Overview

C2 Equity Optimiser Series 1 - Overview

The C2 Equity Optimiser Units (the “Units”) have been designed to address key investment objectives that many investors are seeking as they are entering retirement in a single investment, such as

  • Cash Flow: 10% p.a, tax free Return of Capital3
  • Sequencing Risk Solutions
  • Growth Potential: 10 Year leveraged exposure to the US share market
  • Capital Protection2

In other words, Retirement Equity Optimisation.

A summary of the key features are as follows 

 

C2 Equity Optimiser Series 1

Cash Flow: 10% p.a, tax free Return of Capital3 Investors receive regular cash flows via 10% p.a3 Capital Returns (monthly, commencing from Year 2). These payments are tax free as per ATO PR 2024/17. Importantly, Investors will not miss out on any growth, as the initial Investment exposure remains the same all the way through to Maturity, despite the Capital Returns. Investors can plan ahead knowing their Investment will remain fully exposed to growth, and that their original invested capital will be returned on a steady, regular basis, allowing it to be applied to other purposes, such as to help cover living expenses, medical costs, and other financial obligations.
Sequencing Risk Solutions (Timing Risk) Selling part of a portfolio to fund cash flow needs isn’t always ideal, especially in a depressed market. Selling down a portfolio can have significant long-term impacts on compounding growth, especially in the earlier years of the investment journey or when the portfolio prices are low.  C2 Retirement Equity Optimiser Units help manage this risk, as the investment exposure remains fully invested over the 10 year term despite returning all the investors capital over the term via tax free Capital Returns3
Growth Potential
The investment offers investors exposure to the US stock market via the BNP Paribas US Equities Dynamic AUD Hedged Index. Not only do investors maintain their full investment exposure over the 10-year term (despite having the Issue Price fully refunded to them over 10 years3), the index dynamically employs internal leverage at the index level of up to 250% (using a 15% volatility target) to potentially amplify returns (but at the risk of also potentially amplifying losses
Capital Protection1 The investment incorporates capital protection mechanisms, ensuring that the principal amount invested remains protected throughout the 10-year term, where the Units are held to Maturity2 . This feature can help provide investors with peace of mind, knowing that their initial Investment Amount is returned to them, shielded from market volatility.
Investment Term Approximately 10 Years (commencing on the relevant Issue Date for the relevant Series)
Issue Price $1.00 per Unit
Participation Rate (Internal Leverage) The Investment includes internal leverage via a 145% Participation Rate to any positive performance of the Reference Asset at Maturity, and provides an opportunity for enhanced, compound growth potential without many of the traditional risks associated with leverage4 .
Currency Denomination AUD.
Investors are not exposed to the AUD/USD exchange rate
Averaging
At the beginning and end of the Investment Term, the Reference Asset Starting Price and Reference Asset Maturity Price will be determined based on the arithmetic average Reference Asset Closing Price on the relevant Averaging Dates.
SMSF Eligibility Yes. SMSFs can invest.

1 Refer to “Capital Protection” in Section 1 and 2 of this Term Sheet PDS. Capital Protection only applies at Maturity. The Units must be held to Maturity for Capital Protection to apply. Capital Protection may not apply if there is an Early Maturity Event, Adjustment Event or Issuer Buy-Back. Please see Section 5 “Key Risks” of this Term Sheet PDS and Section 2  “Risks” of the Master PDS for more information.
2 When the investment is made during the Initial Offer Period.
3 Investors should note the Units have been designed without taking into account any particular investor’s financial position, objectives and needs and you should consider your own financial position, objectives and needs and seek financial advice before making an investment in the Units.
4 Refer to Participation Rate Feature. Investors should be mindful that there are still some risks associated with the internal leverage. Please refer to Section 5 “Key Risks” for further information

      Risks

      C2 Accelerator Series 1 - Key Risks

      A summary of the key risks include:

      • Capital Protection. The Capital Protection will only apply to Investors that hold their Units through to Maturity. Capital Protection depends on the creditworthiness of the Issuer and the Hedge Counterparty.
      • Capital Returns are fixed at $0.10 per Unit per year commencing from Year 2, with the final $0.10 per Unit at the end of Year 10 (totalling $1.00 per Unit), in respect of all Units irrespective of the price actually paid by the Investor.
      • Your return with respect to the Final Value is affected by the performance of the Reference Asset. There is no guarantee that the Reference Asset will perform well. There will be no Final Value payable if the performance of the Reference Asset during the Term is negative. Performance of the Reference Asset will not affect the amount of the Capital Return payments.
      • Participation Rate Risk / Leverage or Gearing Risk. Gains and losses may be magnified by the use of leverage provided by the Reference Asset's volatility mechanism.
      • The Reference Asset is a futures-based index and also includes additional features such as the volatility control mechanism. As such, while it provides an exposure linked to the S&P 500 Index it should not be expected to mirror the performance of the S&P500 Index.  Investors should note that Reference Asset is expected to underperform the S&P500 in periods of higher interest rates (such as the current environment).  A more detailed explanation is provided in Section 3 of the Term Sheet PDS and at the Reference Asset website.
      • Averaging Risk. Averaging may result in reduced (or increased) returns.
      • Liquidity risk. The Issuer Buy-Back facility is at the discretion of the
      • The Units are designed to be held to Maturity, in the event of an Investor requested Issuer Buy-Back the Capital Protection mechanism will not apply and the amount you receive back can be significantly less than the expected performance if held to Maturity.
      • Early Maturity Risk. Units may mature early in certain circumstances.
      • Counterparty risk of Issuer, Custodian, Hedge Counterparty, Security Trustee.

      Please refer to Section 5 “Key Risks” of the Term Sheet PDS and Section 2 “Risks” of the Master PDS for a more comprehensive overview of the Risks.  Also refer to Section 3 “About BNP Paribas US Equities Dynamic AUD Hedged Index (the “Reference Asset”)” of the Term Sheet PDS and also the Reference Asset website for more information  https://indx.bnpparibas.com/Strategy/Index?pid=ty6c7yXpDLSJoNVy%2fug44g%3d%3d&subid=EkQFRHcQhfqquGrwjJFSvQ%3d%3d
