Who manages CQuest Forestry Fund?
CQuest Forestry Fund is managed by MyFarm Investments (FSPR FSP1003795, NZBN 9429052582424) based in Christchurch. Manager registration on the Financial Service Providers Register is a legal requirement under the Financial Service Providers (Registration and Dispute Resolution) Act 2008 and does not itself constitute an endorsement.
What asset class is CQuest Forestry Fund?
CQuest Forestry Fund is classified as Forestry on Wholesale Investor NZ. Asset-class classification reflects the fund's stated investment focus per its Information Memorandum and is provided for navigation purposes only — review the IM for the full strategy and risk profile.
Is CQuest Forestry Fund evergreen or a closed-end fund?
CQuest Forestry Fund is an evergreen fund — it is permanently open for subscription rather than running on fixed vintages. New investors can typically apply at any time subject to capacity, manager discretion, and the fund's stated subscription windows. Redemption terms are set in the Information Memorandum and vary by fund.
What is the minimum investment in CQuest Forestry Fund?
The minimum investment is NZ$50K per the fund's current Information Memorandum. Minimums may change for new vintages or at manager discretion — confirm the current minimum directly with the manager before subscribing.
Is CQuest Forestry Fund wholesale-only?
Yes — CQuest Forestry Fund is offered on a wholesale-only basis under Schedule 1 of the Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013. Subscription requires self-certification under one of the seven Schedule 1 pathways (typically the NZ$5M net-assets "large person" pathway or an accountant- or lawyer-signed eligible-investor certificate per Clauses 38-40). Wholesale-only funds do not publish a retail Product Disclosure Statement and do not appear on the Disclose Register.
Is CQuest Forestry Fund a Limited Partnership?
CQuest Forestry Fund is structured as a Limited Partnership (LP). LP income flows through to the investor and is taxed at the investor's marginal rate (up to 39% above NZ$180,000 of taxable income for 2024-25). Investors receive IR7 partnership tax statements annually and report the income on their personal IR3 return. The LP structure is common for private equity, venture capital, and direct-property syndicates in New Zealand.
When was CQuest Forestry Fund launched?
CQuest Forestry Fund was launched in 2022. Operational tenure is one input to evaluating manager track record but does not itself indicate likely future performance — past performance is not a reliable indicator of future returns per FMA fair-dealing guidance. Request audited financial statements covering the full operating period before subscribing.
What is the target return for CQuest Forestry Fund?
Per the fund's current Information Memorandum, the target return is: "9-12% p.a. IRR (target internal rate of return over the investment's lifetime)". Target returns are forward-looking projections set by the manager and are not guarantees of future performance. Actual returns may differ materially from target. Review the IM's full target-return language, fee deductions, and accompanying risk factors before relying on this figure.
Where can I read the IM or PDS for CQuest Forestry Fund?
CQuest Forestry Fund has a public Information Memorandum (IM) linked from its Wholesale Investor NZ profile page. Documents are sourced from the manager's own published disclosures. Some wholesale funds gate full disclosure behind a wholesale-investor self-certification — review the document index on the fund page and contact the manager if a specific document is not surfaced.
