FAIR

Invest in a portfolio of sustainable, ethical Australian companies

Invest Factsheet

Overview

Fund objective

FAIR aims to track the performance of an index (before fees and expenses) that includes Australian companies that have passed screens to exclude companies with direct or significant exposure to fossil fuels or engaged in activities deemed inconsistent with responsible investment considerations.

The Fund’s methodology also preferences companies classified as ‘Sustainability Leaders’ based on their involvement in business activities aligned to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.

Benefits of FAIR

  • Align your investments with your values

    Invest in a way that is consistent with your ethical standards.

  • True-to-label

    FAIR’s investment methodology consists of stringent screening criteria, offering investors a true to label ethical investment solution.

  • Diversified exposure

    FAIR does not invest in any of the “Big 4 Banks”, or large Australian mining companies. In one simple ASX trade, investors gain exposure to a diversified portfolio of ethical Australian companies.

There are risks associated with an investment in FAIR, including market risk, non-traditional index methodology risk and sector concentration risk. An investment in the Fund should only be made after considering your particular circumstances, including your tolerance for risk. For more information on risks and other features of the Fund, please see the Product Disclosure Statement and Target Market Determination, both available on this website.

Past performance is not an indicator of future performance. Returns are calculated in Australian dollars using net asset value per unit at the start and end of the specified period and do not reflect brokerage or the bid ask spread that investors incur when buying and selling units on the ASX. Returns are after fund management costs, assume reinvestment of any distributions and do not take into account tax paid as an investor in the Fund. Returns for periods longer than one year are annualised. Current performance may be higher or lower than the performance shown.

1 This is the annual distribution return to the end of the relevant distribution date. The distribution return reflects the contribution to total investment return made by the Fund's distributions. Distribution return is calculated as the total return less the growth return. Total return is calculated as the percentage change in a continuing investor's interest in the Fund assuming reinvestment of all distributions back into the Fund (and no other application or withdrawal), net of ongoing fees. Growth return is the Fund's return excluding distributions, net of ongoing fees. Past performance is not indicative of future performance.
