The Fund’s objective is (before fees) to exceed the performance of the Bloomberg AusBond Composite Bond Index over the medium term by actively investing in a diversified, medium-risk portfolio of predominantly Australian and some international higher yielding (sovereign and corporate) fixed interest securities and derivatives.
The Fund is actively managed by QIC and invests in a diversified, medium-risk portfolio of fixed interest securities and derivatives using a top-down and bottom-up approach in managing interest rate, inflation and credit risk. Investments are predominately Australian securities but may include up to 25% exposure to international higher yielding (sovereign and corporate) fixed interest securities where QIC believes risk exposure would contribute to achieving the Fund’s performance and risk objectives. By adopting this approach QIC aims to achieve returns in excess of the benchmark.
DDH has appointed QIC Limited ACN 130 539 123 (QIC) as the Fund’s wholesale investment manager.
QIC is one of Australia’s largest wholesale specialist fund managers with over 30 years’ experience in providing multi-asset portfolios and alternative assets with a long-term mindset. For further information on QIC, please refer to their website: https://www.qic.com/.
