6 DIRECTORS REPORT Performance and growth of assets During the year under review, Global equity markets significantly advanced over the period due to investor optimism about the outcome of the US elections and an improving global economic backdrop. Emerging markets was the best-performing region as earnings expectations were raised and the economic backdrop improved. Energy was one of the worst-performing sectors due to the volatility in the price of oil, stemming from increased global supply. Financials was the best-performing sector, specifically in the fourth quarter of 2016, as the prospects for earnings improvement increased. During the year, equity markets performed relatively better compared to bond markets. In terms of subfunds performance, the Dragon Growth Fund posted returns over 29%, while Asian Equity Fund and Greater China Opportunities Fund recorded over 18% and 25% respectively. Year in review In US, the Fed increased its federal funds target rate three times, by 25 basis points (bps) each time. During the fourth quarter of 2016, US Treasury yields were volatile and spiked sharply in a short amount of time after the US elections. This occurred due to expectation of expansive fiscal spending and higher inflation under the new presidential administration. 10-year Treasury yields rose from 1.47% to 2.30% over the period. Asian corporate credit markets saw gains, predominately driven by the positive carry. The JP Morgan Asian Investment Grade Corporate Bond Index returned 2.26% and the JP Morgan Asian High Yield Corporate Bond Index returned 6.48% in US dollar terms. The majority of sub-funds recorded positive returns over the year. In US, the stock market hit record highs shortly before period end, aided by the following factors: Promised production cuts by the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC), positive economic data, and the Fed s decision to inch its target short-term interest rate higher last December (and again in March and June). In Europe, markets performed strongly over the past 12 months, driven by a narrowing of the deep valuation discount to US equities and moderating political risk. The UK was the worst-performing major European market over the 12 months following the country s surprise vote to exit the EU (known as Brexit ). The British pound fell sharply in response to the UK s vote in late June 2016, with currency moves accounting for much of the underperformance of UK equities. The Greater China equity markets had a strong start during the period in review due to companies reporting mostly better-than-expected earnings during the third quarter reporting season, and as China s Producer Price Index (PPI) rose from a 55-month deflation in September and continued through May This was supportive of pricing power returning to corporates, as well as an improvement of the banking industry s asset quality. MANULIFE GLOBAL FUND 4

7 DIRECTORS REPORT Outlook Global markets should continue to fare well in Key indices continued to rise in the second quarter, with international markets outperforming the US. The US has struggled on a relative basis as the market questions the new administration s ability to implement its economic agenda. In Europe, investor sentiment remains reasonably positive and markets welcomed the outcome of France s presidential elections. However, most price-earnings ratios for global equities remain higher than historical averages. Comparable price-earnings ratios have not been seen since the early 2000s. The biggest potential market risks stem from high global valuations and high debt levels. Despite significant efforts by central banks to kickstart economies with an injection of liquidity, inflation remains subdued. Some measures of inflation expectations have even declined to levels below those experienced during previous periods of quantitative easing. Despite this, the Fed raised rates for the second time in three months. The PMs (Portfolio Managers) believe deflation risks remain and are not being priced-in by the market this contributes to concerns about higher debt levels. The PMs maintain a negative view of the utilities sector due to high valuations, which are a result of low interest rates, though the PMs note the sector is relatively no more expensive than the broader market.

8 AUDIT REPORT To the Shareholders of Manulife Global Fund Our opinion In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements give a true and fair view of the financial position of Manulife Global Fund and of each of its sub-funds (the Fund ) as at 30 June 2017, and of the results of their operations and changes in their net assets for the year then ended in accordance with Luxembourg legal and regulatory requirements relating to the preparation and presentation of the financial statements. What we have audited The Fund s financial statements comprise: the statement of net assets as at 30 June 2017; the portfolio of investment as at 30 June 2017; the statement of operations for the year then ended; the statement of changes in net assets for the year then ended; and the notes to the financial statements, which include a summary of significant accounting policies. Basis for opinion We conducted our audit in accordance with the Law of 23 July 2016 on the audit profession (Law of 23 July 2016) and with International Standards on Auditing (ISAs) as adopted for Luxembourg by the Commission de Surveillance du Secteur Financier (CSSF). Our responsibilities under those Law and standards are further described in the Responsibilities of the Réviseur d entreprises agréé for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. Independence We are independent of the Fund in accordance with the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (IESBA Code) as adopted for Luxembourg by the CSSF together with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements. We have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities under those ethical requirements.

