How your Portfolio works
Platform cash accountGenerally, your Platform cash account will be used for thepurposes of settling all transactions in relation to your Portfolio,including:– settling transactions relating to the assets held as part of
your Portfolio when it is rebalanced. This includes:– receivingnetproceeds fromadisposal of assets (disposal
proceeds), and reinvesting those amounts to acquireother assets, and
– making additional investments in circumstanceswherea rebalance involves a disposal of certain assets and acorresponding acquisition of substitute assets at thesame time, and market movements result in theproceeds from the asset disposal being less than thecosts of the asset acquisition (the amount of theadditional investment fromyour Platformcashaccountin these circumstances will be equal to the differencebetween the relevant disposal proceeds andacquisitioncosts)
– receiving income from underlying assets and reinvestingthese amounts (except in relation to those managedportfolios where such amounts are not reinvested – seethemanaged portfolio menu for details)
– pay any fees, expenses, taxes and or charges in relation toyour investment in MyNorth Managed Portfolios.
You provide the Platform Operator with standing instructions(as set out in theNorthPlatformaccountdetails – authorisationforms) to facilitate your investment in MyNorth ManagedPortfolios and use your Platform cash account in this way, andyou agree not to vary those instructions.
PerformanceAmanaged portfolio is a notional portfolio of assets that ismanagedaccording to aparticular investment objective.Whenyou invest in MyNorth Managed Portfolios and select aparticularmanagedportfolio, your Portfolio is established, andactual assets are acquired in proportions thatmatch (as closelyas practicable) the composition and asset allocation of themanaged portfolio.
The asset allocation of your Portfolio may differ from thenotional performance and asset allocation of the managedportfolio youhave selected.Not all investorswhohave selectedthe samemanaged portfolio will hold the same assets or thesame weights in those assets in their respective Portfolio.
Reasons for this variance between the asset allocation of yourPortfolio and that of the correspondingmanagedportfoliomayinclude (but are not limited to):– the timing of your investment in connection with the
relevant managed portfolio– cashflow (to and from) your Portfolio, including
contributions andwithdrawals youmake, and income thatmay be received in connection with the underlying assetsheld as part of your Portfolio
– differences in timing of processing instructions and thecorresponding price received for buy and sell transactions
– our decisions relating to the rebalancing of your Portfolio– wemaydecidenot to process a tradeor initiate a rebalance
to minimise small or inefficient trades, or if the rebalanceis not required because the difference between the assetallocation of your Portfolio and the asset allocation of therelevant managed portfolio is within the tolerance rangethat we have determined.
Accordingly, your Portfolio’s performance may differ from theperformance of the particular managed portfolio you haveselected.
The Platform Operator will report on your Portfolio's actualperformancevia reportsaccessible throughyourNorthPlatformaccount. In addition, we will report on the performance in themanaged portfolio quarterly updates also available on NorthOnline.
8
Transacting on your PortfolioAfter receiving your instructions, your financial adviser instructsyour PlatformOperator to perform transactions on your behalfin relation to assets in your North Platform account, includingyour investment into the MyNorth Managed Portfolios. Thesetransactions may include:– investing in a particular managed portfolio– making additional investments into your Portfolio– switching between managed portfolios– making in specie transfers of assets into your Portfolio
from your North Platform account– withdrawing (partial or full) assets from your Portfolio
Your financial adviser can also assist you in generating andviewing reports, communications and statements online. SeeHowwe keep you informed on your Portfolio on page 13 ofthis document for information about the kinds of reports thatcan be generated.
Any transactions made on your Portfolio will generally beconfirmed toyou throughNorthOnline (via yourNorthPlatformreports).
Therewill be timeswhenyour investment instructionsprovidedto the Platform Operator, and the resulting instructions thatthe Platform Operator provides to us, may not be processed orcould be delayed. This could be due to instructions beingunclear, invalid, incomplete, contrary to applicable law orunable to be implemented due tomarket disruptions. If this isthe case, thePlatformOperatorwill notify your financial adviserand seek further instructions.
Note: Your financial adviser only provides investmentinstructions in relation to your investment into MyNorthManaged Portfolios, not in relation to the underlying assetswithin a managed portfolio you have selected. Themanagement of the underlying assets within a managedportfolio is performed by us andmay be based on advice fromthe investment manager(s) that we appoint.
