Investment Risks
All investments carry risks. Policy Owners must be prepared to accept certain degree of risk associated with this Investment. The following are the non-
exhaustive list of risks associated to this fund.
1. Market Risk
      Market risk stems from the fact that there are other economy-wide perils, which threaten all businesses. It is mainly caused by uncertainties in the
      economy, political and social environment.

2.   Liquidity Risk
     Liquidity risk is the risk that the fund invested cannot be readily sold and converted into cash. This may arise when the trading volume is low and/or
     where there is a lack of demand for the security.

3.   Credit Risk
     This refers to the possibility that the issuer of a security will not be able to make timely payments of interest or principal repayment on the maturity
     date. The default may lead to a fall in the value of the funds.

4.   Interest Rate Risk
     The level of interest rates has an impact on the value of investments. Any increase in rates will lead to a fall in the value of securities, thus affecting
     the value of the funds.

5.   Country Risk
     The foreign investment of a fund may be affected by the political & economic conditions of the country which the investments are made.

6.   Currency Risk
     This risk is associated with investments that are denominated in foreign currencies. Fluctuation in foreign exchange rates will have an impact on the
     value of the funds.

Basis of Unit Valuation
1. The assets of every fund are to be valued to determine the value at which units of a particular fund can be liquidated or purchased for investment
    purposes.
2. The unit price of a unit of a fund shall be determined by the Company but in any event shall not be less than the value of fund of the relevant fund (as
    defined below), divided by the number of units of the given fund in issue on the business day before the valuation date, and the result adjusted to the
    nearest one hundredth of a cent.
3. The maximum value of any asset of any fund shall not exceed the following price:
    a) The last transacted market price at which those assets could be purchased or sold on the business day before the valuation date; or
    b) In the case of securities for which market values are not readily available, the price at which, in our Investment Manager’s opinion, the asset
         may have been purchased on the business day before the valuation date;
    plus any expenses which would have been incurred in its acquisition.
4. To ensure fair treatment to all unit holders, the cost of acquiring and disposing of assets is recouped by making a transaction cost adjustment to the
    net asset value per unit.

Exceptional Circumstances
The Company reserves the right to defer the payment of benefits (other than death benefit) under this Policy for a period not exceeding six (6) months
from the date the payment would have been normally effected if not for intervening events such as temporary closure of any Stock Exchange in which the
fund is invested which the Company, in its discretion, may consider exceptional.

Basis of Calculation of Past Performance
The historical performance of the fund is calculated based on the price difference over the period in consideration compared to the older price of the
period in consideration.

Investment Risks
All investments carry risks. Policy Owners must be prepared to accept certain degree of risk associated with this Investment. The following are the non-
exhaustive list of risks associated to this fund.
1. Market Risk
      Market risk stems from the fact that there are other economy-wide perils, which threaten all businesses. It is mainly caused by uncertainties in the
      economy, political and social environment.

2.   Liquidity Risk
     Liquidity risk is the risk that the fund invested cannot be readily sold and converted into cash. This may arise when the trading volume is low and/or
     where there is a lack of demand for the security.
3.   Credit Risk
     This refers to the possibility that the issuer of a security will not be able to make timely payments of interest or principal repayment on the maturity
     date. The default may lead to a fall in the value of the funds.
4.   Interest Rate Risk
     The level of interest rates has an impact on the value of investments. Any increase in rates will lead to a fall in the value of securities, thus affecting
     the value of the funds.

5.   Country Risk
     The foreign investment of a fund may be affected by the political & economic conditions of the country which the investments are made.

6.   Currency Risk
     This risk is associated with investments that are denominated in foreign currencies. Fluctuation in foreign exchange rates will have an impact on the
     value of the funds.
Risk Management
The Company has in place its Authorized Investment Framework which forms part of the Risk Management process. The authority framework will cover
the nature and scope of the investment authority that is exercisable by various parties in managing the Company’s investments. Besides this, sensitivity
and stress testing is conducted to inform the Company’s management the profit & loss profiles of their investments under different pre-defined risk
scenarios and the necessary action to be taken if the potential losses exceed the Company’s risk tolerance level.
Basis of Unit Valuation
1. The assets of every fund are to be valued to determine the value at which units of a particular fund can be liquidated or purchased for investment
    purposes.
2. The unit price of a unit of a fund shall be determined by the Company but in any event shall not be less than the value of fund of the relevant fund (as
    defined below), divided by the number of units of the given fund in issue on the business day before the valuation date, and the result adjusted to the
    nearest one hundredth of a cent.
3. The maximum value of any asset of any fund shall not exceed the following price:
    a) The last transacted market price at which those assets could be purchased or sold on the business day before the valuation date; or
    b) In the case of securities for which market values are not readily available, the price at which, in our Investment Manager’s opinion, the asset
         may have been purchased on the business day before the valuation date;
    plus any expenses which would have been incurred in its acquisition.
4. To ensure fair treatment to all unit holders, the cost of acquiring and disposing of assets is recouped by making a transaction cost adjustment to the
    net asset value per unit.

