Frequently Asked Questions

What is the term of the fund?

The fund had an initial five-year investment term ending in March 2019. Following a unitholder meeting in April 2019, the term was extended for an additional five year period.

The current investment term is set to expire in March 2024.

When are distributions paid?

Distributions for BW are payable quarterly in arrears between 15 and 20 days after the quarters ending March and September and between 20 and 25 days after the quarters ending June and December. Further information can be found on the Distributions section of the Investor Centre page.

How do I withdraw my units in the fund?

BW is not open to daily withdrawals.

BW is an illiquid investment and investors should expect to redeem their investment in the fund only when it is wound up, or via a Review Event.

Charter Hall Direct provided investors with the opportunity to redeem units via a liquidity facility following the April 2019 unitholder meeting.  Unitholders have received separate communication from Charter Hall Direct in relation to redemptions via this liquidity facility, which has now closed.

Charter Hall Direct intends to hold a separate liquidity event for the fund at the end of the current investment term in 2024.

Please refer to the product disclosure statement and April 2019 Notice of Meeting for additional information.

Units in BW are also transferable and investors may elect to sell their units privately. 

We cannot assist investors to find a buyer for their units. However if an investor does find a willing buyer and negotiates the sale of their units, a standard transfer and application form will need to be completed by each party and sent to our registry for processing. Forms are available for download on the Documents & Forms page.

Can I transfer my holding to another entity or person?

Yes, a transfer takes place when you decide to sell all or part of your investment to another person or entity. 

A transfer is a change of ownership of units within the same fund. A separate standard transfer form is required to transfer your holding for each registered holding.  

Please seek financial advice. 

The standard transfer form can be found on our Documents & Forms page. 

Please note that when a transfer takes place, our registry treats this as a new holding, even if it is a simple name change with the same trustees or company directors. Therefore all banking details, tax file numbers, Australian business numbers (ABNs) and adviser details will need to be provided on the new transfer form.

How do I notify Charter Hall of my tax file number (TFN)?

If you do not provide your tax file number on your original application form, you can provide it at any time in the future. Please note it is not compulsory to quote your TFN, however withholding tax will be taken from any payments from Investors who elect not to provide their TFN. These investors will then be required to claim the withholding tax through their annual tax return. The tax file number form can be found on the Documents & Forms page.