Investing in MyNorth Managed PortfoliosInitial investments into your Portfolio are subject tominimumamounts, which differ depending on the managed portfolioyou choose. These minimum amounts are specified in themanaged portfolio profiles included in themanaged portfoliomenu.
You can make additional investments to your Portfolio usingcash from your Platform cash account at any time, subject tothe rules of the relevantNorth Platform throughwhich you areaccessing MyNorth Managed Portfolios.
Your instructions to invest inMyNorthManaged Portfolioswillbeacteduponafter theyare received fromyour financial adviserby the PlatformOperator. Generally, the PlatformOperatorwillprocess the transaction on the same business day as theinstructions are received.
Once your Portfolio has been established, underlying assets ofthe same kind and in the same proportion as the assets in themanaged portfolio you have selectedwill be acquired andheldin your Portfolio. It can take time to set up your Portfolio withthese underlying assets if they aremanaged funds. The timetaken to process any request and the price at which units in amanaged fund will be traded will vary.
Before making an initial or additional investment in yourPortfolio, it is essential that you read and understand themanaged portfolio profiles, which provide youwith importantinformation about the managed portfolios, such as their keyfeatures and risks.
The managed portfolio profiles for the available managedportfolios are set out in themanaged portfolio menu.
9
Rebalancing your PortfolioEach availablemanaged portfolio ismanaged to a target assetallocation. This means the amount you invest will be used topurchase assets of the same kind and in the same proportionas the underlying assets in the relevant managed portfoliooption that you have selected.
Over a period of time, your Portfolio may deviate away fromthe target asset allocation of the managed portfolio due tomarket movements.
On a periodic basis, we will rebalance your Portfolio back (asclosely as practicable) to the original target asset allocation.
Tolerance rangesmayapply to theunderlyingassetsheldwithina managed portfolio. Setting tolerance ranges has the benefitof minimising costs by eliminating small inefficient trading inthe underlying asset holdings. Your Portfolio’s assets will becompared to the target asset allocation and if one or more ofyourholdings arewithin the set tolerance range, theseholdingsmay not be rebalanced.
If an underlying asset becomes illiquid or trading in that assetis suspended, we can exclude this underlying asset from themanaged portfolio and from further rebalances of yourPortfolio. If this occurs,wewill generally substitute theexcludedassetwith another asset that is consistentwith the investmentobjective and strategy of the relevant managed portfolio.
The excluded asset may be transferred in specie out of yourPortfolio to yourNorthPlatformaccount, andwill bedealtwithaccording to the rules of the relevant North Platform withrespect to the management of such assets. If the excludedasset generates income, this will be paid to your Platform cashaccount.
Income fromMyNorth Managed PortfoliosWhere income is derived from the underlying assets withinyour Portfolio, that income will either be:– paid into your Platform cash account as a partial
withdrawal from your Portfolio and subsequentlyreinvested back into your Portfolio (as per the strategy ofthe managed portfolio) in accordance with your standingdirections to the Platform Operator, or
– paid into your Platform account as a partial withdrawalfrom your Portfolio (as per the strategy of your managedportfolio) and not reinvested back into your Portfolio.
See themanaged portfoliomenu for information on howeachmanaged portfolio treats income.
How to withdrawWithdrawal requests (partial and full) from your Portfolio cangenerally be made at any time.
After we accept a partial withdrawal request, we willproportionally sell down theunderlying assets in your Portfolioand the net proceeds from the sale will be transferred to yourPlatform cash account.
Withdrawals fromyour Portfolio arenormally processedwithin21 days of us receiving all of the necessary information.
Theremay be exceptions to this time framewhich include (butare not limited to):– particular managed funds that have redemption
restrictions that may prevent us from satisfying thewithdrawal request within this period
– the time taken by fund managers to complete processingof sale transactions
– an existing buy or sell instruction has not been confirmed– illiquid managed funds may take longer to process and
thus prevent us from satisfying the withdrawal request– in the unlikely event that MyNorth Managed Portfolios
becomes illiquid,wewill only beable to allowwithdrawalsas permitted by the Corporations Act.
If you make a request to withdraw between 90% and 100% ofthe total asset value of your Portfolio, we may treat this as arequest for a full withdrawal.
