Perpetual Credit Income Trust
Investment Manager’s Report 
For the period 22 May 2018 to 30 June 2019

Investment Manager’s report

Dear Investors,

We are pleased to present the first Annual Financial Report for the Perpetual Credit Income Trust – ASX Code 
PCI (‘the Trust’). The Trust commenced trading on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) on 14 May 2019. 

Strong demand from investors saw the maximum A$440 million being raised through the issue of 400,000,000 
units at a subscription price of A$1.10 per unit. As at 30 June 2019, the Trust had a market capitalisation of 
A$448 million and a net asset value per unit of $1.103.

The Trust is designed to deliver sustainable monthly income with a target total return of the RBA Cash Rate 
plus 3.25% per annum (net of fees) through the economic cycle. 

To achieve this, the Trust’s portfolio will typically contain 50-100 domestic and global credit and fixed income 
assets, diversified by asset type, credit quality, maturity, country and issuer through investment in corporate 
bonds, floating rate notes, securitised assets and private debt (mainly corporate loans).

The Trust’s flexible investment strategy means the Manager can actively access a broad opportunity set to 
address changing market conditions. Due to Perpetual Limited’s size and market position, the Trust can offer 
investors access to credit and fixed income assets not typically available to individual investors.

The experienced Portfolio Manager for the Trust, Michael Korber, supported by the broader Credit and Fixed 
Income  team within Perpetual Investments, have been adopting a methodical and disciplined approach to 
investing the cash holdings raised during the initial public offer period (IPO) of the Trust. 

As noted in the Trust’s Product Disclosure Statement, dated 8 March 2019 (PDS), the time frame to achieve 
target portfolio construction was three months from listing on the ASX. We are pleased to note this target has 
now been achieved, with the assets of the Trust fully invested by late July 2019.

The Trust’s first distribution of 0.0854 cents per unit was announced for June 2019 with payment to investors 
occurring on 9 July 2019. 

Despite the short period between listing and 30 June 2019, unitholder return* has been 1.9%, exceeding the 
RBA Cash Rate over this period by 1.7%.

The June 2019 Monthly Investment Report includes an update on global and domestic credit markets and 
detail on how the Trust’s assets are being invested. We would encourage you to read the Monthly Investment 
Reports, as they provide valuable information on the insights of the Manager. These are released to ASX and 
are also available on the ASX Announcements page, found under the Investor tab, on the Trust’s website  
www.perpetualincome.com.au. 

A tax guide, to help you complete your annual tax return, has also been released to ASX and is available on the 
Trust’s website.

We would like to take this opportunity to again thank all investors for your support and we look forward to 
providing you with further updates on the progress of the Trust’s investments over the coming year.

Perpetual Investments 

*Total unitholder return – ASX unit price performance with reinvestment of distributions has been calculated on 
the growth of the ASX unit price and assumes reinvestment of distributions on the ex-date. Past performance is 
not indicative of future performance. Since inception return is from listing on 14 May 2019, initial price used is 
the subscription price of $1.10.

Perpetual Credit Income Trust
Corporate Governance Statement 
For the year ended 30 June 2019

Background

Perpetual Trust Services Limited ACN 000 142 049, AFS Licence No. 236648 (“Responsible Entity”) is the 
responsible entity for the Perpetual Credit Income Trust (“Trust”), a registered managed investment scheme 
that is listed on the Australian Securities Exchange (“ASX”).

The Responsible Entity is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Perpetual Limited (ASX:PPT) (“Perpetual”).

The Responsible Entity is reliant on Perpetual for access to adequate resources including directors, 
management, staff, functional support (such as company secretarial, responsible managers, legal, compliance 
and risk, finance) and financial resources. During the year and up to the date of this report, Perpetual has at all 
times made such resources available to the Responsible Entity.

In operating the Trust the Responsible Entity’s overarching principle is to always act in good faith and in the 
best interests of the Trust’s unitholders, in accordance with our fiduciary duty. The Responsible Entity’s duties 
and obligations in relation to the Trust principally arise from: the Constitution of the Trust; the Compliance Plan 
for the Trust; the Corporations Act 2001 (“Act”); the ASX Listing Rules; the Responsible Entity’s Australian 
Financial Services License; relevant regulatory guidance; relevant contractual arrangements; and other 
applicable laws and regulations. 

Corporate Governance

At Perpetual, good corporate governance includes a genuine commitment to the ASX Corporate Governance 
Council Principles and Recommendations (ASX Principles).

The Directors of the Responsible Entity are committed to implementing high standards of corporate governance 
in operating the Trust and, to the extent applicable to registered schemes, are guided by the values and 
principles set out in Perpetual’s Corporate Responsibility Statement and the ASX Corporate Governance 
Council’s Corporate Governance Principles and Recommendations (“Principles”). The Responsible Entity 
is pleased to advise that, to the extent the Principles are applicable to registered schemes; its practices are 
largely consistent with the Principles.

As a leading independent responsible entity, the Responsible Entity operates a number of registered managed 
investment schemes (“Schemes”). The Schemes include the Trust as well as other schemes that are listed 
on the ASX. The Responsible Entity’s approach in relation to corporate governance in operating the Trust is 
consistent with its approach in relation to the Schemes generally.

The Responsible Entity addresses each of the Principles that are applicable to externally managed listed 
entities in relation to the Schemes, including the Trust, for the year ended 30 June 2019. This corporate 
governance statement is current as at the date of the Trust’s financial report and has been approved by the 
Responsible Entity Board.