9 AUDIT REPORT Other information The Board of Directors of the Fund is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the annual report but does not include the financial statements and our audit report thereon. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information identified above and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard. Responsibilities of the Board of Directors of the Fund and those charged with governance for the financial statements The Board of Directors of the Fund is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with Luxembourg legal and regulatory requirements relating to the preparation and presentation of the financial statements, and for such internal control as the Board of Directors of the Fund determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the financial statements, the Board of Directors of the Fund is responsible for assessing the Fund s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the Board of Directors of the Fund either intends to liquidate the Fund or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so. Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Fund s financial reporting process. Responsibilities of the Réviseur d entreprises agréé for the audit of the financial statements The objectives of our audit are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an audit report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with the Law of 23 July 2016 and with ISAs as adopted for Luxembourg by the CSSF will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. As part of an audit in accordance with the Law of 23 July 2016 and with ISAs as adopted for Luxembourg by the CSSF, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. 7 MANULIFE GLOBAL FUND

10 AUDIT REPORT We also: identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control; obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund s internal control; evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the Board of Directors of the Fund; conclude on the appropriateness of the Board of Directors of the Fund s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Fund s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our audit report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our audit report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Fund to cease to continue as a going concern; evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation. We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

94 AMERICAN GROWTH FUND Investment Objective: The sub-fund aims to achieve capital growth from a portfolio of North American equities, with the main emphasis on the U.S. While the portfolio consists predominantly of securities of a carefully selected list of larger companies, smaller and medium-sized quoted companies are also included. PERFORMANCE FROM 1 JULY 2016 TO 30 JUNE 2017* American Growth Fund Class A % American Growth Fund Class AA % American Growth Fund Class I % American Growth Fund Class I % S&P 500 Index % PERFORMANCE FROM 25 OCTOBER 2016 TO 30 JUNE 2017* American Growth Fund Class AA (HKD) % PORTFOLIO REVIEW Both sector allocations, which are driven by bottom-up stock picks, and security selection had a sizable positive impact on the sub-fund s performance. The sub-fund s portfolio manager (PM) stuck with the long-time strategy of focusing on financially sound companies with competitive advantages; the ability to generate substantial cash flow over sustained periods; and attractive stock prices compared to estimates of intrinsic value. This approach resulted in a sizable boost from stock selection and a sizable overweight in the financials sector. The sub-fund favoured several big banks that saw significant stock returns this past year. Prospects of deregulation, higher interest rates, and a better economic backdrop benefited the stocks. Furthermore, annual stress test results meant the banks could gain approval to increase their dividends and share buybacks. In the consumer discretionary sector, the sub-fund s largest position was a top contributor to performance. Strength in the company s core e-commerce business and cloud-computing operation drove first-quarter sales and earnings growth that topped estimates, driving the stock at one point through the US$1,000 per share mark. Expansion overseas and late-period plans to purchase another retailer (not in the sub-fund) also bolstered the company s prospects. Another top holding and standout was a consumer technology leader whose stock rose sharply, benefiting from a solid franchise and growth in the services side of the business. By contrast, stock picks in the energy sector and a small cash position in a rising market hampered performance. Among the sub-fund s biggest detractors this past year were a Netherlands-based energy services company, whose stock slid as continued low energy prices dampened demand for the services it provides to exploration and production (e&p) companies. Another detractor was a US-based e&p company whose stock was similarly pressured by weak energy prices. The risk of a dividend cut, given the company s relatively high debt level, worried investors, further hindering the stock. The holding was no longer in the portfolio at period end. Elsewhere, in consumer staples, a small stake in an infant formula company and a non-benchmark position in a global brewer hurt relative performance. Stock in the infant formula company fell due to its sizable exposure to China, where competition in the market has increased dramatically and regulations have made it more difficult for foreign competitors. Lower-than-expected sales in Asia, currency challenges, and price competition in the US hampered the company s earnings growth, causing a pullback in the stock. The PM sold the sub-fund s stake mid-way through the period. Shares of the brewer initially declined because of concern over whether the company would hit its synergy targets following last year s acquisition of a competitor. Weak economic growth in Brazil, one of the company s key end markets, and currency challenges further pressured the stock. * The performance return of the fund is calculated in U.S. dollar terms and includes dividends re-invested; whereas the index (or indices) is calculated in U.S. dollar terms and on total return basis. MANULIFE GLOBAL FUND 92

