Through SS&C Online Services You will be able to see details of your, or your Client's, holdings of Products in a Fund.
The first time You access SS&C Online Services You will be required to access the website using a User ID and a temporary password which will have been assigned and notified to You by SS&C. After accessing SS&C Online Services for the first time, You will be able to change your password. Your User ID and chosen password will then be used by You to gain access to SS&C Online Services on an ongoing basis.
For Representatives associated with more than one Fund in circumstances where those Funds are managed by more than one manager, you will be assigned a different User ID and password in respect of each manager.
Your User ID and password must be kept confidential and should not be recorded in the same place as any other information relevant to your, or your Client's, holding in a Fund. Where You do disclose your User ID and/or password to another person then, to the extent permitted by law, SS&C disclaims all liability for any loss or damage that You (or your Client, if applicable) may suffer as a result of that person accessing SS&C Online Services and gaining access to your, or your Client's, information.
When you access SS&C Online Services, You will be able to view certain information regarding your, or your Client's, holdings in a Fund, including:
Except as described below, SS&C Online Services is an enquiry only website. You may run reports in relation to your, or your Client's, holding in a Fund, and download certain information, but You will not be able to effect transactions (for example, transfers of Products) or change source information through the website.
If You use 'Investor Online', then You will be able to make changes through that web portal to certain static data relating to your holding in a Fund, namely your contact details (for example, your residential address and telephone number), Tax File Number and Australian Business Number (if applicable).
When you supply information through SS&C Online Services, SS&C will facilitate the recording of the information against the holding You have nominated. However, SS&C does not guarantee that the tasks can be effected electronically. There will be a delay of one business day before any changes You make to information through SS&C Online Services are processed, updated and visible on SS&C Online Services.
Where You download information from SS&C Online Services and You make, or another person makes, changes to that information then, to the extent permitted by law, SS&C disclaims all liability for any loss or damage that You (or your Client, if applicable) may suffer as a result of that information being manipulated.
The information contained on SS&C Online Services is not intended to be used as the basis for making any investment decision and must not be relied upon as investment advice. The information provided does not take into account the objectives, financial situation or needs of a particular investor and is not a sufficient basis on which to make an investment decision.

If You want, or your Client wants, to change any details associated with your or your Client's holding of Products (for example, contact details) and those changes cannot be made through SS&C Online Services, then they must be recorded on the appropriate hard copy form and sent by mail to SS&C. You can obtain the required form by calling the SS&C Call Centre.
