GGAB ETF Investment Strategy

GGAB offers geared exposure to the returns of 10-year Australian Treasury Bonds, in a single ASX trade. The Fund invests its assets in cash and cash equivalents, and buys 10-year Australian Treasury Bond Futures. The futures contracts reflect the returns of an underlying Australian Treasury Bond with 10 years to maturity. A 1% rise in the value of the bond on a given day can generally be expected to deliver a 2.5% to 3.0% increase in the value of the Fund (and a corresponding decrease in the value of the Fund if the value of the bond falls by 1%).
