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.

  • 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/