Principle 1 – Lay solid foundations for management and oversight

The role of the Responsible Entity’s Board (“RE Board”) is generally to set objectives and goals for the 
operation of the Responsible Entity and the Schemes, to oversee the Responsible Entity’s management, 
to regularly review performance and to monitor the Responsible Entity’s affairs acting in the best interests 
of the unitholders of each of the Schemes. The RE Board is accountable to the unitholders of each of the 
Schemes, and is responsible for approving the Responsible Entity’s overall objectives and overseeing their 
implementation in discharging their duties and obligations and operating the Schemes.

The role of the Responsible Entity’s management is to manage the business of the Responsible Entity in 
operating the Schemes. The RE Board delegates to management all matters not reserved to the RE Board, 
including the day-to-day management of the Responsible Entity and the operation of the Schemes. Directors, 
management and staff are guided by Perpetual’s Code of Conduct which is designed to assist them in making 
ethical business decisions.

As the RE Board consists of only executive directors, a Compliance Committee is appointed in relation to each 
of the Schemes (refer to Principle 7). The Committee has a majority of independent members and is chaired by 
an independent member who is not the chair of the RE Board.

 Principle 3 – Promote ethical and responsible decision-making

known as “The Way We Work” within which it carries on its business and deals with its stakeholders. These 
apply to all directors and employees of Perpetual, and the Responsible Entity. The Code of Conduct and

its business and is embedded into Perpetual’s performance management process. The Code of Conduct is

Principle 4 – Safeguard integrity in financial reporting

The RE Board does not have an audit committee. Under delegation by the RE Board, the Responsible Entity 
Services management and staff operate within a Compliance and Risk Management framework with specific 
policies and procedures designed to ensure that the Trust’s 

• 

 financial reports are true and fair and meet high standards of disclosure and audit integrity; and

•  other reports released on ASX are materially accurate and balanced.

This includes policies relating to the preparation, review and sign off process required for the Trust’s financial 
reports including the operation of an Internal Review Accounts Committee and RE Board approval process, the 
engagement of the Trust independent auditors and the review and release of certain reports on the ASX.

The declarations under section 295A of the Corporations Act 2001 (the Act) provide formal statements to 
the RE Board in relation to the Trust (refer to Principle 7). The declarations confirm the matters required by 
the Act in connection with financial reporting. The Responsible Entity receives confirmations from the service 
providers involved in financial reporting and management of the Trust, including the Investment Manager. 
These confirmations together with the overarching Responsible Entity’s Risk and Compliance Framework which 
includes the service provider oversight framework assist its staff in making the declarations provided under 
section 295A of the Act. 

The Responsible Entity manages the engagement and monitoring of independent ‘external’ auditors for the 
Trust. The RE Board receives periodic reports from the external auditors in relation to financial reporting and 
the compliance plan for the Trust.

 Principle 5 – Make timely and balanced disclosure

The Responsible Entity has a continuous disclosure policy to ensure compliance with the continuous 
disclosure requirements of the Act and the ASX Listing Rules in relation to the Trust. The policy requires timely 
disclosure of information to be reported to the Responsible Entity’s management and/or Directors to ensure 
that, information that a reasonable person would expect to have a material effect on the unit price or would 
influence an investment decision in relation to any of the Trust, is disclosed to the market. The Responsible 
Entity’s employees assist management and/or the Directors in making disclosures to the ASX after appropriate 
consultation. The Responsible Entity requires service providers, including the Investment Manager, to comply 
with its policy in relation to continuous disclosure for the Trust. 

 Principle 6 – Respect the rights of unitholders

The Responsible Entity is committed to ensuring timely and accurate information about the Trust is available 
to security holders via the Trust’s website. All ASX announcements are promptly posted on the Trust’s website: 
https://www.perpetual.com.au/income/pci-investors/asx-announcements. The annual and half year results 
financial statements and other communication materials are also published on the website.

Complaints Handling Policy. The Responsible Entity is a member of the Australian Financial Complaints 
Authority (AFCA), an independent dispute resolution body, which is available to unitholders in the event that any 
complaints cannot be satisfactorily resolved by the Responsible Entity.

 Principle 7 – Recognise and manage risk

The RE values the importance of robust risk management systems and maintains a current risk register as 
part of its formal risk management program. The RE has established a Compliance Committee, comprised of 
Virginia Malley, Michelene Collopy (Chairperson) and Michael Vainauskas. The Compliance Committee meets 
at least quarterly. In 2018/19 financial reporting period all five meetings were attended by all Compliance 
Committee members.

Compliance Committee is responsible for compliance matters regarding the RE’s Compliance Plan and 
Constitution and the Corporations Act.

They are chaired by external members.

1.  The RE manages the engagement and monitoring of independent external auditors for the Trust. The RE 

board receives periodic reports in relation to financial reporting and the compliance plan audit outcomes for 
the Trust. 

Perpetual has a risk management framework in place which is reviewed annually. The declarations under 
section 295A of the Act provide assurance regarding sound system of risk management and internal control 
and that the system is operating effectively in all material respects in relation to financial reporting risks. The 
RE also receives appropriate declarations from the service providers involved in financial reporting. 

