The Fund aims to deliver positive absolute returns in all market environments. In addition to holding long-only New Zealand and Australian securities, the Fund may, at our discretion short sell securities, hold cash, lever its assets and utilise active currency management to generate returns (although generally will be fully hedged). The investment objective is to outperform the Reserve Bank of New Zealand Official Cash Rate +5% p.A. On a rolling three year basis.
