The strategy gains exposure to the Mutual Income Fund, which seeks to provide a reliable income stream and a high level of capital preservation by investing in a portfolio of Australian bank senior and subordinated floating rate notes, with a concentration to the Big 4 banks.

The Mutual Wholesale Income option offers platform users an income-focused, cost-effective and well-rated solution that only invests in Australian banks.”
