Portfolio Investment Entities (PIEs)

Invest and make saving easy

An ANZ PIE fund is an easy way to invest your money. If you're in the 33% or 39% tax bracket, you can potentially earn more from your investment because a PIE caps your effective tax rate at 30%.

We have two PIE funds available:

  • ANZ Call Fund: easy access to your money, usually with next working day availability
  • ANZ Term Fund: lock your money in for a fixed term and set rate of return

What is a Portfolio Investment Entity (PIE)?

In October 2007, new tax legislation came into effect that allowed for the creation of a new investment vehicle called a Portfolio Investment Entity (PIE). The PIE tax rules mean the tax rate payable on a PIE fund is capped at 30%. So if you're on 33% or 39% income tax rate, you'll effectively pay just 30% tax on your PIE income. The sooner you sign up, the sooner you keep more of your hard-earned money.
