Financial advisers are regulated by the Financial Markets Authority to varying levels, depending on the type of adviser and the nature of the services they provide. Some financial advisers are only allowed to provide advice on a limited range of products When seeking or receiving financial advice, you should check- the type of adviser you are dealing with: the services the adviser can provide you with: the products the adviser can advise you on.

5 What s your plan? Retire in style If you retire at 65 without a savings plan in place you could end up having to rely on the government for 20 or more years. Did you know that the average married couple currently get around $550 a week from NZ Superannuation?* That s around $28,600 a year for two people to live on. Will relying on this alone provide the retirement lifestyle you re looking forward to? * As at October Source: Work and Income. Secure your future Joining KiwiSaver is a smart financial choice - it s a regular form of saving that the government and your employer also contribute to (if you are employed and contributing, and are otherwise eligible). With regular contributions to your Scheme account you are growing a retirement fund that can help secure the lifestyle you would like to enjoy in your later years. Buy your own home KiwiSaver can provide you with valuable help to buy your first home. In addition to potentially being able to withdraw your and your employer s contributions, you may also qualify for a subsidy of up to $5,000 from the government. Imagine owning your own home, and your employer and the government helping you to pay for it! If you have previously owned a home and want a second chance, this facility could also be available to you. Some conditions apply see page 10 for further details. Whatever your plan, the KiwiSaver Scheme can help you achieve it. KiwiSaver Scheme 5

6 Key Information Summary Key terms What is KiwiSaver? Who can join the Scheme? What are the benefits? When can I withdraw my money from KiwiSaver? Who is the Scheme provider? Further information KiwiSaver is a voluntary savings initiative that was set up by the government. It is designed to help you grow a retirement fund that can help secure the lifestyle you would like to enjoy in later years. New membership in the Scheme is open to natural persons who are: normally living in New Zealand; New Zealand citizens (or are entitled to live in New Zealand indefinitely); and under the New Zealand Superannuation qualification age (currently 65 years of age), unless they are transferring from another KiwiSaver scheme. The government provides a one-off $1,000 kick-start contribution when you first join KiwiSaver. If you are over 18 and below the KiwiSaver Qualifying Age (see When can I withdraw my money from KiwiSaver? below), and contributing to a KiwiSaver scheme account through your salary or wage, your employer will generally also contribute a minimum of 3% (less tax) of your gross salary or wage. If you are over 18 (and below the KiwiSaver Qualifying age) you may also receive a member tax credit of up to $521 a year (50 cents for every $1 you contribute up to a maximum of $1,043). You may be entitled to use your KiwiSaver savings to help you buy a first home, and you may also be entitled to a first home purchase subsidy. Generally, you will not be able to access your KiwiSaver savings until you reach the KiwiSaver Qualifying Age. This is the New Zealand Superannuation age (currently 65 years of age) or once you have been a member of a KiwiSaver scheme or a complying superannuation fund for 5 years, whichever is later. In limited circumstances you may be eligible for an early withdrawal of your KiwiSaver savings (which may or may not include the government kick-start contribution or member tax credits). These circumstances include: buying your first home; significant financial hardship; serious illness; permanent emigration (other than to Australia in which case your KiwiSaver savings can be transferred to an Australian complying superannuation scheme if they are below the maximum amount set out in Australian legislation, currently $400,000, though this is subject to change. KiwiSaver savings that are above the maximum amount that has been set cannot be transferred in whole or in part); death (in which case your KiwiSaver savings will be paid to executors or administrators of your estate); and where any Act or Court order requires a withdrawal to be made. Fisher Managed Funds Limited ( FMF ) is the Manager and provider of the Scheme. FMF s ultimate holding company is Fisher Funds Management Limited ( Fisher Funds ). Fisher Funds is a 100% New Zealand owned and operated company, managing more than $5 billion for more than 250,000 New Zealanders.

