The Investment Manager is also a member company of<br />

and services to its clients around the world. It operates<br />

2. Investment Objective<br />
The investment objective of the Sub-Fund is to attain long<br />
term growth of capital by means of a diversified portfolio<br />
through investment in equity and equity-related securities<br />
of companies, at least 90% of which have assets, products<br />
or operations based in Europe or are included in the MSCI<br />
Europe Index. Up to 10% of the value of the Sub-Fund<br />
may be invested in other companies which have a European<br />
Recognised Exchange listing.<br />
3. Investment Policy<br />
The assets of the Sub-Fund will primarily be invested in<br />
equities and equity-related securities of issuers included in<br />
the MSCI Europe Index or domiciled in or exercising the<br />
predominant part of their commercial activities in Europe.<br />
The Sub-Fund may also invest in other transferable securities<br />
such as equities and equity-related securities. Such<br />
investments must be in accordance with the investment<br />
objective, investment policy and investment restrictions of<br />
the Sub-Fund.<br />
Portfolio selection will adhere to an optimisation process<br />
that favours stocks ranked highly through the Investment<br />
Manager's growth categorisation process and then<br />
configures those into a portfolio in a manner to very tightly<br />
control the portfolio’s tracking error to the MSCI Europe<br />
Index.<br />
The MSCI Europe Index is a capitalisation weighted index<br />
of companies listed in Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Finland,<br />
France, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Italy, Netherlands,<br />
Norway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and United<br />
Kingdom and is designed to broadly and fairly represent<br />
the full diversity of business activities in those markets with<br />
an aim to capture 85% of the free float adjusted market<br />
capitalisation in each industry group and in each country.<br />
The Investment Manager believes that the performance of<br />
equities over longer periods of time is driven by the<br />
progression of earnings. The Sub-Fund will strive to add<br />
value by identifying stocks with superior sustainable<br />
earnings performance. The stock selection will also be<br />
influenced by valuation levels, but only to the extent that<br />
factors have been identified which are expected to drive<br />
valuation potential to be realised in terms of earnings<br />
progression.<br />
