Lower risk
Higher risk
The risk indicator is rated from 1 (low) to 7 (high). The rating reflects how much the value of the relevant fund’s assets goes up and down (volatility). A higher risk generally means higher potential returns over time, but more ups and downs along the way.
This fund started on 1 May 2026 and has no actual returns data. We’ve calculated the risk indicator using market index returns data for periods before that date, and actual fund returns data for the remainder of the five year period to 31 March 2026. Using market index returns data may make the risk indicator a less reliable indicator of how much fund values might go up and down in the future. See more information about the risks of investing in the Product Disclosure Statement.
