Message from the Board

Looking after the medical profession is our history and is still core to what we do. The loyalty of members of the MAP Fund stands as testimony to our solid record. More than half of our members – 57% - have been with the fund for more than 10 years and dozens have been with the fund for more than 30 years.

MAP – powered by OneVue

MAP Funds Management is part of the expanding OneVue Group, a provider of superannuation and investment management solutions which has a record $3.075 billion in funds under administration as at 30 June 2015.

The last year has marked a phase of new beginnings and partnerships for MAP. Select Investment Partners became MAP’s investment manager in December. With a 14-year track record as a specialist provider of multi-asset portfolios, the company is a wholly-owned subsidiary of OneVue Holdings Limited.

Last November, member administration was also outsourced to Super Managers Funds Administration Pty Limited – a dedicated business with over 28 years’ experience. Members will benefit from broader capability in member administration.

Awards

Our track record on investment management is one of our strengths and our staff numbers have grown. We now have a team of eight dedicated to research, economics and portfolio management. To give an insight into the people and culture, we have published an overview of this in OneVue’s Annual Report which is available on our website. Strong teamwork has contributed to long-term award-winning

performance. Our top-performing MAP Cash offering this year won the prestigious SR50 Best Cash Return Award from SuperRatings from 2010 to 2015.

Our expertise was further recognised with the OneVue Group ranked as a finalist in the ‘Rising Star’ category of the SuperRatings awards for 2015. The awards recognise excellence in the superannuation industry.

Winning strategy

Strategy in your superannuation fund is so important to maximising benefits for your retirement. Starting a pension has the potential benefit of lowering the tax paid on your investment earnings. In the past financial year, members have converted $28.5 million into transition to retirement income streams and pensions.

The Year to Come

Members of the Fund have traditionally reaped the benefits of financial advice to help make the most of the fund. Recently, we restructured this arrangement to strengthen service to members via a specialised offering from experienced professionals.

You will have an opportunity to meet them in the near future, in conjunction with an economic and investment briefing.

In April 2016, the Trustee is committed to providing a further reduction in administration fees. Details will be provided to members in the March quarter.

With rapid change all around us, in the year 2016 we hope to see both past and new initiatives deliver further benefits to members.

A Word from Your Trustee

Leveraging the strength of the OneVue Group is an important priority for the MAP Trustee Board and this has been a key strategy through the year.

As the most effective way for MAP to meet our regulatory requirements, the MAP Investment Committee combined with other Investment Committees within the Group. The Committee membership continues to be independent of executives operating the investments.

The functions of the former FARRM (Finance Audit Remuneration and Risk Management) committee have also been streamlined and replaced with those of OneVue’s group-wide Audit, Risk Management and Compliance Committee and Human Resources, Nominations and Remuneration Committee.

Over the whole of last year, the Trustee focussed on building a stronger fund for your benefit. In order to give MAP members security and peace of mind about their investments, we aim to provide a high quality of service to our members and ensure that the MAP Superannuation Plan complies with all relevant legislation, audit and regulatory requirements.

The Board provides leadership and vision for the organisation and monitors investment strategies and returns for each product.

Outlook

We continue to strive to provide stronger services and to adapt to our changing environment.

The Board would like to thank you for entrusting your retirement savings to us. Congratulations should also go to the management team and staff for their dedication and effort in looking after you and your superannuation fund.

We will continue to work to create a superannuation fund that continues to meet the needs of members in a world of continuous change in investment markets, regulation and technology.

Karen Gibson Chair MAP Trustee Board

‘MAP Has Been Loyal to Me’ “MAP is a specialised fund which looks after the needs of doctors, dentists, their families and their staff. It’s a fund that understands the needs of those professionals.

What’s New

Contribution Caps for 2015/16

Keeping up with the ever-changing regulatory landscape is part of our promise to members at MAP. At present, the general concessional contribution cap is $30,000. If you are aged 49 years or over at 30 June 2015, the concessional cap is $35,000.

The non-concessional contribution cap is $180,000 (note that if you triggered the “bring-forward” rule prior to 1 July 2014, this cap may be lower.)

If you are under 65 years of age, you may be able to bring forward to the current financial year the next two years’ worth of non-concessional contributions, subject to a cap of $540,000.

Government Co-Contributions and Low-Income Super Contributions

If you make a personal after-tax contribution and your total income (conditions apply) is under the co- contributions upper threshold ($50,454 for 2015/16), the Government may contribute up to $500 per year. The maximum co-contribution payable reduces for every dollar your total income exceeds the lower threshold ($35,454 for 2015/16), until your total income reaches the upper threshold.

If you earn less than $37,000 a year (conditions apply), the government may allow a refund of super tax under the Low Income Super Contribution (LISC). If your employer makes concessional (before-tax) superannuation contributions on your behalf, you may be eligible for a refund of the contribution tax deducted from your superannuation account, which is paid directly to your account by the government. The LISC will not be payable for concessional contributions made on or after 1 July 2017.

Treatment of excess non-concessional contributions

Instead of paying excess non-concessional contributions tax, you can choose to release your excess non-concessional contributions and 85% of associated earnings from your super fund. The full amount of associated earnings will be included in your assessable income and taxed at your marginal tax rate. A 15% tax offset will be applied to recognise the associated earnings that have already been taxed in your super fund.

If you choose not to release your non-concessional contributions from your super fund, you will receive an assessment, where the excess will be taxed at the highest marginal tax rate.

