CEO’S MESSAGE<br />

<strong><strong>Great</strong>Link</strong> <strong>Funds</strong> yield<br />

Sterling Results<br />

Dear Valued Policyholders<br />

Our <strong><strong>Great</strong>Link</strong> <strong>Funds</strong> have delivered very good results. Almost all our<br />

equity funds rose more than 10% in 2005; the more conservative balanced and<br />

non-equity funds also posted positive returns.<br />

Leading in performance is <strong><strong>Great</strong>Link</strong> Enhancer Fund which recorded a 26.09%<br />

growth for 2005 and a 102.87% growth over 3 years. Our <strong><strong>Great</strong>Link</strong> <strong>Life</strong>style<br />

Portfolios which cater to different lifestyle needs, investment time-frame and<br />

risk appetites have also performed well. All 5 Portfolios achieved 3-year annualised<br />

returns ranging from 5.89% for the Secure Portfolio to 16.84% for the Dynamic<br />

Portfolio.<br />

The fund manager for the majority of our <strong><strong>Great</strong>Link</strong> <strong>Funds</strong> is Lion Capital<br />

Management Ltd. Lion Capital is the asset management company formed after<br />

the merger of two existing <strong><strong>Great</strong>Link</strong> fund managers, OCBC Asset Management<br />

Ltd and Straits Lion Asset Management Ltd. With over $30 billion assets under<br />

management, Lion Capital is the largest non-government asset management<br />

company in Singapore. It is committed to achieving good and consistent<br />

performance for your investments.<br />

Last year, we launched <strong><strong>Great</strong>Link</strong> Choice Fund and <strong><strong>Great</strong>Link</strong> Real Estate<br />

Securities Fund. The latter is the first and only investment-linked fund in<br />

Singapore that invest in real estate securities and REITs. We will continue to<br />

constantly innovate to give you greater investment choices and opportunities.<br />

We will also work hard to ensure that investing in <strong><strong>Great</strong>Link</strong> funds continues<br />

to be a rewarding experience for you.<br />

Yours sincerely<br />

Tan Beng Lee<br />

Director & Group CEO<br />

ANNOUNCEMENTS<br />

New CPF Admission<br />

Criteria for Investment-<br />

Linked <strong>Funds</strong><br />

The CPF Board has recently announced that<br />

more stringent standards will be applied to<br />

investment funds that wish to join the CPF<br />

Investment Scheme (CPFIS).<br />

Every new funds that apply to join the CPF<br />

Investment Scheme from 1 February 2006<br />

will have to be in the top 25 per cent of funds<br />

in its class globally. The fund must have a<br />

good track record for at least 3 years. Also,<br />

the fund’s expense ratios will have to be lower<br />

than half of the current CPF-approved funds<br />

within its risk category.<br />

These new standards do not affect existing<br />

<strong><strong>Great</strong>Link</strong> policyholders in any way. You will<br />

continue to enjoy the various policy benefits<br />

and our expert management of your<br />

investments.<br />

We are also pleased to inform you that the<br />

majority of our existing suite of <strong><strong>Great</strong>Link</strong><br />

<strong>Funds</strong> meet the new admission criteria even<br />

before they were announced. <strong><strong>Great</strong>Link</strong> <strong>Funds</strong><br />

have been recording steady growth for the<br />

past three years. The expense ratios (as at<br />

December 2005) of 20 of our existing suite<br />

of 22 <strong><strong>Great</strong>Link</strong> <strong>Funds</strong> are below the new<br />

criteria. The expense ratios of the other 2<br />

existing funds are just marginally (less than<br />

0.1%) above the new criteria. And based on<br />

a report by Investment Management<br />

Association of Singapore, the expense ratios<br />

of our <strong><strong>Great</strong>Link</strong> <strong>Funds</strong> are generally low<br />

when compared to other investment-linked<br />

funds within their respective categories.<br />

You can therefore rest assure that <strong><strong>Great</strong>Link</strong><br />

<strong>Funds</strong> have competitive operating cost and<br />

are well-managed.<br />

LEAD STORIES<br />

2005 Sets the Pace<br />

for a Rosy 2006<br />

2005 was a good year for investors. Despite<br />

the many dampeners including spiraling oil<br />

prices and persistent US rate hikes, the year<br />

recorded positive results in many parts of the<br />

world. The US economy grew at a steady<br />

rate providing the backbone for sustained<br />

global growth. China equities grew strongly<br />

with a rise of 19.8%. The MSCI Asia Pacific<br />

ex Japan Index rose 21%. And the MSCI World<br />

Index rose a respectable 10%. Locally, the year<br />

ended with a flourish; the STI was near a sixyear<br />

high.<br />

<strong><strong>Great</strong>Link</strong> fund managers leveraged on the<br />

favourable environment and delivered attractive<br />

profits for our <strong><strong>Great</strong>Link</strong> policyholders. The<br />

<strong><strong>Great</strong>Link</strong> Enhancer Fund grew as much as<br />

26.09% last year. Other <strong><strong>Great</strong>Link</strong> <strong>Funds</strong> also<br />

delivered sterling results. For more details on<br />

the performance of <strong><strong>Great</strong>Link</strong> <strong>Funds</strong>, take a<br />

look at the fact sheets in this booklet.<br />

A ROSY 2006<br />

The start of 2006 did not disappoint. The<br />

world’s most widely watched index, the Dow<br />

Jones Industrial Average, closed above 11,000<br />

points for the first time in 4 1 /2 years.<br />

Indeed, 2006 has many ingredients for a bullish<br />

year. Rising income, increased spending, healthy<br />

balance sheets and attractive valuations give<br />

the foundation for continued global economic<br />

expansion. In fact, Singapore’s trade promotion<br />

agency, IE Singapore, forecasted that the surging<br />

global economy will push Singapore’s foreign<br />

trade to hit $800 billion this year.<br />

2006 is Not Without Threats<br />

There are however several risks that may stall<br />

or reverse the growth trend. There are<br />

concerns that while markets such as China,<br />

India and the ASEAN region are expected to<br />

continue to grow, the US economy may slow<br />

down. The other fears are Iran’s nuclear<br />

ambitions, rising oil and commodity prices as<br />

well as the possibility of a bird flu pandemic.<br />

Undeniably, there are threats lurking. How<br />

can we capitalise on investment opportunities<br />

while managing these risks? <strong>Great</strong> <strong>Eastern</strong>’s<br />

investment philosophy has always been to<br />

minimise your total investment risk exposure<br />

to a level that you are comfortable with. Our<br />

<strong>Great</strong> <strong>Eastern</strong> <strong>Life</strong> Planners have been trained<br />

to evaluate your investment portfolio in totality<br />

and determine the investments that will help<br />

you achieve a fair level of diversification and<br />

depending on your risks tolerance and<br />

investment objectives.<br />

LEAD STORIES<br />

High Potential Investments<br />

For year 2006, there are some investments<br />

that show greater potential than others.<br />

One of the high growth segments is Asia.<br />

Asian bourses performed well in 2005 despite<br />

several catastrophes including the tsunami,<br />

Bali bombing and the Pakistan earthquake.<br />

Markets like China, India and Korea performed<br />

very well last year and the growth trend is<br />

expected to continue. Prospects for the<br />

ASEAN countries are good too. Real GDP<br />

growth forecast for ASEAN is in the range of<br />

4.5% to 5.5%. The potentially strong and<br />

steady GDP growth is likely to lead the ASEAN<br />

stock markets into a bullish year.<br />

If you wish to ride on ASEAN’S growth, you<br />

can do so with <strong><strong>Great</strong>Link</strong> ASEAN Growth<br />

Fund, the only investment-linked fund in<br />

Singapore that invests in ASEAN equities.<br />

Or if you want to cast your net wider, you<br />

can consider <strong><strong>Great</strong>Link</strong> Far East ex Japan<br />

Equities Fund which invests in ASEAN plus<br />

China, Hong Kong, Taiwan and Korea.<br />

But before you make any investment decisions,<br />

it is important for you to review whether you<br />

and your family are adequately insured to<br />

guard against unfortunate events. One good<br />

option to reap potential investment gains and<br />

be insured at the same time is to take up our<br />

<strong><strong>Great</strong>Link</strong> Supreme<strong>Life</strong> Plan. The plan allows<br />

you to select the proportion of insurance and<br />

investment. Best of all, you can adjust the<br />

proportion whenever the need arises.<br />

If you are unsure of how much insurance you<br />

need or what to invest in, you will certainly<br />

benefit from your <strong>Life</strong> Planner’s advice. He<br />

or she can map out a holistic investment and<br />

insurance plan that meets your lifestyle and<br />

financial goals.<br />

LEAD STORIES<br />

Money Not Enough?<br />

<strong><strong>Great</strong>Link</strong> <strong>Funds</strong><br />

show the way!<br />

“Money is not enough! Traditional deposit<br />

interest rates are not giving enough returns<br />

to match inflation. Bank savings deposit rates<br />

are unattractive. Investment funds are<br />

performing poorly.” These are common<br />

grouses from the man on the street.<br />

If you share these grouses, perhaps <strong><strong>Great</strong>Link</strong><br />

<strong>Funds</strong> can make your savings work harder for<br />

you.<br />

Excellent Fund Managers<br />

<strong>Great</strong> <strong>Eastern</strong> offers a diversified suite of 22<br />

investment-linked funds (<strong><strong>Great</strong>Link</strong> <strong>Funds</strong>)<br />

which can cater to the various investment<br />

needs and risk appetites of policyholders,<br />

including a new Global Real Estate Securities<br />

Fund that was launched in 2005. These funds<br />

are professionally managed by top-notch fund<br />

managers who have undergone stringent<br />

selection criteria.<br />

Through a rigorous process, the fund managers<br />

constantly monitor the medium to long term<br />

performance of our <strong><strong>Great</strong>Link</strong> <strong>Funds</strong> to strive<br />

for outstanding performance.<br />

As a result, in 2005 most of our <strong><strong>Great</strong>Link</strong><br />

<strong>Funds</strong> have delivered good results. On a 3-<br />

year annualised basis, all our 22 <strong><strong>Great</strong>Link</strong><br />

<strong>Funds</strong> have shown positive returns, with over<br />

half of the <strong>Funds</strong> gaining more than 10%<br />

growth in their bid prices (which refers to<br />

the price you can redeem your units at).<br />

2 Innovative ILP <strong>Funds</strong><br />

launched in 2005<br />

The new kid on the block, <strong><strong>Great</strong>Link</strong> Global<br />

Real Estate Securities Fund (GGRESF), which<br />

was launched in June 2005, had a great start.<br />

It is the FIRST investment-linked fund in<br />

Singapore that invests into real estate securities<br />

and listed REITs. In just slightly more than 7<br />

months, its price has risen 8% to $1.026 (bid<br />

price as at 31 Dec 2005). The fund also strives<br />

to pay 4% dividends yearly, depending on its<br />

performance.<br />

<strong><strong>Great</strong>Link</strong> Choice is a 5-year single premium<br />

investment-linked plan that was offered for a<br />

limited period only in Sep-Oct 2005. The<br />

objective of the fund is to give policyholders<br />

annual payouts of 3.5% and 100% capital<br />

protection on maturity. It also provides<br />

protection in the event of death. In a short<br />

span of about 2 months, with overwhelming<br />

support from policyholders, <strong><strong>Great</strong>Link</strong> Choice<br />

has accumulated more than S$210 million in<br />

investments!<br />

2005 is indeed a fruitful year for <strong><strong>Great</strong>Link</strong><br />

