How it works
The Fund uses a predominantly active approach, meaning it identifies, monitors and allocates amounts between specialist asset managers who buy and sell assets based on changing market conditions.
Sandhurst will select asset managers to invest the Fund’s assets across a variety of asset classes. Together through the selection of expert asset managers and the asset allocation, Sandhurst will seek to meet or exceed the investment return objective.
Its objective is to deliver investment returns after fees in excess of 2% above inflation over any 10 year period. The neutral position of the Fund is 40% growth assets and 60% defensive assets.
Asset type | Min | Max |
---|---|---|
Australian shares | 5% | 30% |
International shares | 5% | 35% |
Property & infrastructure | 0% | 20% |
Fixed interest | 20% | 65% |
Alternatives | 0% | 20% |
Cash | 0% | 40% |
In exceptional market conditions the Fund may have asset class allocations outside the stated minimum and maximum for short periods of time.

Defensive or conservative
To invest in this style, you would have a low tolerance for losses and risks which naturally leads you to give up on a larger return that comes with higher-risk investments. This investment style often looks to fixed income products such as cash, loan funds and bond funds. Usually at least 60% of this portfolio would be in defensive assets.
Recommended investment timeframe
Recommended for at least a 3 year investment period.
