Fund Overview

The Group's flagship retail fund, Investa Diversified Office Fund (IDOF), is an established open-ended commercial real estate fund which holds interests in quality office buildings in most of Australia's major centres. IDOF will seek to acquire further property interests over time.

IDOF has assets under management of $546 million making it one of the larger and geographically diversified unlisted property trusts available to Australian retail investors. Since inception, annualised distributions from IDOF have been 8.25 cents per unit in FY 2006 and 8.3 cents per unit in FY 2007. The distribution for September and December 2007 quarters was 2.3 cents per unit and, should the same amount be paid for the March and June quarters, this will be equal to an annual distribution of 9.2 cents per unit for the financial year 2007/08.

IDOF's portfolio has a tenancy profile which includes blue chip companies such as Telstra and GE Capital and various Commonwealth and State Government departments.

Investment Objectives

Our aim is to optimise distribution returns and provide capital growth. No particular return is forecast or guaranteed. However, in order for us to earn the performance-based component of our fee, IDOF must provide a Total Return of at least 10% p.a. after fees and expenses, assessed over a 5 year period. The total return of IDOF since inception in May 2005 is 23.03% per annum.
