managed investment scheme which offers investors an
opportunity to invest in a variety of major asset sectors .

Information Memorandum are listed below:
Structured Bond .
Each Strategy is a separate class of units in the Fund .
Chifley is responsible for selecting and managing the
investment managers under each of the Strategies . Chifley
employs a rigorous selection process to construct our
blend of investment managers . We compare investment
managers' styles, processes, performance histories
and then offer our selection of best of breed investment
managers in each Strategy . We review selected managers
on an ongoing basis .
The Fund generally adheres to the guiding principle that
several carefully selected investment managers will,
over any reasonable period, produce a better result,
more consistently and with lower volatility, than a single
manager . Chifley is part of the FuturePlus Group which
provides investment management, administration and
advice services in relation to assets totalling approximately
$11 billion . Other entities in the group include FuturePlus
Financial Services Pty Limited, the Local Government
Superannuation Scheme (LGSS), the Energy Industries

1 November 2002 . As at the date of this Information
Memorandum, the Fund has approximately $1.3 billion
in assets .

Investment approach
Each Strategy invests in a range of investments consistent
with the Investment Objectives of that Strategy . The
performance benchmark for each Strategy (Benchmark) is
listed in the Key Features table on page 4 in the CHIF Information Memorandum. The Investment
Objective of each Strategy is to provide an investment
return, before ongoing fees (Investment Return), relative to
the nominated Benchmark return over an investment time
frame, as detailed in the Key Features table .
In respect of all of our Strategies, our investment
managers may consider social, ethical and environmental
considerations or labour standards of those companies
from time to time, where these may materially impact on
the value of the investment or the performance objectives
of the Strategy .
Chifley does not take labour standards, environmental,
social or ethical considerations into account in the
selection, retention or termination of the Fund's
investments and/or investment managers .
