Notes
You should ensure that the funds that you select are appropriate for your needs and objectives. Please read the latest fund factsheets
(minimum disclosure documents), which offer a detailed explanation of the nature of the funds and their fee structures.
Unit prices and market values
• Some values on this statement are calculated using more decimal places than are displayed. You may find small rounding
differences when attempting to reconcile individual components back to totals.
Opening market values are based on the previous business day's unit price(s). Market values reported are based on the last
available unit price(s).
'Change in unit prices' reflects all realised and unrealised gains due to fluctuations in the units' market prices and exchange
rates where applicable.

Distributions
•
•
Distributions due: Any distributions that may be due will be included in the unit price as at the end of the quarter.
Distributions paid: Distributions paid during the calendar quarter will be shown on the statement for the applicable quarter.
Interest earned on investments
• Interest on lump sum investments may be applied to the investment amount and will be disclosed separately as 'Interest on
contribution' on the statement.
Total investment charge (TIC)
• The Total investment charge (TIC) is equal to the sum of the unit trust's latest available total expense ratio (TER) and
transaction costs. The TER is the unit trust's total expenses calculated over the last 3 years expressed as an annualised
percentage of the average value of the unit trust. If the actual TER or transaction costs are not available, an estimate is
used.
Please refer to the latest fund factsheets on our website www.mwexample.co.za for more detailed information regarding
the TER and transaction costs.
•
Annual administration fees
• The annual administration fee percentages applicable to your accounts are calculated using the market value across all local
platform, offshore platform and offshore endowment investments linked to your investor number (referred to as your ‘total
platform investments’).
For local platform accounts, your total platform investments are applied to the following fee tiers to calculate the applicable
annual administration fee percentages (excluding VAT): A maximum of 0.5% on the first R1m, 0.2% on the next R2m,
0.1% on the next R7m and 0.075% for the balance over R10m. For any investments in M/W unit trusts, the annual
administration fee percentage is a flat 0.2%.
Effective 1 March 2023, an investor is defined as a ‘new investor’ if on 28 February 2023, their investment value at M/W was
zero and they had no scheduled debit orders or regular contributions. If you are a new investor and your total
investment value is less than R50 000 (or the equivalent in US dollars), the above annual administration fee percentages will
be replaced by a flat annual administration fee of 1% (excluding VAT).
