What it leaves out

No Australian companies, no emerging markets, no smaller overseas companies and no bonds.

Fees, yields and returns are from the ASX Investment Products report as at 30 September 2026. The 5 year return is a yearly average, after fees and before tax, blended by your shares. Holdings come from each fund manager’s published holdings. “Already own” means the share of the new ETF’s money in companies at least one of your ETFs holds. Suggested ETFs and shares are common starting points, not a recommendation for you. Your mix is kept in the page address only. Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future performance.

General information only, not financial advice. These figures are estimates from the numbers you enter and the data shown. They don’t consider your personal circumstances. Check with the ATO, the fund’s own documents or a licensed adviser before acting on them.
