The above investment mix represents the mix for the Strategic Asset Allocation (SAA) – our long-term target for allocating assets between asset classes - for our plans. The actual mix for your plan may differ from the SAA and can be viewed by selecting ‘Actual allocation’ under the relevant plan. The SAA and other information provided above is current and is based on the current Treasurer’s Prudential Guidelines for Investments which were approved on 3 August 2023.

The SAA, asset allocation ranges or the composition of individual asset classes may change from time to time, without prior notice.

The risk level is based upon the Standard Risk Measure. The SRM is based on industry guidance developed to allow members to compare investment options that are expected to deliver a similar number of negative returns over a 20-year period.

** Consumer Price Index.

^ The Growth/Defensive split is the target allocation mix of Growth and Defensive assets. Some asset classes such as Infrastructure, Medium Risk Alternatives and Property are classified as part Growth and Defensive. These asset class mixes are taken into consideration when calculating the overall plan Growth/Defensive split.

+ Statement of fees and other costs are based on fees over the 2022/23 financial year. For information on other fees and costs, see our schedule of fees brochure.

++ Returns are reported after factoring in the investment fees and costs, and are based on transactional prices, and inclusive of franking credits. The investment fees and costs include all investment costs, transaction costs and any other underlying costs relating to your investment.

Our schemes are Exempt Public Sector Superannuation Schemes and are regulated by the WA State Government and not the Commonwealth Government.

The State Government guarantees to pay every benefit payable under a scheme, including the accumulation, retirement and defined benefit schemes. This Benefit Payment Guarantee does not include investment market losses.

The performance of your investment plan is not guaranteed and returns may move up or down depending on factors such as investment market conditions. Past performance should not be relied on as an indication of future performance.

The Asset Allocation to Property includes listed and unlisted investments.
