12 MARKET REVIEW Asia Pacific ex-japan equities began the period well rising in April as they extending gains from the previous month after the U.S. Federal Reserve renewed its pledge to stimulate growth in the U.S. with low interest rates. Inflation continued to be a concern to the region as China and Thailand raised interest rates in April. China s central bank also increased its reserve requirement ratio in April, the fourth time this year. Markets began to deteriorate in May on the back of rising risk aversion and weaker economic data. Investors continued to focus on quarterly earnings results, the imminent end to quantitative easing measures (QE2) and China s weaker-than-expected April economic numbers. The Euro zone sovereign debt concerns resurfaced and weighed on sentiment with anti-austerity riots seen in Spain and Greece and the potential of a second financial aid package for Greece. Asia Pacific equity markets continued to fall in June weighed down by worries over the impact of anti-inflation policies in the region, weakness in U.S. economic data and renewed concern over the Euro zone debt crisis. Financial markets in June were affected by events in Greece as PM Papandreou narrowly secured a confidence vote in Parliament. Market concerns eased at the end of the month as the Greek Parliament passed a fiveyear plan for austerity measures, a move deemed as necessary to avoid default. In the U.S., manufacturing expanded at the slowest pace in over a year and the jobless rate unexpectedly climbed to its highest level this year. The International Monetary Fund cut its forecast for U.S. growth in 2011 for the second time in two months. A short respite in July was led by ASEAN markets as a new aid plan for Greece assuaged concerns Europe s debt crisis will spread. The equity markets in the region were captive to the U.S. debt ceiling debate as Congress and US President Barack Obama waged a political battle over a proposed increase in the federal government s debt ceiling. The impasse over increasing the debt ceiling, given that the US government was scheduled to run out of cash by early August, raised the spectre of a possible default by the US government for the first time in its history. Aside from the EU debt issue and the US debt ceiling, investors were struggling to retain their balance amid the slowing of the Chinese economy and the release of quarterly/half-year earnings. Asia Pacific ex-japan equity markets saw an across-the-board sell-off in August, triggered by Standard & Poor's downgrade of its U.S. sovereign credit rating. Rising fears of recession in the U.S. and continued concern that the euro zone debt crisis will spread contributed to the rout in the region's markets. Economic data released in August showed growth in Asian nations in April to June eased, adding to concerns that the global rebound from the financial crisis is losing steam. Sector-wise, 10 Customer Service:

13 defensives outperformed cyclicals in August. Telecoms, consumer staples and utilities were among the best performers while industrials, information technology and materials were the worst performers. Asia Pacific ex-japan equity markets retreated for a second consecutive month in September sending the regional benchmarks to their biggest loss since October 2008, the height of the credit crunch. Worries over global growth came to the fore due to the deepening debt crisis in Europe and the renewed threat of recession in the U.S. Asian shares in September bore the brunt of risk aversion on concern that the U.S. may be heading for a recession after the Federal Reserve warned of ``significant downside risks to the world s largest economy. The U.S. Fed s attempts to lift markets via manipulating the bond market had little effect on investor sentiment. Concern for a hard landing in China also troubled investors. The FBM KLCI closed the year under review at 1, points. It declined 12.16% during the period under review, lagging behind countries like Indonesia (-8.73%) and Thailand (-12.03%). In tandem with regional markets and FBM KLCI, FBM Shariah Emas Index closed the period under review lower by 13.22% while the MSCI Asia Pacific ex-japan Index retreated 21.49% in USD terms. 1 1 Source: Bloomberg: World indices Customer Service:

29 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES H CREATION AND CANCELLATION OF UNITS The Fund issues cancellable units, which are cancelled at the unit holder s option and are classified as equity. Cancellable units can be put back to the Fund at any time for cash equal to a proportionate share of the Fund s net asset value. The outstanding units is carried at the redemption amount that is payable at the net asset value if the holder exercises the right to put the unit back to the Fund. Units are created and cancelled at the holder s option at prices based on the Fund s net asset value per unit at the time of creation or cancellation. The Fund s net asset value per unit is calculated by dividing the net assets attributable to unitholder with the total number of outstanding units. I PROCEEDS AND PAYMENTS ON CREATION AND CANCELLATION OF UNITS The net asset value per unit is computed for each dealing day. The price at which units are created or cancelled is calculated by reference to the net asset value per unit as at the close of business on the relevant dealing day. Units in the Fund are classified as equity in the statement of financial position and are stated at fair value representing the price at which unit holders can redeem the units from the Fund. J DISTRIBUTION Distribution are at the discretion of the Fund. A distribution to the Fund s Unit holders is accounted for a deduction from realised reserves. A proposed distribution is recognised as a liability in the period in which it is approved. K AMOUNT DUE FROM/(TO) STOCKBROKERS Amounts due from and to brokers represent receivables for securities sold and payables for securities purchased that have been contracted for but not yet settled or delivered on the statement of financial position date respectively. Customer Service:

