process. Sophisticated portfolio construction techniques will be used to implement this in a way that limits equity market exposure. The fund was launched on 19 December 2008. Read the PDS and TMD before investing. Source: FE fundinfo.