-8-

Perpetual Credit Income Trust
Corporate Governance Statement 
For the year ended 30 June 2019 
(continued)

Perpetual has an Internal Audit function which reports functionally to Perpetual Limited Audit Risk & 
Compliance Committee (ARCC), and for administrative purposes, through the General Manager – Risk & 
Internal Audit, and is independent from the external auditor. Perpetual Internal Audit establishes a risk based 
audit plan each year that is approved formally by the ARCC, and executes internal audits of Perpetual Business 
Units in accordance with the plan. The plan is re-assessed quarterly and reviewed to ensure that it is dynamic 
and continues to address the key risks faced by the Group. Progress against the plan, changes to the plan, and 
the results of audit activity are reported quarterly to the ARCC.

The Investment Manager incorporates ESG matters into its investment analysis and decision-making practices.

The Investment Manager‘s approach is to seek the best risk-adjusted investment returns over specified time 
periods. This obligation is satisfied by focusing on both the quality and value of

possible investments. This investment philosophy recognises that while traditional financial measures are 
an important consideration, extra-financial factors such as ESG matters can also influence investment 
performance. Consistent with this philosophy, to the extent that information is available, the Investment 
Manager takes into account ESG issues in investment analysis and decision making.

At this stage, the Investment Manager considers ESG matters primarily from a risk perspective. Analysis may 
include:

•  What ESG issues (risks) the investment is exposed to

•  How material the ESG issues are, taking into account industry and individual issuer exposures

•  What impact material ESG issues are likely to have on the value, earnings and future prospects of the 

investment, and

•  How well ESG issues are being managed, and therefore how likely the possible impacts are to occur.

Considering ESG factors in investment decision-making can have three possible outcomes:

1.  The risks are too high compared to the likely reward and so the investment is not made or is fully or partly 

sold.

2.  The risks are significant, but the likely reward is sufficient compensation for the risk and so an investment is 

made or is held.

3.  The risks are low and so ESG factors are not a major consideration in making the investment decision.

 Principle 8 – Remunerate fairly and responsibly

The fees and expenses which the RE is permitted to pay out of the assets of the Trust are set out in the Trust 
constitution. The Trust financial statements provide details of all fees and expenses paid by the Trust during the 
financial period.

The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of this financial report are set out below. These
policies have been consistently applied during the reporting period presented, unless otherwise stated.

(a) Basis of preparation

The financial report is a general purpose financial report which has been prepared in accordance with the
Australian Accounting Standards and Interpretations issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board
(AASB) and the Corporations Act 2001 in Australia.

The financial report is prepared on the basis of fair value measurement of assets and liabilities except where
otherwise stated.

Compliance with International Financial Reporting Standards

The financial report of the Trust also complies with International Financial Reporting Standards and
Interpretations issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.

Functional and presentation currency

The financial report is presented in Australian dollars, which is the Trust's functional currency.

Use of estimates

Management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements.
These estimates and associated assumptions are continuously evaluated and are based on historical experience
and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the
circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

For the majority of the Trust's financial instruments, quoted market prices are readily available. However, when
certain financial instruments are fairly valued using valuation techniques (for example, pricing models) observable
data is used to the extent practicable. Management may be required to make estimates which may be based on
assumptions and any changes in assumptions would affect the reported fair value of financial instruments.

AASB 9 requires the use of an expected credit loss (ECL) impairment model, which does not materially impact
the Trust (refer to note 2(f)).

2 Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)

(b) New accounting standards and interpretations

New and amended accounting standards adopted by the Trust

The following Australian Accounting Standards have been adopted by the Trust for reporting period beginning 22
May 2018.

(i) AASB 9 Financial Instruments

AASB 9 addresses the classification, measurement and derecognition of financial assets and financial liabilities.
It replaces the multiple classification and measurement models in AASB 139 with a new model that classifies
financial instruments based on the business model within which the financial instruments are managed, and
whether the contractual cash flows under the instrument solely represent the payment of principal and interest. It
also introduces revised rules around hedge accounting and impairment.

Under AASB 9, financial instruments are classified as:

• Amortised cost if the objective of the business model is to hold the financial instruments to collect contractual
cash flows only and the contractual cash flows under the instrument represent solely payments of principal and
interest (SPPI);

• Fair value through other comprehensive income if the objective of the business model is to hold the financial
instruments both to collect contractual cash flows from SPPI and for the purpose of sale; or

• All other financial instruments must be recognised at fair value through profit or loss. An entity may however, at
initial recognition, irrevocably designate a financial instrument as measured at fair value through profit or loss if
doing so eliminates or significantly reduces a measurement or recognition inconsistency.

Derivative and equity instruments are measured at fair value through profit or loss unless, for equity instruments
not held for trading, an irrevocable option is taken to measure at fair value through other comprehensive income.

A debt instrument is measured at amortised cost if the objective of the business model is to hold the financial
asset for the collection of the contractual cash flows and the contractual cash flows under the instrument
represent solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI). A debt instrument is measured at fair value through
other comprehensive income if the objective of the business model is to hold the financial asset both to collect
contractual cash flows from SPPI and to sell.

All other debt instruments must be recognised at fair value through profit or loss. An entity may however, at initial
recognition, irrevocably designate a financial asset as measured at fair value through profit or loss if doing so
eliminates or significantly reduces a measurement or recognition inconsistency.

(ii) AASB 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers

AASB 15 establishes a single revenue recognition framework using a five-step model based on the transfer of
goods and services and the consideration expected to be received in return for that transfer. The standard was
applicable to the Trust from 22 May 2018.