If you decide tomake a partial or full withdrawal, net proceedsfromthe salewill be transferred to your Platformcashaccount,or the assets held in your Portfoliomay be transferred in specieto your Platform account.
In some circumstances, we may (at our discretion) initiate afull or partial withdrawal in connection with your Portfolio. Ifthis occurs, then (after the payment of any fees and costs)assets held as part of your Portfoliowill generally be transferredto your North Platform account, or the net proceeds of assetsthat are sold downwill be paid into your Platformcashaccount.
If you make a request to withdraw part of your interest in anymanaged portfolio (via a partial withdrawal or as part of a sellinstruction) and the withdrawal amount exceeds 90% of thecurrent asset value, the sale will be converted from adollar-based to a unit-based sale using the latest market unitprice held at the time of sale. This may result in a differentwithdrawal amount fromyouroriginal requestdue tovariationsinunit prices.Withdrawal periods varybetween fundmanagersand can be found in the underlying assets' PDS. For example,if you held 1,000 units in an investment option valued at $2perunit (1,000x $2=$2,000) and younominated to sell $1,900,we would automatically convert the sale to a unit based saleof 950 units (950 units x $2 = $1,900).
10
Transferring assets in and out of yourPortfolioYou may transfer certain managed fund holdings into yourPortfolio if those managed funds:– are first held in your North Platform account, and– form part of the particular managed portfolio in relation
to which you are investing.
This transfer of underlying assets will be done by way of anin-specie transfer from the North Platform into your Portfolio.
This in-specie transfer may result in the relative weighting ofthe asset you have transferred into your Portfolio exceedingtheweighting given to that asset in the target asset allocationfor that managed portfolio. This in turn may trigger arebalancing of your Portfolio (ie a proportional sell down ofsome underlying assets and purchase of other underlyingassets, so that your Portfolio corresponds to that of the relevantmanaged portfolio).
You may also make an in-specie transfer of underlying assetsheld in your Portfolio to your North Platform account, by wayof a partialwithdrawal request that is satisfied via an in-specietransfer out of your Portfolio. Again, this may result in arebalancing of the remaining assets in your Portfolio.
As responsible entity of MyNorth Managed Portfolios, we donot charge any fees for in-specie assets transfers, from yourNorth Platform account into your Portfolio, or from yourPortfolio into your North Platform account.
Switching between managed portfoliosYou may switch between managed portfolios at any time. Ifwe receive an instruction fromthePlatformOperator to changemanaged portfolios, we will:– compare the underlying asset holdings in your Portfolio
with the asset allocation of the newmanaged portfolio– retain in your Portfolio those underlying assets that can
form part of your Portfolio once it is managed inaccordance with the newmanaged portfolio you haveselected, and
– sell down the underlying assets that are not required onceyour Portfolio is managed in accordance with the newmanaged portfolio. The net proceeds of this sale will bepaid into your Platform cash account, and then reinvested(in accordance with your standing directions to thePlatform Operator) into your Portfolio to purchase theother underlying assets that make up the newmanagedportfolio.
Assets that cannot be held directly in yourNorth Platform accountCertain managed fund holdings that may form part of yourPortfolio are not available to be held directly in your NorthPlatform account. If these non-Platform assets form part ofyour Portfolio (and the underlying assets of the relevantmanaged portfolio) youmay not be able to transfer that assetin specie to your North Platform account. These non-Platformassets will generally be sold down and the net proceeds of thissale will be paid into your North Platform cash account.
11
Selecting the managersBefore we make a managed portfolio available, the managedportfolio and any investment manager are subject to duediligence assessment to determine their suitability.
The due diligence assessment is conducted by our internalresearch teams, which may draw upon external resources.There is an Investment Committee which has oversight of thedue diligence assessment and gives the final approval for amanaged portfolio to be added to the MyNorth ManagedPortfolios menu.
The due diligence assesses the investment managers'experience, investment processes and performance. Otherfactors specific to themanagedportfolio suchas its investmentstrategy and objective are also considered.
All managed portfolios are subject to the same due diligenceand reviewcriteria, includinganymanagedportfolios forwhichwe appoint a related party to construct and manage as ouragent.
AMP group entities may be appointed as an investmentmanager in relation to a number of the managed portfolios.We have policies as to how conflicts of interest are managedand these policies are applied in addition to the due diligenceand suitability criteria.
