Manager's Commentary
Foreign currency exposures associated with international fixed interest are hedged to the New Zealand dollar. We actively manage the fund’s currency exposures associated with international and Australian equities. As at 31 August 2020, these exposures represented 16.09% of the value of the fund. After allowing for foreign currency hedges in place, approximately 11.98% of the value of the fund was unhedged and exposed to foreign currency risk.
The next Manager’s commentary will be included in the September Performance Summary (available October 2020).