The Trust’s main source of income is investment income, in the form of gains on financial instruments held at fair
value as well as interest and distributions income. All of these income types are outside the scope of the
standard. Accordingly, the new revenue recognition rules do not have a significant impact on the Trust's
accounting policies or the amounts recognised in the financial statements.

2 Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)

(b) New accounting standards and interpretations (continued)

New accounting standards and interpretations not yet adopted

A number of new standards, amendments to standards and interpretations are effective for annual periods
beginning after 1 January 2019. Management has made an assessment and concluded that none of these are
expected to have a material impact on the financial statements.

(c) Financial instruments

(i) Classification

The Trust classifies its investments based on its business model for managing those financial assets and their
contractual cash flow characteristics. The Trust’s portfolio of financial assets is managed and its performance is
evaluated on a fair value basis in accordance with the Trust’s documented investment strategy. The Trust
evaluates the information about its investments on a fair value basis together with other related financial
information.

Derivatives and unlisted unit trusts are measured at fair value through profit or loss.

For debt securities, the contractual cash flows are solely payments of principal and interest, however, they are
neither held for collecting contractual cash flows nor held for collecting contractual cash flows and for sale. The
collection of contractual cash flows is only incidental to achieving the Trust’s business model’s objective.
Consequently, the debt securities are measured at fair value through profit or loss.

The Trust holds debt securities, unlisted unit trusts and derivatives, these securities are mandatorily classified as
fair value through profit or loss.

Derivative contracts that have a negative fair value are presented as financial liabilities at fair value through profit
or loss.

(ii) Recognition/derecognition

The Trust recognises financial assets and liabilities on the date it becomes party to the purchase contractual
agreement (trade date) and recognises changes in fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities from this
date.

Investments are derecognised on the date the Trust becomes party to the sale contractual agreement (trade
date).

(iii) Measurement

At initial recognition, a financial asset or liability is measured at fair value. Transaction costs are expensed in
profit or loss as incurred. Subsequently all financial assets and liabilities are measured at fair value without any
deduction for estimated future selling cost. Gains and losses arising from changes in the fair value measurement
are included in profit or loss in the period in which they arise.

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction
between market participants at the measurement date. Further details of fair value measurement are disclosed in
note 16(d).

2 Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)

(c) Financial instruments (continued)

(iv) Offsetting financial instruments

Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount is reported in the balance sheet when there is a
legally enforceable right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis, or
realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

(d) Net assets attributable to unitholders

During the period, applications were received for the initial subscription offer.

The Trust is a closed-end vehicle and accordingly there are no redemptions by investors. Instead, while the Trust
is listed, unitholders who wish to exit their investment will be able to do so via the ASX.

Units in the Trust are listed on the ASX and traded by unitholders. The units can be traded on the ASX at any
time for cash based on the listed price. While the Trust is listed and liquidity is generally expected to exist in the
secondary market (ASX), there are no guarantees that an active trading market with sufficient liquidity will be
available.

The units issued by the Trust have been classified as equity as the Trust satisfies all criteria for the classification
of puttable financial instruments as equity under AASB 132 Financial Instruments: Presentation.

(e) Cash and cash equivalents

For the purpose of presentation in the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash at bank,
margin accounts, other short term and highly liquid financial assets with a maturity period of three months or less
from the date of acquisition that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an
insignificant risk of changes in value.

Margin accounts comprise cash held as collateral for derivative transactions. The cash is held by the broker and
is only available to meet margin calls.

(f) Receivables

Receivables include accrued income and receivables for securities sold. Amounts are generally received within
30 days of being accrued for.

These amounts are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost. At each
reporting date, the Trust shall measure the loss allowance on receivables at an amount equal to the lifetime
expected credit losses if the credit risk has increased significantly since initial recognition. If, at the reporting date,
the credit risk has not increased significantly since initial recognition, the Trust shall measure the loss allowance
at an amount equal to 12-month expected credit losses. Significant financial difficulties of the counterparty,
probability that the counterparty will enter bankruptcy or financial reorganisation, and default in payments are all
considered indicators that a loss allowance may be required. If the credit risk increases to the point that it is
considered to be credit impaired, interest income will be calculated based on the gross carrying amount adjusted
for the loss allowance.

The amount of the impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss within other operating expenses. When a trade
receivable for which an impairment allowance had been recognised becomes uncollectible in a subsequent
period, it is written off against the allowance account. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off
are credited against other operating expenses in profit or loss.

2 Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)

(g) Payables

Payables include accrued expenses owing by the Trust which are unpaid at the end of the reporting date.
Amounts are generally paid within 30 days of being accrued for.

(h) Investment income

Interest income from financial assets at amortised cost is recognised using the effective interest method and
includes interest from cash and cash equivalents.

Interest from financial assets at fair value through profit or loss is determined based on the contractual coupon
interest rate and includes interest from debt securities. Other changes in fair value for such instruments are
recorded in accordance with the accounting policies described in note 2(c).

Distribution income from financial assets at fair value through profit or loss is recognised in profit or loss when the
Trust's right to receive payment is established.

(i) Expenses

All expenses, including Responsible Entity's fees, are recognised in profit or loss on an accruals basis.

(j)

Income tax

The Trust is not subject to income tax provided the taxable income of the Trust is attributed in full to its
unitholders each financial year either by way of cash or reinvestment. Unitholders are subject to income tax at
their own marginal tax rates on amounts attributable to them.