Our relationship with the investment manager is governed byan agreement and this sets out (among other things) theinvestment mandate applicable to each managed portfolio.
Changes to managed portfoliosWemay from time to time, add or removemanaged portfoliosbased upon the due diligence criteria and our on-goingmonitoring of the investment manager(s) and managedportfolios. If we decide to remove amanaged portfolio, wewillgenerally provide you with notice of the removal as soon aspracticable. If a managed portfolio is terminated, assets heldin your Portfolio (or the net proceeds from their sale) will betransferred to your North Platform account.
We recommend you consult your financial adviser beforeselecting a specific managed portfolio having regard to yourpersonal circumstances and investment strategy.
See themanaged portfolio menu for information on each ofthe managed portfolios available.
Monitoring and measuring performance ofyour PortfolioYou can track your Portfolio through North Online. This allowsyou and your financial adviser to review, transact and reporton your North Platform account. You can log-on at any time tosee how your investments are performing and perform awiderange of transactions.

How we keep you informed on your Portfolio
The performance of your Portfolio and the interest held for you in MyNorth Managed Portfolios will depend on the performanceof the managed portfolio you choose, and the performance of the assets in your Portfolio. The managed portfolios offered aresubject to risk, includingpossible delays in repaymentand loss of incomeandcapital. Nomemberof theAMPgroupor the investmentmanager(s) guarantee the repayment of capital, payment of income or the performance of the managed portfolios chosen.
All investments carry a risk component. Risk in an investment context refers to the possibility that the investment will not returnits original capital or expected income and that the level of return will be volatile over any given time period. This risk can includemarket risk, company risk, currency risk, interest rate and inflation risk. Investments with a low risk profile will usually providelower, though more consistent, returns than those with a higher risk profile. For example, investing cash into bank accounts isconsidered low risk/low return, while the share market has historically provided higher returns over the longer term with higherrisk and volatility.
Risk associated with MyNorth Managed PortfoliosWe are dependent on the accuracy and efficiency of our administration and computer systems. There is a risk that a failurein any of these systems will cause a delay in processing and rebalancing of your Portfolio.
Operational andimplementationrisks We have procedures in place designed to reduce the risk of systems not working optimally, and we have procedures and
controls in place that are designed to address such occurrences.
A particular investment manager and managed portfolio may underperform their stated objectives and benchmark. Theperformance of your Portfolio is partly dependent on the performance of the investmentmanager(s), whomay not achievetheir investment objective. The degree of success of an investment manager’s strategies and methodologies can varyaccording to economic and other conditions.
Investmentmanager risk
Cash and fixed interestAsset sector risksHistorically, longer-term returns have generally been lower than other assets. In some cases, cash returns after fees andchargesmay not keep upwith price inflation over the long term. Cashmay include ‘cash like’ assets such as corporate bondsecurities and derivative instruments. Such assets may suffer loss of value, leading to negative returns.
PropertyRisks of property investing include vacancies, locational factors, unprofitable property development activities, decliningproperty values and realised losses when properties are sold. Property investments may be held in a trust listed on a stockexchange, and in that case, will also attract some of the risk associated with share market volatility. Property developmentmay also be undertaken where the risks include delays in obtaining required approvals, construction risk, leasing risk andmarket risk.
Alternative assetsAlternative assets can be classified as growth or defensive assets and often present higher risk than traditional investments.Alternative assets can include:– private equity (an unlisted company/enterprise),– venture capital (associated with new business),– mezzanine finance (a form of unsecured debt finance)– private placement debt– infrastructure debt or equity, commodities and trading strategies.
Specific risk may include loss of capital, and assets becoming illiquid.
Australian sharesShare market investments have historically produced higher returns than cash or fixed interest investments over the longterm. However, the risk of capital loss exists, especially over the shorter term. You should be aware that past share marketinvestment performance is not an indication of future performance.Specific risks may include a slowdown in economic growth, individual companies reporting disappointing profits anddividends, andmanagement changes.Where you are invested in listed securities, the value of these securitiesmay decreaseas a result of these and other events.
International sharesThese are influenced by global economic trends and individual country and industry risk factors as well as specific risksrelating to individual companies. Unhedged international share investments also carry currency risk. Capital gains mayoccur when the Australian dollar depreciates relative to other currencies and capital losses may occur when the Australiandollar appreciates.
