Full fund details
- Objective
- Seeks capital appreciation by participating in positive returns of the Underlying ETF up to an upside cap and providing buffered returns against losses exceeding 10% during the Outcome Period.
- Strategy
- Invests primarily in the Underlying ETF to achieve capital appreciation and buffered returns. The Fund seeks to provide positive returns regardless of whether the Underlying ETF increases or decreases in value during the Outcome Period, subject to an upside cap and a buffer against losses exceeding 10%. If the Underlying ETF appreciates, the Fund provides returns up to the upside cap; if it declines by 10% or less, the Fund matches the absolute value of losses. If losses exceed 10%, the Fund provides returns 10% less than those losses.

Structural notes on how this fund behaves. Read our guide on the 6 warning signs.
Buffer ETF — downside protection at a cost
Defined-outcome funds cap upside (typically 8–20%) in exchange for partial downside protection (9–30%), priced via options. Fees are materially higher than the underlying index (often 0.70%+ vs 0.03–0.10%). For most pre-retirees, a simple stock/bond mix achieves similar downside behaviour at a fraction of the cost.
