TAX EFFICIENCY OF UNIT TRUSTS

Protecting the growth of your wealth

Unit trusts offer you a more tax-efficient way to invest. When our fund managers buy or sell securities within your portfolio, this doesn’t trigger a tax event. You’ll only be liable for capital gains tax if you choose to sell your units.

You may still receive distributions like dividends or interest – local dividends would be subject to dividends tax and other distribution types would be subject to income tax.

Protecting the growth of your wealth

STEWARDSHIP AND VOTING

Guiding your investments with accountability

With your investments comes our responsibility to oversee them. In line with our discretionary investment mandates, we exercise voting rights in respect of our segregated and unitised portfolio holdings. This responsibility requires us to actively monitor investments, engage with company management and, when necessary, raise resolutions or call meetings. Every vote we cast is made on your behalf, with a clear focus on protecting and growing your wealth.

FAQs

Frequently asked questions

Find out more about unit trusts by browsing our frequently asked questions.

Are there any initial investment fees or exit fees?
Chevron Down

There are no initial fees or exit penalties applicable to our range of funds. The fund fees are limited to the annual management fee only because we remain sensitive to the impact that fees can have on performance over time.

Do unit trusts pay dividends?
Chevron Down

Yes, unit trusts pay dividends to unit holders according to the performance of underlying assets and the mandate of the fund. Dividends may either be reinvested or paid out monthly, quarterly, bi-annually or annually.

What is Effective Annual Cost (EAC)?
Chevron Down

The Effective Annual Cost (EAC) is a measure which enables you to compare charges and their impact on investment returns across different financial products. Learn more here.

Is my capital guaranteed?
Chevron Down

Your investment will be exposed to market movements and is therefore not guaranteed. Past performance is no guarantee of future performance.

Are unit trusts tax free?
Chevron Down

Only unit trusts housed within a tax-free account are classified as tax free unit trusts. A tax free unit trust investment doesn't attract interest, capital gains or dividends tax. These are available to SA residents only and contributions are capped at R46,000 per year with a lifetime limit of R500,000.
