Fiducian’s unique multi-manager funds give investors the benefits of diversification across different asset classes, countries, industry sectors and investment styles. All our funds utilise our Manage the Manager System and are available within superannuation or as standalone investments.
Our Diversified Funds have a long-term performance record that ranks among the best in Australia. Each fund features a unique blend of external investment managers with a different proportion of growth and defensive assets. This approach provides easy investment diversification across different risk profiles.
Designed for more conservative investors for whom income generation is a priority, the bulk of this fund’s portfolio is in fixed interest and cash, but with some exposure to shares for a modest level of capital growth.
The Fiducian Balanced Fund has consistently received top quartile and top decile rankings for longer-term investing. The fund is a blend of over 20 external managers with exposure in Australian and international shares, property, fixed interest and cash. It may suit investors seeking good long-term capital growth but are comfortable with possible short-term volatility.
This fund invests more heavily in shares and property than our Capital Stable and Balanced Funds. Over the long term it aims to generate higher returns, but there may be capital losses when markets fall.
Containing 95% growth assets, this fund mostly invests in small companies in Australia and overseas, in companies in emerging markets such as India and China, and in listed property. It may suit long-term investors wanting strong capital growth but accepting of possible major volatility along the way.
Our Specialist Funds let you construct your own diversified portfolio of conventional asset classes, but also with the option to spice up your investments with exposure to less mainstream sectors. As such, our Specialist Funds are ideally suited for core-satellite portfolio strategies in combination with our Diversified Funds.
We brought together six specialist Australian fund managers to create a powerful blend of management styles and expertise for our Australian Shares Fund. They invest in large, well known Australian companies across different industry sectors such as mining, finance and healthcare.
This fund's assets are spread across six specialist fund managers which invest in smaller companies on the Australian Stock Exchange (ASX). Small companies can be more responsive to market conditions and can deliver higher growth than large companies over the longer term, but tend to be more volatile in their performance.
This fund aims to provide secure returns with low risk of capital loss. It invests in fixed interest securities and cash, and may suit investors seeking a source of regular income.
The Strategy provides investors with the opportunity to invest in companies that are listed on the stock exchanges of the less developed (emerging) markets. Emerging markets funds invest in developing countries and offer investors the opportunity to benefit from the significant growth potential inherent in many of these economies as they raise their standards of living.
The Fund is intended to provide a secure return with lower risk of capital loss relative to other investment categories. Approved investments include, but are not limited to, fixed and variable rate debt instruments, fixed interest instruments (including income generating asset backed securities), Australian Dollar term deposits and cash equivalent securities. The return may be above cash returns when interest rates are falling and below cash returns when interest rates are rising.
Borrowing to invest, or 'gearing', has the potential to magnify capital gains. This fund has a modest level of gearing built into its structure to leverage greater exposure to the Australian sharemarket and can deliver high returns over long periods. However, gearing can also magnify the already volatile nature of shares and increase losses in the shorter term compared with ungeared investments.
The Strategy provides investors with the opportunity to invest in companies that are generally of small capitalisation in the more developed markets. Smaller companies in developed and better regulated markets have shown superior long-term growth when compared with their larger peers, as they are generally more flexible and operate in market niches that give them greater opportunity to increase profits.
This fund engages four India-based fund managers to invest in a diverse range of companies listed on the Indian Stock Exchange and offers a rare chance to invest in a still emerging high-growth economy with potential for relatively high returns. However, performance may be more susceptible to political, regulatory, and liquidity risks than other international share funds.
This is a strongly diversified fund, with 14 underlying investment managers who seek out opportunities across a range of industries around the world including innovative companies in fields like computer technology, finance and healthcare. As such a large proportion of the fund is invested in the United States, but in over 50 countries in total.
Our diversified property fund invests in ASX- listed property trusts and other property securities via a diverse trio of specialist fund managers active across property sectors including commercial, retail, tourism and residential.
Technological innovation is rapidly changing our world, and this fund is an opportunity to invest in high-growth industries such as biotechnology, artificial intelligence, micro electronics and information technology. The fund invests worldwide and is well diversified, with each of the four underlying fund managers holding between 30-100 stocks.
Fiducian Managed Portfolios offer investments through eight different styles of portfolio. The Active Portfolios (Conservative Growth, Moderate Growth, Growth, High Growth) enable an investor to (a) select an investment strategy that is consistent with the investment manager of the portfolio or (b) select their own strategic investment allocation between the same underlying investments that are available for selection by the investment manager of the portfolio. The Imputation Portfolio is aimed at selecting securities that provide a growing level of dividend income and some capital growth. The Growth Portfolio invests in securities that are selected primarily for capital growth and is not focussed on generating income, whether franked or not. The Emerging Leaders Portfolio invests in companies that hold a strong market position and have the prospect of positive earnings through growth. The Property Securities Portfolio invests in listed property trusts, and companies with property related business.