<strong>Funds</strong>! <strong>Great</strong> <strong>Eastern</strong> will continue to work<br />

closely with our fund managers to deliver<br />

more good results in the years ahead for our<br />

valued policyholders.<br />

MANAGER COMMENTARY<br />

Market Review – The global bonds market did not turn in a<br />

good performance this year following a series of interest rate<br />

hikes from the Federal Reserve, bringing the Fed Fund rate from<br />

2.25% in Jan 2005 to 4.25% in Dec 2005. However, despite the<br />

higher interest rates and the higher energy prices, the US economy<br />

continued to remain firm, as evident by the strong GDP growth<br />

and the improvement in consumer and business spending. Both<br />

Euroland and Japan have also seen signs of economic recovery on<br />

the back of improving corporate profits and business confidence.<br />

Global equity markets performed well in 2005 on a better<br />

than expected GDP of 3.5% for 2005 and as initial fears over a<br />

higher inflationary environment were dispelled. The general<br />

improvement in macroeconomic activities in Europe and the Japanese<br />

economy also helped fuelled the rise in the equity markets.<br />

For the full year 2005, all the lifestyle portfolios<br />

underperformed their benchmarks, which are largely attributed<br />

to the equity performance.<br />

Market Outlook – Global economic growth is expected to<br />

remain firm in the near-term but with a bias towards a slowdown<br />

by end of 2006. Although US monetary policy is expected to reach<br />

a peak soon, consumer spending is expected to moderate on the<br />

back of higher interest rates and the fall in house prices. Economic<br />

growth in Euroland is expected to be on track while Japan is likely<br />

to move away from its zero interest rate policy. The healthy<br />

financial conditions and recovery in capital spending and consumer<br />

confidence could also possibly lead Japan out of deflation.<br />

Global equities is expected to remain buoyant on expectations<br />

that the Federal Reserve may be near the end of the monetary<br />

tightening cycle after eight 0.25% hikes in the Fed <strong>Funds</strong> rate. The<br />

improving economic environment in Europe and Japan are also<br />

expected to lend support to the markets. Notwithstanding this,<br />

there still exists the risks that the monetary policy could be further<br />

tightened and oil prices could rise further, which could raise the<br />

possibility of a slower economic growth and inflation fears. In<br />

addition, the possibility of an Avian flu pandemic could also disrupt<br />

the performance of the equity markets.<br />

MANAGER COMMENTARY<br />

Market Review – The global bonds market did not turn in a<br />

good performance this year following a series of interest rate<br />

hikes from the Federal Reserve, bringing the Fed Fund rate from<br />

2.25% in Jan 2005 to 4.25% in Dec 2005. However, despite the<br />

higher interest rates and the higher energy prices, the US economy<br />

continued to remain firm, as evident by the strong GDP growth<br />

and the improvement in consumer and business spending. Both<br />

Euroland and Japan have also seen signs of economic recovery on<br />

the back of improving corporate profits and business confidence.<br />

Global equity markets performed well in 2005 on a better<br />

than expected GDP of 3.5% for 2005 and as initial fears over a<br />

higher inflationary environment were dispelled. The general<br />

improvement in macroeconomic activities in Europe and the Japanese<br />

economy also helped fuelled the rise in the equity markets.<br />

For the full year 2005, all the lifestyle portfolios<br />

underperformed their benchmarks, which are largely attributed<br />

to the equity performance.<br />

Market Outlook – Global economic growth is expected to<br />

remain firm in the near-term but with a bias towards a slowdown<br />

by end of 2006. Although US monetary policy is expected to reach<br />

a peak soon, consumer spending is expected to moderate on the<br />

back of higher interest rates and the fall in house prices. Economic<br />

growth in Euroland is expected to be on track while Japan is likely<br />

to move away from its zero interest rate policy. The healthy<br />

financial conditions and recovery in capital spending and consumer<br />

confidence could also possibly lead Japan out of deflation.<br />

Global equities is expected to remain buoyant on expectations<br />

that the Federal Reserve may be near the end of the monetary<br />

tightening cycle after eight 0.25% hikes in the Fed <strong>Funds</strong> rate. The<br />

improving economic environment in Europe and Japan are also<br />

expected to lend support to the markets. Notwithstanding this,<br />

there still exists the risks that the monetary policy could be further<br />

tightened and oil prices could rise further, which could raise the<br />

possibility of a slower economic growth and inflation fears. In<br />

addition, the possibility of an Avian flu pandemic could also disrupt<br />

the performance of the equity markets.<br />

MARKET REVIEW<br />

For the half year ended 31 December 2005, the fund gained<br />

3.57% (bid-bid), outperforming its benchmark, 50% MSCI World<br />

& 50% Citigroup World Government Bond index (unhedged)<br />

which rose 1.99%.<br />

Equity<br />

It was a good year for global equities, supported by strong<br />

profit growth. Global economic growth was good and inflation<br />

remained subdued. The best results among developed markets<br />

came from Japan. Resource rich countries such as Canada were<br />

also strong. Commodity indices registered a fourth-straight year<br />

of increases, helped by strong demand.<br />

Energy stocks led the markets for the first three quarters<br />

and had the best returns by far for the year fuelled by soaring oil<br />

prices. Crude oil futures reached a peak of US$67.9 in the third<br />

quarter then eased back below US$60 towards the end of the<br />

year. Cyclical stocks took the lead in the fourth quarter, with<br />

materials and industrials ending the year with large gains. Financials<br />

also had good results thanks to record profits. Mergers and<br />

acquisitions occurred at a feverish pace, with global deal volume<br />

up 38% from 2004, according to preliminary year-end data. Private<br />

equity transactions also ran high as well as underwriting, with<br />

many high profile IPOs outside the US. The telecommunications<br />

services sector was the weakest by far. Investors grew increasingly<br />

concerned about bleak growth prospects (in developed markets),<br />

pressure on profit margins and fears that cash-rich operators<br />

would overpay for acquisitions.<br />

Current account imbalances showed no sign of correcting.<br />

Despite this, the US dollar defied conventional wisdom and rose,<br />

thanks to higher interest rates. Despite many doubters, the U.S.<br />

economy remained strong in the face of high energy prices, natural<br />

disasters, concerns about US consumers, and rising interest rates.<br />

GREATLINK GLOBAL SUPREME FUND report as at 31 December 2005<br />

The Federal Reserve raised the federal funds rate from 2.25% to<br />

4.25%, though their stated goal is not to achieve a tight monetary<br />

policy, but rather, to move from an accommodative policy to a<br />

neutral one.<br />

The European equity markets rallied throughout most of<br />

2005 and finished the year with good annual returns. There were<br />

signs that an economic recovery was beginning to take hold in<br />

the eurozone, and, in a move that was widely anticipated in the<br />

market, the European Central Bank raised interest rates by a<br />

quarter percent to 2.25% on 1 December. In the UK, the government<br />

reduced its economic growth forecast for 2005 and 2006.<br />

The gradual economic recovery in Japan gained believers as<br />

the year progressed. The stock market surged. Reforms regained<br />

momentum after the prime minister’s landslide victory in a snap<br />

parliamentary election which reinforced his mandate for reform<br />

including the proposed privatization of Japan Post.<br />

Currencies played a major role over the year with rising<br />

interest rates in the U.S. helping to support the dollar which<br />

strengthened 15% against the euro, 12% against the British pound<br />

and 15% against the Japanese yen.<br />

Fixed Income<br />

Bonds markets were mixed in the first quarter of 2005 though<br />

on aggregate they returned 0.74% in local currency terms (Citigroup<br />

WGBI).<br />

In the US, the bonds returned -0.42%, the quarter started<br />

constructively following a disappointing non-farm payroll figure.<br />

The 10-year benchmark bond touched its lowest yield level of 4%<br />

for the third time in five months. However, the market suffered<br />

a strong correction following Fed Chairman Alan Greenspan's<br />

comments that "the broadly unanticipated behaviour of world<br />

bond markets [in keeping yields so low despite rising short rates]<br />

remains a conundrum." The Fed increased overnight rate to 2.75%<br />

with some members showing concern about upside inflation risks.<br />

Meanwhile in the UK, bonds returned -0.08%, the Monetary<br />

Policy Committee (MPC) left rates on hold at 4.75% during the<br />

quarter. The decision to leave rates on hold probably reflects a<br />

balance between downside news for near term growth (weaker<br />

housing, weak output and higher oil prices) and upside risks for<br />

future growth, namely, strong profit and earnings growth, buoyant<br />

investment and a weaker pound. In Eurozone, bonds returned<br />

1.26%. As expected, the ECB left rates on hold during the quarter.<br />

The tone of the ECB Monthly Bulletins took a more hawkish<br />

stance, focusing in particular on the size of the liquidity overhang<br />

and sounding more up-beat towards the global environment.<br />

Japan bonds returned 0.80%. Comments from Policy Board<br />

members were sufficiently mixed to keep the markets guessing<br />

about the BoJ's next move. Despite the negative news about GDP<br />

growth over the last three quarters, the bond market, was sold<br />

off thanks to some stronger data like machinery orders and<br />

industrial production during the month of February. However,<br />

inflation and employment data disappointed again at the end of<br />

the quarter causing a three week rally in the bond market.<br />

Bonds markets performed favourably in the second quarter<br />

of 2005, returning 2.99% in local currency terms (Citigroup WGBI).<br />

In the US, bonds returned 3.64%. As expected, the Fed raised<br />

interest rates at each meeting by 0.25%, pushing the overnight<br />

rate to 3.25% by the end of the quarter. It also retained its pledge<br />

to raise rates at no more than a “measured” pace, and continued<br />

to describe policy as “accommodative”.<br />

While in the UK bonds returned +4.80%, the second quarter<br />

of 2005 was dominated by a turnaround in market interest rate<br />

expectations from a 25bp hike to a 50bp cut by the end of the<br />

year. The Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) failed to give in to<br />

market pressure to hike rates to 5% early in the quarter, predictably<br />

keeping rates on hold at 4.75%. Eurozone bonds returned 3.76%.<br />

Once again the ECB left rates on hold during the quarter. The<br />

ECB’s decision to maintain a 2% repo rate was universally expected,<br />

amid the general weakness of recent data.<br />

In Japan, bonds returned 1.03%. The BoJ left policy unchanged<br />

during the quarter. However, a new clause was inserted into the<br />

BoJ’s official policy statement validating market expectations of a<br />

modest technical adjustment which now permits the current<br />

account balances to fall below the target range of JPY 30-35 trillion.<br />

This amendment also reflects the fact that the economy appears<br />

to be in a recovery phase.<br />

Bonds markets performed negatively in the third quarter of<br />

2005, returning -0.50% in local currency terms (Citigroup WGBI).<br />

In the US bonds returned -1.11%, the Fed continued to raise<br />

rates at a measured pace over Q3. After two consecutive hikes<br />

the Fed <strong>Funds</strong> ended the quarter at 3.75%, in line with expectations.<br />

In its statement, the Fed retained its view that the ongoing monetary<br />

accommodation, along with robust underlying growth in productivity,<br />

is providing support to economic activity.<br />

In UK, bonds returned +0.37% and the MPC delivered a long<br />

awaited rate cut on the basis of their downward revisions to<br />

growth and expectations of second round oil effects. Further cuts<br />

will be dependent on how the inflation story unfolds. Meanwhile<br />

in Eurozone, bonds returned 0.49%. The ECB left rates on hold<br />

during the third quarter. The ECB’s decision to maintain the 2%<br />

repo rate was in line with consensus expectations, due to the<br />

general weakness and growing divergence of the economy.<br />

In Japan, bonds returned -1.31% with the BoJ left policy<br />

unchanged during the quarter. However, a few speeches from BOJ’s<br />

Policy Board members have underlying that the time to exit from<br />

the quantitative easing policy is getting closer. The stabilisation of<br />

core consumer prices at zero or above has been identified as an<br />

important criterion to change policy.<br />

Bonds markets performed positively in the fourth quarter<br />

of 2005, returning 0.33% in local currency terms (Citigroup WGBI).<br />

In US, bonds returned +0.72% and the Fed continued to raise<br />

rates at a measured pace over Q4. After two consecutive hikes<br />

the Fed <strong>Funds</strong> ended the quarter at 4.25%, in line with expectations.<br />

