Fund-specific answers
Where we've already produced an answer for a fund whose Google PAA includes this question, that answer is shown below — grounded in the fund's own filed data. Not personal financial advice.
Evidential Sustainable Targeted Factor Fund
What fund should my KiwiSaver be in?
Fund choice depends on your personal circumstances, investment horizon, and risk tolerance, which are outside the scope of this comparison tool. If you hold a KiwiSaver scheme account, your fund provider's literature and FMA Disclose register should outline the risk, fees, and investment approach of each option available to you. The Evidential Sustainable Targeted Factor Fund is not a KiwiSaver product and is available through Evidential directly.
