UNDERSTANDING MANAGED FUNDS

Managed Funds at Platinum

Our products under the Platinum Trust brand comprise eight unlisted Australian-registered managed funds, as well as the Platinum Global Transition Fund, offering a suite of different global, regional and sector strategies, and providing investors with exposure to diversified portfolios of companies worldwide. 

Investors buy and sell units at the per-unit net asset value (NAV) of the fund (subject to the applicable buy/sell spread), not at a market price driven by supply and demand.

C Class and P Class units refer to the two different fee options available for the Fund.
C Class is our Standard Fee Option of 1.35% per annum of a Fund's NAV.
P Class is our Performance Fee option of 1.1% per annum of a Fund's NAV plus a performance fee of 15% of the amount (after the deduction of investment management fees and excluding any performance fees) by which the Fund's return exceeds its hurdle return. Fees are accrued within the Funds' daily unit prices.  
It is important that you understand the fees and costs; a full explanation can be found in the /Fees and Other Costs/ section of the Funds’ latest Product Disclosure Statement https://www.platinum.com.au/media/Platinum/Default/pt_pds.pdf.
Where an agent is acting as the investor’s financial adviser, we may not send any PDS/Supplementary PDS/Periodic Statement to that agent instead of to the investor. The investor must be provided with this information.
Specifically:
PDS and Supplementary PDS
s1015C(1) makes it clear that these documents must be provided to the investor or their agent. However, the section 1015C(3) expressly excludes from the meaning of agent someone acting as the person’s agent as an AFSL holder or an authorised representative of an AFSL holder i.e. a financial advisor. So, in this case the financial adviser would be an excluded agent for the purposes of s1015C(1) and therefore any PDS or Supplementary PDS cannot be provided solely to the financial adviser.  
Periodic Statements
s1017D(1) requires us to provide the statement to the person that acquired the units i.e. the holder. S1017D(6) then states that a periodic statement must be given in one of the following ways:
(a)  in writing; or
(b)  electronically; or
(c)  in a way specified in the regulations.
Reg 7.9.75A (2) then states that for paragraph 1017D(6)(c), the following are ways of giving a periodic statement to a holder:
(a)  making the periodic statement available to the holder in any way agreed to by the holder;
(b)  making the periodic statement available to the holder's agent in any way agreed to by the agent.
Reg 7.9.75A (5) then states that for the purposes of this regulation, a notification, a periodic statement or information may be given or sent to a person's agent only if the agent is not acting as the person's agent in one of the capacities mentioned in subsection 1015C(3) of the Act i.e. as a financial advisor.

^As at 30 September 2024. In the case of the Platinum Trust Funds, the funds under management are inclusive of both C Class and P Class.
*Fund returns are annualised, are calculated using the net asset value per unit (which does not include the buy/sell spread) of C Class (standard fee option) of the fund, and represent the combined income and capital returns of C Class over the period from its inception date (as specified) to 30 September 2024. Returns are net of accrued fees and costs, are pre-tax, and assume the reinvestment of distributions. The investment returns shown are historical and no warranty can be given for future performance. Historical performance is not a reliable indicator of future performance. Source: Platinum Investment Management Limited.