In its statement, the Fed expressed its view that the economy<br />

advanced a great deal over the past months.<br />

In UK, bonds returned +2.76% and the Bank of England left<br />

rates unchanged at 4.50% throughout Q4. In the beginning of the<br />

quarter policy makers expressed a growing concern about potentially<br />

accelerating inflationary pressures. Later on, however, headline<br />

inflation eased to 2.1%, close to the BoE target so market focus<br />

shifted back towards the state of the economy. In Eurozone, bonds<br />

returned -0.12%. The ECB raised its benchmark rate by a quarter<br />

of a percent to 2.25% in early December, possibly marking the<br />

start of a series of measured rate hikes. The decision came in line<br />

with market expectations. The central bank seemed increasingly<br />

concerned about potential inflationary pressures, although actual<br />

figures showed a resilience after the highs seen in September.<br />

Japan bonds returned 0.22%. The BoJ left policy unchanged<br />

during the quarter. The iterated BoJ’s assessment stated that<br />

Japan’s economy is expected to recover; domestic private demand<br />

GREATLINK GLOBAL SUPREME FUND report as at 31 December 2005<br />

is likely to continue increasing against the background of high<br />

corporate profits and the moderate rise in household income,<br />

while structural adjustment pressure, such as the excess debt of<br />

firms, has almost dissipated.<br />

MARKET OUTLOOK<br />

Equity<br />

With robust economies in the U.S. and emerging markets<br />

and sustainable recoveries taking hold in the eurozone and Japan,<br />

the global economy appears poised for higher-than-average growth<br />

despite the drag of high energy prices and rising short-term interest<br />

rates. While energy prices tax growth, their inflationary impact<br />

should continue to be offset by globalization, spare capacity and<br />

rising productivity in many industries, which continues to keep<br />

labor costs and prices for consumer goods in check. With regard<br />

to interest rates, the Federal Reserve is looking to move from an<br />

accommodative policy to a neutral one and not to a policy of tight<br />

money, rate increases by the European Central Bank are expected<br />

to be limited, and the Bank of Japan is under political pressure to<br />

avoid prematurely abandoning its quantitative easing policy. More<br />

importantly, long-term interest rates remain low.<br />

Equity valuations are reasonable, profits are healthy and many<br />

companies, particularly in Europe, are becoming leaner through<br />

restructuring. Corporations have built up cash, and while some of<br />

that is being used to increase dividends and buy-backs, some will<br />

likely be spent on capital investments and employment. Putting idle<br />

cash to work should improve the return on equity for many companies.<br />

In Japan, ongoing structural changes in the economy and<br />

prudent policy measures continue to underpin our belief in a<br />

gradual, sustainable recovery. Equity market valuations continue<br />

to look attractive and earnings fundamentals seem to support<br />

further market upside. We see investment opportunities in industry<br />

consolidation and turnaround situations, beneficiaries of secular<br />

growth trends and rising prices, improved corporate governance<br />

and niche players whose market dominance is well-established.<br />

Fixed income<br />

For the second Fixed Income Viewpoint running, we start our<br />

thoughts with the world energy situation. We make no excuse for<br />

this – in our last Viewpoint we said we did not think oil prices will<br />

be falling back to the $30 per barrel level in the immediate future,<br />

and we continue to hold that view. Indeed, recent events, not least<br />

the interruption to Russia gas supplies to Europe, show quite how<br />

tight the global energy market is, and with OPEC running at close<br />

to capacity, these are structural issues that don’t get resolved in<br />

a year or two. So we believe that high oil prices are, unfortunately,<br />

going to stick around a little longer than expected. We say<br />

“unfortunately”, but for bond markets, the main consequence we<br />

expect is that it should keep a lid on growth running ahead of trend<br />

– which is good news for bond investors as it means that central<br />

banks need not get ahead of the curve in terms of reducing the<br />

monetary accommodation that currently exists in the US, Europe<br />

and even Japan. Interest rates may head higher into 2006, but at a<br />

measured pace. Unless, of course, the impact of higher oil prices<br />

is on increased inflation expectations. That would be bad news for<br />

bond investors in these 3 main regions. However, that is not our<br />

base case expectation. We expect higher rates in the US to start<br />

to bite, with the effect of slowing the housing market and the<br />

consumer by the second half of the year. That should provide the<br />

Federal Reserve Bank sufficient reason to pause around 4.75 to<br />

5%. Bond yields would rise correspondingly, but should be fairly<br />

well-supported by continued pension demand and recycling of<br />

central bank reserves. The curve is as flat as flat can be, with a<br />

slight chance of inversion. If our base case scenario plays out, we<br />

should see the yield curve re-steepening in the second half of 2006.<br />

We are coming close to the end of the US cycle, but are only<br />

beginning to see the start of the cycle in Europe and Japan. The<br />

European Central Bank is expected to bring rates up to about<br />

3%, from the current 2.25%. Again, the rationale is to remove the<br />

accommodative monetary conditions. The front end should continue<br />

to suffer, both against the longer end of Europe, as well as against<br />

the US. Swap spreads should also widen from a combination of<br />

flatter curves, and an expected pick up in volatility as a result of<br />

this shift in monetary policy. In addition, there should be less<br />

swapping activity in the primary issuance market as the flatter<br />

curves provide issuers with less of an incentive to reduce their<br />

borrowing costs to the short end. Inflation bonds should perform<br />

fairly well in line with nominal bonds. There is less expectation of<br />

runaway inflation, now that the central bank is tightening monetary<br />

policy. In addition, oil prices should moderate, although at current<br />

high levels. There is a high chance though that the ECB may find<br />

its work done if the Euro strengthens against the USD.<br />

The UK monetary cycle appears to be the lone one that’s<br />

bucking the general global trend. The problems facing the UK<br />

economy are not minute – deteriorating fiscal situation, a consumer<br />

that’s already heavily in debt, and weak private sector employment<br />

growth. The housing market remains the one pillar of hope for<br />

the UK consumer, and there have been signs of stabilization<br />

recently. Nevertheless, there are strong enough reasons for rates<br />

to be lower than the current levels, not least of all the expected<br />

slowing of inflation rates.<br />

As for the Scandinavian countries, we like Norwegian bonds<br />

as it carries argument for a lot of good news on the economy<br />

fueled by oil prices, and hence rate hikes have been priced into<br />

the yield curve. Inflation has increased slightly, but is still below<br />

the central bank’s target of 2.5%. As is the case for Swedish<br />

inflation, running at less than a percent year-on-year, and more<br />

than a full percent below the central bank’s target. Swedish bonds<br />

should perform in line with European bond markets.<br />

Over in Japan, it’s a case of who has the stronger will – the<br />

Bank of Japan, or the government which points to the last slip<br />

back in the economy being the result of a then premature tightening<br />

of monetary policy. Growth in Japan has been more broad-based,<br />

spreading over to the consumer this year. Capital investment has<br />

been extraordinarily strong in 2005, and is not expected to continue<br />

at its current pace though. From the bond market perspective,<br />

yields are not expected to break out of their current trading<br />

range. Our bias is to be short structurally, however we are mindful<br />

of the huge inflows into the JGB markets from the pools of savings<br />

in Japan. Inflation bonds look attractive.<br />

The mid to long term outlook still remains one of guarded<br />

caution. We have a new man at the helm of the Federal Reserve.<br />

Gearing is still extremely high in the financial markets. Central<br />

banks are walking a tightrope between over-tightening and allowing<br />

the uncertainty over commodities prices to fan inflation<br />

expectations. Hence, bonds still remain a good bet, once the Fed<br />

rate gets closer to 5%.<br />

MARKET REVIEW<br />

Global equity markets rose 16.3% in local currency terms for<br />

the year of 2005. In the US, the S&P 500 rose 4.9% y-o-y on the<br />

back of encouraging economic releases. Both the manufacturing and<br />

service sectors showed continued growth, third-quarter productivity<br />

was revised upward, and the Conference Board’s Leading Index and<br />

Consumer Confidence Index both rose. Also, the Federal Open<br />

Market Committee raised short-term interest rates another quarter<br />

point to 4.25% in December, but dropped the reference to policy<br />

“accommodation” in its statement, suggesting it may be nearing an<br />

end to rate hikes. Outside the US, Japan (+44.7%) was the bestperforming<br />

developed market, with Europe (+25.5%) and Pac Basin<br />

ex Japan (+20.3%) generating positive returns as well in local currency<br />

terms. Emerging market equities (+34.5%) outperformed developed<br />

markets (+10.0%) in US dollar terms.<br />

Bond market performance was mixed in 2005. Government issues,<br />

as represented by the Citigroup World Government Bond Index,<br />

registered a -6.9% return in US dollar terms. The credit sectors also<br />

performed poorly while emerging market debt rose 9.3% for the year.<br />

During the period, the US dollar appreciated versus most<br />

major currencies, with greatest gains realized against the Swiss<br />

franc (-13.3%), the Japanese yen (-13.1%) and the euro (-12.6%).<br />

The <strong>Great</strong>link Global Optimum Fund outperformed its<br />

benchmark during the period. Both the equity and fixed income<br />

subportfolios contributed positively. Within the equity subportfolio,<br />

outperformance was driven by strong stock selection in the<br />

Consumer Staples and Energy sectors. Within Fixed Income,<br />

currency strategies were the key contributor. Asset allocation<br />

strategies, however, detracted from overall performance primarily<br />

due to the drag from cash allocation.<br />

MARKET OUTLOOK<br />

Typically at this point in the economic cycle, the risk of a<br />

pullback in global equities is high. Monetary tightening has, in the<br />

past, often gone too far, inducing either an economic slowdown or<br />

recession. While this is a clear risk, particularly with the Fed sending<br />

signals that the tightening cycle will continue, we remain moderately<br />

optimistic regarding further equity gains for three primary reasons.<br />

First, the theme that the global economy is transitioning to<br />

a below-average “steady-state” rate of growth remains intact.<br />

Second, equity valuations, while elevated relative to historical levels,<br />

remain reasonable. Finally, sentiment, while not at an extremely<br />

supportive level, is consistent with further equity market gains.<br />

It is important to point out that despite our relatively positive<br />

outlook, the risk-reward profile for global equities has deteriorated<br />

in recent quarters. The steady state is inherently fragile and investors<br />

who have become accustomed to thinking within a cyclical framework<br />

will periodically believe that the economy is either accelerating or<br />

weakening. If an event occurs to shock the global economy out of<br />

the steady state, there is much more scope for valuations to<br />

contract than to expand. Consequently, on a risk-adjusted basis,<br />

equities are less attractive than they were earlier this year.<br />

We remain underweight bonds in all portfolios, but less so than<br />

in recent quarters. We believe that bond yields will move higher, but<br />

as the cycle advances, the probability that yields remain low rises.<br />

We remain favorably disposed to EMD, though in the near term this<br />

asset class is vulnerable as valuations are near all-time extremes.<br />

MARKET REVIEW<br />

2005 was the second year of relatively low and concentrated<br />

returns in IT investments. Stocks such as Google (+115%), Apple<br />

(+114%), Hon Hai Precision (+42%), Samsung (+46%) drove much<br />

of the return.<br />

The recovery in IT spending that began in late 2002 continued<br />

through 2005 with data center consolidation, PC replacement and<br />

mobility in the form of notebook computing driving corporate<br />

spending. Higher-function handsets and devices such as the iPod<br />

have provided important innovation on the consumer front that<br />

has also driven demand. Importantly, we do not expect the demand<br />

for Information Technology to wane.<br />

Overall, the MSCI IT Index returned 9.0% in total return<br />

versus the <strong>Great</strong>link Global Tech Fund which increased by 5.1% # .<br />

