Introduction

Since 1997, Man Investments Australia has launched 44 funds and has over A$6 billion under management. A key component of these funds is the AHL Diversified Program.

Man AHL Diversified (AUD) aims to generate medium term capital growth* by identifying and taking advantage of upward and downward price trends.

It has shown a low correlation with traditional investments, enabling investors to diversify a traditional investment portfolio of stocks, property and bonds.

Unlike the Man OM-IP funds, this fund does not have a capital guarantee.

As at 31 December 2011, the Company has approximately A$265 million under management.

The past performance of Man AHL Diversified plc, Man Investments' longest running USD weekly dealing AHL fund, is compared to Australian, Asian and global stock market indices in the chart below. It shows that Man AHL Diversified plc continued to record positive medium term growth despite the downturn in global and Asian stock markets and flat or negative performance of the Australian stock market in the periods highlighted^.

The chart also shows that Man AHL Diversified plc generated returns regardless of the direction of these markets and provided investors with a significant element of diversification within a traditional investment portfolio. Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future performance.

An investment in Shares is subject to the key risks described in Section 8 of the Prospectus. Investors should carefully read the Prospectus and talk to their licensed financial advisor before making an investment decision.

    Whilst MIAL shall use reasonable efforts to obtain information from sources which we believe to be reliable, MIAL gives no warranty as to the accuracy, completeness or reliability of any information, opinions or forecasts contained on the Site, nor does it undertake to ensure that this Site will be available or accessible at all times. MIAL shall have no liability (whether in contract, tort or otherwise) for any direct, indirect, consequential or special losses or damages of any kind whatsoever arising from or in connection with the access to, use of or linking to other websites ("Linked Websites") from this Site or any reliance on any of the Content.

  8. Investment Performance

    Potential investors should note that investments can involve significant risks and the value of an investment may go down as well as up. The Investment Products on this Site typically use alternative investment strategies and may invest in derivatives of any kind. The prices of futures, options and other instruments in which the products may invest may fall in value as rapidly as they may rise and it may not be possible to liquidate the positions in the relevant markets before a loss is sustained. Price fluctuations may be substantial because of leverage. No assurance can be given that the investment objective of any Investment Product will be achieved or that substantial losses will not be suffered. There is no guarantee of trading performance and past or projected performance is not necessarily a guide to future results. Movements in exchange rates between currencies may affect the value of an investment.

  9. No Reliance

    Nothing contained on this Site constitutes investment, legal, tax or other advice or a recommendation to purchase or sell any investment. You should not rely on any of the Content in making an investment or other decision but should obtain relevant and specific professional advice and read the terms and conditions contained in the relevant offering prospectus carefully before any investment decision is made.

  10. Material Interests

    Any one of MIAL or its affiliates or their directors, officers, employees, agents or representatives may have or have had an interest or holding, relationship or other arrangement with the Investment Products which may be material. Potential investors should refer to the applicable offering documents for any Investment Product and in particular, the potential conflicts of interest discussed therein.
