This asset category includes investments with all external investment managers and pooled superannuation trusts (PSTs) located or registered in Australia.
An external investment manager is a person appointed by the trustee of the SMSF in accordance with section 124 of the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Act 1993 to make investments on behalf of the SMSF. Investments managed by an external investment manager are called managed funds.
A managed fund that is registered in Australia is an Australian managed investment even if it invests in overseas assets.