This performance was a solid second quartile result relative to<br />

peers, but lagged the overall MSCI IT Index somewhat<br />

disappointingly. Performance was helped to a great degree by<br />

exposure to internet names such as Google, but suffered from<br />

insufficient exposure to Asian equities.<br />

MARKET OUTLOOK<br />

In 2006, we expect the market will begin to discount a<br />

number of secular trends that begin in 2006 but remain in force<br />

far beyond. We see projects picking up in both enterprise and<br />

service provider areas as corporate coffers remain full and IT<br />

infrastructure continues to age. From a secular perspective,<br />

exciting consumer opportunities also exist. Internet advertising,<br />

wireless data, broadband access and RFID are but a few of the<br />

project based spending programs that we believe the market will<br />

discount as we move through 2006. With valuations for many<br />

technology stocks lower than at any time in 5 years, we believe<br />

investors will begin to build positions for what we expect will<br />

be a strong two years of product driven demand.<br />

MARKET REVIEW<br />

For the half year ended 31 December 2005, the fund gained<br />

9.23% (bid-bid), outperforming the benchmark MSCI World<br />

Unhedged index which rose 8.65%.<br />

The Index ended the year up 11.52% (SGD), with Canada and<br />

Austria gaining the most ground on an absolute basis. The United<br />

States, at almost half the index weight, was the biggest positive<br />

contributor (weight times performance) to Index gains for the year.<br />

Nine of the 10 sectors in the Index experienced positive<br />

results, with the Energy and Materials sectors posting the strongest<br />

absolute returns. Top-weighted Financials was the biggest contributor<br />

to the Index gain for the month while Telecommunication Services<br />

was the only sector to detract for the period.<br />

In managing the CORE SM products, we take minimal size and<br />

sector bets. We hope to add value versus each Fund’s respective<br />

index through individual stock selection. Our quantitative process<br />

seeks out stocks with good momentum that also appear to be<br />

good values. We prefer stocks about which fundamental research<br />

analysts are becoming more positive, and companies with strong<br />

profit margins, sustainable earnings and who use their capital to<br />

enhance shareholder value.<br />

The Fund underperformed its benchmark slightly by 23 bps<br />

on a net of fee basis during the year, returning +11.29%. Stock<br />

selection contributed approximately 120 bps to relative performance<br />

for the month. Returns to the CORE themes were positive, with<br />

Momentum contributing the most to relative performance.<br />

Valuation, Earnings Quality, Profitability, Analyst Sentiment and<br />

Management Impact also added value, albeit to a lesser extent.<br />

During the period, the Equity Country Selection Strategy and<br />

Currency selection strategy contributed positively to performance<br />

by approximately 48 bps. Within the Equity Country Selection<br />

Strategy, the top contributors to performance were overweight<br />

positions in Norway (266 bps) and Austria (183 bps). The biggest<br />

detractors from performance were an underweight position in<br />

Japan during the third quarter of 2005 (-92 bps for the year) and<br />

an underweight position in Switzerland throughout 2005 (-91 bps).<br />

Within the Currency Selection Strategy, the largest contributors<br />

to performance were our underweight positions in the Swiss franc<br />

(52 bps) and the UK pound sterling (18 bps). On the other hand,<br />

the biggest detractors from performance were an overweight position<br />

in the Norwegian krone (-101 bps) and an overweight position in<br />

the euro during the first half of 2005 (-58 bps for the year).<br />

MARKET OUTLOOK<br />

Looking ahead, we continue to believe that cheaper stocks<br />

should outpace more expensive ones and good momentum stocks<br />

should do better than poor momentum stocks. We also prefer<br />

names about which fundamental research analysts are becoming<br />

more positive and companies that are profitable, have sustainable<br />

earnings and use their capital to enhance shareholder value. As<br />

such, we anticipate remaining fully invested and expect that the<br />

value we add over time will be due to stock selection, as opposed<br />

to sector or size allocations.<br />

MARKET REVIEW<br />

It was a good year for global equities, supported by strong<br />

profit growth. Global economic growth was good and inflation<br />

remained subdued. The best results among developed markets<br />

came from Japan. Resource rich countries such as Canada were<br />

also strong. Commodity indices registered a fourth-straight year<br />

of increases, helped by strong demand.<br />

Energy stocks led the markets for the first three quarters<br />

and had the best returns by far for the year fuelled by soaring oil<br />

prices. Crude oil futures reached a peak of US$67.9 in the third<br />

quarter then eased back below US$60 towards the end of the<br />

year. Cyclical stocks took the lead in the fourth quarter, with<br />

materials and industrials ending the year with large gains. Financials<br />

also had good results thanks to record profits. Mergers and<br />

acquisitions occurred at a feverish pace, with global deal volume<br />

up 38% from 2004, according to preliminary year-end data. Private<br />

equity transactions also ran high as well as underwriting, with<br />

many high profile IPOs outside the US. The telecommunications<br />

services sector was the weakest by far. Investors grew increasingly<br />

concerned about bleak growth prospects (in developed markets),<br />

pressure on profit margins and fears that cash-rich operators<br />

would overpay for acquisitions.<br />

Current account imbalances showed no sign of correcting.<br />

Despite this, the US dollar defied conventional wisdom and rose,<br />

thanks to higher interest rates. Despite many doubters, the U.S.<br />

economy remained strong in the face of high energy prices, natural<br />

disasters, concerns about US consumers, and rising interest rates.<br />

The Federal Reserve raised the federal funds rate from 2.25% to<br />

4.25%, though their stated goal is not to achieve a tight monetary<br />

policy, but rather, to move from an accommodative policy to a<br />

neutral one.<br />

The European equity markets rallied throughout most of<br />

2005 and finished the year with good annual returns. There were<br />

signs that an economic recovery was beginning to take hold in<br />

the eurozone, and, in a move that was widely anticipated in the<br />

market, the European Central Bank raised interest rates by a<br />

quarter percent to 2.25% on 1 December. In the UK, the government<br />

reduced its economic growth forecast for 2005 and 2006.<br />

The gradual economic recovery in Japan gained believers as<br />

the year progressed. The stock market surged. Reforms regained<br />

momentum after the prime minister’s landslide victory in a snap<br />

parliamentary election which reinforced his mandate for reform<br />

including the proposed privatization of Japan Post.<br />

Currencies played a major role over the year with rising<br />

interest rates in the U.S. helping to support the dollar which<br />

strengthened 15% against the euro, 12% against the British pound<br />

and 15% against the Japanese yen.<br />

GREATLINK GLOBAL VALUE EQUITY FUND report as at 31 December 2005<br />

MARKET OUTLOOK<br />

With robust economies in the U.S. and emerging markets<br />

and sustainable recoveries taking hold in the eurozone and Japan,<br />

the global economy appears poised for higher-than-average growth<br />

despite the drag of high energy prices and rising short-term interest<br />

rates. While energy prices tax growth, their inflationary impact<br />

should continue to be offset by globalization, spare capacity and<br />

rising productivity in many industries, which continues to keep<br />

labor costs and prices for consumer goods in check. With regard<br />

to interest rates, the Federal Reserve is looking to move from an<br />

accommodative policy to a neutral one and not to a policy of tight<br />

money, rate increases by the European Central Bank are expected<br />

to be limited, and the Bank of Japan is under political pressure to<br />

avoid prematurely abandoning its quantitative easing policy. More<br />

importantly, long-term interest rates remain low.<br />

Equity valuations are reasonable, profits are healthy and many<br />

companies, particularly in Europe, are becoming leaner through<br />

restructuring. Corporations have built up cash, and while some of<br />

that is being used to increase dividends and buy-backs, some will<br />

likely be spent on capital investments and employment. Putting<br />

idle cash to work should improve the return on equity for many<br />

companies.<br />

In Japan, ongoing structural changes in the economy and<br />

prudent policy measures continue to underpin our belief in a<br />

gradual, sustainable recovery. Equity market valuations continue<br />

to look attractive and earnings fundamentals seem to support<br />

further market upside. We see investment opportunities in industry<br />

consolidation and turnaround situations, beneficiaries of secular<br />

growth trends and rising prices, improved corporate governance<br />

and niche players whose market dominance is well established.<br />

MARKET REVIEW<br />

Global equity markets rose 16.3% in local currency terms<br />

for the year of 2005. In the US, the S&P 500 rose 4.9% y-o-y on<br />

the back of encouraging economic releases. Both the manufacturing<br />

and service sectors showed continued growth, third-quarter<br />

productivity was revised upward, and the Conference Board’s<br />

Leading Index and Consumer Confidence Index both rose. Also,<br />

the Federal Open Market Committee raised short-term interest<br />

rates another quarter point to 4.25% in December, but dropped<br />

the reference to policy “accommodation” in its statement, suggesting<br />

it may be nearing an end to rate hikes.<br />

Outside the US, Japan (+44.7%) was the best-performing<br />

developed market, with Europe (+25.5%) and Pac Basin ex Japan<br />

(+20.3%) generating positive returns as well in local currency<br />

terms. Emerging market equities (+34.5%) outperformed developed<br />

markets (+10.0%) in US dollar terms.<br />

The <strong>Great</strong>link Global Intersection Fund outperformed its<br />

benchmark during the period, aided by strong security selection<br />

in the Energy, Health Care and Consumer Staples sectors.<br />

MARKET OUTLOOK<br />

For the last two years, equities’ primary headwind was<br />

excessive valuation. This raised many concerns, as an abrupt<br />

valuation adjustment held the potential for sharply negative equity<br />

market returns, particularly in the US. During this time, equity<br />

valuations adjusted in the healthiest and least painful manner<br />

possible; earnings grew strongly in excess of consensus expectations,<br />

and P/E multiples gradually contracted. As we stand today, global<br />

equity market multiples have converged to a fairly narrow range.<br />

Provided that the economic cycle moderates to a steady-state<br />

rate of growth, as we expect, the probabilities of P/E multiple<br />

expansion and contraction are now approximately in balance. This<br />

represents a clear improvement versus the last two years.<br />

The counterpoint to this optimistic condition, and what<br />

makes the environment less bullish looking forward, is our<br />

expectation of continued deterioration in the corporate earnings<br />

outlook. As the economic cycle continues to advance, in part as<br />

a US housing slowdown reduces the amount of mortgage equity<br />

likely to be extracted by consumers, we expect corporate earnings<br />

to continue to decelerate in nearly all regions; Japan is a most<br />

notable exception. In 2006, earnings growth in many regions will<br />

fall to or below trend growth rates, thereby limiting the scope for<br />

equity market returns. Indeed, the valuation adjustment of the last<br />

two years was quite important, as the possibility of valuation<br />

expansion makes a strong equity market a reasonable bet in 2006.<br />

Even so, modest earnings growth means that even a small amount<br />

of P/E contraction would result in negative equity market returns.<br />

Therein lies the challenge for 2006.<br />

MARKET REVIEW*<br />

Performance Review (Aug 2001 to Dec 2005)<br />

Global equity markets recovered their first half losses during<br />

the latter part of the year, as the MSCI World ended the year up<br />

9.49%. Markets were led by energy stocks, amid a 40% rise in<br />

