Candriam Equities L Australia

About this fund

Candriam Equities L Australia (hereafter "the fund"), a sub-fund of the Candriam Equities L sicav, invests predominantly in Australian equities, broadly diversified over economic sectors and debtor risks. The investment horizon is 6 years. The fund is managed actively, with reference to the index mentioned on the section "characteristics". For further information about this index and its use, please consult the fund’s key investor information document (KIID).
Principal assets traded:
Shares of companies whose registered offices and/or principal activities are in Australia.

Investment strategy:
The fund seeks to achieve capital growth by investing in the principal assets traded and to outperform the benchmark.
Within the limits of the fund’s investment objective and policy, the management team makes discretionary investment choices in the portfolio based on its analyses of the characteristics and growth prospects of the assets traded. The fund does not have sustainable investment as its objective and does not specifically promote environmental and/or social characteristics.
The fund may make use of derivative products for both investment and hedging purposes (to protect against future unfavourable financial events).

Benchmark: All Ordinaries (Gross Return).
The fund is managed actively and the investment approach implies a reference to a benchmark (the index).
Benchmark definition:
The index measures the performance of the 500 largest securities of the Australian equity market.
Use of the benchmark:
- as an investment universe. In general, the financial instruments of the sub-fund are mostly contained in the index. However, investments outside this index are authorised;
- in determining risk levels/parameters;
- for performance comparison purposes.
As the fund is managed actively, it does not aim to invest in each component of the index nor to invest in the same proportions as the components of the index. In normal market conditions, the expected tracking error of the fund will be moderate to large, namely between 2% and 6%. This measure is an estimation of the divergence of the fund’s performance compared to the performance of the benchmark. The greater the tracking error, the greater the deviations from the index. The actual tracking error depends in particular on market conditions (volatility and correlations between financial instruments) and may therefore differ from the expected tracking error.
