Loftus Peak Global Disruption Fund
(Managed Fund) (ASX: LPGD)
Fund Overview
Loftus Peak is a global fund manager with a focus on investment in listed disruptive businesses. We have extensive experience and bring significant discipline to the process. Our Australian Securities Exchange listed Fund (ASX code: LPGD) comprises some of the best and fastest-growing companies in the world – companies that we believe are driving change across all industries globally, constructed on the basis of strict criteria and included at carefully determined valuations. Holdings include large capitalisation names like Microsoft and Google (Alphabet) as well as many others that we expect to be household names in the future, such as Advanced Micro Devices and Qualcomm. This approach to investment across a wide range of global industries lowers the concentration risk inherent in the typical Australian portfolio, with its heavy skew toward banks, resources and the Australian dollar.

Understanding disruption and its impact on business globally is important now more than ever. This video will give you an insight into how Loftus Peak invests.

FAQ

The Loftus Peak Global Disruption Fund is a Registered Managed Investment Scheme with units also live quoted as an active ETF on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX).

Investors can enter and exit the fund by either;

  • a) submitting the relevant form to the Responsible entity (via the Apex Fund Services (formerly Mainstream Funds Services), the Unit Registry), or
  • b) transacting via their stockbroker on the ASX.

The investor method of transaction is dependent upon whether their units are held under a HIN or SRN.

A HIN is a Holder Identification Number for a Broker Sponsored holding. It is a unique number used to link all your holdings, stocks, shares, and not specific to just Loftus Peak.

A HIN is 11 characters long. It starts with an ‘X’ followed by 10 digits. Example: X0001235898.

An SRN is a Shareholder Reference Number for Issuer Sponsored holdings. An SRN is issued by Apex Fund Services (formerly Mainstream Funds Services) and is your unique identifier in the Loftus Peak Global Disruption Fund.

An SRN issued by Apex Fund Services (formerly Mainstream Funds Services) is 11 characters long. It starts with an ‘I’ followed by 10 digits. Example: I0098511470. Your SRN will be stated on your first confirmation statement and partly masked for subsequent statements.

No, investors can simply choose whether they transact their units directly with the Responsible Entity via the Unit Registry or through the ASX.

Yes. However, you will need to undertake a conversion step in each case.

If your Units are held with a HIN, then to sell them via the Unit Registry you will need to ask your Broker to change your HIN holding to an SRN holding.

Once converted to SRN, to effect the sale of Units, you should then submit a completed withdrawal form to Unit Registry. You will need to provide relevant identification documents if you haven’t done so already.

If your Units are under an SRN and you wish to sell on the ASX, you will need to ask your stockbroker to convert your SRN holding to a HIN holding. You can then instruct your stockbroker to sell the Units.

Investors have the choice whether they purchase units by:

  1. Applying for Units to the Responsible Entity with an Application Form - a minimum investment of $5,000 applies to all investors who choose this method
  2. Purchasing Units on the ASX via their stockbroker - the minimum trade size will be determined by their stockbroker.

The daily unit price reflects the Net Asset Value (NAV) at the end of the trading day.

As an active ETF, the Fund will publish an indicative NAV (“iNAV”) which reflects the real time movements in stock markets and currencies during the ASX Trading Day and, for securities not trading during the ASX Trading Day, listed proxy instruments. The iNAV represents the best estimate of the value per unit in the Fund throughout the trading day. The iNAV calculation is performed by Solactive AG and then provided to Macquarie Securities (Australia) Limited, the market maker which acts as an agent of the Fund.

The full list of the Fund's holdings are released to the ASX quarterly with a two month lag. There are also references to a number of current holdings in the Fund's Monthly Update.

You can now make additional investments to the Loftus Peak Global Disruption Fund by using BPAY®

To facilitate the use of this service you will need to enter the Loftus Peak BPAY® Biller Code 349845 along with your unique Customer Reference Number (CRN) which can be found when you log into your Apex Registry portal here.
