Glossary

NAV (Cum Income) The value of investments and cash, including

current year revenue, less liabilities (prior charges such as

loans, debenture stock and preference shares at fair value).

NAV (Ex Income)

The value of investments and cash, excluding

current year revenue, less liabilities (prior charges such as

loans, debenture stock and preference shares at fair value).

Share price Closing mid-market share price at month end.

Discount/premium

The amount by which the price per share of

an investment trust is either lower (at a discount) or higher

(at a premium) than the net asset value per share (cum

income), expressed as a percentage of the net asset value

per share.

Total assets

Cum Income NAV multiplied by the number of

shares, plus prior charges at fair value.

Net assets

Total assets minus any liabilities such as bank loans

or creditors.

Market capitalisation

Month end closing mid-market share price

multiplied by the number of shares outstanding at month

end.

Share price total return

The theoretical total return to the investor

assuming that all dividends received were reinvested in the

shares of the company at the time the shares were quoted

ex-dividend. Transaction costs are not taken into account.

Net asset value total return

The theoretical total return on

shareholders' funds per share reflecting the change in Net

Asset Value (NAV) assuming that dividends paid to

shareholders were reinvested at NAV at the time the shares

were quoted ex-dividend. A way of measuring investment

management performance of investment trusts which is not

affected by movements in discounts/premiums.

Yield Calculated by dividing the current financial year's

dividends per share (this will include prospective dividends)

by the current price per share, then multiplying by 100 to

arrive at a percentage figure.

Ongoing charges The total expenses for the financial year

(excluding performance fee), divided by the average daily

net assets, multiplied by 100.

Gearing The effect of borrowing money for investment

purposes (financial gearing). The amount a company can

“gear” is the amount it can borrow in order to invest. Gearing

is used in the expectation that the returns on the investments

bought will exceed the costs of the borrowings that funded

the purchase. This Company can also use synthetic gearing

through derivatives and foreign exchange hedging and/or

other non-fully funded instruments or techniques.

Leverage The Trust’s leverage is the sum of financial gearing

and synthetic gearing. Details of the Trust’s leverage limits

can be found in both the Key Investor Information Document

and Annual Report. Where a trust utilises leverage, the

profits and losses incurred by the trust can be greater than

those of a trust that does not use leverage.

Net cash

A company’s net exposure to cash/cash equivalents

expressed as a percentage of shareholders’ funds, after any

offset against its gearing. This is only shown for companies

that have gearing in place.

Net gearing

A company’s total assets (less cash/cash

equivalents) divided by shareholders’ funds expressed as a

percentage.

Risk rating

The key measure used to assess risk is volatility of

returns, using historic net asset value (NAV) performance of

the trust over 1 and 3 years. In this instance volatility

measures how much a trust’s NAV fluctuates over time in

relation to the UK Equity market. The higher a volatility figure,

the more the NAV has fluctuated (both up and down) over

time. Please note that risk categorisations are indicative and

based principally on historic data and should not be solely

relied upon when making investment decisions.

Specific risks

• Most of the investments in this portfolio are not made in Sterling, so exchange rates could affect the value and income

from your investment.

• Asian focused portfolios are exposed to Emerging Markets which tend to be less stable than more established markets

and can be affected by local political and economic conditions, reliability of trading systems, buying and selling practices

and financial reporting standards.

• If a fund is a specialist country-specific or geographic regional fund, the investment carries greater risk than a more

internationally diversified portfolio.

•This portfolio allows the manager to use options for revenue enhancement purposes. Options can be volatile and may result

in a capital loss.
