About this fund
The Booster Geared Growth Fund is an actively managed aggressive fund that invests mainly in growth assets — predominantly international and Australasian shares — and uses gearing to increase its market exposure. Gearing means borrowing to invest: the fund holds more market exposure than the amount contributed, so its value moves more sharply than an ungeared shares fund, in both rising and falling markets. Designed for an investment horizon of at least 15 years, it has operated since 2009 and carries an annual fund charge of 1.38%.