The benefits of foreign tax paid are passed on to unitholders, providing certain conditions are met.

(k) Distributions

Distributions are payable as set out in the Trust's Constitution. Such distributions are recognised as payable
when they are determined by the Responsible Entity of the Trust.

(l) Goods and Services Tax

The Goods and Services Tax (GST) is incurred on the cost of various services provided to the Trust by third
parties. The Trust qualifies for Reduced Input Tax Credit; hence expenses such as Responsible Entity's fees
have been recognised in profit or loss net of the amount of GST recoverable from the Australian Taxation Office.
Payables are stated with the amount of GST included. The net amount of GST recoverable is included in
receivables in the balance sheet. Cash flows are included in the statement of cash flows on a gross basis.

(m) Foreign currency translation

Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at
the date of the transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such
transactions and from the translations at year end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated
in foreign currencies are recognised in profit or loss.

2 Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)

(m) Foreign currency translation (continued)

Non-monetary items that are measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates
at the date when fair value was determined. Translation differences on assets and liabilities carried at fair value
are reported in profit or loss on a net basis within net gains/(losses) on financial instruments at fair value through
profit or loss.

(n) Comparatives

This is the first period of operations of the Trust and hence there are no prior period comparatives. There were no
transactions between the date of constitution and date of registration.

declared but unpaid distributions, calculated in accordance with the Responsible Entity’s Unit pricing and
Valuation Policy and Australian Accounting Standards (AAS). The management fees are calculated and accrued
daily and paid monthly in arrears.

The Manager is appointed for an initial term of ten years unless terminated earlier (Initial Term). The
management agreement will be automatically extended for a further five year term on the expiry of the Initial
Term (Extended Term) unless terminated earlier in accordance with its terms.

If the Management Agreement is terminated during the term, then in certain circumstances the Manager will be
entitled to a termination payment equal to the Management fee rate multiplied by the number of years in the Initial
Term or Extended Term and the value of the total Portfolio as at the termination date, reduced by one one
hundred and twentieth (1/120) for Initial Term or one sixtieth (1/60) for Extended Term for each whole calendar
month that has elapsed between the commencement date or the commencement of the Extended Term and the
termination date.

In addition, the Manager agreed to pay all of the costs incurred in raising capital under the Offer in accordance
with the PDS dated 8 March 2019. If the Management agreement is terminated during the Initial Term, then in
certain circumstances the Manager will be entitled to be reimbursed for these costs, reduced by one one hundred

A structured entity is an entity that has been designed so that voting or similar rights are not the dominant factor
in deciding control and the relevant activities are directed by means of contractual arrangements.

The Trust considers all investments in unlisted unit trusts to be structured entities. The Trust invests in unlisted
unit trusts for the purpose of capital appreciation and earning investment income.

15 Structured entities (continued)

The unlisted unit trusts are invested in accordance with the investment strategy by their respective investment
managers. The return of the unlisted unit trusts is exposed to the variability of the performance of their
investments. The unlisted unit trusts finance their operations by issuing redeemable units which are puttable at
the holder's option and entitle the holder to a proportional stake in the respective trusts' net assets and
distributions.

The Trust's exposure to structured entities at 30 June 2019 was $49,711,697.

The fair value of these entities is included in financial assets at fair value through profit or loss in the balance
sheet.

The Trust's maximum exposure to loss from its interests in the structured entities is equal to the total fair value of
its investments in these entities as there are no off balance sheet exposures relating to them. The Trust's
exposure to any risk from the structured entities will cease when these investments are disposed of.

The Trust does not have current commitments or intentions and contractual obligations to provide financial or
other support to the structured entities. There are no loans or advances currently made to these entities.

There are no significant restrictions on the ability of the structured entities to transfer funds to the Trust in the
form of cash distributions.

Unconsolidated subsidiaries

The Trust applies the investment entity exception to consolidation available under AASB 10 Consolidated
Financial Statements and measures its subsidiaries at fair value through profit or loss.

The following unconsolidated structured entities are considered to be the Trust's subsidiaries at the reporting

The Trust's activities expose it to a variety of financial risks. The management of these risks is undertaken by the
Trust's Investment Manager who has been appointed by the Responsible Entity under an Investment
Management Agreement to manage the Trust's assets in accordance with the Investment Objective and Strategy.

The Responsible Entity has in place a framework which includes:

• The Investment Manager providing the Responsible Entity with regular reports on their compliance with the
Investment Management Agreement;

• Completion of regular reviews on the Service Provider which may include a review of the investment managers
risk management framework to manage the financial risks of the Trust; and

• Regular reporting on the liquidity of the Trust in accordance with the Trust's Liquidity Risk Management
Statement.

16 Financial risk management (continued)

The Trust's Investment Manager has in place a framework to identify and manage the financial risks in
accordance with the investment objective and strategy. This includes an investment due diligence process and
on-going monitoring of the investments in the Trust. Specific controls the Investment Manager applies to manage
the financial risks are detailed under each risk specified below.

(a) Market risk

(i) Currency risk

Currency risk arises as the fair value or future cash flows of monetary securities denominated in foreign currency
will fluctuate due to changes in exchange rates. The currency risk relating to non-monetary assets and liabilities
is a component of price risk not currency risk. However, management monitors the exposures on all foreign
currency denominated assets and liabilities.

The Trust did not have any significant direct exposure to currency risk at the reporting date.

