The following three Unit Trusts are all PIE-registered:
Tasman Fund
This portfolio invests primarily in large New Zealand and Australian listed company shares. This managed fund aims to deliver returns in excess of a composite index comprising 50% NZSX50 index and 50% ASX 200 index over the long term. Accordingly this portfolio will typically be fully invested regardless of short term market trends. Australian companies may comprise up to 100% of this portfolio.
This fund is suitable for long term investors (5 years plus) who wish to benefit from the superior investment returns available from equity markets over extended time frames whilst also being prepared to tolerate short term capital volatility.

Alpha Fund
This portfolio is an absolute or total return fund which invests primarily in NZ and Australian equities. This managed fund does not follow any index but rather seeks out opportunities to buy undervalued businesses selected from our best research ideas, typically holding less than 15 securities. As the Alpha Fund is focused on generating positive investment returns (rather than relative returns) it may hold significant cash balances when attractive investment opportunities are scarce. Investment returns from the Fund are likely to be volatile as the portfolio will often have concentrated exposures to a limited number of shares. The Alpha Fund has the same underlying investment philosophy and research process as Brook’s other Australasian equity funds.

Walter Scott Global Share Fund
The Walter Scott Global Share Fund (the Fund) aims to produce a long-term return in accordance with Walter Scott & Partners Limited's global equities investment strategy. This managed fund offers a concentrated portfolio of approximately 40 - 60 international stocks which they believe offers above-average earnings growth. The Fund is suitable for investors seeking a long-term investment return.