Exceptional Circumstances

The Company reserves the right to defer the payment of benefits (other than death benefit) under this Policy for a period not exceeding six (6) months
from the date the payment would have been normally effected if not for intervening events such as temporary closure of any Stock Exchange in which the
fund is invested which the Company, in its discretion, may consider exceptional.

Basis of Calculation of Past Performance
The historical performance of the fund is calculated based on the price difference over the period in consideration compared to the older price of the
period in consideration.
                                                                                Unit Pricet − Unit Pricet-1

Investment Risks
All investments carry risks. Policy Owners must be prepared to accept certain degree of risk associated with this Investment. The following are the non-
exhaustive list of risks associated to this fund.
1. Market Risk
      Market risk stems from the fact that there are other economy-wide perils, which threaten all businesses. It is mainly caused by uncertainties in the
      economy, political and social environment.

2.   Liquidity Risk
     Liquidity risk is the risk that the fund invested cannot be readily sold and converted into cash. This may arise when the trading volume is low and/or
     where there is a lack of demand for the security.

3.   Credit Risk
     This refers to the possibility that the issuer of a security will not be able to make timely payments of interest or principal repayment on the maturity
     date. The default may lead to a fall in the value of the funds.

4.   Interest Rate Risk
     The level of interest rates has an impact on the value of investments. Any increase in rates will lead to a fall in the value of securities, thus affecting
     the value of the funds.

Risk Management
The Company has in place its Authorized Investment Framework which forms part of the Risk Management process. The authority framework will cover
the nature and scope of the investment authority that is exercisable by various parties in managing the Company’s investments. Besides this, sensitivity
and stress testing is conducted to inform the Company’s management the profit & loss profiles of their investments under different pre-defined risk
scenarios and the necessary action to be taken if the potential losses exceed the Company’s risk tolerance level.

Basis of Unit Valuation
1. The assets of every fund are to be valued to determine the value at which units of a particular fund can be liquidated or purchased for investment
    purposes.
2. The unit price of a unit of a fund shall be determined by the Company but in any event shall not be less than the value of fund of the relevant fund (as
    defined below), divided by the number of units of the given fund in issue on the business day before the valuation date, and the result adjusted to the
    nearest one hundredth of a cent.
3. The maximum value of any asset of any fund shall not exceed the following price:
    a) The last transacted market price at which those assets could be purchased or sold on the business day before the valuation date; or
    b) In the case of securities for which market values are not readily available, the price at which, in our Investment Manager’s opinion, the asset
         may have been purchased on the business day before the valuation date;
    plus any expenses which would have been incurred in its acquisition.
4. To ensure fair treatment to all unit holders, the cost of acquiring and disposing of assets is recouped by making a transaction cost adjustment to the
    net asset value per unit.

Exceptional Circumstances
The Company reserves the right to defer the payment of benefits (other than death benefit) under this Policy for a period not exceeding six (6) months
from the date the payment would have been normally effected if not for intervening events such as temporary closure of any Stock Exchange in which the
fund is invested which the Company, in its discretion, may consider exceptional.

Basis of Calculation of Past Performance
The historical performance of the fund is calculated based on the price difference over the period in consideration compared to the older price of the
period in consideration.

                                                                                Unit Pricet − Unit Pricet-1

Investment Risks
All investments carry risks. Policy Owners must be prepared to accept certain degree of risk associated with this Investment. The following are the non-
exhaustive list of risks associated to this fund.
1. Market Risk
      Market risk stems from the fact that there are other economy-wide perils, which threaten all businesses. It is mainly caused by uncertainties in the
      economy, political and social environment.

2.   Liquidity Risk
     Liquidity risk is the risk that the fund invested cannot be readily sold and converted into cash. This may arise when the trading volume is low and/or
     where there is a lack of demand for the security.

3.   Credit Risk
     This refers to the possibility that the issuer of a security will not be able to make timely payments of interest or principal repayment on the maturity
     date. The default may lead to a fall in the value of the funds.

4.   Interest Rate Risk
     The level of interest rates has an impact on the value of investments. Any increase in rates will lead to a fall in the value of securities, thus affecting
     the value of the funds.

5.   Country Risk
     The foreign investment of a fund may be affected by the political & economic conditions of the country which the investments are made.

6.   Currency Risk
     This risk is associated with investments that are denominated in foreign currencies. Fluctuation in foreign exchange rates will have an impact on the
     value of the funds.

Risk Management
The Company has in place its Authorized Investment Framework which forms part of the Risk Management process. The authority framework will cover
the nature and scope of the investment authority that is exercisable by various parties in managing the Company’s investments. Besides this, sensitivity
and stress testing is conducted to inform the Company’s management the profit & loss profiles of their investments under different pre-defined risk
scenarios and the necessary action to be taken if the potential losses exceed the Company’s risk tolerance level.

