Choose from two unique access points
Investors can access the Magellan High Conviction Strategy either as an unlisted managed fund or as a Listed Investment Trust listed on the ASX. These funds offer investors the same global equities investment strategy, but with individual choice about how to access the strategy:
Unlisted units in the managed fund are available for purchase and redemption with the fund itself via an application form. Just complete an application form and deliver to the fund’s registry.
Listed units are listed on the ASX (ASX:MHH) as a closed ended Listed Investment Trust and can be purchased and sold via either a stockbroker or an online share trading platform. Closed ended units can trade at a premium or discount to the Net Asset Value. If you participate in the Distribution Reinvestment Plan (DRP) you can reinvest your distributions with a 5% discount to the Net Asset Value.
To find out more about your preferred method of access, and for information on how to invest, please select either the unlisted or listed toggle below.
The iNAV reflects the estimated NAV per Unit updated for foreign exchange movements in the Fund's portfolio stocks by individual stock domicile and is also updated in respect of stocks that have live market prices during the ASX Trading Day. If there are no stocks held by the Fund that have live market prices during the ASX Trading Day, movements in the iNAV will only reflect foreign exchange movements. The iNAV will not be updated for market-based movements such as movements in stock market indices.

Investment philosophy
The Magellan High Conviction Trust seeks to invest in outstanding companies at attractive prices, while exercising a deep understanding of the macroeconomic environment to manage investment risk.
Magellan perceives outstanding companies to be those that are able to sustainably exploit competitive advantages in order to continually earn returns on capital that are materially in excess of their cost of capital.
While Magellan is extremely focused on fundamental business value, it is not a typical 'value' investor. The Magellan High Conviction Trust will invest in companies that have relatively high price-to-earnings and price-to-book multiples, provided that their businesses are outstanding and their shares are trading at an appropriate discount to their assessed intrinsic value. Equities that appear undervalued on the basis of a low price-to-earnings or price-to-book multiples will often prove to be poor investments if the underlying business is fundamentally weak and exhibits poor returns on capital.
Magellan focuses on risk-adjusted returns, rather than benchmark-relative returns. As a result, the Magellan High Conviction Trust investment process is designed to generate an unconstrained, highly-concentrated portfolio of high-quality companies.
The Magellan High Conviction Trust will comprise of 8 to 12 investments, with the portfolio weighted towards Magellan's highest-conviction ideas.
Portfolio construction
The Magellan High Conviction Trust's investment process integrates three key disciplines:
Intensive bottom-up stock analysis and industry research.
Broad and detailed macroeconomic insight.
Rigorous portfolio construction and risk discipline.
Intensive bottom-up stock analysis and industry research is undertaken in order to identify outstanding companies. This involves the assessment of potential investments against key quality criteria, as well as assessments of their intrinsic value. Magellan uses a proprietary ranking tool, the Magellan Conviction Scoring Matrix, to rank these companies based on these factors. This process enables the portfolio to be weighted towards higher conviction ideas (on a risk-adjusted basis).
Magellan's detailed macroeconomic analysis is overlayed during portfolio construction, alongside the application of both fixed and dynamic risk limits. This process ensures that the portfolio is not overly exposed to aggregation risk (risk which arises from correlated portfolio positions) or macroeconomic event risk. Macroeconomic event risk can be a significant source of negative returns for investors. Magellan will make significant changes to the portfolio if it believes that macroeconomic events could lead to significant and sustained loss in value for investors. Such events would include a financial crisis, a sustained oil price shock, a global pandemic or a major global conflict.

The case for global investing rests largely on the belief that companies based outside Australia are expected to benefit the most from the key long-term shifts taking place all over the world.
Magellan intends to target a cash distribution yield of 3% per annum based on the average month-end NAV per Unit over a two-year rolling period (“Target Cash Distribution”).
Magellan will announce Magellan High Conviction Trust’s Target Cash Distribution per Unit on ASX at the beginning of each semi-annual distribution period. Magellan expects that the distribution policy will provide unitholders with greater certainty about the value of upcoming distributions.
Under the AMIT rules, investors will be assessed for tax on the income of the Trust attributed to them. Where the income of the Trust exceeds the Target Cash Distribution, the Constitution permits Magellan to reinvest part or all of the distribution and/or accumulate part or all of the Trust's income in the Trust, in which case the income of the Trust that is attributed to you (and which must be included in your income tax return) will be more than the cash distribution paid. Distributions will be paid semi-annually.
Yes, in respect of each Target Cash Distribution, Magellan may offer a DRP at its discretion. Magellan intends to offer Unitholders who elect to participate in the DRP in respect of the Target Cash Distribution an issue price which is set at a 5% discount to the prevailing NAV per Unit. As an additional benefit to Unitholders and to ensure that Unitholders who elect not to participate in the DRP suffer no dilution as a result of the DRP discount, the Magellan Group will pay Magellan High Conviction Trust an amount of consideration equal to the cost of this discount.
To elect to participate in the DRP, please contact the unit registry Boardroom on 1300 737 760 or log on to their secure website at www.investorserve.com.au
The Magellan High Conviction Trust is listed on ASX, however is a closed-ended listed investment trust, not an Active ETF.
