What are Unit Trusts investments?

A Unit Trust investment is a type of investment that gives you easy access to a variety of assets like stocks or bonds.

It is a collective investment scheme which means it pools investors’ money and invests it in assets such as equities, bonds, or listed property, which are housed in different funds, managed by professional asset managers. Investing in Unit Trusts is a simple and effective way to invest in different assets without needing to pick them yourself or time the market.

Understanding risk appetite

Identify your risk profile

Every investor has a different level of comfort when it comes to risk, and that’s perfectly normal. In investment terms, risk refers to the chance that the value of your investment may increase or decrease - sometimes unpredictably.

Your risk profile reflects how much of this uncertainty you’re comfortable with, how long you plan to invest, and how strongly you react when your portfolio’s performance becomes more volatile. Each of our Unit Trust Funds are invested in a unique combination of underlying assets (or instruments) that perform differently in the market. Some instruments are less volatile while others are more volatile but have a greater chance of delivering higher returns. We’ve assigned a risk rating to each of our funds to help you find the one that suits your risk profile.

Not sure what your risk appetite is? Speak to your financial advisor to find the best unit trust investment for you.

Risk profiles typically fall into these categories:
Low

You prioritise capital preservation over growth

Medium

You’re happy with some market movement for better returns

High

You’ve got time and can handle volatility