95 AMERICAN GROWTH FUND MARKET REVIEW The US stock market had a strong run for the year ended 30 June Central bank support, low bond yields globally, and better-than-expected US corporate earnings reports helped stocks climb to new records last summer and early autumn. Stocks took off again after the results of the November US presidential election spurred expectations of better economic growth, higher interest rates, lower corporate tax rates, looser government regulations, and increased infrastructure spending. The stock market hit record highs shortly before period end, aided by the following factors: Promised production cuts by the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC), positive economic data, and the Fed s decision to inch its target short-term interest rate higher last December (and again in March and June). Investors, however, faced some challenges as 2017 unfolded. Concern mounted over whether the Trump administration would be able to push forward its pro-growth agenda, given delays passing new healthcare legislation and accusations about its ties to Russia. Weak oil prices and concern about North Korea were added challenges. However, late-period news that all the big US banks had passed their annual stress tests helped lift the broad-based S&P 500 Index to a strong finish. Within the S&P 500, returns in the financials and information technology sectors were especially strong, while the moredefensive telecommunication services and real estate sectors and the energy sector ended the period with declines. OUTLOOK Although the rally in US stocks is one of the longest on record having begun in March 2009 the PM remains optimistic about the market s prospects. Expectations are that US and global economies will continue the path to recovery. In fact, US economic growth could accelerate in the second half of 2017, especially if some of the Trump administration s pro-growth plans gain traction. Furthermore, consumer balance sheets and the US financial system remain healthy, US housing supply is below average, and unemployment is at a 16-year low. If US economic growth stays on track, the Fed will likely move ahead with unwinding some of the monetary stimulus measures that have been in place for years now, with further interest rate hikes and the sale of some of the assets in its US$4.5 trillion portfolio. The PM is also encouraged because first-quarter earnings in the S&P 500 Index exceeded consensus estimates by a wide margin. The PM thinks the market is at the beginning of a handoff, with a shift toward earnings rather than monetary policy driving gains going forward. Lastly, the PM continues to find good quality companies at stock valuations that look attractive relative to improving earnings growth prospects. The PM found some of the best opportunities in the economically sensitive financials and consumer discretionary sectors, each a sizable overweight, and in the information technology sector. These three sectors together accounted for over 60% of the sub-fund s assets at period end. 93 MANULIFE GLOBAL FUND