7 Key terms What funds can I invest in? Further information The Scheme has a total of six Funds. If you have been automatically enrolled in the Scheme by Inland Revenue, you are a Default Member and your contributions will be invested exclusively in the Cash Enhanced Fund. This Fund is not available to other Scheme members. All Scheme members can select from six investment strategies (a carefully designed investment mix to fit a specific investor profile) or you can build your own investment strategy by choosing one or a mix of any of the five individual Funds below: For more information See pages 14 to 21 Preservation Fund; Balanced Fund; Equity Fund. Conservative Fund; Growth Fund; and How much do I have to pay? What are the risks? What are the charges? Does anyone guarantee the investment? Does the Scheme use related parties? Who can I contact for further information? For help with choosing an investment strategy see Your investment options on page 14. If you are an employee, you are currently required to contribute at the rate of 3%, 4% or 8% of your before tax salary or wages. The amount is deducted from your after-tax salary or wages. If you are self-employed or not working, you can choose the amount that you contribute. There is currently no minimum contribution requirement. You can choose to make regular contributions or lump sum payments to your Scheme account. All investments involve a degree of risk. The potential return on an investment is generally related to the risk of the investment. The key factor that determines your returns is the investment performance of the Fund(s) you are invested in. The performance of a Fund is determined by the Fund s asset allocation. Generally, Funds that are invested in a higher proportion of growth assets will have the potential for higher returns in the long term but experience more volatility. Funds that are invested in a higher proportion of income assets will have lower potential returns but have less volatility and therefore have less risk attached to them. Each Fund is charged a management fee which is deducted from the assets of the Fund and paid to us. A Trustee fee and an administration fee are deducted from your Scheme account. Each Fund may invest in other funds which may charge fees and incur expenses. We do not charge Scheme expenses to the Cash Enhanced Fund (or to your Scheme account while you are invested in that Fund) except in limited circumstances. The other five Funds are charged expenses in respect of the Scheme. None of the Crown, FMF, Fisher Funds, the Trustee, or any other person or company, guarantees or promises the repayment of, or returns on, investments in the Scheme. The Scheme may use related parties to provide services in respect of the Funds. As at the date of this investment statement all of the Funds invest in underlying funds managed by Fisher Funds. All arrangements are conducted on arms length commercial terms. You can check the balance of your account, obtain information and check your membership details through If you have any questions about your account, you can contact your financial advisor (if you have one), us at kiwisavertwo@fisherfunds. co.nz, call us on or write to us at our address.

8 What is KiwiSaver? KiwiSaver is a voluntary savings initiative designed to enable you to grow a retirement fund that can help secure the lifestyle you would like to enjoy in your later years. Joining KiwiSaver is a smart financial choice as it is a regular form of saving that the government and your employer also contribute to. What is the purpose of this document? This document provides information about KiwiSaver and explains how the Scheme can help you achieve your goals. It begins by explaining how KiwiSaver works and the options that you have. The back of the document contains information that must be made available to you by law. If you are reading this investment statement, you are either considering joining the Scheme, or, as part of the government s KiwiSaver enrolment process, you were allocated to the Scheme from the date you started your new employment, or elected to opt into KiwiSaver. If you decide to join the Scheme, the application form is on page 39. We will confirm that we ve received your application, and once we receive either your first contribution or the kick-start contribution from Inland Revenue we ll send you confirmation of your enrolment. How KiwiSaver can grow your wealth With KiwiSaver, your savings can grow faster than other savings or investments because the government and your employer contribute to your account. When you join KiwiSaver you will receive a $1,000 kick start payment from the government. You may be eligible for a range of other benefits including: up to approximately $521 government member tax credit per year (see page 28 Member tax credits ); compulsory employer contributions of a minimum of 3% of your salary or wages to your Scheme account (see page 27 How much do I pay? ); home purchase withdrawal and subsidy to help you buy a first home (see page 10 How KiwiSaver can help you buy a first home ); tax on income at variable rates up to 28% depending on your income (see page 31 How will my investment be taxed? ). How KiwiSaver makes saving easy Your contributions to the Scheme come from your salary or wages as part of the PAYE system, or for non wage or salary earners, through regular direct debit or lump sum payments (see page 27 How much do I pay? ). Members who contribute directly to a KiwiSaver scheme account through their salary or wages are required to contribute at the current minimum rate of 3% (see page 27 for more information). The table below shows how much you could currently be contributing to your Scheme account (depending on your gross salary or wages). If you are aged between 18 and the KiwiSaver Qualifying Age and qualify for both employer and government contributions, you will notice that in addition to employee and employer contributions, the government contributes a member tax credit which is an additional benefit not available with other investments and savings schemes. If you have existing investment savings and you wish to consolidate them into your Scheme account, please complete the Additional Lump Sum form on page 49 and we ll arrange the rest. If you are self-employed or not currently working, and are over 18 but under the KiwiSaver Qualifying Age you can also take advantage of the member tax credit of up to approximately $521 a year (see page 28 for conditions). You ll need to contribute approximately $20 a week, $87 a month or $1,043 a year to be eligible for the full member tax credit.