(ii)

Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because
of changes in market interest rates. The Trust is exposed to cash flow interest rate risk on financial instruments
with floating interest rates. Financial instruments with fixed interest rates expose the Trust to fair value interest
rate risk.

The following table summarises the Trust’s exposure to interest rate risk:

The table presented in note 16(a)(iv) summarises sensitivity analysis to interest rate risk. This analysis assumes
that all other variables, in particular foreign currency exchange rates remain constant.

(iii) Price risk

Price risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of
changes in market prices (other than those arising from interest rate risk or currency risk).

The Trust predominantly invests in debt securities. As a result, the price risk arising from the Trust's investments
is impacted by movements in interest rates and is reflected in note 16(a)(ii).

The fair value of the Trust's investments exposed to price risk was as follows:

other variables remain constant.

(iv) Sensitivity analysis

The following table summarises the sensitivity of the operating profit and net assets attributable to unitholders to
price risk. The reasonably possible movements in the risk variables have been determined based on
management’s best estimate, having regard to a number of factors, including historical correlation of the Trust's
investments with the relevant benchmark and market volatility. However, actual movements in the risk variables
may be greater or less than anticipated due to a number of factors, including unusually large market movements
resulting from changes in the performance of and/or correlation between the performance of the economies,
markets and securities in which the Trust invests. As a result, historic variations in risk variables should not be
used to predict future variations in the risk variables.

Credit risk is the risk that a counterparty will be unable to pay amounts when they fall due. The main
concentration of counterparty credit risk, to which the Trust is exposed to, arises predominantly from the Trust's
investments in debt securities. The Trust is also exposed to counterparty credit risk on derivative financial
instruments, cash and cash equivalents, and receivables for securities sold. The maximum exposure to credit risk
at the reporting date is the carrying amount of the financial assets. None of these assets are impaired nor past
due but not impaired as at the balance sheet date.

The Trust determines credit risk and measures expected credit losses for financial assets measured at amortised
cost using probability of default, exposure at default and loss given default. Management considers relevant,
historical analysis and forward looking information in determining any expected credit loss. At the reporting date,
all receivables and cash and cash equivalents are held with approved counterparties and are either callable on
demand or due within 30 days. Management consider the probability of default to be low, as a result, no loss
allowance has been recognised based on 12-month expected credit losses as any such impairment would be
wholly insignificant to the Trust.

(i) Debt securities

Investment management processes include the consideration of counterparty risk. The investment manager may
refer to the credit ratings issued by rating agencies to assess the creditworthiness of counterparties. The
investment manager consider (among other things) branding, stability and security marketability of counterparties
and consistently monitor exposure through electronic systems.

Debt securities that are not rated by Standard & Poor's may be rated by other rating agencies.

(ii) Derivative financial instruments

The risk of counterparty default in a derivative transaction is minimised by predominantly using exchange traded
derivatives (except for currency hedging, contracts for differences, and occasionally other approved over the
counter instruments). The exchange traded derivatives are only executed and cleared through approved
members of the exchanges. For over the counter derivatives, minimum credit ratings apply for counterparties at
the time of entering into a contract and ISDA agreements are put in place with counterparties.

(iii) Cash and cash equivalents

The exposure to credit risk for cash and cash equivalents is low as all counterparties have a rating of A or higher
(as determined by Standard & Poor's).

(iv) Receivables for securities sold

All transactions in listed securities are settled/paid for upon delivery using approved brokers. The risk of default is
considered low, as delivery of securities sold is only made once the broker has received payment from the
counterparty. Payments on securities acquired are only made after the broker has received the securities. The
trade will fail if either party fails to meet its obligations.

All transactions in unlisted unit trusts are settled/unitised when unit prices are issued. The risk of default is
considered low except when trading in a suspended unlisted unit trust.

(c) Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Trust will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due.

The Trust is a closed end vehicle and not exposed to any cash redemptions.

The Trust classifies fair value measurement of its financial assets and liabilities using a fair value hierarchy model
that reflects the subjectivity of the inputs used in making the measurements. The fair value hierarchy has the
following levels:

• Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1);

•

•

Inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either
directly (that is, as prices) or indirectly (that is, derived from prices) (level 2); and

Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (that is, unobservable inputs)
(level 3).

(i) Fair value in an active market (level 1)

The fair value of financial assets and liabilities traded in active markets is based on quoted market prices at the
end of the reporting period without any deduction for estimated future selling costs. For the majority of exchange
traded financial assets and liabilities, information provided by the independent pricing services is relied upon for
valuation.

A financial instrument is regarded as quoted in an active market if quoted prices are readily and regularly
available from an exchange, dealer, broker, industry group, pricing service or regulatory agency, and those prices
represent actual and regularly occurring market transactions on an arm's length basis. An active market is a
market in which transactions for the financial asset or liability take place with sufficient frequency and volume to
provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. Exchange traded derivatives are valued at the last traded price.

(continued)

16 Financial risk management (continued)

(d) Fair value measurement (continued)

(ii) Fair value in an inactive or unquoted market (level 2 and level 3)

The fair value of financial assets and liabilities that are not traded in an active market is determined by using
valuation techniques. These include the use of recent arm's length transactions, reference to current fair value of
a substantially similar other instrument, discounted cash flow techniques, option pricing models or any other
valuation techniques that provide a reliable estimate of prices obtained in actual market transactions.

