WAYS TO INVEST

Active ETFs

UNDERSTANDING ACTIVE ETFS

Active ETFs at Platinum

Investors preferring the structure of managed funds but favouring the convenience of placing trades through the ASX or an online broker may consider the Platinum International Fund Active ETF (ASX: PIXX) and the Platinum Asia Fund Complex ETF (ASX: PAXX).


Known as Active ETFs (Active Exchange Traded Funds), these offer investors the advantage of knowing the fund’s intra-day indicative NAV per unit before placing a trade. The funds trade, clear and settle in the same way as do shares in ASX-listed companies, and therefore can be conveniently accessed through an online broker.

Continuous Disclosure

Effective 20 April 2026, Platinum appointed Morgan Stanley & Co. International plc (“Morgan Stanley”) as the global custodian for the Platinum Asia Fund (the Underlying Fund of the Platinum Asia Fund Complex ETF). Platinum intends to also appoint Goldman Sachs International (“GSI”) and UBS Nominees Pty Ltd (“UBS”) as additional global custodians for the Platinum Asia Fund, at a later date. Effective 20 April 2026, Platinum appointed Apex Fund Services Pty Ltd (“Apex”) as the global custodian of the Platinum Asia Fund Complex ETF, Platinum International Fund Active ETF and Platinum International Fund (the Underlying Fund of the Platinum International Fund Active ETF). The Northern Trust Company (“Northern Trust”) will remain the global custodian of the Platinum International Fund and the Platinum Asia Fund for any securities held in India until such time as the relevant accounts have been opened with Morgan Stanley, GSI, UBS and/or Apex (as applicable).
