Impact of Regulation

                                           social benefits tend to be disrupted

                          Policymakers seek to direct human and financial capital
                             to innovation—innovative sectors tend to benefit

                                      China faces big challenges and may need
                                        the private sector to help solve them

Notes and Disclosures
This section of this presentation contains information important to a complete understanding of the material presented. Please review it carefully.
Artisan Partners Limited Partnership (APLP) is an investment adviser registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Artisan Partners UK LLP (APUK) is authorized and regulated by the Financial Conduct
Authority and is a registered investment adviser with the SEC. APEL Financial Distribution Services Limited (AP Europe) is authorized and regulated by the Central Bank of Ireland. APLP, APUK and AP Europe are collectively,

Form ADV: Additional information about APLP or APUK, the firms, its partners, ownership, investment strategies, fees and expenses and policies is contained in each firm’s respective Form ADV. Each firm will supply a copy of

Artisan China Post-Venture Strategy Investment Risks: Current and future portfolio holdings are subject to risk. International investments involve special risks, including currency fluctuation, lower liquidity, different accounting
methods and economic and political systems, and higher transaction costs. These risks typically are greater in emerging markets. Securities of small- and medium-sized companies tend to have a shorter history of
operations, be more volatile and less liquid and may have underperformed securities of large companies during some periods. Growth securities may underperform other asset types during a given period. A portfolio
focused on greater China will be closely tied to market, currency, economic, political, environmental, or regulatory conditions and developments in the region, and may fluctuate more than the returns of a more
geographically diversified portfolio. Investments will rise and fall with market fluctuations and investor capital is at risk.
