How it works
The Fund aims to deliver income returns that outperform the Bloomberg AusBond Bank Bill Index (after fees) over any 2 year period by investing in a diversified portfolio of domestic interest bearing securities across a range of maturities.
The Fund offers more than one class of unit. The term used to describe this type of offering is called “multi-class pricing”. Both units are ranked equally on a return of capital basis and have the same investment portfolio.
Class A investors - $2,000 minimum investment (information on this page is relevant to class A investors)
Class B investors - $500,000 minimum investment. An investor who applies for units in the Fund through a platform is defined as a Platform Investor and is issued with Class B units. Sandhurst may, at its discretion, and when certain conditions are met, offer Direct Investors the opportunity to invest directly in Class B units. Further details of when this may occur can be found in the PDS.

Defensive
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 80% of this portfolio would be in defensive assets.
