Diversification
Diversification is a powerful antidote to uncertainly. We monitor and constantly review the investment portfolio to lessen exposure in asset classes held and maintain a balanced portfolio.
Diversification amongst debt issuers, and maintaining credit worthiness of the overall fixed income portfolio as reflected in the credit rating of the security is our focus. That is why our approach is careful meaningful, measured diversification across asset classes to give our contributors the best insurance against uncertainly.
Income
During uncertain times it becomes a great deal more tolerable if your investment is paying a dividend. Our investment portfolio continues to contribute a good cash flow.
Why save with SMF?
Flexibility
Put in as little or as much as you like. Pay in a lump sum, or drip feed as little as $10.00 per week - then watch it grow.

If you decide to change jobs you can still keep your fund going. Simply ask your new employer to make contributions on your behalf to Security Mutual Fund
Low fees
There is no entry fee and no administration fees charged to your individual account.
Freedom
There is no age, health or employment restrictions. Your personal Security Mutual Fund scheme is independent and remains unchanged as long as you continue with it. If you need to suspend payments and take an 'investment holiday' no penalties are charged.
Security
Your funds are invested in fixed term deposits, cash and a range of stocks with records of steady earnings. This gives you exposure to a range of solidly backed companies, including a high proportion of fixed-income shares.
