What happened this quarter (3 months to 30 September 2018)     

  • Performance continues to benefit from the attractive interest rates available on bank term deposits, which make up around 40% of the fund.
  • Also of benefit was the fund’s allocation to Floating Rate Notes, which offer relatively attractive yields without compromising the fund’s liquidity.
  • The Reserve Bank of New Zealand (RBNZ) left the Official Cash Rate (OCR) unchanged at a record low of 1.75% throughout the quarter. In fact, it has pushed out the timing of its next rate rise to late in 2020, while it reiterated its next move could be either up or down.
