Colonial FirstChoice Pension - FSI Equity Income - Managed Fund (Closed)

Fund Objective
To provide a total return comprised of regular income, franking credits and some capital growth from Australian shares over the long term, delivered with consistently lower volatility than the S&P/ASX 100 Accumulation Index. The option aims to deliver risk-adjusted returns that exceed the S&P/ASX 100 Accumulation Index before fees and taxes over a full market cycle.
Fund Strategy
The option's returns are generated from a number of sources, including dividends, franking credits and capital returns from Australian shares, as well as option premium income. The option uses derivatives to modify the return profile of its Australian share holdings. The use of equity options in conjunction with Australian shares is expected to result in a greater proportion of the total return delivered as income and reduced volatility. In selecting Australian shares, investment opportunities are identified by detailed fundamental research.