KiwiSaver Scheme 9

10 How KiwiSaver can help you buy a first home First home withdrawal With KiwiSaver you can apply to withdraw all, or part, of your and your employer s contributions to put towards buying your first home. You can make a first home withdrawal if you: have been a KiwiSaver member for at least three years; have not made a withdrawal from a KiwiSaver scheme for the purchase of a home before; are purchasing a property that is, or is intended to be, your principal place of residence; are buying your first home (or have confirmation from Housing New Zealand that you are in the same position as a first home buyer in terms of income, assets and liabilities). The first home withdrawal can only be paid to your solicitor s account once all conditions of the sale and purchase agreement have been met. Acceptance of your application for a first home withdrawal will be at the discretion of FMF. If your application is accepted, you will continue to be a member of the Scheme and will still be able to make contributions. Government contributions (including member tax credits and the $1,000 government kick start contribution) cannot be withdrawn for the purchase of your home. First home purchase subsidy A first home purchase subsidy (administered by Housing New Zealand) of up to $5,000 may also be available if you meet all the following criteria and conditions. You must: be a member of a KiwiSaver scheme, or a complying superannuation fund; have contributed at least the minimum contribution rate of income to a KiwiSaver scheme or complying superannuation fund for at least three years; be buying your first home or property (or have a confirmation from Housing New Zealand that you are in the same position as a first home buyer in terms of income, assets and liabilities); live in the house for at least six months from settlement date (otherwise you will need to repay the first home purchase subsidy); not be purchasing an investment property; be 18 years old or over; have not received a home purchase subsidy before; have a yearly income of $80,000 or less (before tax) in the last 12 months and are buying a home yourself (for one buyer), or have a combined yearly income of $120,000 or less (before tax) in the last 12 months (for two or more buyers); 10 KiwiSaver Scheme

11 have a deposit of at least 10% of the purchase price (for this purpose, any KiwiSaver first home withdrawal or first home purchase subsidy you may be eligible for can be counted towards this deposit amount, even though they are not paid out until settlement); be buying one or more of the following types of property and land arrangements (for more information on these property types go to Fee simple; Stratum estate (freehold and leasehold); Cross-lease (freehold and leasehold); Leasehold; if buying land: a house must be built within 12 months of purchase; and you must show you will have funding for the construction of the house; and the total cost of land and building must be within the house price caps; and the land is ready to build on. There are other eligibility criteria (which include regional house price caps) which are set by Housing New Zealand. For complete and up to date eligibility criteria, please go to Housing New Zealand may change the eligibility criteria at any time. Second chance homes You may have previously owned a home but no longer do so. If that s the case you may have a second chance at home ownership with the help of KiwiSaver. You may be eligible for the first home withdrawal and the home purchase subsidy (as described above) as long as you: have not received either the first home withdrawal or the home purchase subsidy before; and are in a similar position to first home buyers in terms of assets, income and liabilities (because of adverse circumstances such as, but not limited to, redundancy, illness or a relationship break-up). You will need to apply to Housing New Zealand for a determination that you are in a similar position to a first home buyer. More detailed eligibility criteria, based on assets, income and liabilities, can be obtained by going to Housing New Zealand may change the eligibility criteria at any time. More information on first or second chance home withdrawals can be obtained by contacting Housing New Zealand. KiwiSaver Scheme 11