crude oil prices, record profits, and continued strong energy<br />

demand worldwide. Material stocks also outperformed on continued<br />

voracious appetite for raw materials, especially from emerging<br />

economies like China and India. Technology, healthcare and financial<br />

stocks posted substantial gains as well, but trailed the performance<br />

of the leading sectors.<br />

Luxembourg GGTP strongly outperformed the MSCI World<br />

Index during the period. As expected, stock selection drove our<br />

premium. In the year, a strong showing by our energy and naturalresource,<br />

healthcare, technology, and financial stocks led our<br />

outperformance against the core benchmark. Our holdings in<br />

Halliburton, Nomura, Alcon, Mitsubish Financial and Mitsubishi<br />

figured among the top individual contributors to the Luxembourg<br />

GGTP’s performance in 2005.<br />

On the negative side, a poor showing by our holdings in the<br />

consumer growth sector mitigated some of our relative gains.<br />

Among top individual detractors, Citigroup, Air Products, Ranbaxy,<br />

AIG and eBay stood out in the year.<br />

GREATLINK GLOBAL GROWTH TRENDS PORTFOLIO report as at 31 December 2005<br />

As we ended 2005, Luxembourg GGTP had maintained an<br />

overweight position in the healthcare, technology, and energy and<br />

natural-resource sectors. We also held a small overweight in<br />

infrastructure while holding underweight positions in the financial<br />

and consumer sectors. We focused much of our recent trading<br />

activity in adjusting intra-sector positioning, especially in finance,<br />

technology, and energy and natural-resource sectors.<br />

MARKET OUTLOOK AND STRATEGY*<br />

Several wild cards remain as we enter 2006, chief among<br />

them the ongoing volatility in the energy markets, the sustainability<br />

of current relatively high levels of consumer spending (mainly in<br />

the key US market) and a recent inversion of the US yield curve.<br />

As of late December, it appeared that oil was in for a period<br />

of more stable, albeit still lofty, prices. Barring any exogenous<br />

shocks, our economists believe that oil might stabilize somewhat<br />

in 2006 around an average price of $55 a barrel. On the spending<br />

front, higher energy prices have undoubtedly created headwinds<br />

for the US consumer, a key engine of global growth. Although<br />

below the 1970s highs, energy costs as a percentage of personal<br />

income are now at a 10-year peak. In addition, US consumers<br />

have become increasingly dependent on borrowing against the<br />

price appreciation of their homes to supplement their spending<br />

power, and a continued rise in mortgage rates, or downturn in<br />

housing prices, could trigger a pullback.<br />

Late in the fourth quarter, investors also fretted about an<br />

inversion in the US yield curve (when the yield paid on the 10-<br />

year note dropped below the yield on the two-year instrument)<br />

as some perceived the phenomenon as a presage to an economic<br />

slowdown. Although the jury is still out on that discussion, it is<br />

worth noting that a growing chorus of analysts, including outgoing<br />

Fed chairman Alan Greenspan, has recently challenged the yield<br />

curve’s forecasting ability. That’s because foreign buying of US<br />

debt instruments—particularly long-term ones—has been<br />

particularly heavy, an occurrence that has, in the view of many<br />

analysts, kept long-term yields unusually low even as the Fed<br />

continued to hike short-term rates.<br />

As we look ahead, we remain cognizant of these risks and<br />

will continue to monitor the environment closely. But, in spite of<br />

these wild cards, the opportunity for growth investors remains,<br />

in our view, particularly attractive at this juncture, and we are<br />

confident that our Luxembourg GGTP is well-positioned to reap<br />

the benefits of a renewed growth cycle and to surprise the<br />

consensus view on the upside.<br />

MARKET REVIEW<br />

Since inception, the fund gained 8% (bid-bid), underperforming<br />

the benchmark S&P/Citi BMI World Property index which rose 9.09%.<br />

Europe and US<br />

Since the fund’s inception in June, North American and<br />

European Real Estate securities performance has been driven by<br />

interest rate and economic growth concerns and balanced by<br />

improving real estate fundamentals. In this type of environment,<br />

real estate companies that have the ability to grow their dividends<br />

and create shareholder value beyond “positive spread” investing<br />

tend to perform well. Our overweight positions in companies like,<br />

Simon Property Group and General Growth Properties, that have<br />

delivered strong dividend growth and can create shareholder value<br />

through development, re-development and embedded pricing power,<br />

aided our performance. Our position in cash as the fund launched<br />

and ramped up detracted our performance versus the benchmark.<br />

Asia<br />

At inception, the Asian portion of the Fund was overweight<br />

in Singapore and Hong Kong, which were funded by the underweight<br />

in Japan. We were neutral on Australia.<br />

The Singapore property sector started the period on a strong<br />

footing, boosted by surprise changes to the Singapore housing<br />

mortgage policies in July to stimulate the residential housing market.<br />

The award of the tender of the new Business and Financial Centre<br />

and the long anticipated decision on legalising casino operations<br />

generated follow-through interest on the property sector. Sentiment<br />

continued to build in the luxury residential segment, leading to<br />

better performance in developers versus the S-REITs, particularly<br />

after concerns over rising bond yields and numerous capital raisings<br />

restrained performance. The call for more transparency in REIT<br />

managers further dampened investor sentiment on S-REITs.<br />

CapitaLand and Hong Kong’s Sun Hung Kai emerged as the winner<br />

for the Orchard Turn land parcel worth S$1.38b. Developers are<br />

clearly bullish on property, given the high bid and the increase in<br />

foreign developers’ participation in the auction.<br />

In Hong Kong, the larger than expected rise in interest rates<br />

severely curtailed demand. While property prices were up for the<br />

period, transaction volumes dried up almost entirely towards the<br />

year-end as investors hoped for more clarity in the interest rate<br />

outlook. The office segment performed well on strong rental revisions<br />

and good take-up rates while the lack of supply also helped. The<br />

three REIT IPOs in 2005 all did well versus the broader market,<br />

with the first IPO, Link REIT returning 42% above IPO price as<br />

investors discounted its cost cutting and asset enhancement potential.<br />

JREITs started the period weak when Japanese bond yields<br />

rose to reflect a stronger economic outlook. This worked in favour<br />

of the real estate developers as anticipation of the end of deflation<br />

created optimism in terms of higher asset prices. On their part,<br />

the developers have been turning in stronger performances on<br />

improved operating conditions in areas such as office building<br />

leasing and investment and the confirmation of strong earnings<br />

and capital expenditure momentum at Japanese companies.<br />

Fundamentals are solid in the sector. Large and new buildings in<br />

favourable locations continue to be almost fully occupied upon<br />

opening and rents in Tokyo’s five central wards have continued<br />

GREATLINK GLOBAL REAL ESTATE SECURITIES FUND report as at 31 December 2005<br />

rising over the past six months. The sale of two buildings owned<br />

by Mori Trust in late December, to U.S. insurer AIG at record<br />

prices, boosted sentiments further.<br />

In Australia, property trust returns for the year were constrained<br />

by interest rate concerns, relatively large volumes of equity issuance<br />

and narrower investment spreads that made accretive acquisitions<br />

difficult. However, property markets have been well-behaved with<br />

fundamentals improving in the office and industrial markets and<br />

holding up in retail despite slowing retail sales growth.<br />

Over the period, the overweight position in Singapore was<br />

retained in view of its early stage of recovery while the initial overweight<br />

in Hong Kong was adjusted to reflect concerns over the rising risk<br />

of higher Hong Kong interest rates. The Fund added to the exposure<br />

in Japan as data released pointed to a sustainable recovery for the<br />

economy. To fund this, we reduced our exposure to Australia.<br />

MARKET OUTLOOK<br />

Europe and US<br />

The U.S. economy grew comfortably in 2005 with annual GDP<br />

growth expected to be well approximately 3.6% and an additional<br />

2 million jobs added to the work force. 2006 U.S. GDP growth is<br />

forecasted to be 3.4% based on a composite of leading economists.<br />

An environment in 2006 of stable interest rates and economic<br />

growth bodes well for real estate fundamentals and earnings growth.<br />

Real estate securities, based on dividend yield and earnings<br />

growth, still appear attractive relative to bonds and general equities<br />

and continue to appear attractive relative to net asset value. In<br />

2006, we expect further mergers and acquisitions to occur in the<br />

sector as demand for commercial real estate from pension funds<br />

and private investors continues. We expect the private sector bid<br />

to keep the net supply of new stock relatively stable. Gross equity<br />

issuance for U.S. real estate securities totaled approximately $28<br />

billion in 2004 and 2005, well off from the peak issuance years of<br />

1997 and 1998, when equity issuance totaled over $40 billion.<br />

Privatizations in 2004 and 2005 removed approximately $13.1<br />

billion from the North American public security investable universe.<br />

We believe building costs will continue to escalate above<br />

inflation in 2006; while this will prevent some speculative new<br />

supply, we continue to believe the return requirement for<br />

development from institutional investors will remain low compared<br />

to historical standards resulting in “normalized” levels of new real<br />

estate supply. We view the primary risks to real estate securities<br />

in 2006 as un-anticipated increases in interest rates, capital flow<br />

rotation out of value stocks to growth stocks and a leveling of<br />

the relative attractiveness versus stocks and bonds.<br />

In 2006, we continue our retail, hotel and industrial overweights,<br />

as we believe they continue to offer the best combination of<br />

earnings growth and reasonable valuations in a period of continued<br />

economic growth. Regional Mall and Hotel companies have<br />

tremendous pricing power and some industrial markets are<br />

switching from tenant pricing power to landlord pricing power.<br />

We remain underweight but opportunistically selective in the<br />

office sector and multi-family sector. In the office sector we<br />

continue to see landlord pricing power in certain markets,<br />

particularly New York, Washington D.C., and Southern California,<br />

however, we believe it is still a tenant driven market across most<br />

of the sector for 2006 and we expect to get more visibility on<br />

pricing power in the middle of the year. Another year of 2 million<br />

new jobs created should position the office markets well for a<br />

2007 recovery. We believe multi-family companies will provide<br />

reasonable relative earnings growth in 2006 and perhaps a few<br />

upside earnings surprises; however, we believe that current<br />

valuations accurately reflect growth prospects and believe the<br />

condo conversion premium embedded in many multi-family net<br />

asset values will begin to abate in 2006. We also continue to add<br />

Canadian real estate securities to the portfolio as relative valuations<br />

began to look attractive after a recent pullback.<br />

In Europe, capital flows into private and public real estate are<br />

expected to remain strong. We see continued rental growth and<br />

recovery in some European office markets, particularly London and<br />

Paris, additionally Madrid. We are closely monitoring the interest<br />

rate environment in Europe after the recent European Central Bank<br />

rate increase and currently favor companies that can create value<br />

through leveraging institutional equity capital, strong development<br />

and re-development pipelines and companies that benefit from the<br />

higher growth economies of <strong>Eastern</strong> Europe. We are more cautious<br />

