The fund performance shown on this website 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.

Performance figures assume reinvestment of income. The benchmark return shown does not include any fees and is not intended to be an indicator of the return to an investor. Performance data is provided for informational purposes only and is not intended to imply a recommendation about a product or form the basis for making an investment decision.
