The fund performance shown on this website, effective from 1 December 2021, is not calculated using the unit prices for transacting into and out of the fund. The performance from this period has been calculated using adjusted unit prices. The unit prices calculated by the custodian use security prices available at NZ market close, while the benchmark is calculated using the security prices at the close of the different global markets. This pricing methodology difference causes an embedded lagging effect; hence a month-end adjustment is made to so that the fund performance reporting is aligned with the benchmark methodology and we can more accurately report the fund performance against the benchmark. This methodology is effective from 1 December 2021 thereafter. Fund performance for periods up to 30 November 2021 has been calculated using the unit prices for transacting into and out of the fund.
