Fund overview

In November 2016, Charter Hall entered into a 50/50 joint venture with Furnished Property to develop a 144 room Hotel at Green Square, Sydney.

The site, at 18 O’Riordan Street, Alexandria, is located within the $13 billion, 278 hectare Green Square Urban Regeneration Area (‘GSURA’) and is strategically located approximately 100 metres from the Green Square Train Station.

The Sydney Airport Domestic and International Terminals are two and three stops respectively to the south with Central Station, one stop to the north. Green Square is one of the most significant urban transformation programs under construction in Australia, revitalising the industrial edge of Sydney’s inner south into a vibrant global village. Green Square Town Centre, which is the centerpiece of the GSURA, is in close proximity to the proposed hotel.

The Charter Hall Direct Green Square Fund was launched in November 2017, to raise $23.2 million (closing over-subscribed), which together with construction finance, will fund the development of the hotel on a fund-through basis reducing CHC and Furnished Property‘s funds employed to develop the hotel. The Fund will own the hotel long-term.

Construction commenced late 2017 with the hotel opening in 2019. Furnished Property has taken a 10 year lease (with 8 x 5 year options), with a minimum base rent with annual increases, and a turnover rent. Furnished Property will operate the hotel under their Veriu Hotel & Suites Brand.

Tax Information

The Fund is a withholding managed investment trust for the purposes of Subdivision 12-H of the Taxation Administration Act 1953 and has previously elected to be an Attribution Managed Investment Trust.

What is an Attribution Managed Investment Trust (AMIT)?

An AMIT is a managed investment trust that has chosen to apply the AMIT regime. Managed investment trusts include most listed trusts and other widely held trusts.

What is the AMIT regime?

The Tax Laws Amendment (New Tax System for Managed Investment Trusts) Act 2016 (the Act), which establishes a tax system for managed investment trusts (MITs), received Royal Assent on 5 May 2016. The rules apply from 1 July 2016.  Prior to the commencement of the AMIT regime, family trusts and large managed investment trusts were subject to the same set of tax laws. Many aspects of these laws were uncertain and difficult for managed investment trusts to apply in practice and resulted in unnecessary administration costs.
 
The AMIT regime provides a specific set of rules that are intended to provide greater flexibility in the operation of an AMIT’s tax affairs and to reduce administration costs.
 
Under the AMIT Regime, unitholders are taxed on the taxable income that is “attributed” to them by a Fund on a “fair and reasonable” basis.  Under this approach a Fund can attribute an amount of taxable income to unitholders that is greater than the cash paid.
 
The AMIT regime will not change the overall manner in which CQE’s income is taxed or change the way in which investors complete the tax return. Consistent with the previous trust taxation regime:
 
  • CQE itself will not be subject to tax;
  • an Australian resident CQE unitholder will include their share of CQE’s taxable income in their assessable income for the year to which the income relates (not the year in which it is received);
  • withholding tax will be deducted from distributions to non-resident CQE unitholders;
  • investors will include the different components of their share of CQE’s taxable income in the tax return labels; and
  • where cash distributed to Unitholders is greater than their share of the net income of CQE, the Unitholder is required to reduce their cost base in the units of CQE.
At this stage, Charter Hall Social Infrastructure Limited intends to continue with its current distribution policy and will attribute a Fund’s taxable income in the same manner as under the previous trust taxation regime which is in proportion to the cash distributed to each Unitholder.

Why is the fund electing to opt-in to the AMIT Regime?

FIML has decided to elect for the AMIT Regime to apply to the Fund commencing from 1 July 2017 for the following reasons:
 
  • elimination of a number of areas of uncertainty in the existing laws;
  • tax status of Fund – The AMIT Regime deems the fund to be a “fixed trust” providing certainty to the fundto be eligible for certain tax concessions, such as the ability to recoup carried forward trust tax losses;
  • prescriptive treatment of under or over-distributions of taxable income (“overs” or “unders”) of a Fund which will reduce the requirement to amend prior year tax returns previously lodged; and
  • prevention of double taxation – The AMIT Regime provides the ability to make upward cost base adjustments to Fund units where cash distributions are less than the taxable income attributed to Unitholders.  In the absence of this, Unitholders may be taxed twice on certain amounts attributed to them.

When does the AMIT regime start?

Managed investment trusts can choose to be AMITs with effect from the year ended 30 June 2016 or any later year.  CQE has elected to become an AMIT from 1 July 2017. CQE will be an AMIT for all subsequent years as the election is irrevocable.

Where can I find the Fund's NTA unit price?

The fund's NTA unit price may be found under the Investor Centre tab

How do I invest?

The Fund is a closed end fund not open for new subscriptions.

Is there a Redemption Facility for the Fund?

No redemption facility is available.

Can I sell my Units in the Fund?

A Unitholder can transfer Units in the Fund to another person by providing the Responsible Entity with a completed standard transfer form signed by both the transferor and the transferee. The Responsible Entity reserves the right to decline transfer requests in its absolute discretion including when a transfer is not completed correctly, is not stamped or if any one Unitholder would hold more than 20.0 per cent of Units. Tax implications could be associated with the transfer of Units. Unitholders should discuss their circumstances with their professional adviser before requesting a transfer.

How do I have payments paid directly to my bank or building society?
