Key Summary

MOAT

BEAR

Strategy

The key objective of the MOAT fund is to track the performance of the Morningstar Wide Moat Focus NR AUD Index before considering any fees, expenses, and taxes.

BEAR.AX was created on 2012-07-06 by BetaShares. The fund's investment portfolio concentrates primarily on large cap equity. BEAR.AX seeks to generate returns that are negatively correlated to the returns of the Australian sharemarket. The Fund expects to generate a positive return when the S&P/ASX Accumulation 200 Index falls (and a negative return when the index rises).