14
What are the risks?
There is no guarantee that themanaged portfolios asset allocation approachwill provide positive investment performanceat all stages of the investment cycle.
Asset allocation risk
Inflation risk is the chance that your money may not maintain its purchasing power with increases in the price of goodsand services (inflation). When prices go up, your investment also needs to go up by the rate of inflation for you to purchasethe same amount of goods and services. If your investment returns are less than the rate of inflation, then the real valueof your investment will decline.
Inflation risk
Substantial losses can be incurred if a counterparty fails to deliver on its contractual obligations or experiences financialdifficulties.

Investing and dealing with investments often has tax implications. These implications generally depend on your individualcircumstances, and you should seek professional tax advice based on your own situation.
When investing in the MyNorth Managed Portfolios, the assets in your Portfolio are beneficially owned. As a result, all income,dividends, distributions, capital gains and capital losses, and their tax consequences, accrue directly to the relevant investor. If youare investing in theMyNorthManaged Portfolios via a North Platform IDPS account, this is you.If you are investing in theMyNorthManaged Portfolios via a North Platform super account, this is the relevant superannuation fund.
After the end of a tax year you will be sent details by the North Platform of any assessable income, capital gains, tax credits andany other relevant items in relation to your investment in the MyNorth Managed Portfolios to include in your tax return.
Tax on IncomeThe assets you hold through the MyNorth Managed Portfolios derive income such as dividends, distributions and interest. Thus,each financial year you (or the superannuation fund) will need to assess and pay tax on any income generated by your investment.However, tax credits from your assets may be received and may be able to be applied to offset the tax liability.
Expenses incurred in deriving assessable incomemay be able to be treated as allowable deductions.
Transaction costs incurred on the acquisition or disposal of an asset within your Portfolio are included in the cost base of the assetand thereby affect the capital gains or loss arising on disposal.
Tax of capital gainsCapital gains tax may arise from the disposal of assets within your Portfolio. Disposal of assets may arise from:– a realignment or rebalance of the assets within a managed portfolio (initiated by the investment manager or by us)– a partial or full withdrawal request– a decision to invest in, or switch between, managed portfolios.
Goods and Services Tax (GST)Goods and services tax (GST) is payable for most fees charged, or payable to us. Wemay be entitled to claim reduced input taxcredit (RITC) refunds for part of the GST incurred in relation to the fees.
Where other government charges, such as stamp duty, apply we will charge these directly to your Platform cash account.
Non-residents withholding taxIf you are not an Australian resident, Australianwithholding taxmay be deducted from your distributions. The tax ratewill dependon the nature of the distributions and the country in which you reside.
Withholding taxes will also arise if foreign securities such as some Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) are held within your Portfolio.These taxes are charged by foreign jurisdictions and are generally deducted on payment of distributions to investors.

Investing in managed portfoliosMyNorth Managed Portfolios provides your with access to a range of professionally managed portfolios, where you retain theultimate beneficial interest in the underlying assets. You can choose from a range of managed portfolios with varying investmentstrategies, objectives, growth and defensive asset exposure and underlying managed funds.
The managed portfolios may invest in the Advantage series of managed funds as well as other suitable funds in the market.
Explanation of investment conceptsThe following pages describe each of the managed portfolios currently available. Before reading about them, here are someinvestment concepts you should understand.
Diversified portfoliosA diversified managed portfolio invests across a range of asset classes and investment opportunities, which can include:– Australian and international shares– property and infrastructure– Australian and international fixed interest and– alternative assets.
Defensive assetsDefensive assets include investments such as cash and fixed interest. Defensive assets tend to carry lower levels of risk and thereforeare more likely to generate lower levels of return over the longer term.
Growth assetsGrowth assets include Australian and international shares, listed property and some alternative investments. Growth assets tendto carry higher levels of risk and therefore are more likely to generate higher levels of return over the longer term.
VolatilityVolatility in investingmeans the degree to which an asset's value rises and falls over time. Rapid and large upward and downwardmovements may occur over a relatively short period of time due to market uncertainties or sentiment.