30 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES K AMOUNT DUE FROM/(TO) STOCKBROKERS (CONTINUED) These amounts are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less provision for impairment for amounts due from brokers. A provision for impairment of amounts due from brokers is established when there is objective evidence that the Fund will not be able to collect all amounts due from the relevant broker. Significant financial difficulties of the broker, probability that the broker will enter bankruptcy or financial reorganisation, and default in payments are considered indicators that the amount due from brokers is impaired. Once a financial asset or a group of similar financial assets has been written down as a result of an impairment loss, interest income is recognised using the rate of interest used to discount the future cash flows for the purpose of measuring the impairment loss. The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial asset or financial liability and of allocating the interest income or interest expense over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments or receipts throughout the expected life of the financial instrument, or, when appropriate, a shorter period, to the net carrying amount of the financial asset or financial liability. When calculating the effective interest rate, the Fund estimates cash flows considering all contractual terms of the financial instrument but does not consider future credit losses. The calculation includes all fees and points paid or received between parties to the contract that are an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and all other premiums or discounts. L SEGMENTAL INFORMATION A business segment is a group of assets and operations engaged in providing products or services that are subject to risks and returns that are different from those of other business segments. A geographical segment is engaged in providing products or services within a particular economic environment that are subject to risks and returns that are different from those of segments operating in other economic environments. 28 Customer Service:

32 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES N CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGMENTS The preparation of financial statements in conformity with the Financial Reporting Standards and the SC Guidelines on Unit Trust Funds requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the financial period. Although these estimates are based on the Manager s best knowledge of current events and actions, actual results could differ from those estimates. Estimates and judgments are continually evaluated by the Manager and the Trustee and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. 30 Customer Service:

33 NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS for the six months financial period ended 30 September INFORMATION ON THE FUND Prudential Asia Pacific Equity Fund ( the Fund ) was constituted pursuant to the execution of a deed dated 15 July 2005 as modified by a Supplemental Deed dated 27 July 2007 and the Second Supplemental Deed dated 30 November 2009 entered into between Prudential Fund Management Berhad (the Manager ) and Mayban Trustees Berhad ( Mayban Trustees ). The Fund replaced Mayban Trustees with Deutsche Trustees Malaysia Berhad (the Trustee ) effective 1 October A Supplemental Master Deed ( Deed ) was entered into between the Manager and the Trustee on 30 July 2010 to effect the change of trustee from Mayban Trustees to the Trustee. The Fund was launched on 21 July 2005 and will continue its operations until terminated by the Trustee or the Manager as provided under Part 12 of the Deed. The Fund invests primarily in equity and equity-related securities. All investments will be subjected to the SC Guidelines on Unit Trust Funds, the Deed except where exemptions or variations have been approved by the Securities Commission Malaysia, internal policies and procedures and the Fund s objective. The main objective of the Fund is to seek medium to long term capital growth through investments in both local and approved foreign markets in Asia Pacific region and equity related securities with consistent or potential increase in dividend yields each at the point of purchase. The Manager is a company incorporated in Malaysia and is related to Prudential Plc., a public listed company in the United Kingdom. The principal activity of the Manager is the establishment and management of unit trust funds and asset management. 2 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES The Fund is exposed to a variety of risks which include market risk inclusive of price risk, interest rate risk and foreign exchange/currency risk, single issuer risk, liquidity risk, country risk, fund management risk, capital risk and credit/default risk. Financial risk management is carried out through internal control processes adopted by the Manager and adherence to the investment restrictions as stipulated by the SC Guidelines on Unit Trust Funds.

