Why these two differ

The most material structural difference between these two funds is how they are built. The ANZ Investments OneAnswer International Fixed Interest Fund holds a diversified portfolio of individual bonds and mortgage-backed securities directly — with identifiable positions including FNMA TBA contracts, Government National Mortgage Association instruments, a US Treasury note, and a UK gilt — while the Daintree High Income PIE holds 98.06% of its assets in a single underlying vehicle, the Daintree High Income Trust NZD, with 1.94% in NZD cash. Investors in the Daintree fund are therefore exposed to the construction and risk profile of that underlying trust, which is not fully visible at the top-holdings level in this snapshot.

On risk, the two funds sit on opposite sides of a meaningful divide: ANZ carries a risk indicator of 4 and Daintree a risk indicator of 3, despite both being classified as International Fixed Interest. This likely reflects Daintree's materially lower growth-asset allocation (0.07% versus ANZ's 0.31%) and potentially shorter duration positioning within the underlying trust. ANZ's annual fund charge is 0.49%; Daintree's is 0.90%, a difference of 41 basis points. For five-year returns, ANZ discloses 0.57% per annum; Daintree's five-year return figure is not available in this snapshot, as the fund or its current structure may not have a sufficiently long track record. ANZ's fund is also considerably larger at approximately NZD 2.28 million versus Daintree's approximately NZD 744,000.
