               Specialist Income SMA (Assertive, Balanced & Moderate)

               Hybrid redeemed and replaced




               As at 14 April 2025


               Hybrid securities typically have maturity dates where they can be converted to a different asset
               class or redeemed. The hybrid security – ANZ Capital Notes 5 (AN3PH) investment within the
               Specialist Income portfolios  has been redeemed  and  needs to be replaced  with another
               investment.



               Redeemed:


               On 20 March 2025, ANZ Capital Notes 5 (AN3PH) reached its first call date and was redeemed
               by ANZ. Each unit was redeemed for a par value of $100, along with a final distribution of
               $1.5645.



               Purchased:


               Historically we have replaced matured hybrids with another hybrid option. Hybrid spreads have
               tightened to low levels. Despite the attractive current yield, hybrids currently look expensive
               relative to the risk they carry to other fixed income and bond options. We are also conscious
               of changing liquidity conditions in this part of the market and the impact trading may have on
               returns. For this reason, we have replaced AN3PH with the VanEck Australian Subordinated
               Debt ETF (SUBD). SUBD is already owned in your portfolio, therefore this purchase increases
               the existing allocation.


               Description:


               SUBD is an ETF which invests in a portfolio of subordinated bonds, with the aim of providing
               investment returns before fees and other costs that track the performance of the iBoxx AUD
               Investment Grade Subordinated Debt Mid Price Index. This provides investors with exposure
               to a portfolio of regulatory Tier 2 Capital investment grade credit subordinated floating rate
               bonds. These are similar to hybrid securities but are higher ranking in the issuer’s corporate
               structure. The portfolio only includes AUD denominated floating rate bonds issued by
