Ausbil Investment Trust - australian GEARED Equity Fund

The Australian Geared Equity Fund is an actively managed Fund that borrows to invest into a portfolio of listed Australian equities that are generally chosen from the S&P/ASX 300 Index. The Fund will be geared by borrowing from a third party lender to purchase Australian equities. The gearing ratio is in part determined by the relationship between the dividend yield and the borrowing rate so that, as much as possible, the dividends and income of the Fund exceed the cost of borrowing and other expenses. Therefore, when interest rates are low relative to dividend yields, then the gearing ratio may be relatively high, and vice-versa. A specific gearing ratio is not targeted for the Fund. The gearing ratio may also change on a daily basis as a result of market movements and cash flows into the Fund.

 

Gearing Risk

Gearing is the use of borrowings to invest. It increases and magnifies the volatility of investment gains or losses and reduces the security of capital invested. Geared investments may significantly underperform equivalent non-geared investments when the underlying assets experience negative returns. In extreme negative market conditions, all capital invested could be lost.