12 How your KiwiSaver savings are invested Your KiwiSaver savings will be invested in different asset classes such as cash, fixed interest, commercial property, equities and alternative investments, depending on the investment guidelines of the Fund/s you are invested in. Broadly speaking, the asset classes which the Funds invest in can be categorised as being either income or growth assets. Growth assets are those which tend to give higher returns over the long term but experience more volatility (movements up or down in the value of your investment) than income assets in the short term. The mix of income and growth assets therefore determines the risk/return profile of the Funds. Note: short term refers to up to three years, mediumterm refers to three to seven years and long-term refers to over seven years. Income assets Income assets aim to provide investors with returns primarily sourced from interest payments, but in some cases capital gains may be received as well. Income assets are generally considered to be lower risk than growth assets, however there is still potential for capital losses. Income assets include: Cash Short-term, easily sold interest-bearing investments, eg. government bills, bank bills, bank certificates of deposit and short-term debt securities issued by corporate businesses or local authorities. Cash is the lowest risk, most conservative asset class, but generally provides lower returns than the other four asset classes. Fixed interest Medium-term to longer-term fixed interest-bearing investments, eg. bonds issued by governments or their agencies and medium-term and long-term debt securities issued by corporate businesses or local authorities. Some capital gains may also be achieved if the fixed interest securities increase in market value. There is also the potential for capital losses to be incurred if the fixed interest securities decrease in market value. Fixed interest is higher risk than cash because of the longer-term commitment of funds, but higher returns than those from cash are generally expected. Fixed interest assets can be sourced locally or from overseas. Growth assets Returns from growth assets are primarily sourced from capital gains, but may also comprise of income from rentals or dividends received. Growth assets are generally considered to be higher risk than income assets with the potential for capital losses being greater than with income assets. Growth assets include: Commercial property Real estate used for business purposes and broadly classified as retail, industrial, or office and general. Income is received from commercial tenant rentals and capital gain may arise from increases in the market value of the property. There is also the potential for capital losses if the market value of the properties declines. Commercial property is higher risk than cash or fixed interest, but is generally expected to provide better longer-term returns. Equities Units of ownership (shares, or equity) in companies that are usually traded on share markets both locally and overseas. Capital gains may be generated through equities when they increase in market value. In addition some income may also be received from dividend payments. There is also the potential for capital losses if equities decrease in market value. Equities have higher risk than cash, fixed interest or commercial property, and can fluctuate significantly in market value, but are generally expected to provide greater returns over the longer term. Alternative investments Alternative investments refer to a broad range of assets that do not fall within the main asset classes referred to above. Alternative investments can be based on publicly traded securities like shares and bonds (which include hedge funds, absolute return funds and commodity investments) or private securities (which can include venture capital and private equity). Alternative investments are diverse, with generally higher risk and greater potential return characteristics than the main asset classes. Derivatives Exposure to various asset classes can be gained directly (by buying the asset), indirectly (by investing in other funds which hold the asset) or artificially (by purchasing a derivative, which has a price that is derived from the price of the underlying asset, such as a share, bond or currency). Examples of derivatives include swaps, warrants, structured notes, futures contracts, options, forward rate 12 KiwiSaver Scheme

For example, foreign currency may be hedged to reduce the New Zealand dollar exposure of an asset held in a foreign currency. Diversification A diversified investment portfolio is one that invests in two or more different asset classes together. Diversification can also be geographic, in that New Zealand assets are combined with overseas investments. A diversified portfolio is described as conservative if it holds significantly more income assets (cash, fixed interest) than growth assets (commercial property, shares, alternative investments), and growth if it contains significantly more growth assets than income assets. Conservative portfolios aim for lower risk and return, whereas growth portfolios aim for higher risk and return. The proportions in which the various asset classes are held in combination will influence overall investment returns. If one of the asset classes underperforms, the others may compensate, helping to make the variations in total investment returns less extreme over time. KiwiSaver Scheme 13

14 Your investment options We provide a choice of investment options for you. If you are a Default Member If you have been automatically enrolled in the Scheme by Inland Revenue you are a default member (Default Member) and your contributions will be invested exclusively in the Cash Enhanced Fund (the Default Fund).

All members can build their own investment strategy by choosing to invest in one or more of five Funds available in the Scheme. The diagrams show details for each Fund including their respective long term asset allocations as at the date of this investment statement. Those asset allocations may change over time. Please refer to for current information. Not sure what Fund(s) to choose?

In exchange, they are prepared to accept the likelihood of lower returns. 36.5% 5.0% 6.0% 9.0% 12.5% 31.0% New Zealand Cash 5.0% New Zealand Fixed Interest 6.0% International Fixed Interest 9.0% New Zealand Property 12.5% Trans-Tasman Shares 31.0% International Shares 36.5% Growth Fund Risk/return profile: Investment type: Medium-high Growth Diversified Fund Investment objective: To provide returns with higher long-term capital appreciation, but with higher volatility than the Balanced Fund. Investment policy: To invest in other managed funds that provide exposure to a range of growth assets (property and trans tasman and international shares) and income assets (fixed interest and cash) with a greater focus on growth assets. At our discretion the Growth Fund may also invest in alternative assets and/or derivatives. Who is the Fund suitable for? The Growth Fund is designed for a long-term investor who wants good growth potential and is willing to accept a fair amount of positive and negative fluctuations in the short term in anticipation of achieving high returns in the long-term. This type of investor also has time to wait for the value of their investment to recover if it goes down. 16 KiwiSaver Scheme

