Short Term Fixed Interest Trust

Inception Date
8 June 1999

The objective of the Short Term Fixed Interest Trust is to provide a higher gross return than could be achieved by investing solely in short-term money market securities. The Trust is designed to provide liquidity and dampen overall portfolio volatility.

The Trust invests in high credit quality, Australian dollar denominated fixed interest and money market securities, with a maximum weighted average maturity of 1 year and maximum maturity of 2 years for individual securities. The Trust uses a variable maturity approach that involves no interest rate forecasting. This approach seeks to identify the optimal maturity ranges and extend maturities when the expected returns are significantly higher for longer-term securities.

This is only a summary of the Trust. For a full description, please consult the Dimensional Australian Resident Trusts Product Disclosure Statement.
