Dexus Australian Property Fund

An established portfolio of commercial property investments


Dexus Australian Property Fund (DAPF) aims to provide investors with income and long-term capital growth through access to a portfolio of property investments. These investments include owning property directly, holding units in the Dexus Wholesale Australian Property Fund, Australian-listed property securities and cash.

The fund provides investors with access to a diversified portfolio of commercial property investments, through indirect ownership of established office, retail and industrial assets, with a focus on income returns and potential for capital growth. The portfolio is well-diversified with investments located in different markets throughout Australia and a large tenant base comprised of corporate and government tenants.  Please speak to your financial adviser or view our platform list to invest.

  • Description of target market for this fund

    This product is likely to be appropriate for a consumer seeking capital growth and regular income to be used as a small allocation within a portfolio where the consumer has a long investment timeframe and a low-to-medium risk/return profile.

  • Withdrawal frequency 

    Generally, withdrawal requests will be processed and paid within 12 months of receipt. 

    However, if the Responsible Entity is unable to realise sufficient assets due to circumstances beyond its control, the withdrawal request may take longer than 12 months to be satisfied. Investors should be aware that withdrawal requests can only be processed and met while the Fund is liquid. If the Fund ceases to be liquid for the purposes of the Corporations Act, the Responsible Entity will not meet withdrawal requests. 

  • Risk profile 

    The fund may be suitable for a consumer with a low-to-medium risk profile, seeking to minimise potential losses (e.g. has the ability to bear up to two negative returns over a 20-year period (SRM 3)) and is comfortable with a moderate target return profile. The risks specific to the fund may include or be associated with:

    • Property investments – factors such as the quality of underlying properties, types of property (such as retail, commercial, office or logistics), tenancy and vacancy rates and geographic location may affect the fund's performance.

    • Liquidity – assets subject to liquidity risk may be difficult to trade and it may take longer for their full value to be realised, and in circumstances where the fund's portfolio ceases to be ‘liquid’ for Corporations Act purposes, there may be significant delays or a freeze on withdrawal requests. Market conditions may adversely impact the liquidity of assets held in a fund portfolio.

    • Interest rates – may adversely change and impact the fund's performance including the risk of capital loss in a rising interest rate environment.

    • Gearing – has the effect of magnifying the fund's returns, both positive and negative.

    • Derivatives – the use of derivatives may magnify any losses incurred.

    • Share market investments – the value of the fund's investment in listed securities may decrease or be more volatile as a result of adverse share market movements.

What are the key risks?

Risks specific to the fund include property investments, share market investments, interest rates, gearing and the use of debt, derivatives, liquidity and fund termination risks. Please refer to the Product Disclosure Statement and Derivative Risk Statement (which can be obtained by contacting us) for more information.

The fund's risk level is based on the estimated number of negative annual returns for the fund over any 20 year period and is not a complete assessment of the risks of investing in the fund. For instance, it does not detail what the size of a negative return could be or the potential for a positive return to be less than an investor may require to meet their objectives. Consequently, before choosing to invest or reinvest in the fund, you should read the fund's PDS and incorporated information and consider factors such as the likely investment return, the risks of investing and your investment timeframe.
