Ventura Investment Management Limited ABN 49 092 375 258

The Ventura Investment Program (VIP) is an investment outsourcing solution designed to provide strong risk-adjusted returns for investors. The focus of the VIP is on minimising risk while providing consistent investment performance.

These objectives are achieved by using a select number of the world's leading fund managers to manage your investments. Using multiple managers means you won't be relying on just one manager at any one time. By investing in a range of asset types, managed by a number of managers with complementary management styles, the VIP allows you to achieve three layers of diversification with a single investment.

Each manager specialises in a different market, has a different investment style, and invests in different asset classes (shares, bonds, property securities, etc). A complex choice of managers available worldwide leads most investors to ask - how can I know which mix of managers will best suit my tolerance for risk and help me to achieve my investment goals?

The Ventura Investment Program provides a solution that aims to produce superior returns with above-average consistency. How? The range of 8 Ventura Funds available offer you access to some of the world's leading investment managers, selected by one of the world's leading investment services firms, Russell Investment Group. The Ventura Funds utilise Russell's Multi Asset Multi Style Multi Manager™ investment approach, which is designed to meet your investment needs no matter what your time horizon, risk tolerance or personal situation may be. Work with your financial adviser to select the Ventura Fund, or combination of Ventura Funds, that are right for you.
