Perpetual Industrial Share Fund

Perpetual Industrial Share Fund

The Perpetual Industrial Share Fund is an actively managed portfolio of quality industrial shares. The Fund aims to provide long-term capital growth and regular income.

At Perpetual, we seek quality companies with sound management, conservative debt levels, recurring earnings and a quality business. We assess the quality of a business by looking at a company’s products, positioning and brands; its sources of competitive advantage; the barriers to entry in its market and any issues that that may influence the company’s future performance.

We only invest in a company when we believe its share price is attractive relative to its return potential. Perpetual seeks to hold positions for the long term, provided that the quality of the business remains unchanged and the price remains attractive.

As an ‘industrials only’ fund, we invest in sectors such as banking, telecommunications, tourism, building and engineering. Typically, industrial shares have historically provided lower volatility than resource shares – helping to provide a smoother ride and protect capital.

A true to label industrial share fund

The Fund invests only in quality industrial shares. We believe industrial shares are generally more reliable and less volatile than resource shares as they are less influenced by commodity prices.

Enviable long-term performance

The Fund has been investing in industrial shares for nearly six decades - making it one of the most enduring managed funds in Australia.

Expert investment management

The Fund is managed by one of Australia’s largest and most experienced equity teams. The team conducts more than 1,000 company meetings or calls each year to help identify quality companies.

Quality investments

Our rigorous screening process has helped to create a high quality portfolio, which has delivered strong capital growth and franked dividends over decades.

October 28, 2024. We refer to the distributions posted on the Distribution History webpage between 16 August 2023 to 19 September 2024. During this period, the Distribution History for this product incorrectly displayed duplicates of the September 2023 and December 2023 distribution records for the 2024 Financial Year, and resulted in an inaccurate subtotal for the 2024 Financial Year. This has been rectified and the correct distribution history has been displayed on our website from 19 September 2024. The Distribution data summary included in this product page was not impacted.
