S&P 500 Yield Maximiser Fund (managed fund)
- International shares
Earn enhanced income from a diversified portfolio of US shares
Overview
Fund objective
UMAX aims to generate attractive quarterly income and reduce the volatility of portfolio returns by implementing an equity income investment strategy over a portfolio of stocks comprising the S&P 500 Index. UMAX does not aim to track an index.
Benefits of UMAX
-
Attractive quarterly income
Earn quarterly income expected to significantly exceed the dividend yield of the underlying share portfolio over the medium term. UMAX seeks to enhance dividend income through what is known as a ‘covered call’ strategy.
-
Portfolio diversification
In one ASX trade, gain exposure to a portfolio of the largest 500 U.S. companies.
-
Potential downside risk management
The additional income generated by UMAX’s strategy may partly offset potential losses in falling markets.
There are risks associated with an investment in UMAX, including market risk, foreign exchange risk and use of options 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.
