Discretionary mutual funds
Discretionary Mutual Funds (DMFs) offer a ‘discretionary cover’, that is, an insurance-like product that may involve an obligation on the DMF to consider meeting a claim. However, it gives the DMF a discretion as to whether it will pay the claim.

Note on submissions
It is APRA's policy to publish all submissions on the APRA website unless the respondent specifically tells APRA in writing that all or part of the submission is to remain confidential. An automatically generated confidentiality statement in an email does not satisfy this purpose. If you would like only part of your submission to be confidential, you should provide this information marked as 'confidential' in a separate attachment.