on the U.K. given the recent price run up in anticipation of REIT<br />

legislation, though we do anticipate that REIT legislation will be<br />

passed in either the UK, Germany or both in 2006.<br />

Asia<br />

The Hong Kong property market is watching intently for a<br />

peaking in interest rates which had caused transaction volumes<br />

to decline markedly during last year. The market expectation is<br />

that interest rates are close to a peak and the pent-up demand<br />

produced thus far will create a positive environment for Hong<br />

Kong property prices. The office segment will do well as continued<br />

strong office demand is boosted by a new high in hiring intent, at<br />

a time when vacancies are at or below critical levels and no large<br />

completions are expected till 2008. Home buying activity will pick<br />

up after the Lunar New Year as tight labour market and strong<br />

pay raises work to edge up prices. Retail property prices are likely<br />

to stay muted because of large rises already experienced in 2004.<br />

In Singapore, the pricing strength seen mainly in the luxury<br />

end of the market in 2005 should broaden out this year as the<br />

cycle gains momentum with the resulting price rise likely to be<br />

higher than last year’s. Prime office property should perform the<br />

best within the property sector because of the weak supply<br />

pipeline. One Raffles Quay, the largest office development in 2006,<br />

has been fully taken up while the redevelopment of old commercial<br />

buildings to cater to the demand created by the future integrated<br />

resorts and casino, will further squeeze supply. The Singapore<br />

retail segment will benefit similarly from the casino development,<br />

with the upcoming supply at Vivio City expected to be well<br />

absorbed. As for SREITs, the valuations and spread have become<br />

more attractive and should do well going forward, particularly<br />

when interest rates peak.<br />

Australian property prices are expected to remain stable as<br />

long as the unemployment rate stays low, and indications of<br />

economic activity does not suggest otherwise. Industrials rents<br />

may see some upside, a consequence of cost-push being experienced<br />

by the economy. Overall valuations are seen as fair, given the<br />

strength of performance since 2004, although increasing funds<br />

flow into property securities globally, and ongoing potential for<br />

value-accretive transactions are likely positives.<br />

The outlook for Japan remains positive. Office rentals in<br />

central Tokyo have shown signs of steady increases since early<br />

2005, a noteworthy achievement considering the prolonged extent<br />

of rental declines. Vacancy rates in good locations have come down<br />

to below 5%, a level where bargaining power of landlords typically<br />

becomes evident. The demand and supply outlook is also benign<br />

with the supply pipeline over the next few years looking constrained<br />

while demand is still in an early stage of recovery underpinned by<br />

the firmer economic outlook. However, the residential sector is<br />

less encouraging as housing starts are still not registering growth.<br />

Over the medium term, this economy will likely experience inflation,<br />

which could accelerate investments in property.<br />

MARKET REVIEW*<br />

For the half year ended 31 December 2005, the fund gained<br />

8.74% (bid-bid), outperforming the benchmark MSCI Europe index<br />

which rose 8.24%.<br />

Economic growth in Europe was disappointing for the first<br />

half of the year, and then began to pick up in the second half.<br />

European equity markets ended the year with solid gains with all<br />

markets providing double-digit returns in local currency terms.<br />

The slow pace of government reform masked huge changes at<br />

the corporate level. Many European companies, especially in Germany,<br />

have been restructuring, becoming much leaner organizations. Voters<br />

in France and the Netherlands rejected a proposed European Union<br />

constitution, while Germany's national election ended in a tenuous<br />

coalition government. In the U.K., the Labour government was<br />

returned to power with a significantly reduced majority.<br />

There were signs that an economic recovery was beginning<br />

to take hold in the eurozone, and, in a move that was widely<br />

anticipated in the market, the European Central Bank raised<br />

interest rates by a quarter percent to 2.25% on 1 December.<br />

While core inflation figures, which exclude volatile items such as<br />

oil and food, remained relatively subdued, the potential inflationary<br />

impact of the rapid increase in money supply and credit growth<br />

alarmed the Bank. Central banks in Norway and Switzerland also<br />

increased rates. The Bank of England reduced interest rates in the<br />

summer and there was speculation that the next interest rate<br />

change in the U.K. would be another cut early in 2006 due to<br />

slower-than-expected economic activity and signs that the housing<br />

market was stabilizing. The U.K. chancellor reduced the government's<br />

economic growth estimates for 2005 and 2006.<br />

Austria, Denmark and Norway made the largest gains over<br />

the period. At the sector level, industrials, materials and energy had<br />

the best returns. The materials sector gained with metal and mining<br />

companies benefiting from higher metals prices. Industrial stocks,<br />

notably electrical equipment, aerospace & defence and construction<br />

& engineering companies, provided good returns. While energy was<br />

one of the strongest sectors for the year, company share prices<br />

have declined since the oil price peaked in August.<br />

Wireless telecommunications was the only sector with<br />

negative returns. Vodafone epitomized poor investor sentiment,<br />

with concerns about margin guidance and strategic direction<br />

impacting the stock.<br />

MARKET OUTLOOK*<br />

We expect the recovery in the eurozone will continue into<br />

2006 and that slightly higher short-term interest rates will not be<br />

an impediment to economic growth. Any additional tightening by<br />

the ECB will be limited, as economic growth is unlikely to be very<br />

strong and globalisation will continue to constrain inflation by<br />

keeping labour costs and prices for consumer goods in check.<br />

We think that the eurozone’s rapid credit growth, which has been<br />

a concern for the ECB, is a reflection of deregulation and innovation<br />

in financial markets rather than a prelude to inflation. More<br />

importantly, companies in Europe, particularly Germany, are<br />

continuing to restructure, becoming leaner and more competitive.<br />

We believe Europe offers attractive investment opportunities;<br />

equity valuations are reasonable, profits are growing and interest<br />

rates remain low.<br />

MARKET REVIEW<br />

For the half year ended 31 December 2005, the fund gained<br />

17.17% (bid-bid), outperforming the benchmark MSCI AC Asia ex-<br />

Japan index which rose 12.51%.<br />

The year 2005 proved to be a good year for the Asian bourses,<br />

although Asian economies were rocked by several catastrophes<br />

including the aftermath of the Asian tsunami, Bali bombing and the<br />

Pakistan earthquake. MSCI Asia Pacific ex Japan index outperformed<br />

the world index, with a total SGD return of 26.09% vs 12.07% for<br />

the world index. In particular, strong liquidity inflows led to the<br />

significant outperformance of Korea and India against the regional<br />

index, while Taiwan, Malaysia and Thailand have underperformed<br />

in the last 2 years, dogged by uncertain policies and depressed<br />

investor sentiment. Despite having to deal with the plunging rupiah<br />

and fuel price hikes, MSCI Indonesia index rose 18% in SGD terms<br />

while China posted a strong 22% return for the whole year. 2005<br />

was also a record year for equity issuance, dominated by China,<br />

raising more than US$25b with large scale deals coming from the<br />

bank and insurance sectors. At a sector level, Energy, Tech and<br />

Healthcare outperformed, while Telecoms and Utilities lagged.<br />

Over the course of 2005, fears of rising inflation was a<br />

prevalent theme across the region, with rates being adjusted<br />

substantially in Indonesia, Hong Kong, Thailand and Singapore. Most<br />

currencies depreciated against the US dollar, especially the Indonesian<br />

rupiah and the Thai baht. 2005 was also a year of widespread<br />

strength among commodity prices, with the CRB Futures index<br />

rising 22.5% and significantly higher prices of energy, precious<br />

metals and base metals. This strength is mainly driven by robust<br />

Chinese growth, low inventories, on-going supply bottlenecks and<br />

supply disruptions.<br />

The fund’s performance can be attributed to stock picks.<br />

Other than in Philippines and Thailand, stock selection in all other<br />

markets added value. The fund has benefited by focusing on the<br />

sectors within the country that will deliver earnings growth and<br />

reasonable dividend yields such as industrial and materials sectors<br />

in Australia, consumer sectors in China, property sector in Hong<br />

Kong and industrials and telecommunications sectors in India. In<br />

terms of country allocation, the overweight in Thailand dragged<br />

down the fund’s performance as the market was hurt by negative<br />

sentiment caused by delayed privatizations, slow development of<br />

the mega-projects, rising inflationary pressure and political risks.<br />

GREATLINK ENHANCER FUND report as at 31 December 2005<br />

2006. From the recent FOMC minutes, the likelihood of peaking<br />

of rates appears evident and we believe that this will be a catalyst<br />

for Asian markets to rally.<br />

China is one of our key overweight markets. The 11th Five<br />

Year Plan highlights the emphasis on boosting domestic consumption<br />

and developing the services sector. Although there are signs that<br />

exports and fixed assets investment are slowing, government’s<br />

initiatives to boost consumption and the continued urbanization<br />

of China will drive the economic growth going forward. Hence,<br />

we will continue to tilt the portfolio towards more consumption<br />

related plays such as property, banks and retail as well as energy/oil<br />

sectors. In contrast, we remain cautious on Hong Kong, on the<br />

back of weakening trade activity, as well as weak retail and property<br />

sales. Valuations are also uncompelling.<br />

Korea’s Kospi jumped a massive 54% in KRW terms in 2005<br />

on the back of strong domestic liquidity due to rising popularity<br />

of monthly installment funds and steady money inflow into equity<br />

funds. We expect the strong liquidity flows to continue and this,<br />

with the recovery in the domestic economy and attractive valuation,<br />

forms the basis of our positive view on Korea. We are neutral on<br />

Taiwan despite the recent rally of Taiex since October, which was<br />

triggered by the earnings upgrade of technology companies. We<br />

believe that a major risk of the market remains in technology<br />

stocks, but the high dividend yield will lend support to the market.<br />

We are neutral on both Australia and India. The pipeline of<br />

capex in mining, oil and gas and infrastructure in Australia should<br />

continue to support the low unemployment rate and good wage<br />

growth. The majority of FY June 06 earnings appear to be lockedin;<br />

with the main contributors being materials and banks. We<br />

remain overweight in the Australian resources sector as China<br />

continues to be hungry for resources while the industrials sector<br />

looks interesting on the back of increased capex spending. We<br />

believe the next phase of growth in India is likely to come from<br />

urban consumption, infrastructure-related spending and cost<br />

arbitrage in manufacturing and services. With low retail participation<br />

in equity market, coupled with low bond yields, as well as strong<br />

growth potential among Indian corporates, the Indian story remains<br />

one of a shift in savings to equities by local investors plus foreign<br />

investors buying the Indian growth theme. That said, valuations of<br />

Indian market do not look cheap.<br />

In Singapore, we favour domestic-oriented stocks which have<br />

an attractive risk-reward profile with stable cashflow and high<br />

dividend yield. We also like the property sector, which could return<br />

to the limelight due to the integrated resorts bidding news flow<br />

and recovering physical market. REITs could see a tough start in<br />

2006. Although the Malaysian market’s underperformance has<br />

pushed valuations to attractive levels, we believe that consensus<br />

2006 earnings are still too optimistic and corporates in general<br />

lack pricing power. The GLC restructuring theme would continue<br />

to feature in terms of newsflow, but this is a long-term structural<br />

change story. We continue to underweight Malaysia. In the TIP<br />

markets, we prefer Thailand to Philippines and Indonesia due to<br />

improvements on the macroeconomic front for these economies.<br />

MARKET REVIEW<br />

For the half year ended 31 December 2005, the fund gained<br />

3.9% (bid-bid), underperforming the benchmark which is a composite<br />

of MSCI Singapore/Malaysia/Philippines/Thailand/Indonesia index<br />

which rose 7.03% (bid-bid). All ASEAN markets posted positive<br />

gains during the year despite soaring oil prices, rising interest rates<br />

and sporadic political unrest.<br />

In Singapore, growth momentum of the economy picked up<br />

pace throughout 2005, supported by improved domestic confidence<br />

and strong job creation. The rise in the stock market was led by<br />

property and offshore marine sectors. The government’s decision to<br />

proceed with the tender for two integrated resorts lifted the property<br />

sector. This move raised hope that the downtown landscape could<br />

see a major transformation, prompting a wave of hectic activities<br />

among prime residential properties and office space. Further easing<br />

of borrowing restrictions for residential property purchases in July<br />

provided sustained momentum for property stocks. Offshore companies<br />

were sought after as order flow momentum accelerated, resulting in<br />

a record order books for Singapore shipyards. Investors were of the<br />

view that the sector was at the beginning of a strong up-cycle due<br />

to ageing rigs and higher demand for rigs capable of operation in the<br />

deeper seas. Banks underperformed the market, owing to challenging<br />

operating environment such as flattening yield curve and anaemic<br />

loans growth. The Malaysia stock market has a disappointing year.<br />

While the market index was marginally higher, most of the smaller<br />

companies ended the year lower. Speculation on the Ringgit peg<br />

sparked periodic interests in the market. However, this turned out<br />

to be a non-event, as interest soon fizzled out when the peg was<br />

actually removed. The government-linked company (GLC) restructuring<br />

led by Khazanah has entered its second year. However, the pace of<br />

restructuring was generally slower than expected, and this was<br />

reflected in the pull-back of the share prices of some GLCs.<br />

Thailand market started the year well but a slew of negative<br />

developments depressed sentiment. Unrest in southern states,<br />

pervasive drought that crimped both agricultural and industrial<br />

output, and increased criticism of Thaksin’s government, coupled<br />

with high oil prices caused the market to fall sharply by the second<br />

quarter. Sentiment remained suppressed after that due to escalating<br />

inflation, interest rate hikes and a delay in EGAT IPO. The Indonesia<br />

market performed well despite a cut in fuel price subsidies which<br />

led to sharply higher inflation and interest rates. Optimism on the<br />

new administration under SBY underpinned the buoyant sentiment.<br />

GREATLINK ASEAN GROWTH FUND report as at 31 December 2005<br />

The Philippines market was strong owing to improved fiscal<br />

position and strong overseas foreign workers’ remittances. The<br />

passage of the VAT law was hailed as a positive move to curb the<br />

escalating fiscal deficit. Market activity was buoyant with strong<br />

foreign participation and more than US$800m was raised in<br />

various IPOs like SMIC, Manila Water, BPI and Semirara.<br />

MARKET OUTLOOK<br />

The economic growth prospect for the region is bright, with<br />

real GDP growth forecasts in the range of between 4.5 to 5.5%.<br />

With the end of the monetary tightening coming to a halt at<br />

around the second quarter of the year, interest rates in ASEAN<br />

should peak as well. ASEAN stock market should perform well,<br />

after a year of lacklustre performance vis-à-vis its North Asian<br />

neighbours.<br />

In Singapore, we continue to favour restructuring plays that<br />

have significantly stronger balance sheets, improved ROE and the<br />

capability to return cash to shareholders. Stock selection will<br />

become more important as we look for companies which are<br />

unlocking values in their balance sheet. We continue to see upside<br />

in the property sector and selective REITs as we position for the<br />

end of the rate tightening cycle. Asset reflation is likely to continue<br />

and we stay weighted in property companies, with the likelihood<br />

of adding weighting to banks later in the year. We overweight<br />

conglomerates and remain selective on telecom and technologyrelated<br />

stocks. We remain cautious on the outlook of the Malaysia<br />

stock market, given the expectation of future interest rate hikes<br />

and slower corporate earnings momentum. We remained<br />

positioned in businesses that have strong balance sheets, competitive<br />

globally and have a reasonable degree of pricing power.<br />

After a year of dismal performance, the outlook for Thailand<br />

stock market is bright. Key catalyst for market performance this<br />

year will hinge on turnaround of domestic investors’ sentiment.<br />

With continued economic growth and expectation that interest<br />

rates hike may be at the tail-end, sentiments are likely to improve.<br />

Sectors such as banking, property and energy are likely to do<br />

well. We are turning more positive on the Indonesian stock<br />

market, ahead of the easing of interest rates expected in the<br />

second half of the year. It appears that investors have factored<br />

this event well ahead, as reflected in the strength of the Rupiah.<br />

We expect divergence in corporate earnings and stock price<br />

performance in the next one to two quarters. The quick response<br />

of BI and the cabinet reshuffle are of comfort despite the shortterm<br />

hardship. In Philippines, we are more selective on banks and<br />

are cautious on consumption-related names. The government’s<br />

2006 GDP target is 6% and the recent deceleration of GFP growth<br />

from 5.2% in 2Q05 to 4.1% in 3Q05 is of a concern. However,<br />

so long as overseas foreign workers’ remittance remains strong<br />

and the budget balance continues to improve, market is expected<br />

to remain resilient.<br />

MARKET REVIEW<br />

For the half year ended 31 December 2005, the fund gained 9.18%<br />

(bid-bid), underperforming the benchmark MSCI Far East ex-Japan index<br />

which rose 13.65%.<br />

Equity markets in Far East ex-Japan did well in 2005, despite being rocked<br />

by several catastrophes including the tsunami, Bali bombing and the Pakistan<br />

earthquake. The benchmark MSCI Far East ex-Japan index chalked up a total<br />

SGD return of 24% for the year. In particular, strong liquidity inflows led to<br />

the significant outperformance in Korea against the regional index. On the<br />

other hand, Taiwan, Malaysia and Thailand continued its underperformance of<br />

the past 2 years, dogged by uncertain policies and depressed investor sentiment.<br />

Despite having to deal with the plunging Rupiah and fuel price hikes, MSCI<br />

Indonesia index rose 18% in SGD terms while China posted a strong 22%<br />

return for the whole year. 2005 was also a record year for equity issuance,<br />

dominated by China, raising more than US$25b with large scale deals coming<br />

from the bank and insurance sectors. At a sector level, Energy, Tech and<br />

Healthcare outperformed, while Telecoms and Utilities lagged.<br />

Over the course of 2005, fears of rising inflation was a prevalent<br />

theme across the region, with rates being adjusted substantially in Indonesia,<br />