Some of the inputs to a valuation model may not be market observable and are therefore estimated based on
assumptions. The output of a model is always an estimate or approximation of a value that cannot be determined
with certainty, and valuation techniques employed may not fully reflect all factors relevant to the positions held.

Where discounted cash flow techniques are used, estimated future cash flows are based on management's best
estimates and the discount rate used is a market rate at the end of the reporting period applicable for an
instrument with similar terms and conditions. For other pricing models, inputs are based on market data at the
end of the reporting period. Quoted market prices or dealer quotes for similar instruments are used for debt
securities held.

The fair value of derivatives that are not exchange traded is estimated at the amount that would be received or
paid to terminate the contract at the end of the reporting period taking into account current market conditions
(volatility and appropriate yield curve) and the current creditworthiness of the counterparties.

Investments in unlisted unit trusts are recorded at the redemption value per unit as reported by the investment
managers of such trusts.

The Scheme's level 3 asset include Perpetual Loan Fund. This asset is valued at the price provided by the
investment manager without any adjustment.

17 Derivative financial instruments

A derivative is a financial instrument or other contract which is settled at a future date and whose value changes
in response to the change in a specified interest rate, financial instrument price, commodity price, foreign
currency exchange rates, index of prices or rates, credit rating or credit index or other variables.

Derivative financial instruments require no initial net investment or an initial net investment that is smaller than
would be required for other types of contracts that would be expected to have a similar response to changes in
market factors.

Derivative transactions include many different instruments such as foreign exchange forward contracts, futures
and options. Derivatives are considered to be part of the investment process and the use of derivatives is an
essential part of the Trust's portfolio management. Derivatives are not managed in isolation. Consequently, the
use of derivatives is multifaceted and includes:

•

•

•

hedging to protect an asset or liability of the Trust against a fluctuation in market values or to reduce
volatility;

a substitution for trading of physical securities; and

adjusting asset exposures within the parameters set in the investment strategy, and adjusting the duration of
fixed interest portfolios or the weighted average maturity of cash portfolios.

While derivatives are used for trading purposes, they are not used to gear (leverage) a portfolio. Gearing a
portfolio would occur if the level of exposure to the markets exceeds the underlying value of the Trust.

Notes to the financial statements
For the period 22 May 2018 to 30 June 2019
(continued)

17 Derivative financial instruments (continued)

The Trust held the following derivative instruments during the period:

(a) Futures

Futures are contractual obligations to buy or sell financial instruments on a future date at a specified price
established in an organised market. The futures contracts are collateralised by cash or marketable securities.
Changes in futures contracts' values are usually settled net daily with the exchange.

(b) Swaps

Swaps are derivative instruments in which two counterparties agree to exchange one stream of cash flow against
another stream.

Cross currency swaps are valued at fair value which is based on the estimated amount the Trust would pay or
receive to terminate the currency derivatives at the balance sheet date, taking into account current interest rates,
foreign exchange rates, volatility and the current creditworthiness of the currency derivatives counterparties.
Cross currency swaps are used to hedge the Trust’s interest rate and foreign currency exposure. However,
hedge accounting has not been applied.

Risk exposures and fair value measurements

Information about the Trust's exposure to financial risks and the methods and assumptions used in determining
fair values is provided in note 16. The maximum exposure to credit risk at the end of the reporting period is the
carrying amount of the derivative financial instruments.

18 Segment information

The Trust is organised into one main operating segment with only one key function, being the investment of funds
predominantly in Australia together with opportunistic investments globally in accordance with its investment
objective and guidelines.

19 Events occurring after the reporting period

On 25 July 2019, the directors declared a distribution of 0.3997 cents per ordinary unit which amounted to
$1,598,668 and was paid on 8 August 2019.

No other events have occurred since the reporting date which would have impact on the financial position of the
Trust disclosed in the balance sheet as at 30 June 2019 or on the results and cash flows of the Trust for the
period ended on that date.

20 Contingent assets, liabilities and commitments

There were no outstanding contingent assets, liabilities or commitments as at 30 June 2019.

Independent Auditor’s Report 

To the unitholders of Perpetual Credit Income Trust  

Opinion 

We have audited the Financial Report of 
Perpetual Credit Income Trust (the Trust). 

The Financial Report comprises:  

•  Balance sheet as at 30 June 2019 

•  Statement of comprehensive income, Statement of 
changes in equity, and Statement of cash flows for 
the period, being 22 May 2018 to 30 June 2019 

•  Notes including a summary of significant accounting 

policies 

•  Directors’ Declaration. 

In our opinion, the accompanying Financial 
Report of the Trust is in accordance with 
the Corporations Act 2001, including:  

•  giving a true and fair view of the 

Trust’s financial position as at 30 June 
2019 and of its financial performance 
for the period, being 22 May 2018 to 
30 June 2019; and 

• 

complying with Australian Accounting 
Standards and the Corporations 
Regulations 2001. 

Basis for opinion 

We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. We believe that the audit 
evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. 

Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for 
the audit of the Financial Report section of our report.  

We are independent of the Trust in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001 and the ethical 
requirements of the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board’s APES 110 Code of Ethics 
for Professional Accountants (the Code) that are relevant to our audit of the Financial Report in

Key Audit Matters 

Key Audit Matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in 
our audit of the Financial Report of the current period.  

This matter was addressed in the context of our audit of the Financial Report as a whole, and in 
forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on this matter. 

