Electronic communications

To the extent possible we choose to carry out transactions by means of electronic communication in accordance with the Electronic Transactions Act 1999 (Cth) and any regulations. You consent to using electronic means to form, or agree, or agree to, or bind you to, legal obligations in relation to the OIP, this Website and any relevant Fund (as applicable). Therefore, where you indicate through electronic means your agreement to, or acceptance of, terms and conditions, offers and other documents, you will be taken to have agreed to, or signed them.

Where we are required, by law or otherwise, to provide you with any documentation, you consent to the provision of that document electronically through the links on this Website or any other electronic means we choose to use. You must regularly check your email, the Website and the OIP for any documents. You may withdraw your consent to the giving of documents by electronic communication at any time by emailing us at admin@ipartners.com.au. We suggest that you print a copy of important documents, or file them electronically, for future reference.

The OIP

These Terms and Conditions constitute an agreement by iPartners to provide the OIP to you. Access to certain features and content on the Website require you to be signed up to the OIP. iPartners will only provide the OIP to users who meet its eligibility criteria (refer to "Eligibility" below in these Terms and Conditions). Investment in a Fund is only available to you once you have successfully signed up to the OIP.

Please be aware that whilst iPartners and its associates will not be bound to provide you with services prior to you signing up to the OIP, your use of the Website prior to that point (e.g. any browsing activity of the publicly accessible portions of the Website) will remain subject to these Terms and Conditions. For the sake of clarity, we note that successful access to the OIP does not guarantee your investment in a Fund will be accepted.

Funds

The Funds invest in a range of assets and may invest through interposed unit trusts or other structures. Each Fund may have a separate investment strategy. You can select which Fund you would like to invest in by clicking on the appropriate links on the website. Each Fund will have a term sheet and that term sheet will contain specific terms applicable to the relevant

Fund. Further reference material may also be hosted on the OIP.

Investments on the OIP

The terms of your investment in any Fund on the OIP are governed by:

  • these Terms and Conditions;
  • the information memorandum (Information Memorandum) or term sheet (Term Sheet) for the relevant Fund, including any materials attached to or provided with that Information Memorandum or Term Sheet;
  • the application form or other subscription document (if applicable) for the relevant Fund (the Application Materials); and
  • the trust deed, limited partnership deed or other governing document for the relevant Fund (the Constituent Document),

(together the Fund Documents).

The Fund Documents must be read carefully before you make a decision to invest. Copies of the Fund Documents will be made available on the Website or on request. It is only after the point in time when you agree to the Application Materials, cleared funds and any relevant supporting documents are received by the issuer of the relevant Fund (the Trustee), and the Trustee, in its absolute discretion, accepts your offer to invest, that the Trustee will issue interests (being units, partnership interests or other interests in the Fund (as the case may be)) in that Fund to you. If the Trustee rejects your offer to invest, your application will be returned to you without interest. Any investment in a Fund is subject to allocation which means that the Trustee reserves the right to return your funds or a portion of your funds. For specific details on your investment in a Fund and fees associated with your investment, refer to the Fund Documents for the relevant Fund. Any investment in a Fund is subject to the eligibility criteria (refer to "Eligibility" below in these Terms and Conditions). Following investment, the Trustee will provide you with an electronic confirmation of your capital commitment to the Fund. By clicking "I agree", you agree to be bound by the Fund Documents and meet all obligations in those documents in a timely manner.

If there is any conflict or inconsistency between the provisions of the Information Memorandum or Term Sheet, the Constituent Document and these Terms and Conditions, the terms of the Constituent Document will prevail to the extent of the conflict or inconsistency.

Anti-Money Laundering

In accordance with the Anti-Money Laundering and Counter-Terrorism Financing Act 2006 (Cth) (AML/CTF Act), we are required to identify, and verify the identity of, new investors (and in certain circumstances, existing investors) in a Fund. In order to do this, we must collect certain information (and documentation) from each investor. If you do not provide this information to us, we will not process your application and in these circumstances, will not be liable to you for any resulting loss. We may be required to collect further information from you in accordance with our ongoing customer due diligence obligations under the AML/CTF Act.

We are obliged under the AML/CTF Act to take and maintain copies of any information/documentation collected from you and, in certain circumstances, may be required to disclose said information to the Australian Transaction Reports and Analysis Centre (AUSTRAC) or other government bodies. We may be prohibited from informing you of such disclosure. Aside from disclosures permitted or required under the AML/CTF Act, we will keep your information confidential in accordance with relevant legislation.

By investing in a Fund, you are acknowledging that we may, in our absolute discretion, not issue units or other interests in the Fund to you, cancel any units or other interests in the Fund previously issued to you, delay, block or freeze any transaction or redeem any units or other interests in the Fund issued to you if we believe it necessary in order to comply with our AML/CTF legislative obligations. In these circumstances, we will not be liable for any resulting loss. It is an offence to provide false or misleading information to us.

FATCA and CRS

Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA) is a US law that came into effect on 1 July 2014, which impacts investors worldwide. FATCA attempts to minimise US income tax avoidance by US persons investing in assets outside the US, including through their investments in Foreign Financial Institutions. FATCA requires reporting of US persons’ direct and indirect ownership of non-US accounts and non-US entities to the US Internal Revenue Service (IRS).

The Common Reporting Standard (CRS) is the single global standard for the collection, reporting and exchange of financial account information on foreign tax residents, which came into effect on 1 July 2017. CRS was developed by the OECD (Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development) and over 100 countries have agreed to share information on tax residents.

In order to comply with these obligations, iPartners collects information about you as necessary to verify your FATCA and CRS status.

iPartners is required to provide information about the following investors to the ATO:

  • Investors identified as US citizens or tax residents (information about corporations and trusts with US substantial owners or controlling persons will also be reported); and
  • Investors identified as foreign tax residents as per reportable jurisdictions; and
  • Investors who do not confirm their FATCA and CRS status.