Who is the Fund suitable for? The Equity Fund is designed for a long-term investor who is willing to accept positive and negative fluctuations in the short term in anticipation of achieving higher returns in the long-term. It is designed for an investor who has time to wait for the value of their investment to recover if it goes down and who wants to invest solely in shares. KiwiSaver Scheme 17

18 Which investment strategy is best for me? One of the most important decisions to make when joining KiwiSaver is how you want your savings to be invested. You might not have the skills or experience to manage investments (that s what we do for you) but it is in your best interests to tell us which investment strategy you prefer so that we can manage your savings appropriately. We understand that every investor has different investment goals (and timeframes in which to achieve these) and that investors have varying appetites for risk. We have developed our Scheme to allow you to select the investment strategy that you consider meets your needs. Important consideration when choosing your investment strategy Before choosing your investment strategy (a carefully designed investment mix to fit a specific investor profile), it is important that you think about: Your investment timeframe (how long you will be saving before you take out money for your first home or retirement); and Your risk tolerance (how comfortable you are with the value of your savings fluctuating). Investment Tip The longer your investment timeframe, the more you may be comfortable with an investment strategy that consists of more growth assets. We think growth assets are important, as most KiwiSaver members have a long time to save for their retirement. Historically, investing in growth assets has produced better long term investment returns than other asset classes, minimising the impact of inflation over time. However, if you are nearing retirement or saving for your first home, you may want to have a more conservative investment approach. Income assets such as cash and fixed interest typically produce more stable returns in the short term. Don t fret! You re not locked into an investment strategy for life. If your situation or thinking changes you can change your investment strategy at no cost. This questionnaire is a guide only, containing information of a general nature. It is not personalised financial advice and does not take into account your particular situation or goals. To help decide the investment strategy that you consider is best for you, simply answer the questions below. If you require any assistance, contact us on Section 1: Your Investment Timeframe Question 1: How many years will you be saving before you take out money for your first home or for your retirement? Investment Timeframe: Section 2: Your Risk Tolerance Circle each answer and note the total score for this section at the end. year/s Question 2: Which of the following best describes your attitude to investment risk? Score I am a very low risk taker 1 I am a low risk taker 2 I am an average risk taker 3 I am a high risk taker 4 I am a very high risk taker 5 Question 3: Which of the following statements best describes your understanding of the financial markets and investments? I am only familiar with bank term deposits and savings accounts I know a little about investments outside bank term deposits and savings accounts but not enough to make an informed decision on how to invest I understand different types of investments have different levels of risk and the degree of risk is relevant to the possibility of fluctuation in value I understand all types of investments (including shares and property) and understand the various influences on their returns I am very experienced with all types of investments and consider myself well educated when it comes to risk versus reward and the opportunities available Score 1 Question 4: I am willing to accept more risk to possibly achieve higher returns. Strongly disagree Score 1 Disagree 2 Neutral 3 Agree 4 Strongly agree KiwiSaver Scheme

19 Question 5: If the value of my investment fluctuated up or down more than 10% over a short time frame it would make me very nervous. Strongly agree 1 Agree 2 Neutral 3 Disagree 4 Strongly disagree 5 Question 6: I am willing to experience the ups and downs (fluctuations) of the market for the potential of greater returns over the long term. Score Score Strongly disagree 1 Disagree 2 Neutral 3 Agree 4 Strongly agree 5 Question 8: If I consider current interest rates, the overall level of return that I reasonably expect to achieve from my investments over the period I wish to invest is: Term deposit returns with minimal risk of losing 1 any capital 4-6% 2 5-7% 3 7-9% 4 Over 9% 5 Question 9: After I have made a significant financial decision, I normally feel Score Score Very concerned 1 Concerned 2 A little uneasy 3 Content I have made the right decision 4 Optimistic that the decision I have made will 5 provide substantial benefits Question 7: My main concern is protection of my capital. Keeping my money protected is more important than earning higher returns. Score Strongly agree 1 Agree 2 Neutral 3 Disagree 4 Strongly disagree 5 Add your scores together for questions 2 to 9 and see the following page for details. Risk Tolerance Score: How did you score? The table below uses your scores from the questionnaire. To determine your investment strategy, find your Investment Timeframe across the top (using your score from Section 1) and your Risk Tolerance Score along the left side (using your score from Section 2). Where they intersect is your suggested investment strategy. Descriptions of each investment strategy are listed on the next page. You should read the descriptions to ensure you are comfortable with your investment strategy. Your Risk Tolerance Score Your Investment Timeframe (years) < Preservation Conservative* Conservative Balanced Balanced Balanced Growth Growth Equity * If you have been allocated to the KiwiSaver Scheme by Inland Revenue and suit a Conservative investment strategy, we recommend that you remain in the Cash Enhanced Fund (default fund) in which you are currently invested. The scores are designed to provide an indication only of what might be the most suitable investment strategy for you. Before making a choice, you should consider all factors relevant to your decision. You are not limited to these six options you can build your own investment strategy by choosing a mix of Funds in any proportions you wish. Remember that you are responsible for choosing an investment strategy neither FMF, Fisher Funds or the Trustee is responsible for the choice you make. KiwiSaver Scheme 19