Low Rate Cap

Lump sum payments of the taxable component are tax-free, where they are paid out once preservation age is reached prior to age 60. This cap is $195,000 for the 2015/16 year.

Early release of superannuation - terminal illness

People suffering from a terminal medical condition will now find it easier to access their superannuation funds early, after the federal government amended regulations.

Under the previous rules, a patient would only qualify for early access on the grounds of a “terminal medical condition” if they obtained certificates from two separate medical specialists (one of whom must be a specialist practising in an area related to the illness or injury) which shows they have less than 12 months to live. The government has extended this life expectancy period to 24 months, with effect from 1 July 2015.

This amended time period does not apply to the definition of terminal illness contained within an insurance policy which may be attached to a person’s superannuation account.

Preservation Age

Generally, an account-based pension can be established once you have reached your preservation age and have permanently retired from the workforce. From 1 July 2015, the minimum preservation age increased to 56.

Investment Option changes

The Trustee regularly reviews the investment strategies of the Investment Options available. After our recent review, both the target asset allocations and the objectives have been updated to reflect changed assumptions. These will be effective from 1 January 2016 and are outlined in the attachment to your 2015 member statement.

Investments: The year in review

Dragana Timotijevic Head of Research

The 2014/2015 financial year was marked by below average economic growth and generally lower returns from major asset classes, compared to the year before. Despite this, all multi-asset pools except the Capital Stable option achieved returns above investment objectives.

Global growth during the year continued to be modest by historical standards and characterised by divergence in growth rates between major economies. The US economy remained the engine of global growth, while the sluggish pace of expansion in Europe and Japan was the main drag on growth. China’s growth clearly decelerated and given the overall softness of global demand, growth in Australia remained patchy and sub-standard.

Policy response in major countries has reflected this diverging growth picture. The European Central Bank embarked on an expansive quantitative easing program, Japan adopted aggressive fiscal and monetary policies and the People’s Bank of China cut rates several times during the year. The Reserve Bank of Australia, too, cut interest rates twice, from 2.5% to 2%, the lowest level on record. In the US, however, the Federal Reserve Bank signalled to the market that the next move in interest rates is going to be up.

Other notable developments were sharp falls in commodity and oil prices, the continued strength of the US dollar and the significant depreciation of the Australian dollar.

The year end was marked with heightened volatility in both bond and equity markets, as renewed concerns over Greece coincided with wild gyrations on the Shanghai stock market and general uncertainty about the strength of global growth.

Australian Listed property was the strongest returning asset class. Most major asset classes, except

Emerging Markets Equities and Credit, delivered positive performances in the year to June 2015. The 18% fall in the A$ made a strong contribution to returns from unhedged foreign assets. As a result, unhedged International Equities generated a very strong return.

Portfolio Management

Towards the end of the year, the Investment Manager carried out an extensive review of objectives, asset allocations and asset class structures. These changes will be communicated to members.

Portfolio management focus remained on thoughtful use of the management fee budget and aiming to seek investments that provide significant benefits to the portfolio. These can manifest through either higher returns or lower risk by increasing diversification.

The portfolios maintained a relatively sizeable allocation to alternative assets as they tend to provide a more stable and consistent pattern of returns relative to equities. Index strategies continued to be mainly employed in managing Australian and International Equities.

New Investments

There were no new investment managers appointed during the financial year.

Redeemed Investments

The Fund redeemed from the Mercer Listed Infrastructure Fund. MAP prefers allocations to the infrastructure asset class through unlisted exposure.

Objectives and Strategies

In terms of single sector options, International Equities and Diversified Property achieved returns above their investment objectives. The Cash and Australian Equities options underperformed their objectives, with the former’s performance impacted by historically low cash rates.

* Standard Risk Measure Guidance; The Standard Risk Measure is based on industry guidance to allow customers to compare investment options that are expected to deliver a similar number of negative annual returns over any 20 year period. The Standard Risk Measure is not a complete assessment of all forms of investment risk, 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 a customer may require to meet their objectives. Further, it does not take into account the impact of administration fees and tax on the likelihood of a negative return. Customers should still ensure they are comfortable with the risks and potential losses associated with their chosen investment option/s.

Using Derivatives

The trustee may use derivatives to manage risk or gain exposure to types of investments where we believe it is appropriate. Derivatives include a wide assortment of instruments such as forwards, futures, options, swaps, and warrants. Derivatives are used to control risk, improve returns or to change asset class weightings as part of an overall investment strategy. Derivatives are not used for speculation. All derivatives are cash or security backed and no gearing of positions is allowed.

Allocating net earnings to members’ accounts

The value of the notional units in each investment option, and the unit price for each option, change with the value of all of the underlying assets of the investment option you have chosen.

Unit pricing is calculated using the following steps:

Step 1 – Each day we calculate the net value1 of the assets we attribute to each investment option.

Effective December 2014, this changed from three times per week to daily pricing.

Step 2 – This value is then divided by the number of units we have on issue in the investment option.

These steps give us the unit price at which we value units for the allotment of net earnings of the fund to members’ accounts. It also provides us with the unit price at which contributions, withdrawals, rollovers and switches between investment options are transacted. In the event of significant market movements, unit pricing may be delayed until a unit price can be struck which accurately reflects the underlying asset values.

This may result in a delay in the processing of the transactions listed above.

1Investments with external Investment Managers are valued daily, with the exception of some investments in alternative assets such as hedge funds and infrastructure, which may be priced monthly.

How are the account balances calculated?

The balance of a member account is equal to the number of units held multiplied by the applicable unit price.
