3 Report of the Manager The Report of the Manager consists of The Trust, Investment Objectives & Policy, The Trust's Performance, Risk and Reward Profile, Investment Adviser's Comments and Portfolio Statement. The Trust is an authorised Unit Trust scheme under section 243 of the Financial Services and Markets Act (2000) and is constituted by a Trust Deed dated 6 December The Unit Trust is subject to the rules of the Financial Conduct Authority's Collective Investment Scheme Sourcebook and is classified as a UCITS Scheme. With effect from 10 October 2016, the name of the Scheme has been changed to the St. James's Place Asia Pacific Unit Trust. Investment Objectives & Policy The aim of the Scheme is capital growth from investment principally in the stock markets of Japan, the Far East and the Pacific Basin, which may include investments that are listed, registered or trading within this area. The Scheme is permitted to invest in derivative and forward transactions for the purposes of efficient portfolio management (including hedging). Please note that the investment objectives of the Scheme were amended by an EGM of Unitholders on 21 September With effect from 10 October 2016, the investment objectives are now as follows: The investment objective of the Scheme is to achieve long-term capital appreciation. The Scheme aims to achieve this objective by predominantly investing into the equities of companies exposed to the Asia Pacific. This includes companies based outside of the region who derive an economic benefit from countries in the Asia Pacific. The Scheme is intended to be invested with only limited or no exposure to equities issued by companies in Japan. The Scheme is also permitted to invest in other types of transferable securities, units and/or shares in collective investment schemes, money market instruments and deposits. The Scheme is permitted to invest in derivatives for investment purposes (although it is anticipated this will be limited and/or infrequent use) and for the purposes of efficient portfolio management (including hedging). It is the Manager's intention that the assets of the Unit Trust will be invested so that the Unit Trust will be eligible for inclusion in an ISA. The Trust's Performance The performance of the Trust since its launch in January 1992, over the five year period since September 2011 and over the period under review is shown below, together with figures for the most commonly quoted indices in comparable markets where the major proportion of the Trust has been invested.

PLEASE BE AWARE THAT PAST PERFORMANCE IS NOT INDICATIVE OF FUTURE PERFORMANCE. 2
4 Report of the Manager (continued) Risk and Reward Profile The synthetic risk and reward indicator for the St. James s Place Far East Unit Trust, as disclosed in its most recent Key Investor Information Document (KIID), is a 5. It was calculated using performance data up to 1 February Please note that following changes to the Scheme which took place on 10 October 2016, the risk category will be a category 6 and calculated using indicative performance data for the type of investments held. Investment Adviser's Comments Global equities rose during the period, with central banks monetary policies driving sentiment. Markets cheered as Japan and Europe imposed negative interest rates, while tepid economic data and deflationary pressures forced the US Federal Reserve to keep rates unchanged. These still-accommodative policies also helped markets recover quickly from the temporary jolt of Britain s unexpected decision to leave the European Union. Elsewhere, oil prices lifted when Opec members reached a preliminary deal to curb production. The overweight to Taiwan drove performance, where markets were buoyed by foreign demand for large-cap stocks. Conversely, the overweight to South Africa hurt performance, amid concerns of weak economic growth and political instability. The top contributors for the period were EOG Resources, an oil and gas company that benefited from an improved outlook for commodities and the engineering company, the Weir Group, which benefited from the increase in oil prices. As for detractors, the IT provider, Cognizant Technology s stock fell after it disclosed that it was conducting an internal probe to determine whether its payments in India violated anti-corruption laws. Another detractor over the period was Check Point Software who fell on weakness in the broader cyber-security sector. Despite the negatives, the portfolio rose over the six months and outperformed the benchmark FTSE World Index. We sold Canadian National Railway, which has performed well but faces an increasingly-challenging operating environment. We also exited the French energy management company Schneider, in favour of Japan s Keyence, a market leader that taps into growing demand for factory automation. Elsewhere, we introduced Japanese snack food company Calbee, which has promising long-term prospects, and Casey s General Stores, an attractively-valued, well-managed US convenience store operator. In terms of global growth, it seems to be faltering again. Political risks, namely, the outcome of the US presidential election and the commencement of the UK s formal Brexit negotiation process are likely to drive volatility. Major central banks have started to realise that prolonged easy monetary policy lacks the muscle to boost growth, and we are beginning to see the return of fiscal stimulus, notably in Japan and China. Despite this challenging environment, we remain focused on quality, and will seek opportunities to build our positions in well-managed businesses that are trading at attractive valuations. Aberdeen Asset Managers Limited 14 October
5 Report of the Manager (continued) From 10 October 2016, First State Investments (Hong Kong) Limited replaced Aberdeen Asset Managers Limited as Investment Adviser to the Trust. First State Stewart Asia is an independent investment management team within First State Investments. The team manages a range of Asia Pacific equity strategies on behalf of institutional and wholesale clients globally, with offices in Hong Kong, Singapore and Edinburgh. We are conviction-based, bottom-up stock selectors with a strong emphasis on high quality proprietary research. Our investment approach adopts an absolute return mind-set and is inherently conservative, focusing on capital preservation as well as capital growth. By focusing on the potential downside (not just the upside) when making an investment decision, the risk to long-term client returns is significantly reduced. We are long-term investors and prefer to invest in quality companies that we can hold onto for many years. The outlook for Asian equity markets remains uncertain. Despite the increasing prevalence of negative interest rates in developed markets, global growth remains muted. This lack of growth has resulted in challenging export conditions for Asian corporates. Low, and particularly negative, interest rates are likely to have many unforeseen consequences, but for now there are few inflationary pressures. If anything, the build-up of debt may become deflationary as cash flows are directed towards debt repayment. While inflation remains muted, in Asia, interest rate cuts are more likely than increases, as central banks look to stimulate domestic economies and avoid currency strength. 4
