Preservation Fund
The Coronation Preservation Pension Fund and Coronation Preservation Provident Fund (Coronation Preservation Funds) allow prior members of occupational pension or provident funds to preserve and grow their built-up retirement savings until their desired retirement dates. If, for example, you are changing jobs, or your occupational retirement fund closes down, a preservation fund may be an ideal solution.
HOW IT WORKS
You can make a single investment into a preservation fund from your original retirement fund, or you can transfer from another preservation fund. Note that you cannot make additional or ongoing contributions to a preservation fund once you’re invested.
When you invest, or transfer from another preservation fund, your savings may comprise a Vested Component, a Retirement Lump Sum Component and a Retirement Income Component. You choose the underlying investment options from our list of available funds, and this choice will be applied to all the components of your investment. Access to each component prior to and upon retirement will differ (see our Features and Benefits document for more detail).
When you invest in a preservation fund, you get to keep the tax benefits enjoyed within your original fund. This means that no tax is payable when you invest or transfer from another provider, and your investment returns within the preservation fund continue to grow tax-free.
The Coronation Preservation Funds are flexible, cost-effective and transparent. They are designed to allow you the flexibility to switch between investment options as your circumstances change. We do not charge initial fees or annual administration fees. The only fees payable are the annual management fees applicable to the underlying unit trust funds selected by the investor.

INVESTMENT OPTIONS & REGULATION 28 COMPLIANCE
Your underlying investment options are Coronation’s range of top-performing unit trusts. Note that the Coronation Preservation Funds are required to comply with Regulation 28 of the Pension Funds Act and Exchange Control legislation. This means that the funds require your investment option to comply with the following limits: a maximum exposure of 75% of the investment amount to equity investments; 45% to international investments; 25% to property.
Investing in Coronation Balanced Plus is the simplest way to achieve that through a single fund that uses Coronation's best investment views for retirement savers. Alternatively you may select from a wide range of Coronation unit trust funds and use our online calculator to ensure that you chose a combination of investment options that complies with these limits.
Coronation Client Services monitor compliance with these limits at the time of your initial investment and on each transaction thereafter.

As a result thereof, there may be limitations as to the appropriateness of any information given. It is therefore recommended that the reader first obtain the appropriate legal, tax, investment or other professional advice and formulate an appropriate investment strategy that would suit the risk profile of the reader prior to acting upon information. Neither Coronation Fund Managers Limited, Coronation Management Company (RF) (Pty) Ltd nor any other subsidiary of Coronation Fund Managers Limited (collectively “Coronation”) is acting, purporting to act and nor is it authorised to act in any way as an adviser. Coronation endeavours to provide accurate and timely information but we make no representation or warranty, express or implied, with respect to the correctness, accuracy or completeness of the information and opinions. Coronation does not undertake to update, modify or amend the information on a frequent basis or to advise any person if such information subsequently becomes inaccurate. Any representation or opinion is provided for information purposes only. Unit trusts should be considered a medium- to long-term investment. The value of units may go down as well as up, and is therefore not guaranteed. Past performance is not necessarily an indication of future performance. Unit trusts are allowed to engage in scrip lending and borrowing. Performance is calculated by Coronation for a lump sum investment with income distributions reinvested. All underlying price and distribution data is sourced from Morningstar. Performance figures are quoted after the deduction of all costs (including manager fees and trading costs) incurred within the fund. Note that individual investor performance may differ as a result of the actual investment date, the date of reinvestment of distributions and dividend withholding tax, where applicable. Where foreign securities are included in a fund it may be exposed to macroeconomic, settlement, political, tax, reporting or illiquidity risk factors that may be different to similar investments in the South African markets. Fluctuations or movements in exchange rates may cause the value of underlying investments to go up or down. The Coronation Money Market fund is not a bank deposit account. The fund has a constant price, and the total return is made up of interest received and any gain or loss made on any particular instrument, in most cases the return will merely have the effect of increasing or decreasing the daily yield, but in the case of abnormal losses it can have the effect of reducing the capital value of the portfolio. Excessive withdrawals could place the fund under liquidity pressures, in such circumstances a process of ring-fencing of redemption instructions and managed pay-outs over time may be followed. A fund of funds invests in collective investment schemes that levy their own fees and charges, which could result in a higher fee structure for this fund. A feeder fund invests in a single fund of a collective investment scheme, which levies its own charges and could result in a higher fee structure for the feeder fund. Coronation Management Company (RF) (Pty) Ltd is a Collective Investment Schemes Manager approved by the Financial Sector Conduct Authority in terms of the Collective Investment Schemes Control Act. Unit trusts are traded at ruling prices set on every day trading. Forward pricing is used. For Domestic Unit Trust Funds and Tax Free Investments, including rand-denominated International Unit Trust Funds, fund valuations take place at approximately 15h00 each business day, except at month end when the valuation is performed at approximately 17h00 (JSE market close). For these Funds, instructions must reach the Management Company before 14h00 (12h00 for the Money Market Fund) to ensure same day value. For Offshore Unit Trust Funds that are denominated in a foreign currency, fund valuations take place at approximately 17h00 each business day (Irish Time) and instructions must reach the Management Company before 12h00 (SA Time) to ensure the value of the same business day. For Retirement Products, fund valuations take place at approximately 15h00 each business day, except at month end when valuation is performed at approximately 17h00 (JSE market close). For these Products, instructions must reach the Management Company before 14h00 to ensure the value of the next business day.
