Unlike traditional investment vehicles such as mutual funds or ETFs (Exchange-Traded Funds), direct indexing empowers investors to own individual shares within an index. This facilitates personalized portfolios that align with ethical values, financial goals, or specific sector exposures. This method democratizes the process of ethical investing and introduces a more nuanced approach to portfolio management. This ensures your investments truly reflect your personal convictions and financial aspirations.

The MB fund helped to launch Australia’s first direct indexing service. This innovative offering is designed to cater to a broad spectrum of investment structures, including superannuation, allowing for a degree of customization previously reserved for high-net-worth individuals.

As this investment strategy begins to gain traction in Australia, following over a decade of success in the US, the IMAP Direct Indexing Conference will track the progress. It looks at which companies are involved and what are the regulatory issues in Australia.
