Platinum International Unit Trusts

With regards to Platinum International, is there any difference between investing in the unit trusts by filling out an application or buying its shares on the ASX – (PTM, PIXX, PAXX)?

 

 

A: Thanks for the question.

The new ASX listed funds (PIXX and PAXX) are feeders for Platinum’s main funds (Platinum International and Platinum Asia respectively), so there is no difference to buying the units directly on the ASX or  investing by filling out an application .

PTM (Platinum Asset Management)  is of course the fund manager itself, not a managed investment. If you buy shares in PTM, you are investing in the manager and the ability of the manger to grow revenue (ie more funds under management).
