Man AHL Gold (AUD)
Access the AHL Diversified Program and the Gold Investment
- Accesses the AHL Diversified Program & the Gold Investment
- Weekly applications & withdrawals
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.
Responding to investor and financial advisor demand, Man Investments Australia has structured an opportunity for investors to have access to the AHL Diversified Program and the ability to invest in gold through the Gold Investment.
Man AHL Gold (AUD) aims to generate medium term capital growth* by combining the following two approaches:
- identifying and taking advantage of upward and downward price trends using the AHL Diversified Program; and
- providing exposure to movements in the value of gold through the Gold Investment.
Unlike the Man OM-IP funds, Man AHL Gold (AUD) does not provide a capital guarantee.
The AHL Diversified Program
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^.
Man AHL Diversified plc vs Australian and global stock market indices
March 1996 to September 2011
Source Man Investments.
Note The chart is expressed in log scale to uniformly illustrate percentage changes each month. It shows the actual trading results of Man AHL Diversified plc. It is not designed to predict or forecast the future performance of the AHL Diversified Program or Man AHL Gold (AUD). The fees and costs that will apply to an investment in the Company will be in accordance with those set out in Section 7 of the Prospectus and are different from the fees and costs payable by Man AHL Diversified plc. The final weekly valuation for a month is used to calculate the monthly return of Man AHL Diversified plc. As there was no weekly valuation in March 1996, the first monthly return shown is for April 1996. Performance figures are calculated net of all fees as at 30 September 2011. Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future performance.
The Gold Investment
Gold is a precious metal with numerous uses, including coinage, jewellery, luxury goods, electronics and medicine. Gold is also highly sought after for its investment value, particularly in times of market crises such as inflation, war, currency failures and stock market declines.
The Gold Investment consists of one or more exchange traded funds selected by the Investment Manager for the purpose of providing the Company with exposure to movements in the value of gold.
The following chart shows the past performance of the value of gold (per troy ounce in US dollars) since March 1996.
To judge performance over a short term period of one, two or even three years can be misleading as an investment in the Company, over the short term, may be volatile. It will inevitably, like other investments, have periods of flat, below average or negative performance.

Note The chart is expressed in log scale to uniformly illustrate percentage changes each month. It is not designed to predict or forecast the future performance of the value of gold (per troy ounce in US dollars). The fees and costs that will apply to the Gold Investment will be in accordance with those set out in Section 7 of the Prospectus and may mean that the value of the Gold Investment at any time may not reflect the full value of gold (represented by the spot price of gold per troy ounce in US dollars). See Section 6 of the Prospectus for further details regarding the potential tracking error in relation to the Gold Investment. Performance figures are calculated as at 30 September 2011. Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future performance.
† Funds under management as at 30 September 2011.
* The aim to generate medium term capital growth is based on the past performance of the AHL Diversified Program (see Section 3 of the Prospectus) and the value of gold (see Section 4 of the Prospectus). The value of gold is represented by the spot price of gold per troy ounce in US dollars. Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future performance.
