The Discretionary Trust Arrangement is not an insurance product, because one element of the Arrangement involves the Trustee’s absolute discretion whether or not to pay a Claim and how much to pay. The Discretionary Trust Arrangement is a Managed Investment Scheme made up of two parts: The Scheme Cover and The Insurance Cover.

The Discretionary Trust Arrangement was established to help manage the Members’ risk of personal injury. For more information please read the Australian Football National Risk Protection Program Discretionary Trust Arrangement Product Disclosure Statement.
