Why invest with Arculus
We are the investment manager for two retail unit funds, wholesale strategies and private mandates for family offices, charities and wealth advisory groups. Our funds are built for investors whose priorities are income and capital preservation.
Capital preservation first
Australian issuers only, in AUD. No leverage. No RMBS, ABS, CMBS or property developer exposure.
Absolute return
Benchmark unaware. Duration is set by where we are in the economic cycle, not by an index.
No performance fee
A flat management fee on every fund. Selling fees received by Arculus are rebated to the fund through the administrator.
Independent oversight
Arculus does not hold, value or administer the assets. Four eyes on every transaction: custody, administration, investment management and the Responsible Entity.
Wholesale & AIM
Arculus Wholesale strategies
SMA mandates in senior bank and insurer credit, and a protected equity strategy. For wholesale clients within the meaning of ss 708 and 761G.