Income based portfoliosThese managed portfolios are generally designed to provide higher recurring income and lower downside risk. If your Portfolio ismanaged in accordance with one of these managed portfolios, any income derived from the assets forming part of your Portfoliomay be paid to your Platform cash account, and will not be reinvested into your Portfolio (unless you elect to make a subsequentinvestment).
Accumulation (growth) based portfoliosThese managed portfolios are generally designed to seek growth and accumulate investment return. If your Portfolio is managedin accordance with one of these managed portfolios, any income derived from the assets forming part of your Portfolio may bereinvested in your Portfolio.

MyNorth Managed Portfolios
Sustainable investment based portfoliosThe MyNorth Sustainable Investment Managed Portfolio has been designed in accordance with the sustainable framework andprinciples developed byNMMT Ltd and theAMPResearch Team. In addition, the investmentmanagerwehave appointed in relationto this managed portfolio and the underlying assets that comprise this managed portfolio have been selected considering thisframework. Generally, the underlying assets forming part of this managed portfolio have been selected having regard to financialperformance, but may also take into account non-financial concerns relating to the investment and its exposure, such as workingconditions, human rights, social impacts, shareholders’ rights and the environment.
For information about the extent towhich labour standards or environmental, social or ethical considerations are taken into accountin the construction and management of the MyNorth Sustainable Managed Portfolio, refer to the description of the MyNorthSustainable Managed Portfolio within this menu (this document) and refer to the Sustainable Investment (SI) section.
Objective based portfoliosThesemanagedportfolios are designed to seek a certain outcomeor objective over a defined time frame. Thesemanagedportfoliosinvest across a range of asset classes and in varying amounts in response to market conditions.
Standard risk measureThe standard risk measure is based on industry guidance and aims to allow investors to compare managed portfolios that areexpected to deliver a similar number of negative annual returns over any 20 year period.
Each managed portfolio described in this document includes a standard risk measure (referred to as risk band and risk label). Thetable below sets out the risk bands/labels used for each managed portfolio based on the estimated number of negative annualreturns that a managed portfolio may experience over any 20 year period.
Estimated number of negative annual returns over any 20 year periodRisk labelRisk band

1 to less than 2Low to medium3
2 to less than 3Medium4
3 to less than 4Medium to high5

The standard risk measure is not a complete assessment of investment risk. For instance, it does not detail what the size of anegative return could be or if a positive return is less than an investor may need to meet their objectives. Further, it does not takeinto account the impact of fees and taxes on the likelihood of a negative return.
You should still ensure that you are comfortable with the risks and potential losses associated with any managed portfolio thatyou choose.
Indicative asset allocation rangesThe indicative asset allocation rangeprovides an indication of the intendedallocationbetweendifferent asset classes for amanagedportfolio. The actual asset allocation for a managed portfolio may deviate from this indicative range.
Further informationTo further understand any of these investment concepts, please speak to your financial adviser.

The portfolio employs a responsible and sustainable framework for investing.Sustainable investmentThe underlying managed funds forming part of the managed portfolio have been selected on thelikelihood of meeting their investment objectives and how the relevant fund manager integratesenvironmental, social and governance (ESG) considerations into their decision making. We invest inunderlying managed funds that, based on the information provided by the relevant fund managers,avoid investing in companies with material involvement in activities we consider to have a negativeimpact on the environment or the community.The assessment is centred around the following sustainability principles:
Fund Selection FocusPrinciple
We select underlying funds that have investment processesthat consider a company’s impact on the environment.Considerationsmay include the company’s energy usage andefficiency, pollution, contribution to climate change throughemissions, and carbon footprint.
Transitioning to a low carboneconomy.
We select underlying funds that seek to avoid exposure toinvestments in these activities and industries. The fundsmayhave revenue thresholds of up to 10% in these activities.
Avoid material investments inthermal coal, tobacco, gambling,pornography and controversialweapons.
We select underlying funds in which the relevant fundmanagers have expressed a commitment to influence theactivity orbehaviourof companieswith respect toESGmatters
Encouragepositive sustainable socialand environmental outcomes for thecommunity.
through ongoing constructive engagement and proxy voting.They may also consider human rights, workplace health andsafety, diversity, and modern slavery.
