Part Reporting Form SRF 705.2 - Financial Sector (Collection of Data) (reporting standard) determination No. 46 of 2023 - Reporting Form SRF 705.2 | Zoe
Where the data is applicable to all members in the investment option, the RSE licensee must report data for that investment option and report ‘ALL’ for the remaining RSE structure levels.
Where the data varies depending on the superannuation product and/or investment menu, the RSE licensee must report data for each relevant combination of superannuation product, investment menu and investment option.
Therefore, the RSE does not need to report every combination of superannuation product, investment menu and investment option that they have, only those combinations that lead to distinct return objectives, returns or volatilities being reported.
Where the investment option type is Separately Managed Account or Managed Discretionary Account, report the investment objective of the model portfolio.
Table 1: Investment objectives
Report the investment objectives detailed in the table below for each investment option as at the end of the reporting period. Where the investment objectives differ by superannuation product or investment menu, this should be indicated by use of the appropriate identifier in these fields, otherwise make use of “ALL” as described above.
