Coverage
- Unlisted assets are 20% of the option. They are disclosed by asset or by fund manager name, not as ASX shares, so they are outside this site's share counts.
- Listed shares are not tagged internal or external in the disclosure rules, so the internal share shown covers only fixed income and unlisted assets, where funds must say.