Assets are considered on a case-by-case basis, and we do not apply a particular weighting system ormetricswhen taking into account labour standards or environmental, social or ethical considerations.Other considerations in selecting an underlying fund include whether the relevant fund manager isa signatory to the United Nations Principles for Responsible Investment (UNIPRI) or is certified byResponsible Investment Association Australasia (RIAA).Currently, we do not take ESG considerations into account in selecting Cash assets.The underlying funds are reviewed on an on-going basis, however on an annual basis we reconfirmwhether the underlying fund continues to be consistent with our sustainability principles. If we formthat view (basedon informationprovidedby the relevantunderlying fundmanager) that theunderlyingfund no longer meets our selection criteria from either a sustainable or investment perspective, wewill generally take steps to remove and replace that underlying investment as soon as practicable.

Did you know?
Small differences in both investment performance and fees and costs can have a substantial impact on your long-term returns.
For example, total annual fees and costs of 2% of your account balance rather than 1% could reduce your final return by up to20% over a 30-year period (for example, reduce it from $100,000 to $80,000).
You should consider whether features such as superior investment performance or the provision of better member servicesjustify higher fees and costs.
You may be able to negotiate to pay lower contribution fees and management costs where applicable. Ask the fund or yourfinancial adviser.

If you would like to find out more, or see the impact of fees based on your own circumstances, the Australian Securities andInvestments Commission (ASIC)website (moneysmart.gov.au) has amanaged funds fee calculator tohelp you checkoutdifferentfee options.
This document shows fees and other costs that youmay be charged. These fees and costsmay be deducted from yourmoney, fromthe returns on your investment or from the assets of the managed investment scheme as a whole.

Investment management feeThe investment management fee represents the base fee component payable for professional investment management of themanaged portfolios.
It is calculated by multiplying your opening Portfolio balance on the day of the fee deduction by the applicable fee rate and isdeducted from your Platform cash account each month in arrears on your monthly account anniversary.
However, if you withdraw all of your money from one or more managed portfolios before your monthly account anniversary, wewill use the managed portfolio balance on the previous day to the withdrawal and prorate the applicable fee rate for the numberof days since your last monthly account anniversary to the date of withdrawal.
In addition, we are entitled to be reimbursed for any authorised expenses incurred in the management and administration ofmanagedportfolios. Currently, all operational and administration expenses, such as custodian, accounting, audit and legal expenses(but excluding transaction costs), are paid out of the investment management fee and are not charged to you separately.
If any unexpected or extraordinary expenses are incurred, we may choose to recover these costs in addition to the investmentmanagement fee. Any such amounts will be deducted from your Platform cash account under your standing instructions.
Indirect costsThe underlying assets in which the managed portfolios invest will generally incur indirect costs including, but not limited to, thefollowing types of underlying asset fees and costs:– management fees– performance based fees (PBFs)– recoverable expenses such as audit and legal fees, tax and accounting services, custody, regulatory compliance, administration
and registry services and any similar expenses– costs of investing in over-the-counter (OTC) derivatives used to gain economic exposure to assets.
Indirect costs are incorporated into the managed portfolio's asset value. They are not fixed, will vary from time to time and willdepend on the type and mix of underlying assets held by the managed portfolio, as well as the trading of those assets, and theactual costs incurred.
We have assumed that the indirect costs of the underlying assets will not materially change from the last financial year, and havebased our estimate of indirect costs on those incurred for the last financial year.
Actual costs may be more than those estimated due to factors such as better than expected investment performance, abnormalexpenses arising (for example from litigation or a change in the law), or from changes to an investment strategy.
Performance based fees
NMMT does not currently charge a performance fee, however PBFs are paid to certain underlying investmentmanagers, includingAMP Capital, as a reward for exceeding specific investment performance targets. PBFs are generally expressed as a percentage ofthe out-performance over the relevant benchmark index. Any PBFs charged are deducted from the underlying assets of the relevantmanaged portfolio. They are in addition to any investment management fees we charge and will increase management costs.
Each PBF is calculated slightly differently but they all have the following common elements:– A PBF is only payable to an investment manager if they achieve a target level of return– Each time a PBF is paid, the pool of assets must reach the previous highest value plus the appropriate performance hurdle
before a new PBF is payable– PBFs are calculated and accrued regularly (at least monthly) and incorporated into the calculation of unit prices. The
accrued PBF can rise or fall in line with delivered performance.– PBFs are only payable at the end of each financial year and in certain circumstances payments may be delayed.