Valuation and existence of financial assets ($297m) and financial liabilities ($0.7m) at fair value 
through profit or loss 

Refer to Notes 9 and 10 to the Financial Report 

The key audit matter 

How the matter was addressed in our audit 

Financial assets and liabilities at fair value 
through profit or loss (FVTPL) are comprised of 
investments in: 

•  Unlisted unit trusts (Perpetual Loan Fund); 

•  Debt securities, including corporate bonds, 
international bonds and fixed rate notes; 
and 

•  Derivative liabilities, including futures and 

swaps. 

Valuation and existence of financial assets and 
financial liabilities at FVTPL is a key audit matter 
due to the: 

•  size of the Trust’s investments which are 
significant to its financial position. The 
investment in Perpetual Loan Fund and the 
investments in debt securities comprise 
11% and 55%, respectively, of the Trust’s 
total assets at year end;  

•  Trust outsources certain financial reporting 
processes and controls in relation to the 
valuation and existence of these assets and 
liabilities to external service organisations. 
These service organisations include the 
custodian, the fund administrator, which 
provide administrative support to the Trust, 
and the investment manager. This requires 
us to understand processes, assess 
controls and the flow of information 
between these service organisations, 
relevant to the Trust’s financial reporting; 
and 

• 

importance of the performance of Perpetual 

Our procedures included: 

•  We assessed the appropriateness of the 
accounting policies applied by the Trust, 
including those relevant to the fair value 
hierarchy of investments against the 
requirements of the accounting standards. 

•  We obtained and read the Trust’s custodian’s 
and fund administrator’s GS007 (Guidance 
Statement 007 Audit Implications of the Use 
of Service Organisations for Investment 
Management Services) assurance reports to 
understand the custodian’s and fund 
administrator’s processes and controls to 
record and value the Trust’s financial assets 
and liabilities. 

•  We obtained and read the Trust’s investment 

manager’s GS007 assurance report to 
understand the investment manager’s 
processes and controls to maintain and 
provide transactional information to the Trust’s 
custodian. 

•  We assessed the reputation, professional 

competence and independence of the auditors 
of the GS007 assurance reports.  

•  We checked the valuation of the unit holdings 
in Perpetual Loan Fund, as recorded in the 
Trust’s Financial Report, to the audited 
financial report of Perpetual Loan Fund. 

•  With the involvement of our valuation 

specialists, we reperformed the valuation of 
the underlying assets of Perpetual Loan Fund 
using independently sourced market data for

performance, as reported in the Financial 
Report. 

observable inputs, such as, published credit 
spreads and margins. We compared these 
valuations to the fair value of the underlying 
assets. 

As a result, this was the area with greatest 
effect on our overall audit strategy and 
allocation of senior resources in planning and 
performing our audit. 

In assessing this Key Audit Matter, we involved 
our valuation specialists, who understand the 
Trust’s investment profile and business and the 
economic environment it operates in. 

•  We assessed the valuation of the unit price of 
Perpetual Loan Fund against the net assets 
per unit held of the Perpetual Loan Fund. 

•  With the involvement of our valuation 

specialists, we assessed the fair value of debt 
securities by re-performing the valuation by 
comparing observable inputs, including broker-
quoted prices to independently sourced 
market data providers. 

•  With the involvement of our valuation 

specialists, we independently recalculated the 
valuation of derivative liabilities using 
independently sourced market data for 
observable inputs, such as interest rates and 
foreign exchange rates. We compared this 
valuation to the fair value of derivative 
liabilities recognised by the Trust.  

•  We checked the ownership and quantity of 

investments to external custody reports as at 
30 June 2019. 

•  We assessed quantitative and qualitative 

disclosures, including those relevant to the fair 
value hierarchy of investments, against the 
requirements of the accounting standards. 

Other Information 

Other Information is financial and non-financial information in Perpetual Credit Income Trust’s annual 
reporting which is provided in addition to the Financial Report and the Auditor’s Report. The Directors 
of Perpetual Trust Services Limited (the Responsible Entity) are responsible for the Other 
Information.  

Our opinion on the Financial Report does not cover the Other Information and, accordingly, we do not 
express an audit opinion or any form of assurance conclusion thereon. 

In connection with our audit of the Financial Report, our responsibility is to read the Other 
Information. In doing so, we consider whether the Other Information is materially inconsistent with 
the Financial Report or our knowledge obtained in the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially 
misstated. 

We are required to report if we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this Other 
Information, and based on the work we have performed on the Other Information that we obtained 
prior to the date of this Auditor’s Report we have nothing to report.

Responsibilities of the Directors for the Financial Report 

The Directors of Perpetual Trust Services Limited (the Responsible Entity) are responsible for: 

•  preparing the Financial Report that gives a true and fair view in accordance with Australian 

Accounting Standards and the Corporations Act 2001 

• 

• 

implementing necessary internal control to enable the preparation of a Financial Report that gives 
a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error 

assessing the Trust’s ability to continue as a going concern and whether the use of the going 
concern basis of accounting is appropriate. This includes disclosing, as applicable, matters related 
to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless they either intend to 
liquidate the Trust or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.  

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the Financial Report 

Our objective is: 

• 

• 

to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Financial Report as a whole is free from 
material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error; and  

to issue an Auditor’s Report that includes our opinion.  

Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in 
accordance with Australian Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it 
exists. 

Misstatements can arise from fraud or error. They are considered material if, individually or in the 
aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on 
the basis of the Financial Report. 

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the Financial Report is located at the 
Auditing and Assurance Standards Board website at:
