Why these two differ
The most material structural difference between these two funds is their asset allocation. The ANZ Investments OneAnswer Conservative Fund holds 23.37% in growth assets, positioning it as a capital-preservation-oriented portfolio with the majority allocated to income assets such as NZ government bonds and floating rate notes. Summer Growth Selection, by contrast, holds 77.76% in growth assets, reflecting a substantially higher equity orientation with top holdings including the Vanguard ESG US Stock ETF, Fisher & Paykel Healthcare, and Microsoft Corporation.
This allocation gap is reflected in both risk and return figures. The ANZ fund carries a risk indicator of 3 against Summer Growth Selection's 4, on the FMA's 1–7 scale. Over the five-year period disclosed in each fund's latest Quarterly Fund Update, Summer Growth Selection returned 4.51% per annum compared to 1.62% for the ANZ fund — though past returns are not a reliable indicator of future performance, and the higher return has come alongside higher volatility exposure.
Fees also differ materially. The ANZ fund discloses an annual fund charge of 0.63%, while Summer Growth Selection discloses 1.02%. Fund sizes are broadly comparable: ANZ at NZD 103.9 million and Summer at NZD 111.5 million. Both are KiwiSaver scheme accounts, meaning member money is subject to KiwiSaver scheme rules and withdrawal restrictions.