Those asset allocations may change over time. KiwiSaver Scheme 21

22 Asset classes and allocations The Funds may gain exposure to the asset classes described on page 12 directly (by buying the asset), indirectly (by investing in other managed funds which hold the asset) or artificially (by purchasing derivatives). As at the date of this investment statement, the Funds gain investment exposure to international fixed interest investments as follows: Cash Enhanced Fund, Conservative Fund and Growth Fund by investment in underlying funds which hold a segregated pool of assets of which Pacific Investment Management Company LLC ( PIMCO ) is the investment manager as well as a further segregated pool of assets of which Wellington International Management Company Pte Ltd ( Wellington ) is the investment manager. Balanced Fund via investment in an underlying fund which invests in the PIMCO Cayman Global Bond (NZD-Hedged) Fund, a managed fund of which PIMCO is the investment manager, and a segregated pool of assets of which Wellington is the investment manager. As at the date of this investment statement, PIMCO undertakes foreign currency hedging on the international fixed interest investments it manages in respect of the Cash Enhanced Fund, Conservative Fund, Balanced Fund and Growth Fund, however this may change in the future. As at the date of this investment statement, investment exposure to emerging market shares for the Cash Enhanced Fund, Conservative Fund, Balanced Fund, Growth Fund, and Equity Fund is gained via investment in an underlying fund which invests in the PFS Somerset Emerging Markets Dividend Growth Fund, a managed fund of which Somerset Capital Management LLP is the investment manager. We may invest in other managed funds and use other underlying investment managers, and changes may be made without notice to you. For more information please visit or contact us on While the asset allocations of each Fund will, over the long-term, target the levels for the Funds as shown in the diagrams on pages 15 to 17, the actual asset allocations will vary from time to time. Such variations may be due to market movements or due to us (or the manager of the underlying funds) varying the allocations away from the target levels for a variety of reasons, including managing risk, increasing potential returns or managing cashflow requirements. Any variation away from the target asset allocation levels must remain within a permitted range. The current registered prospectus describes the approved asset classes and permitted allocation ranges for each Fund. Alternative investments The Cash Enhanced Fund, the Conservative Fund, the Balanced Fund and the Growth Fund may also have exposure, either directly or indirectly, to alternative investments from time to time. While the target asset allocation level for alternative investments for each of these Funds is currently 0%, the Cash Enhanced Fund, the Conservative Fund and the Balanced Fund may each invest up to 10% of their value and the Growth Fund may invest up to 15% of its value in alternative assets. Alternative investments are discussed further on page KiwiSaver Scheme

23 Join now Joining the Scheme is easy. All you need to do is read this investment statement, fill in the forms at the back and send them to us. We ll do the rest. If you have been allocated to the Scheme as part of the government s automatic KiwiSaver enrolment process, you do not need to do anything. Hedging of foreign currency The Cash Enhanced, Conservative, Balanced, Growth and Equity Funds all invest in asset classes that are denominated in foreign currencies. To reduce the risk of adverse currency fluctuations, foreign currency hedging (taking an offsetting position) is undertaken. International fixed interest assets (bonds) are usually fully offset against the New Zealand dollar. International shares may be offset to some degree against the New Zealand dollar, however we or the manager of the relevant underlying fund may vary the actual hedging levels at times with the aim of increasing potential returns. Actual hedging levels may also vary due to the changing values of the international assets. Currency hedging may be undertaken by the Fund or the underlying funds. We recommend that you obtain personalised advice from an Authorised Financial Adviser before making a decision to invest or to change your investment strategy in the Scheme. Check your balance at any time You have access to our website for members of the Scheme. The site is free for you to use and as a member it also gives you 24-hour, password-protected access to your personal investment information.

Changing your investments You can change or switch Fund(s) at any time (see page 35 Can the investment be altered? ). You can also change where your future contributions are allocated. It is recommended that you discuss any changes with your financial adviser.
