Fees, fund size, yield and returns are from the ASX Investment Products report as at 30 September 2026. Returns are total returns (distributions reinvested) after fees and before tax; 3, 5 and 10 year figures are a year, on average, and the chart uses the report’s monthly returns, which start in January 2017. Companies and countries come from the fund manager’s published holdings. Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future performance.
