Overview

Fund Objective

UTIP aims to track the performance of an index (before fees and expenses) that provides exposure to a portfolio of US Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (‘TIPS’), hedged into AUD.

TIPS are a type of government bond issued by the US Treasury, whose face value and interest payments are adjusted for inflation, as measured by US CPI.

Benefits

Inflation-protected principal and income

TIPS provide protection from a higher inflation environment by indexing both principal and coupon payments to the US CPI.

Potential defensive benefits

As part of a broader portfolio, UTIP may provide defensive benefits during times of significant global economic weakness.

Potential outperformance in inflationary environments

TIPS typically outperform traditional fixed rate Treasuries of equivalent maturities when inflation is higher than expected, or when inflation expectations are on the upswing (but likewise can be expected to underperform in declining inflationary environments).

There are risks associated with an investment in UTIP, including interest rate risk, credit risk, international investment risk and inflation 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.

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.
