A
SAFE HAVEN FOR AUSTRALIAN DOLLARS
For
many people, current stock market conditions represent an
opportunity to invest at low valuations. However, such
investors should have a long time horizon and have a
tolerance to shorter-term risk.
Historically, for those who do not wish to lock up capital
for long periods and who are looking for stable returns,
deposit accounts have been the preferred alternative.
Current low interest rates make this much less attractive
than in the past.
LM Investment Management of Australia offers an excellent
alternative. By investing in short-term fixed rate
mortgages, they are able to produce very competitive
returns that keep pace with market interest rates whilst
maintaining security of capital. Current interest rates
are:

Managed Performance Fund |
A$ 50,000 |

| LM
Mortgage Income Fund |

"The
top performing Income Fund for 2001 was the LM Mortgage
Income Fund 12 months, which returned 8.9% for the year to
31st December 2001. The fund invests in a
combination of cash deposits and fixed rate mortgages and,
therefore, provides solid returns for a LOW LEVEL OF RISK."

Investor Magazine
"Highest
return rating of major Australian mortgage income funds."

The
funds are likely to appeal to a variety of individuals,
including Australian nationals looking to "park" cash
at a higher rate of interest than that available from
deposit accounts, international investors looking for
stable returns with the possibility of capital growth from
currency appreciation. Any investor seeking capital
security within the highly regulated environment that
Australia offers.
