PIE tax treatment — capped at your PIR (max 28%)
This fund is a Portfolio Investment Entity (PIE) under Subpart HM of the Income Tax Act 2007. Income is taxed at your Prescribed Investor Rate (10.5% / 17.5% / 28%), not your marginal income-tax rate. The fund manager calculates and pays the tax on your behalf — when your PIR is correct, you usually don't need to declare PIE income in your annual tax return. See our PIR guide and PIE tax basics for the full picture, or use the PIR calculator to confirm your rate.

Responsible-investment approach
The Manager applies a Sustainable Investment Philosophy with four pillars: Support the good, Avoid the bad, Reduce our carbon footprint, and Advocate for change. Exclusions are applied via mandate covering controversial weapons, civilian firearms, military weapons, fossil fuels, thermal coal power generation, nuclear power, tobacco, palm oil, whale products, UN Global Compact violators, primary industry GICS exclusions, NZ Super Fund exclusions, and Russian Federation securities. A significant ownership filter excludes companies owning 10–50% of excluded entities where total exclusion applies.
Exclusions
- Controversial weapons (anti-personnel mines, biological/chemical weapons, cluster weapons, nuclear weapons, depleted uranium, white phosphorus)
- Civilian firearms producers and distributors >5% revenue
- Military weapons >5% revenue
- Fossil fuels (arctic oil & gas, oil & gas, oil sands, shale energy, thermal coal)
- Power generation from thermal coal >5% revenue
- Nuclear power >5% electricity generation
- Tobacco producers and distributors >5% revenue
- Palm oil producers and distributors
- Whale meat production
- UN Global Compact violators
- Primary industry GICS exclusions (coal, integrated oil & gas, oil & gas drilling, oil & gas equipment, oil & gas exploration and production, tobacco)
- NZ Super Fund exclusion list
- Securities issued by or traded on Russian Federation
Derivatives policy
Derivatives may be used for risk management or to optimise investment strategy implementation. Each fund (and any underlying fund) is permitted to hold derivatives for currency hedging and other risk management purposes, and derivatives related to each asset class so long as total market exposure remains within permitted asset allocation ranges.
Reading between the lines
Plain-English summary of the scheme's disclosed conflicts and performance-fee mechanics, drawn from the OMI and PDS. Factual restatement — no opinion.
- AMP acknowledges a conflict of interest because its administration functions are delegated to AMP Services (NZ) Limited, a related company, and paid from the management fee AMP controls.
- AMP discloses it may change the fee paid to AMP Services at any time, meaning internal cost allocation between related parties can shift without investor approval.
- AMP Limited, as ultimate holding company, sets the governance and conflicts-management procedures that apply to the manager, creating a related-party oversight structure.
- BlackRock Investment Management (Australia) Limited provides investment management services and exercises voting and stewardship rights for AMP's underlying funds; it is not identified as a related party.
