FUND MANAGEMENT TEAM


The fund is managed by the Systematic Equities team, headed by Amadeo Alentorn, and including James
Murray, Matus Mrazik, Tarun Inani, Yuangao Liu and Sean Storey.

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE AND APPROACH


The objective of the Fund is capital appreciation while closely controlling risk. The fund aims to deliver absolute returns over rolling 12 month periods that have a low
correlation with equity and bond markets, through a market neutral portfolio of global equity investments with long positions typically taken in the stocks determined
most likely to deliver a positive relative return, and short positions typically taken in the stocks determined most likely to deliver a negative relative return. In seeking to
achieve its investment objective, the fund will aim to deliver a return, net of fees, in excess of the Federal Reserve Funds Target Rate over rolling 3 year periods. For
performance measurement purposes, the cash benchmark will differ for non-base currency classes. The Fund also aims to achieve its objective within an annualised
volatility limit of 6 per cent. The team’s approach is to rigorously assess companies against criteria including stock price valuation, balance-sheet quality, growth
characteristics, efficient use of capital, analyst sentiment, and supportive market trends. The team builds a diversified portfolio of stocks that is expected to outperform in
the current macroeconomic environment, while applying stringent risk-management techniques, carefully controlling turnover and trading costs, and maintaining strict
limits on sector and stock positions.

RISK AND REWARD PROFILE


Typically lower rewards Typically higher rewards Synthetic Risk Reward Indicator (SRRI):
Lower Risk Higher Risk The SRRI is based on past data, may change over time and may not be a reliable
indication of the future risk profile of the fund. The lowest category does not
mean ‘no risk’. Please see the KIID for further information.

Investment risk - whilst the Fund aims to deliver above zero performance irrespective of market conditions, there can be no guarantee this aim will be achieved.
Furthermore the Fund may exceed its volatility limit. A capital loss of some or all of the amount invested may occur.
Company shares (i.e. equities) risk - the value of Company shares (i.e. equities) and similar investments may go down as well as up in response to the performance of
individual companies and can be affected by daily stock market movements and general market conditions. Other influential factors include political, economic news,
company earnings and significant corporate events.
Derivative risk - the Fund uses derivatives to generate returns and/or to reduce costs and the overall risk of the Fund. Using derivatives can involve a higher level of
risk. A small movement in the price of an underlying investment may result in a disproportionately large movement in the price of the derivative investment. Derivatives
also involve counterparty risk where the institutions acting as counterparty to derivatives may not meet their contractual obligations.
Currency risk - the Fund can be exposed to different currencies and may use techniques to try to reduce the effects of changes in the exchange rate between the
currency of the underlying investments and the base currency of the Fund. These techniques may not eliminate all the currency risk. The value of your shares may rise
and fall as a result of exchange rate movements.
Stock connect risk - the Fund may invest in China A-Shares through the China-Hong Kong Stock Connect (“Stock Connect”). Stock Connect is governed by regulations
which are untested and subject to change. Trading limitations and restrictions on foreign ownership may constrain the Fund’s ability to pursue its investment strategy.
For a more detailed explanation of risks, please refer to the "Risk Factors" section of the prospectus.

OTHER INFORMATION
Past performance is not a guide to future performance and may not be repeated. Investment involves risk. The value of investments and the income from them may go
down as well as up and investors may not get back the amount originally invested. Because of this, an investor is not certain to make a profit on an investment and
may lose money. Exchange rate changes may cause the value of overseas investments to rise or fall.
• The Fund may be more than 35% invested in Government and public securities. These can be issued by other countries and Governments.
Your attention is drawn to the stated investment policy which is set out in the Fund’s prospectus.

respect to such Shares will crystallise on that Dealing Day and will then become immediately payable.
