        Investment Objective

        The State Street Australian Cash Trust ("the Fund") seeks an investment return that approximates as closely as practicable, before expenses, the performance of the Bloomberg AusBond Bank Bill Index.

        About this Benchmark

        The Bloomberg AusBond Bank Bill Index ("the Index") represents a short-term Australian money market portfolio. The Index is valued using the Reserve Bank of Australia cash rate and Australian Stock Exchange Bank Bill Swap Rates.

        Investment Strategy

        In managing the Fund, our primary investment strategy is index sampling. The goal of the sampling strategy is to mirror the returns and characteristics of the Index. Our investment process involves purchasing a selection of short term money market securities such that the portfolio matches key characteristics of the index. Characteristics include credit quality, duration, sector exposure and running yield. The Fund also aims to avoid exposure to companies that score unfavourably on financially material sustainability issues relative to their industry peers, as determined by R-FactorTM.

        The Fund is suitable for investors seeking a high degree of liquidity and low risk.

        1 The Responsible Entity reserves the right to not pay any distribution.

        Bonds generally present less short-term risk and volatility than stocks, but contain interest rate risk (as interest rates raise, bond prices usually fall); issuer default risk; issuer credit risk; liquidity risk; and inflation risk. Investments in asset backed and mortgage backed securities are subject to prepayment risk which can limit the potential for gain during a declining interest rate environment and increases the potential for loss in a rising interest rate environment.

        The returns on a portfolio of securities which exclude companies that do not meet the portfolio's sustainable strategy criteria may trail the returns on a portfolio of securities which include such companies. A portfolio's sustainable strategy criteria may result in the portfolio investing in industry sectors or securities which underperform the market as a whole.

        Investing involves risk including the risk of loss of principal. Diversification does not ensure a profit or guarantee against loss.

         

        Risk associated with equity investing includes stock values which may fluctuate in response to the activities of individual companies and general market and economic conditions.

         

        ETFs trade like stocks, are subject to investment risk, fluctuate in market value and may trade at prices above or below the ETF’s net asset value. ETFs typically invest by sampling an index, holding a range of securities that, in the aggregate, approximates the full index in terms of key risk factors and other characteristics. This may cause the fund to experience tracking errors relative to performance of the index.
