Any products and services described in this website are only available to persons in jurisdictions in which QIC and QIC Subsidiaries (as defined below) are permitted to market and sell such products and services. Without limiting the above matters, QIC does not warrant that it holds any authorisations or approvals required in all jurisdictions where the Information may be accessed. QIC does not and has no intention to offer or sell any funds, products or services in any jurisdiction where such an offer or sale would be unlawful under the relevant domestic law.

The Information is issued to and directed only at persons in the UK who are professional clients or eligible counterparties for the purposes of the FCA’s Conduct of Business Sourcebook (“Relevant Persons”).
The promotion of unregulated collective investment schemes by authorised persons is restricted in the UK pursuant to section 238 of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (the “Scheme Promotion Restriction”). However, the Information is exempt from the Scheme Promotion Restriction on the grounds that it is being issued to and directed only at Relevant Persons.

United States of America (“US”)
The Information is being issued to investors inside the US by QIC Investments No. 1 Pty Ltd (“QIC Investments”) (which is registered as an investment adviser with the US Securities and Exchange Commission) and QIC Investments is the only entity responsible for its contents in that jurisdiction. The Information is intended:
(a) solely to provide general information about QIC and its subsidiaries and the products and services available through QIC Investments; and
(b) only for investors (each a “Sophisticated Investor”) that are both:
- accredited investors within the meaning of the US Securities Act of 1933 (each an “Accredited Investor”); and

QIC Investments does not intend to solicit or make its services available to the general public in the US and many of QIC’s products and services are not available in the US. Under no circumstances should the Information be considered as an offer to sell, a recommendation regarding or a solicitation of an offer to buy any securities or interests in products or services sponsored by QIC Investments. Such offers or solicitations will be made in the US only to privately solicited investors that have been pre-qualified as an Accredited Investor or Qualified Purchaser (as applicable) and in accordance with relevant US securities laws. Accredited Investors and Qualified Purchasers are generally deemed sophisticated in financial matters such that they are capable of evaluating the merits and risks of prospective investments.
