(3) The ACT Government will not be producing an investment prospectus in the 2012-13 financial year, in the format that has been used in the past. Decisions on investor engagement material going forward – either printed or on-line format – have not been finalised.
Previously, the ACT Government investment prospectus has been a high level document that aligned with a broadly focussed, non-dedicated investment attraction approach. Growth, Diversification and Jobs – A Business Development Strategy for the ACT, was announced by the Government in April 2012 and included the development of a dedicated investment facilitation function, InvestACT. As a result, the ACT investment strategy for the future will be based around more targeted approaches. To achieve that, it is necessary to produce marketing collateral that is tailored to the information needs of specific investor types. Accordingly, collateral is likely to be heavier on detail for the investor and more relevant to the investments they are considering.