Basis of Unit Valuation
1. The assets of every fund are to be valued to determine the value at which units of a particular fund can be liquidated or purchased for investment
     purposes.
2. The unit price of a unit of a fund shall be determined by the Company but in any event shall not be less than the value of fund of the relevant fund (as
     defined below), divided by the number of units of the given fund in issue on the business day before the valuation date, and the result adjusted to the
     nearest one hundredth of a cent.
3. The maximum value of any asset of any fund shall not exceed the following price:
     a) The last transacted market price at which those assets could be purchased or sold on the business day before the valuation date; or
     b) In the case of securities for which market values are not readily available, the price at which, in our Investment Manager’s opinion, the asset
           may have been purchased on the business day before the valuation date;
     plus any expenses which would have been incurred in its acquisition.
4. To ensure fair treatment to all unit holders, the cost of acquiring and disposing of assets is recouped by making a transaction cost adjustment to the
     net asset value per unit.
Exceptional Circumstances
The Company reserves the right to defer the payment of benefits (other than death benefit) under this Policy for a period not exceeding six (6) months
from the date the payment would have been normally effected if not for intervening events such as temporary closure of any Stock Exchange in which the
fund is invested which the Company, in its discretion, may consider exceptional.

Basis of Calculation of Past Performance
The historical performance of the fund is calculated based on the price difference over the period in consideration compared to the older price of the
period in consideration.
                                                                                Unit Pricet − Unit Pricet-1

Net returns are adjusted for tax and fund management fees.
Those are the actual returns in the past three (3) years, or since inception if shorter, and are strictly the performance of the investment-linked fund. Thus,
the returns are not earned on the actual premium paid of the investment-linked product.

The fund was only launched on 1 October 2015. The actual investment returns are calculated based on unit price from 1 October 2015 to 31 December
2015.

Investment Risks
All investments carry risks. Policy Owners must be prepared to accept certain degree of risk associated with this Investment. The following are the non-
exhaustive list of risks associated to this fund.

1.   Market Risk
     Market risk stems from the fact that there are other economy-wide perils, which threaten all businesses. It is mainly caused by uncertainties in the
     economy, political and social environment.

2.   Liquidity Risk
     Liquidity risk is the risk that the fund invested cannot be readily sold and converted into cash. This may arise when the trading volume is low and/or
     where there is a lack of demand for the security.

3.   Credit Risk
     This refers to the possibility that the issuer of a security will not be able to make timely payments of interest or principal repayment on the maturity
     date. The default may lead to a fall in the value of the funds.

4.   Interest Rate Risk
     The level of interest rates has an impact on the value of investments. Any increase in rates will lead to a fall in the value of securities, thus affecting
     the value of the funds.

5.   Concentration Risk
     This risk is associated with a feeder fund whereby the investments of such fund are not diversified. A feeder fund invests mainly into another
     collective investment scheme.

6.   Country Risk
     The foreign investment of a fund may be affected by the political & economic conditions of the country which the investments are made.

7.   Currency Risk
     This risk is associated with investments that are denominated in foreign currencies. Fluctuation in foreign exchange rates will have an impact on the
     value of the funds.

Risk Management
The Company has in place its Authorized Investment Framework which forms part of the Risk Management process. The authority framework will cover
the nature and scope of the investment authority that is exercisable by various parties in managing the Company’s investments. Besides this, sensitivity
and stress testing is conducted to inform the Company’s management the profit & loss profiles of their investments under different pre-defined risk
scenarios and the necessary action to be taken if the potential losses exceed the Company’s risk tolerance level.

Basis of Unit Valuation
1. The assets of every fund are to be valued to determine the value at which units of a particular fund can be liquidated or purchased for investment
    purposes.
2. The unit price of a unit of a fund shall be determined by the Company but in any event shall not be less than the value of fund of the relevant fund (as
    defined below), divided by the number of units of the given fund in issue on the business day before the valuation date, and the result adjusted to the
    nearest one hundredth of a cent.
3. The maximum value of any asset of any fund shall not exceed the following price:
    a) The last transacted market price at which those assets could be purchased or sold on the business day before the valuation date; or
    b) In the case of securities for which market values are not readily available, the price at which, in our Investment Manager’s opinion, the asset
         may have been purchased on the business day before the valuation date;
    plus any expenses which would have been incurred in its acquisition.
4. To ensure fair treatment to all unit holders, the cost of acquiring and disposing of assets is recouped by making a transaction cost adjustment to the
    net asset value per unit.

Exceptional Circumstances
The Company reserves the right to defer the payment of benefits (other than death benefit) under this Policy for a period not exceeding six (6) months
from the date the payment would have been normally effected if not for intervening events such as temporary closure of any Stock Exchange in which the
fund is invested which the Company, in its discretion, may consider exceptional.
