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 MyFarm Solar Fund?
MyFarm Solar Fund is classified as Infrastructure 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 MyFarm Solar Fund evergreen or a closed-end fund?
MyFarm Solar 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 MyFarm Solar Fund?
Minimum investments across MyFarm Solar Fund's currently listed offers range from NZ$50K. Minimums are set per offer and may change for new vintages — confirm the current minimum in the relevant Information Memorandum before subscribing.
Is MyFarm Solar Fund wholesale-only?
Yes — MyFarm Solar 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 Wholesale-only funds do not publish a retail Product Disclosure Statement and do not appear on the Disclose Register.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 MyFarm Solar Fund a Limited Partnership?
MyFarm Solar 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.
Is MyFarm Solar Fund eligible for the Active Investor Plus (AIP) visa?
MyFarm Solar Fund is flagged as AIP-eligible on Wholesale Investor NZ, indicating it appears (or has appeared) on NZTE's Acceptable Managed Funds list for AIP visa applicants. The visa requires NZ$5M (Growth Category, 36-month hold) or NZ$10M (Balanced Category, 60-month hold) in acceptable investments held continuously for the full period. Eligibility determination sits with NZTE + Immigration NZ — verify against the live NZTE list before relying on this classification, and see our AIP eligibility guide for the full statutory framework.
When was MyFarm Solar Fund launched?
MyFarm Solar Fund was launched in 2021. 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.
Where can I read the IM or PDS for MyFarm Solar Fund?
MyFarm Solar Fund has a public current fact sheet 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.
