Access to a wide range of investment opportunitiesEach economic phase delivers different investment opportunities

� Depending on the phase of the economic

cycle we are in, different asset classes will

outperform

� We define the economic cycle with reference

to the position of the US economy (growth

and output gap) relative to their long-term

trend

� In some cycles, alternatives perform better

than traditional asset classes i.e. equities

and bonds

� We need to be able to access a wide range

of asset classes including alternatives in

order to generate returns in all phases of the

economy cycle

We are here now

Access to A Spectrum of Asset ClassesFlexible: broadly diversified to achieve steady wealth accumulation over time

Sovereigns

Global bond exposure serves to cushion volatility of equity exposures whilst providing steady yield for the portfolio

Access to a wide range of asset classes and investment strategies

enables portfolio to generate returns over cycles rather than only

during bull markets

Emerging Market Bonds

Exposure to bonds and currency in less efficient emerging markets generally issued by the government

Aims to generate positive returns

over a 12 month rolling period and is lowly correlated to other assets

Commodities

Commodities tend to display low correlation to traditional asset classes. Uncertainty, a curse for equity investors, can often be ofbenefit to commodity investors.

Asian Bonds

Exposure to Asian bonds and currencies

Aims not to lose value on a rolling 12 month basis whilst generating strong returns

Property Securities/REITs

Shares of listed property companies that invest in a diverse range of properties such as offices, hotels, industrial sites and residential properties.

“Real assets” which can potentially provide attractive returns and has a low correlation

between regional returns.

Global Inflation Linked Bonds

Invests in high quality inflation linked bonds issued by governments or their agencies; Offers protection from the effects of rising

inflation

Global Credit

Invests primarily in investment grade corporate bonds. This asset can provide higher level of yield as compared to government bonds, cash or equities

Currencies

Currencies are managed actively to generate

additional returns for the portfolio where we believe opportunities exist.

Equities

Exposures to Global, Asia, Emerging Markets and Japan equities

Provide portfolio with the potential of upside returns.

Time-Sensitive Portfolio to De-risk as Retirement Age Approaches

Dynamic alignment of risk level to the lifecycle stage and market conditions

Definition of Risk

� Measurement of Risk is not only at

Equity level but: also as credit risk,

commodity risk, property risk.

� Actual asset allocation will depend

on the attractiveness of each asset

class in that investment cycle.

� Starting point is not always 100%

equity. This introduces too much

risk and increases the chance an

investor does not have sufficient

money to fund retirement.

Diversification benefits can disappear Diversification benefits can leave just when you need them most

� Correlations measure the degree of diversification benefits

� In ‘good times’ correlation can be sufficiently low to achieve diversification

� In ‘good times’ you don’t need diversification as much

� In ‘bad times’ correlations can rise as asset classes are driven by fear

� Diversification benefits can decline just when they are needed most

Rolling asset class correlations

This document is published for the information and generation circulation of distributors of Schroder funds only and does not have any regard to the specific investment objective, financial situation and the particular needs of any specific person who may receive this document. Investors may wish to seek advice from a financial advisor before purchasing units of any fund. In the event that the investor chooses not to seek advice from a financial advisor, he should consider whether the fund in question is suitable for him.

Past performance and any forecast are not necessarily indicative of the future or likely performance of any fund. Past performance of manager is not necessarily indicative of its future performance. The value of units in the Fund, and the income accruing to the units, if any, from the Fund, may fall as well as rise. A copy of the prospectus is available and can be obtained from Schroder Investment Management (Singapore) Ltd or its distributors. Investors should read the prospectus before deciding to subscribe for or purchase units in the fund. Funds may carry a sales charge of up to 5%.

Distributions of 2 cents per unit will be declared semi annually on 15 January and 15 July. The distributions are not guaranteed and might be changed in the event of extreme market conditions or at the Manager’s discretion in accordance with the Trust Deed.

The Central Provident Fund (“CPF”) interest rate for the Ordinary Account (“OA”) is based on the 12-month fixed deposit and month-end savings rates of the major local banks. Under the CPF Act, the CPF Board pays a minimum interest of 2.5% per annum when this interest formula yields a lower rate. From 1 Jan 2008, the new interest rate for the Special, Medisave and Retirement Accounts (“SMRA”) will be pegged to the yield of 10-year Singapore Government Securities plus 1%. For 2011, the minimum interest rate for the SMRA will be 4.0% per annum. After 31 December 2011, the 2.5% per annum minimum interest rate, as prescribed by the CPF Act, will apply to the SMRA. In addition, the CPF Board will pay an extra interest rate of 1% per annum on the first $60,000 of a CPF member’s combined balances, including up to $20,000 in the OA. The first $20,000 in the Ordinary Account and the first $40,000 in the Special Account will not be allowed to be invested under the CPF Investment Scheme (“CPFIS”). Investors should note that the applicable interest rates for each of the CPF accounts may be varied by the CPF Board from time to time.
