Community

Everyone is welcome

Anyone can enjoy the benefits of the fund while simultaneously making a difference to the community.

Frances Johnson has an account for each of her four grandchildren. Money is automatically transferred every pay day. It’s simply set and forget as the accounts build up.

“When each grandchild turns 18, they will have the funds to buy a car, go on a holiday, do whatever they want to do. It’s an affordable, long-term plan that will make a big difference to them down the track,” said Ms Johnson.

She’s also impressed by the St Nicholas pre-schools her grandkids attend and the way their accounts, in turn, support them.

 

“I find it very positive and pleasing that I am able to contribute to The Fund in a small way. It’s lovely to know that your investments are being used to support agencies, schools and entities within the Diocese. I am very proud to be part of it,” Helen Bird.

CDPF Limited, a company established by the Australian Catholic Bishops Conference, has indemnified the Diocese of Maitland-Newcastle Catholic Development Fund for the Catholic Community Fund ABN 59 728 447 508 (Fund) against any liability arising out of a claim by investors in the Fund. In practice, this means your investment is backed by the assets of the Maitland-Newcastle Diocese. Money invested with the Fund is used to support the charitable works of the Catholic Church. This is achieved by providing a return on your investment that enables us to provide low-cost funding to assist Catholic organisations, including Catholic schools.

 

Accordingly, we are required by law to tell you that your investment with us is not comparable to those with banks, finance companies or fund managers.

The Fund is not regulated by the Australian Prudential Regulation Authority (APRA) nor has it been examined or approved by the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) because we have been granted exemptions.

 

Under these exemptions, we are required by law to tell you that:

  • you will not receive the benefit of the financial claims scheme or the depositor protection provisions in the Banking Act 1959 (Cth);
  • investments that the Fund offers are not subject to the usual protections for investors under the Corporations Act (Cth) or regulation by ASIC;
  • there is a risk that you may not get any of your money back from us;
  • investments that the Fund offers are intended to attract investors whose main investment objective is to support our charitable work;
  • we have an identification statement which contains information about us which may be viewed at www.myccf.com.au/regulatory/
  • the Fund does not hold an Australian Financial Services Licence but the Fund has entered into an intermediary authorisation with CDFMN AFSL Limited ABN: 74 623 033 830, AFSL No. 504182 to issue and deal in debentures.