Hong Kong, Thailand and Singapore. Most currencies depreciated against<br />

the US dollar, especially the Indonesian Rupiah and the Thai baht. 2005 also<br />

saw widespread strength among commodity prices, supported by significantly<br />

higher prices of energy, precious metals and base metals. This strength is<br />

mainly driven by robust Chinese growth, low inventories, on-going supply<br />

bottlenecks and supply disruptions.<br />

The fund’s performance was dragged down largely by the cautious<br />

positioning taken at the start of the reporting period. The underweight in Korea,<br />

coupled with the significant allocation taken in the defensive markets of Singapore<br />

and Malaysia detracted from performance as MSCI Korea rose 61% while MSCI<br />

Singapore and MSCI Malaysia gained only 16% and 4% respectively.<br />

MARKET OUTLOOK AND STRATEGY<br />

We expect regional equity markets to continue its outperformance<br />

relative to the world in 2006, given the more attractive valuations and<br />

better economic growth. The region is trading at 13.5x PER06, compared<br />

to the 15.8x globally. Rising interest rates and high oil and commodities<br />

prices are the key risks in 2006. From the recent FOMC minutes, the<br />

likelihood of rates peaking appears evident and we believe that this will be<br />

a catalyst for Asian markets to rally.<br />

Liquidity flows into the region will therefore continue to drive the<br />

market. Korea’s Kospi jumped a massive 54% in KRW terms in 2005 on<br />

the back of strong domestic liquidity due to rising popularity of monthly<br />

installment funds and steady money inflow into equity funds. We expect<br />

such strong liquidity flows to continue. This, coupled with the recovery in<br />

the domestic economy and attractive valuations, forms the basis of our<br />

positive view on Korea. We turned neutral on Taiwan recently. We believe<br />

that a major risk of the market remains in technology stocks, but the high<br />

dividend yield will lend support to the market.<br />

In Singapore, we favour domestic-oriented stocks which have an attractive<br />

risk-reward profile with stable cashflow and high dividend yield. The property<br />

sector could return to the limelight from the integrated resorts bidding newsflow<br />

and recovering physical market, though we may likely see REITs getting off to<br />

a tough start in 2006. Although the Malaysian market’s underperformance has<br />

pushed valuations to attractive levels, we believe that consensus 2006 earnings<br />

are still too optimistic and corporates in general lack pricing power. The GLC<br />

restructuring theme would continue to feature in terms of newsflow, but this<br />

is a long-term structural change story. We would underweight Malaysia. In the<br />

smaller markets of Thailand, Indonesia and Philippines, we prefer Thailand due<br />

to the improvement on the macroeconomic front.<br />

MARKET REVIEW<br />

For the half year ended 31 December 2005, the fund gained 6.27%<br />

(bid-bid), underperforming the MSCI Singapore Free index which rose<br />

7.26%. The Singapore market posted gains of 16.5% for the year, led by<br />

the property sector (38%), hotels (26%) and conglomerates (24%). In<br />

contrast, electronics, the worst performing sector fell 23% for the year.<br />

The government’s decision to proceed with the tender for two<br />

integrated resorts lifted the property sector. The move lifted hope that<br />

the downtown landscape could see a major transformation, prompting<br />

a wave of hectic activities among prime residential properties and office<br />

space. Further easing of borrowing restrictions for residential property<br />

purchases in July provided sustained momentum for property stocks.<br />

Offshore companies were sought after as order flow momentum<br />

accelerated, resulting in a record number of order books for Singapore<br />

shipyards. Investors were of the view that the sector was at the beginning<br />

of a strong up-cycle due to ageing rigs and higher demand for rigs<br />

capable of operation in the deeper seas. Banks underperformed the<br />

market, owing to challenging operating environment such as flattening<br />

yield curve and anaemic loans growth.<br />

During the year, we positioned the portfolio in large cap stocks,<br />

i.e. selective conglomerates and telecom stocks that could ride on the<br />

capital management and asset divestment themes. Banks have benefited<br />

from the reflation angle as interest rates rose. We have also trimmed<br />

the outperforming oil and gas stocks.<br />

We are of the view that continuing GDP upgrades for Singapore<br />

could be sustained into 2006. The economic growth momentum picked<br />

up pace throughout 2005, supported by improved domestic confidence<br />

and strong job creation. The rise in the stock market was led by property<br />

and offshore marine sectors.<br />

MARKET OUTLOOK<br />

The economic growth prospect for the region looks bright, with<br />

real GDP growth forecasts ahead of 5%. With expectations of rates<br />

peaking in the US, interest rates in the ASEAN should peak as well.<br />

ASEAN stock markets should perform well, after a year of lacklustre<br />

performance vis-à-vis its North Asian neighbours.<br />

With an average forecast of about 4-5% growth in Singapore, we<br />

expect strong earnings from the banking, property, industrial and the<br />

technology sectors in 2006, which will underpin the resilience of the<br />

stock prices in these sectors. In addition, the Singapore market is still<br />

inexpensive at 14x prospective P/E, below 15-year average of 17x.<br />

In Singapore, we continue to favour restructuring plays that have<br />

significantly stronger balance sheets, improved ROE and the capability<br />

to return cash to shareholders. Stock selection will become more<br />

important as we look for companies which are unlocking values in<br />

their balance sheet. We continue to see upside in the property sector<br />

and selective REITs as we position for the end of the rate tightening<br />

cycle. Asset reflation is likely to continue and we stay weighted in<br />

property companies, with the likelihood of adding weighting to banks<br />

later in the year. We overweight conglomerates and remain selective<br />

on telecom and technology-related stocks.<br />

The theme of active capital management is consistent across<br />

Singapore Inc especially with those linked to Temasek Holdings. To<br />

date, Temasek linked companies that have returned surpluses to<br />

shareholders include ST Engineering, SembCorp Logistics, Keppel Corp<br />

and SembCorp Industries. Non Temasek companies who have embarked<br />

on major capital management exercises include Fraser and Neave,<br />

SGX, Jardine Cycle and Carriage, OCBC and Mobile One.<br />

MARKET REVIEW*<br />

The Schroder Pan Asia Fund rose 24.4% over the period<br />

from 31 Dec 2004 to 31 Dec 2005, outperforming its benchmark<br />

MSCI AC Asia Pacific Index return of 23.3% over the same period # .<br />

The positive performance can be attributed to the Fund ’s<br />

country allocation calls by overweighting Korea, as well as good<br />

stock calls in Australia and Taiwan.<br />

Asian ex-Japan markets enjoyed relatively mixed performance<br />

in 2005, with some seeing exceptionally strong returns, while<br />

others were relatively weak. Korea and India were the best<br />

performing markets in the region. India saw strong performance<br />

on continued good domestic growth. Korea was seen as a rerating<br />

story, with valuations pushed up as companies benefited<br />

from strength in China, improved corporate governance and high<br />

domestic liquidity inflows. Weaker markets were mainly those<br />

aligned with the US, particularly with the technology sector.<br />

Japanese equities also performed well. Larger, global stocks<br />

reaped the benefits of long-term restructuring programmes,<br />

sustained demand from the US and more positive exchange rates.<br />

However, the main beneficiaries of the rally were stocks linked to<br />

oil and commodity trading and the large banks favoured as proxies<br />

to the economy by foreign investors. The rally was set off when<br />

Prime Minister Kuizumo called a snap election on privatisation of<br />

the Post Office, with a landslide victory widely seen as an<br />

unambiguous mandate for economic reform.<br />

#Source: Standard & Poor’s, SGD, bid-to-bid, net dividends reinvested.<br />

MARKET OUTLOOK*<br />

Although we remain committed to the long-term<br />

outperformance of Asian ex-Japan equity markets, the impressive<br />

rally among the key Asian markets in the past year leads us to a<br />

more cautious stance for 2006. Higher oil prices and slower US<br />

growth are likely to be negative, in that many Asian economies are<br />

net oil importers and for all of them, whether directly or indirectly,<br />

the US economy is critical. A decline in growth in Chinese capital<br />

investment is also likely.<br />

We are also becoming slightly cautious on Japan, given the<br />

strength of the rally over the past 12 to 18 months. We feel that<br />

much of the good news has been priced in, and any softening in<br />

demand from China and the US may raise concerns about the<br />

extent to which the domestic economic recovery can be sustained.<br />

Nevertheless, we feel that the market is still good value and<br />

nowhere in sight of its historical highs, a loose monetary policy<br />

is all but certain to remain in place, and there is clearly an air of<br />

rising confidence.<br />

MARKET REVIEW<br />

For the half year ended 31 Dec 2005, the fund rose 1.26%<br />

(bid-bid), outperforming the 1 Month Sing dollar interbank rate,<br />

which rose 1.03%.<br />

For the period under review, the three-month interbank rate<br />

experienced sharp volatility and rose from 1.50% at the beginning of<br />

2005 to 3.25% at the end of Dec 2005. A number of factors underpinned<br />

the firmer short-term rates, including the reaffirmation of continued<br />

tightening stance by global central banks, continued weakness in the<br />

SGD trade-weighted nominal effective exchange rate (S$NEER),<br />

hedging by banks and corporate and unwinding of speculative positions.<br />

The yield curve flattened as the rise in long-term bond yields lagged<br />

the short-term rates. The fund outperformed its benchmark slightly<br />

over this period, as it coped with the rapidly rising interest rate<br />

environment. Duration strategy was kept short as we anticipated the<br />

SGD short-term interest rates to track the US Federal Fund rates<br />

higher. The fund’s performance benefited from its strategy of preference<br />

for corporate bonds over government bonds, where the former<br />

provided better yield pick-up over the short-term rates.<br />

For the year ended Dec 2005, the Singapore 3Q GDP came<br />

in at a strong 7% YOY, bringing growth in Q1-Q3 to 5.1%, an<br />

upward revision from the earlier advance estimates of 4.7%. The<br />

official 2005 GDP forecast was raised to 5% from 3.5-4.5%. October<br />

industrial production further surprised on the upside, rising 17.6%<br />

YOY. More importantly, we had a strong rebound in electronics<br />

production as demand picked up ahead of the festive season.<br />

Growth in other clusters generally accelerated as well. The strong<br />

pick-up in manufacturing production in the last 3 months suggests<br />

full year growth may again exceed expectations.<br />

MARKET OUTLOOK<br />

On interest rate outlook, we expect short-term SGD interest<br />

rates to track the measured pace of the Federal Reserve’s monetary<br />

tightening policy, albeit to a lesser magnitude given that demand<br />

for short-dated debt instruments would remain strong and supply<br />

in the market remain modest. We think Fed policymakers would<br />

consider a pause in the tightening cycle soon as core inflation<br />

remains benign, housing data comes off the peak and consumption<br />

cools off. The Monetary Authority of Singapore is likely to maintain<br />

the existing gradual SGD appreciation stance to balance inflationary<br />

pressures and export growth.<br />

We expect yields to peak at a lower level than historical<br />

benchmarks would suggest. Timing the peak will be difficult, and<br />

the fund’s strategy would be to maintain short duration and look<br />

to progressively lengthen duration as yields creep up. We continue<br />

to prefer corporate bonds to government bonds while keeping<br />

a good portfolio mixture of short-dated variable-rate notes and<br />

slightly longer-dated debt instruments. We will continue to seek<br />

out and select credits with strong balance sheets, coupled with<br />

stable earnings growth outlook.<br />

The risk to our view is the stronger than expected economic<br />

growth. Advance estimates show 4Q GDP at 7.7% YOY, 9.7% QOQ<br />

and full year GDP at 5.7%. If the economic growth momentum<br />

continues to accelerate, led by domestic demand with the improved<br />

sentiments in the property market and general increase in wages,<br />

MAS may shift to a more aggressive appreciation stance for the<br />

S$NEER. This would imply that short end rates stay firm for longer<br />

and will translate to higher rates across the curve.<br />

Benchmark: Lehman Global Aggregate Bond Index 50% Hedged into SGD<br />

For Top 10 Investments refer to page 86.<br />

MARKET REVIEW<br />

Developed global bonds posted mediocre returns in 2005.<br />

The Lehman Global Aggregate hedged in USD returned 4.28%,<br />

while a stronger dollar pushed the unhedged index into negative<br />

territory (-4.48%). The main themes for fixed income in 2005 were<br />

central bank tightening, flatter curves, a stronger dollar, and<br />

continued commodity strength. All of which, surprisingly, did not<br />

lead to higher long-term yields. 30-year rates for the G3 were all<br />

lower from a year earlier. Spread sectors underperformed treasuries<br />

for the first time in three years as investors risk appetite waned.<br />

Negative headlines in the US corporate sector and the dismal<br />

outlook for the US auto sector weighed on corporate spreads<br />

while reduced demand, fear of extension, and a flatter curve all<br />

weighed on the mortgage sector. The only major USD fixed<br />

income asset class to outperform treasuries in 2005 was Emerging<br />

Market bonds as the increase in reserves and the ratings uptrend<br />

continued. US equities provided disappointing returns while the<br />

global arena, most notably emerging economies, provided a winning<br />

atmosphere for investors.<br />

The global economy continued to grow at a strong pace<br />

while inflation remained relatively well contained. Higher energy<br />

prices seemed to have a minimal impact to core inflation rates<br />

and unit labor costs in developed economies were suppressed by<br />

cheap wages abroad. Globalization, marked by both reserve growth<br />

and labor outsourcing, continued to provide a deflationary force<br />

in the market. US consumption and China’s capital expenditure<br />

remained the driving forces in the global aggregate demand function<br />

while most developing economies savings rates increased at a<br />

healthy pace. The US current account deficit continues to swell<br />

and sits near 7% of GDP.<br />

While the UK, Australia, and the US seem to be ahead in<br />

the cycle: Europe, Japan, and Canada appear to be behind in the<br />

cycle. The Fed may be nearing the end of its rate hikes as a levered<br />

consumer and a slowing housing market seem to be responding<br />

to the 3.25% increase in the Fed <strong>Funds</strong> rate. The ECB decided to<br />