We have assumed that PBFs of the underlying assets will not materially change from the last financial year, and have based ourestimate of PBFs on those incurred for the last financial year.
Actual PBFs may be more than those estimated due to factors such as better than expected investment performance.

Underlying transactional and operational costs are in addition to management costs. They are variable and actual transactional and operational costs may bemore or less than the amounts shown. Refer to transactional and operational costs below for further details.
(i)
Buy/sell costs are estimated based on the buy/sell spreads of the underlying managed funds in which the managed portfolio invests. They apply to the amountof any new investments (buy costs) or withdrawals (sell costs) including rebalancing your portfolio. Buy/sell costs are variable and the actual buy/sell costs maybe more or less than the amounts shown. Refer to buy/sell costs below for further details.

Transactional and operational costsManaged portfolios may incur transactional and operational costs when dealing with the underlying assets of the managedportfolio, including any assets of any underlying managed funds in which the managed portfolio invests.
Transactional and operational costs are an additional cost to you andmay include brokerage, settlement and clearing costs, stampduty, the buy and sell spreads of any underlyingmanaged funds and the costs of (or transactional and operational costs associatedwith) derivatives. These costs are dependent on the number and amount of assets bought and sold andwill differ according to thetype of assets held by the managed portfolio or the purpose for which any OTC derivatives held in any underlying managed fundsare acquired.
Transactional and operational costs may also include property operating costs incurred in any underlying managed funds thathave exposure to real estate assets or hold investments vehicles that have exposure to real estate assets. Property operating costsinclude rates, utilities, repairs and maintenance costs that have not been recovered from tenants.
We have assumed that the transactional and operational costs of the underlying assets will not materially change from the lastfinancial year, and have based our estimate of transactional and operational costs on those incurred for the last financial year.
Actual transactional and operational costs may be more than those estimated due to factors such as changes to an investmentstrategy or the purchase or sale of a real property or an infrastructure asset.
Buy/sell costs
We do not directly charge a buy/sell spread on managed portfolios, however most managed funds held by managed portfolioshave buy and sell spreads. This is the difference between the unit price used to value any new investments (buy unit price) and theunit price used to value any withdrawals (sell unit price) and is the fund manager’s estimate of the costs of buying and sellingassets of the fund due to investments and withdrawals from the fund.– The buy spread is added to the unit price of the underlying managed fund to arrive at the buy price– The sell spread is deducted from the unit price of the underlying managed fund to arrive at the sell price
When you invest in amanaged portfolio, includingwhenwe rebalance your Portfolio, we purchase equivalentmanaged fund unitsat the buy price and you will incur buy costs based on the the underlying managed funds' buy spreads.
When you withdrawmoney from amanaged portfolio, including when we rebalance your Portfolio, we sell equivalent managedfund units at the sell price and you will incur sell costs based on the the underlying managed funds' sell spreads.
Wehave estimatedbuy/sell costs basedon the indicative asset allocation to theunderlyingmanaged funds and the actualmanagedfund buy and sell spreads that currently apply, and we have assumed that these will apply in the future.
Actual buy/sell costs may be more than those estimated due to factors such as a change to the underlying managed funds buyand sell spreads, or a variance between actual and indicative asset allocations.
Buy/sell costs are an additional cost to you.
Borrowing costsBorrowing costs are incurred in certain underlying managed funds in which managed portfolios may invest.
They are the costs associated with borrowing money or securities, such as interest, establishment fees, government charges andstock borrowing fees.
We have assumed that the borrowing costs of the underlying assets will not materially change from the last financial year, andhave based our estimate of borrowing costs on those incurred for the last financial year.
Actual borrowing costsmaybemore than thoseestimateddue to factors suchas changes toan investment strategyor thepurchaseor sale of a real property or an infrastructure asset.
Differential pricingWemay negotiate different fees with ‘wholesale clients’ (including ‘professional investors’) as defined in the Corporations Act.
Goods and Services Tax (GST)All fees and costs are inclusive of GST and, where applicable, less reduced input tax credits.
Taxation matters are set out in the general information document.
39
Changes to fees and costsWemay change fees and reimburse ourselves for any expenses.
If we increase a fee that we charge, we will give you at least 30 days' prior written notice.
