1975, we understand the requirements of these organizations, specifically their focus on capital

preservation, liquidity and their need to meet a certain earnings return. We appreciate the responsibility central banks have to manage

their currency reserves and how the current low rate environment is presenting challenges in

doing so. Our knowledge of their needs, together with the fact that we have several former

central bankers on staff, positions BNP Paribas Investment Partners well to meet the ever

evolving opportunities and challenges these organizations face.Johanna Lasker,

Head of Central Banks and Official Institutions, BNP Paribas
