Model Share Portfolios

What are Model Share Portfolios?

A Model Share Portfolio is like having your own managed fund but with you having complete control over the underlying investments, the portfolio size and taxation issues. Our Model Share Portfolios have a flat non asset based fee structure, which means that your fees remain the same irrespective of how much you invest and the value of your portfolio. There are three different Model Share Portfolios.

Once set up, you will receive ongoing recommendations by email whenever changes are required. It is then up to you to authorise changes to your share portfolio.

Choose from the following:

Income Portfolio
Designed for investors who desire above average market income yields, primarily through fully franked dividends. Accordingly any capital gains from this portfolio may be modest. Due to its income criteria, this portfolio will retain a bias to the financial sector.

Balanced Portfolio
Designed for investors who seek a portfolio of stocks that provide a combination of income and capital growth. The overall portfolio dividend yield will be close to the market average.

Growth Portfolio
Designed for investors who seek capital growth rather than income and therefore this portfolio will have an overall dividend yield lower than the market average. Growth stocks usually trade at premiums to the overall equity market and may therefore have a higher than average risk profile.

Each of the share portfolios will contain 10-12 stocks and thereby should be seen as "concentrated portfolios" that focus on stock picking. The stocks are selected from the S&P/ASX 300. This implies that each stock has reasonable liquidity with a market capitalisation of at least $400m.
