Invest with us

Overview

Fund objective

EINC invests in an actively managed portfolio of income-oriented Australian shares that aims to generate an after-tax yield higher than that produced by the S&P/ASX 200 Index, and to grow that income above the rate of inflation. The Fund is managed by Franklin Templeton’s Specialist Investment Manager, Martin Currie.

Benefits of EINC

  • Attractive income from quality companies

    The Fund actively selects quality Australian companies paying attractive income, and with the potential for long-term income growth.

  • Simple investment strategy, tax efficient

    EINC invests only in high-quality shares and does not use derivatives to generate income. Also, the Fund aims to maximise the benefits of franking credits for investors.

  • Lower volatility

    The Fund’s active management approach targets lower portfolio volatility than the S&P/ASX 200 Index and less concentrated stock and sector exposures.

There are risks associated with an investment in EINC, including market risk, individual security risk and market making risk. Investment value can go up and down. An investment in the Fund should only be considered as a part of a broader portfolio, taking into account 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.

 

How to invest

  • You can buy or sell units just like you’d buy or sell any share on the ASX.
  • Fund requires no minimum investment.

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.
