Australian Foundation Investment Company (AFIC) is one of Australia’s most trusted listed investment companies, helping investors access a diversified portfolio of leading Australian businesses since 1928. With a focus on long-term wealth creation, AFIC manages a portfolio valued at over $10.5 billion, investing in 60 to 80 carefully selected companies across a range of industries. This approach is designed to provide stability and consistent returns through all parts of the economic cycle, making AFIC a reliable option for investors seeking steady performance and capital growth.
AFIC is known for its very low management costs, with a management expense ratio of just 0.16% and no additional performance fees. This ensures that more of your investment works for you, rather than being eroded by fees—making AFIC one of the most accessible options in the market for both new and experienced investors. The company’s commitment to delivering long-term value is further reflected in its stable, fully franked dividends, helping shareholders achieve their financial goals through regular income and compounding returns.
Becoming a shareholder in AFIC is straightforward, whether you are just starting out or adding to your investment portfolio. Investors simply need a brokerage account—either through a full-service stockbroker for tailored advice, or an online broker for easy, low-cost trading. AFIC shares are listed on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX), providing a transparent and convenient way for individuals to own a piece of leading Australian companies and participate in the nation’s continued economic growth.
