Market and Fund Overview
Global markets fell across the board over the month of May as signs of a slowdown in global economic growth and concerns
that the Europe’s debt crisis is worsening weighed heavily on investor sentiment. The dire sovereign debt situation in Greece
dominated headlines during the month as the country’s struggle to repay its debt prompted speculation that a potential
restructuring of Greek debt would be forthcoming. Global markets were also weighed down by the plunge in commodity prices
on overheating concerns although this has also helped ease inflation concern and the pressure on central banks to raise rates .
Meanwhile, the promise of a new bailout plan for Greece sent a temporary relief to global markets on the last week of May.
Against this backdrop, the MSCI World declined 2% in USD terms over the month whilst the MSCI Asia ex Japan fell 1.3%.
Separately, Gold saw a sharp drop over the first week before climbing its way back and ended the month 2% lower than
previous month’s closings. On fixed income, global sovereigns advanced and outperformed the corporate sector as investors
flocked to safe haven assets on the back of reduced risk appetite. Yields of the US 10-year treasuries were pushed down
23bps to the lowest level this year. In Asia, bond markets were mixed with yields in the Philippines moving higher while in
Singapore, yields of 10Y government bond benchmark fell but rose subsequently and ended relatively flat from April’s closing.

The fund fell slightly in May. Main detractors from performance were the holdings in Global equities and Emerging Market
equities as well as EMD as they returned lower over the month. The losses were however mitigated by positive returns
generated from the fixed income assets as well as holdings in Asian equities as the underlying fund defied the broader market
trend to deliver positive returns over the month. The portfolio also gained from its unhedged positions as the USD appreciated
in May and helped support portfolio returns. The fund (bid-bid) underperformed the benchmark in May attributed mainly to the
underperformance in EMD and Global Property but this was mitigated by the outperformance in Asian equities and Gold during
the month. The sustainability of the global recovery is being tested by rising commodity prices, particularly oil and more
recently the disaster in Japan. The earthquake, when added to the unrest in the Middle East, Euro crises and Asian inflation,
increases the risks that have the potential to upset the market balance. Given the growing list of potentially destabilising factors
that could negatively impact markets, we are maintaining our cautious approach to risk assets.

We still favour allocating risk to credit markets. With corporates having aggressively managed costs early in the crisis, balance
sheets are in good health and defaults are falling. Credit spreads have narrowed considerably but still reward investors for risk,
particularly when compared to low cash rates. The forces of private sector de-leveraging and public sector reflation remain in
opposition to each other, generating volatile yet range bound price action in markets. In this environment, we are careful to
diversify the risk across a number of return sources to reduce the impact from any number of surfacing macro issues.