34 NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 2 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES (CONTINUED) Market risk (a) Price risk This risk refers to changes and developments in regulations, politics and the economy of the country. The very nature of a unit trust fund, however, helps mitigate this risk because a fund would generally hold a well-diversified portfolio of securities from different market sectors so that the collapse of any one security or any one market sector would not impact too greatly on the value of the fund. The table below shows assets of the Fund as at 30 September 2011 which are exposed to price risk (RM) Quoted securities designated at fair value through profit or loss 83,649,939 The following table summarises the sensitivity of the Fund s net asset value to movements in prices of quoted securities as at 30 September The analysis is based on the assumptions that the market price of the quoted securities increased and decreased by 5% with all other variables held constant. This represents management s best estimate of a reasonable possible shift in the quoted Shariah-compliant securities, having regard to the historical volatility of the prices. % Change in price of quoted securities Market value (RM) Change in net asset value (RM) +5% 87,832,436 4,182,497-5% 79,467,442 (4,182,497) 32 Customer Service:

35 NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 2 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES (CONTINUED) Market risk (continued) (b) Interest rate risk Interest rate risk refers to interest rate movements, which will affect the returns on the investments held by the Fund. The Fund s investments are short term in nature. Therefore, exposure to interest rate fluctuations in minimal. As at the date of the statement of financial position, all the financial assets and financial liabilities are non-interest bearing. As at 30 September 2011, the Fund is not exposed to a material level of interest rate risk. (c) Foreign exchange/currency risk As the Fund may invest its assets in securities denominated in a wide range of currencies other than Ringgit Malaysia, the net asset value of the fund expressed in Ringgit Malaysia may be affected favourably or unfavourably by exchange control regulations or changes in the exchange rates between Ringgit Malaysia and such other currencies. The risk is minimised through investing in a wide range of foreign currencies denominated assets and thus, diversifying the risk of single currency exposure. In the normal course of investment, the Fund Manager will usually not hedge foreign currency exposure. The Fund Manager may however depending on prevailing market circumstances at a particular point in time, choose to use forward or option contracts for hedging and risk reduction purposes.

37 NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 2 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES (CONTINUED) Single issuer risk Any major price fluctuation of a particular security invested by the Fund may affect the Fund s net asset value and thus the prices of units. The single issuer risk is managed by adhering to the investment limits as specified in the SC Guidelines on Unit Trust Funds. Liquidity risk The Fund maintains sufficient level of liquid assets, after consultation with the Trustee, to meet anticipated payments and cancellations of units by unitholders. Liquid assets comprise cash, deposits with licensed financial institutions and other instruments which are capable of being converted into cash within 7 days. The table below summarises the Fund s financial liabilities into relevant maturity groupings based on the remaining period as at the statement of financial position date to the contractual maturity date.

38 NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 2 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES (CONTINUED) Country risk The NAV of the Fund may be affected by uncertainties such as currency fluctuations, international political developments, restrictions on foreign investment and currency repatriation, changes in government policies, changes in taxation and other developments in the laws and regulations of countries in which investment may be made. In addition, the reduced availability of public information, the legal infrastructure and the lack of uniform accounting, auditing and financial reporting standards or other regulatory practices and requirements may reduce the degree of investor protection afforded. Some of the securities may also be subjected to government taxes or incur high custodian expenses which may reduce the yield on such securities. Investing into various Asia-Pacific markets will however mitigate the country risk of the portfolio. Fund management risk There is the risk that the management company may not adhere to the investment mandate of the respective fund. With close monitoring by the investment committee, back office system being incorporated with limits and controls, and regular reporting to the senior management team, the management company is able to manage such risk. The Trustee has an oversight function over management of the Fund by the management company to safeguard the interests of unitholder. Capital risk The capital of the Fund is presented by equity consisting of unitholders capital and retained earnings. The amount of equity can change significantly on a daily basis as the Fund is subject to daily subscriptions and redemptions at the discretion of shareholders. The Fund s objective when managing capital is to safeguard the Fund s ability to continue as a going concern in order to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders and to maintain a strong capital base to support the development of the investment activities of the Fund. 36 Customer Service:

39 NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 2 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES (CONTINUED) Credit/Default risk Credit risk refers to the ability of an issuer or a counter party to make timely payments of profit, principals and proceeds from realisation of quoted investments. The credit risk arising from placements of deposits in licensed financial institutions is managed by ensuring that the Fund will only place deposits in reputable licensed financial institutions. For amount due from stockbrokers, the settlement terms are governed by the relevant rules and regulations as prescribed by Bursa Securities. The settlement terms of the proceeds from the creation of units receivable from the Manager are governed by the Securities Commission s Guidelines on Unit Trust Funds. The credit/default risk is minimal as all transactions in quoted investments are settled/paid upon delivery using approved brokers. Customer Service:
