    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 .