raise rates towards the end of the year due to inflationary concerns,<br />

but anemic growth prospects and high unemployment continue<br />

to weigh on the outlook for the economy. The BoJ has become<br />

increasingly hawkish as positive inflation is coming back into the<br />

picture for the first time in almost 10 years.<br />

The US Dollar ignored the warning signals from the global<br />

imbalances and provided a shock to most economists as interest<br />

rate differentials and the supply of savings drove the dollar higher<br />

verses all major currencies except the CAD, which was driven by<br />

the strength in commodities.<br />

U.S. and Dollar Bloc<br />

The US bond market returned 2.43% with treasuries leading<br />

the way. The significant curve flattening meant that longer dated<br />

bonds well outperformed shorter dated securities, even on a<br />

duration-adjusted basis. Investment grade corporates and mortgages<br />

underperformed while emerging market bonds posted another<br />

year of solid returns. EMBIG spreads are now at an all time tight<br />

of 237 bps over treasuries while investment grade corporates<br />

finished the year at 90 bps over treasuries.<br />

Hedged to dollars, Canada outperformed all other dollar<br />

bloc countries posting a return of 6.89%, followed by Australia<br />

(3.55%) and New Zealand (3.43%). Currencies were mixed as the<br />

CAD appreciated to the dollar while Australia and New Zealand<br />

fell victim to the green back. The overnight lending rates in Canada<br />

and New Zealand were raised by 75 bps over the year lagging the<br />

US. Australia seemed to lead the cycle in the raising rates for the<br />

final time in March. A slowing housing market and a relatively<br />

inactive consumer helped keep the RBA on hold. The cash rate<br />

in Australia sits at 5.5%<br />

Euroland and the U.K.<br />

European bonds outperformed the US when hedged into<br />

dollars. Belgium, Ireland, and the Netherlands lead the way. The<br />

worst performer in the EU was Luxemburg returning only 1.53%<br />

over the year. The structural inefficiencies in the labor market<br />

continued to cast a negative shadow on the market’s outlook for<br />

growth in Europe, causing yields to fall in the longer end of the<br />

curve. A rate hike by the ECB towards the end of the year caused<br />

the front end to sell off and the curve to flatten.<br />

UK gilts continued to perform well in 2005 on the BoE’s rate<br />

cut and the markets speculation for more. The slowing housing<br />

market drove reduced consumption and a slowing economy. The<br />

market continued to seesaw on their expectations for policy<br />

decisions, but the long end continued to be driven by asset-liability<br />

regulation causing the curve to flatten.<br />

Japan<br />

JGB’s had a strong first half, only to sell-off in the later half<br />

of 2005. Driven by an increase in domestic demand and prospects<br />

for positive inflation, risk premiums were built back into the front<br />

end of the yield curve. Uncertainty regarding the end of the 0%<br />

interest rate policy caused investors to question the appropriate<br />

term premium for JGB’s. The five-year was the worst performer<br />

selling off by 25bps over the year. The weaker JPY added confidence<br />

to the markets perception of Japan’s recovery and only added an<br />

increase in exports to higher consumption. The Nikkei 225 had<br />

a strong year (+40%) with the banking sector leading the way.<br />

MARKET OUTLOOK<br />

The U.S. economy will slow relative to the rest of the world,<br />

reflecting global monetary policies that are not synchronized. The<br />

Federal Reserve is nearing the end of its tightening cycle while central<br />

banks outside the U.S., such as the European Central Bank, have only<br />

begun to tighten. A decelerating U.S. economy will limit how fast<br />

other countries can grow because expansion outside the U.S. is<br />

partially dependent on U.S. demand. Key elements of the outlook are:<br />

• As Housing Decelerates … Housing gains have contributed<br />

significantly to U.S. growth via wealth effects on consumers, cashout<br />

refinancings, home equity loans and job growth in real estaterelated<br />

industries. Higher mortgage rates over recent months and<br />

continued pressure on real wages and incomes will crimp housing<br />

affordability in 2006, taking the froth out of the property market.<br />

• … So Will Consumer Spending – As housing cools, consumer<br />

spending will grow more in line with income, thereby reducing<br />

U.S. growth. A potential offset to the negative effect of weaker<br />

consumption is corporate investment, which has been robust for<br />

the last several years. However, investment has recently begun to<br />

grow more slowly as capacity utilization has risen. PIMCO expects<br />

much of U.S. investment to continue to occur abroad in rapidly<br />

growing markets such as China.<br />

• The Fed Is Nearly Done – The U.S. central bank will stop at<br />

a federal funds rate of 4.5 percent early next year as the soaring<br />

property market cools off and growth moderates. Yields on 1-5<br />

year Treasuries could fall by as much as 100 basis points over the<br />

next year as investors anticipate that the Federal Reserve will<br />

move toward easing later in 2006.<br />

• Europe Unlikely To Pick Up – Europe will get no help on the<br />

policy front. The ECB is preoccupied with asset price inflation even<br />

as core inflation remains subdued. Meanwhile, prospects for fiscal<br />

tightening in Germany, the region’s biggest economy, bode ill for<br />

any substantial increase in domestic consumption. Domestic demand<br />

throughout Europe is weak because real wages remain stagnant.<br />

• Japan’s Recovery to Moderate – Gains in consumption<br />

followed Japan’s export and investment-led recovery in 2003, but<br />

now this growth is softening as higher energy prices squeeze wages.<br />

Longer-term prospects for capital spending in Japan may be negatively<br />

affected by an expected slowdown in corporate profits.<br />

• Emerging Markets Not Yet a Factor – Inflation will remain<br />

well contained. Commodity prices are moderating after their post-<br />

Katrina bounce, and there has been relatively little pass-through<br />

of higher energy prices into core U.S. inflation. More importantly,<br />

the long-run economic trend of an expanding global labor supply<br />

(in China, India and Brazil, for example) will put downward pressure<br />

on the price of labor, making a wage-induced boost in inflation<br />

highly unlikely.<br />

• Benign Inflation – Inflation will remain well contained.<br />

Commodity prices are moderating after their post-Katrina bounce,<br />

and there has been relatively little pass-through of higher energy<br />

prices into core U.S. inflation. More importantly, the long-run<br />

economic trend of an expanding global labor supply (in China,<br />

India and Brazil, for example) will put downward pressure on the<br />

price of labor, making a wage-induced boost in inflation highly<br />

unlikely.<br />

FUND OBJECTIVE & INVESTMENT STRATEGY<br />

The Fund objective is to achieve an attractive return by<br />

investing in single A and above quality investment grade bonds of<br />

Singapore and major bonds markets such as the G7 countries and<br />

Australia and New Zealand. The G7 countries are Canada, France,<br />

Germany, Italy, Japan, UK and US.<br />

MARKET REVIEW*<br />

Bond yields in the US were higher over the year on the back<br />

of healthy growth out of the US and the Federal Reserve's move<br />

to raise Fed funds rates from 2.25% to 4.25%, a 200bp increase<br />

in rates. US 10 and 2-year yields were 17bp and 134bp higher<br />

respectively.<br />

In Singapore, yields were higher, in line with the US, 10 and<br />

2-year yields were 63bp and 111bp higher over the period.<br />

Corporate bonds underperformed as swap rates rose more than<br />

government bond yields.<br />

The Fund gave positive returns over the period. The absolute<br />

increase in yields negatively impacted the Fund. However, active<br />

management of interest rate exposure and higher yielding securities<br />

in the Fund added value to the Fund.<br />

MARKET OUTLOOK*<br />

We believe that growth in the US in 2006 is expected to be<br />

healthy. Monetary conditions in the US are close to neutral and<br />

we look for Fed funds to be raised to 4.5% in January 2006. Any<br />

further hikes will be dependent on economic data going forward.<br />

In our opinion, bonds in the US, especially the longer dated<br />

bonds, are over-valued and we look for yields to trend higher.<br />

Yields in Singapore are likely to move in line but will probably<br />

outperform the US.<br />

We are relatively defensive in interest rate positioning given<br />

the expected volatility in the markets and that the balance of risk<br />

is for rates to rise further. We will continue to focus on high<br />

quality corporate bonds to enhance the yield.<br />

Footnotes:<br />

1. Policyholders will have to hold their investments in the <strong><strong>Great</strong>Link</strong> Choice for the entire policy term of 5 years before they may benefit from the 100% capital protection. If policyholders realise their units before the fund matures, the<br />

realisation of units will be based on the prevailing unit price which can vary according to market fluctuations and may be less than the capital protected amount.<br />

The 100% capital protection and the payouts are provided for by debt securities and derivative transactions employed as part of the investment approach of the funds and not backed by a guarantee and is subject to issuer<br />

risk. Policyholders may lose part or all of their investment in the funds in the event there is a downgrade of the debt securities, default by the issuers of the debt securities, a default of the swap counterparty to the derivative<br />

transactions, an early redemption of the note, or credit events/trading actions resulting in cumulative losses that exceed the initial loss protection level (as defined in the portfolio credit default swap agreement). As such, no guarantee<br />

is given that policyholders will receive the capital protected value at maturity or the payouts at each policy anniversary.<br />

2. The fees and charges payable by <strong><strong>Great</strong>Link</strong> Choice have been deducted upfront. No refund will be made to policyholders who realise their units before the funds mature. The management fee will not affect the fund’s capital<br />

protection at maturity or coupon payment.<br />

3. During the policy term of the fund, the fund manager may, where the fund manager considers it to be in the interest of policyholders, substitute existing reference entities with new reference entities (each such substitution, a<br />

“replacement”). Replacements may give rise to trading losses or trading gains, which shall be adjusted against the loss protection level.<br />

goods and services used to support the investment decision making process were received. Notwithstanding<br />

this, the Managers may use those goods and services received under the Investment Manager's soft<br />

dollar arrangements. The soft commission arrangements were entered into on the basis that the<br />

execution of transactions on behalf of the Fund will be consistent with best execution standards and<br />

goods and services received include data and quotation services, specialist industry, company and<br />

services do not include travel, accommodations, entertainment, general administrative goods or services,<br />

general office equipment or premises, membership fees, employees' salaries or direct money payments.<br />

of the Trust and the Managers shall ensure at all times that the transactions are executed at the best<br />

available terms taking into account the relevant market at the time for transactions of the kind and<br />

size concerned. The Managers shall not enter into unnecessary trades in order to qualify for such soft<br />

NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS<br />

2. Significant Accounting Policies<br />

a. Basis of accounting<br />

The financial statements are expressed in Singapore dollars, and are prepared in accordance<br />

with the historical cost convention, except for investments and derivatives which are<br />

carried at fair value.<br />

b. Recognition of income and expenses<br />

Dividend income is recognised when the shareholders' right to receive payment is<br />

established. Interest income is accrued on a day-to-day basis.<br />

Expenses are recognised on an accrual basis.<br />

c. Investments<br />

All purchases of investments are recognised on their trade dates, i.e., the date the<br />

commitment exists to purchase the investments. The investments are initially recorded<br />

at cost, being the fair value of the consideration given and including acquisition charges<br />

associated with the investments. After initial recognition, the unrealised gains or losses<br />

on remeasurement to fair value are taken to the capital account. Fair value is determined<br />

by using open market valuation at the year-end date. The bid price has been adopted for<br />

all investments except for quoted equity investments. For equity investments traded on<br />

exchanges, fair value is derived from the last traded price on the respective exchange.<br />

d. Realised gains/losses from sale of investments<br />

All sales of investments are recognised on their trade dates i.e., the date the fund commits<br />

to sell the investments.<br />

Realised gains/losses from sale of investments are taken to the Capital Account.<br />

e. Foreign currency transactions<br />

Foreign currency transactions are translated into Singapore dollars at exchange rates<br />

prevailing at the transaction dates and foreign currency monetary assets and liabilities are<br />

translated at the approximate rates ruling at the period end. Differences on exchange are<br />

included in the Capital Account.<br />

f. Derivative financial instruments<br />

All derivatives including embedded derivatives are carried at fair value. All fair value<br />

changes on derivatives are taken to the Capital Account. Fair value of derivatives is<br />

determined by using the average of two or three indicative bid prices obtained from<br />

intermediaries and brokers.<br />
