The Fund of Choice
Through tailored solutions and member centred product development we have consistently outperformed both our target benchmark as well as a number of well-established balanced portfolios with a similar risk profile.
The Success
Our success can be attributed to our investment approach. The fund offers members a single default portfolio that seeks to deliver a real return of 4.5% above inflation (CPI+4.5%) over any consecutive five-year period at a minimum level of risk.
The future
Our members being at the core of what we do, we will always have the drive and passion to do better. We continue to seek innovative and cost-effective ways of serving our members. We remain focused on creating sustainable returns and benefits.
