Generate Cashplus Fund

What the provider says

The CashPlus Fund aims to provide a stable return over the very short term. It invests in an actively managed portfolio made up predominantly of income assets with a maturity of less than 1 year. This fund is useful if you plan to withdraw your KiwiSaver funds within the next 12 months and need certainty of the amount you intend to withdraw. Volatility is likely to be very low, however a negative return is still possible.

The fund's own description, as disclosed on the Disclose Register. Fund start date: 16 May 2022.

What the fund invests in

Actual allocation as at 30 June 2026. Asset classes held at 0% are left out.

How it is managed

Management style: Active. The manager chooses investments, or shifts the mix, to try to do better than the market. This describes how the fund is run, not whether one style is better.

Passive vs active KiwiSaver funds: what the difference means for you →

Largest investments

Together 71.5% of the fund. The rest is spread across other holdings.

How spread out is it?

The risk indicator measures how much a fund's returns have moved, not how many investments it holds, so it cannot show concentration on its own. Two funds that hold the same index can carry different indicators. Shares are as the provider disclosed them, and a total above 100% is the provider's own figure.

Fees and charges

Charges as a share of the amount invested. A blank on the register is shown as not stated. How an adviser is paid is separate, and is set out in our disclosure statement.

Returns the provider has disclosed

These are the provider's own figures from its fund update. They are the register's "net" returns, which are after the fund's charges and after tax, so they will not match the Morningstar figures in the headline and in the next section, which are after charges and before tax. Read each on its own terms.

A return says what happened and not what will.

Returns reported by Morningstar

Annualised returns a year as at 30 September 2026, from the Morningstar KiwiSaver Survey, published 29 October 2026. Returns are annualised: each figure is a return per year, averaged across the period shown. Figures are net of the fund's annual charges and before your own tax. KiwiSaver is taxed at your prescribed investor rate, so two people in the same fund keep different amounts, and fixed dollar member fees are not reflected in a percentage. Morningstar publishes category averages for its five multi-sector categories only, so there is none to show for this fund. Past performance does not guarantee future returns.

Other details

Where this comes from

Fund details are from the Disclose Register (opens in a new tab), read on 31 October 2026. The Morningstar return is from the same report as the Morningstar returns comparison. Read the provider's current Product Disclosure Statement before you decide.

Cam compares KiwiSaver providers and funds across the wider NZ market, and a fund appearing here, or on his implementation panel, is not a recommendation. Whether a fund suits you depends on your goals, timeframe and comfort with risk. How Solid Steele is paid depends on the provider and is set out in the disclosure statement. A free KiwiSaver session is the way to see how it applies to you.