98 ASEAN EQUITY FUND The investment objective of the sub-fund is to generate long-term capital growth through investing primarily in equity and equity-related securities of companeis listed or incorporated in countries which are members of ASEAN as well as companies incorporated outside ASEAN but which have significant economic exposure to, or derive a significant proportion of their income from the ASEAN region. The ASEAN region is defined as members of the Association of South East Asian Nations, which currently comprise Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia, Brunei, the Philippines, Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos and Myanmar. PERFORMANCE FROM 1 JULY 2016 TO 30 JUNE 2017* ASEAN Equity Fund Class I +6.86% MSCI South East Asia Index % PORTFOLIO REVIEW Stock selection in Indonesia and Thailand negatively impacted performance. However, this was partly offset by stock selection in the Philippines and Singapore, and the underweight in the Philippines. The top contributor was a Singaporean electronics contract manufacturing services provider, which reported strong first quarter earnings results on the back of broad-based growth in demand especially in the medical and technology fields. A Philippine casino operator contributed positively to performance due to better-than-expected first quarter earnings. This was driven by a surge in gross gaming revenue across all business segments. Furthermore, the number of foreign players has increased (especially from China). Some of the sub-fund s holdings in Indonesia were the key detractors. The main detractor was a construction materials supplier as investors lost patience over the delivery of earnings from the implementation of government projects. The sub-fund s portfolio manager (PM) continues to like the company the PM expects new contracts to ramp-up by the second half of 2017, and the company s cash flows to improve accordingly. Another detractor was a property developer given the weak sentiment on the real estate sector due to slow pre-sales. Good prospects for the company remain as its pre-sales gain momentum for the rest of the year with the launch of its new projects. From a sector perspective, the key detractors were stock selection in materials and consumer staples, and the underweight in financials. Stock selection in industrials and telecommunication services, and the overweight in information technology contributed positively to performance. * The performance return of the fund is calculated in U.S. dollar terms and includes dividends re-invested; whereas the index (or indices) is calculated in U.S. dollar terms and on total return basis. MANULIFE GLOBAL FUND 96

99 ASEAN EQUITY FUND MARKET REVIEW Southeast Asian equity markets had a strong start during the period in review due to companies reporting mostly better-than-expected earnings during the third quarter reporting season. During the first half of 2017, strong positive sentiment buoyed the Southeast Asian markets due to the notable improvement in economic data across the region as well as on improved earnings outlook. Despite the Fed hiking policy rates thrice by 25 basis points (bps) each in December, March, and June to 1.25%, the central bank maintained a dovish outlook on the tightening cycle. Oil prices were volatile as Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) and non-opec members decision to extend their production cut was offset by mounting concerns on weak demand and a supply glut. Singapore s first quarter GDP rose by 2.7% year-on-year on the back of the manufacturing sector s strong growth. Non-oil domestic exports decline in May was better than expected as robust electronics sector growth was offset by non-electronic exports. Industrial production in May rose given the growth in all segments except for the biomedical cluster. The government surprised the property market by relaxing the seller s stamp duty. This marked the first easing after years of maintaining a tight stance in the real estate sector. Indonesia s sovereign credit rating was upgraded by S&P in May by one notch (to BBB-), achieving full investment grade status among the major credit rating agencies. First quarter GDP growth registered at 5.0% year-on-year, supported by strong exports, steady private consumption, and fixed investments. Consumer confidence index in May of was the highest in nearly 17 years due to expectations of better economic conditions and job availability. The tax amnesty programme, which was launched last July, has concluded by the end of March, with total government revenue amounting to IDR411 trillion (around US$31 billion) and accounting for around 35% of the estimated budget deficit for the 2017 fiscal year. Thailand s first quarter GDP expanded by 3.3% year-on-year, the fastest in three quarters, driven by the agricultural sector, exports, and household consumption. The Thai Cabinet approved the budget to alleviate the financial situation of farmers and improve rice production. The central bank kept policy rates unchanged as it expressed optimism on the improving growth outlook and on the bigger role of fiscal spending. In relation to this, the central bank raised the 2017 GDP growth forecast from 3.2% year-onyear to 3.4%. The Thai King passed away after 70 years of rule in October. Malaysia s first quarter GDP growth was faster than expected at 5.6% year-on-year (relative to consensus forecast of 4.8%) due to strong private consumption and investments. Exports in April surged 20.6% year-on-year due to strong demand for its manufactured goods. Industrial production in April rose slower than expected as it was dragged down by mining and electricity output. Malaysia s budget for 2017 was announced and will focus on private consumption and fiscal consolidation. The Philippines was the worst performing benchmark constituent market as concerns over political noise intensified. First quarter GDP grew by a slower-than-expected 6.4% year-on-year (compared to 6.7% market estimates), though it remains among the fastest in the region on the back of robust domestic demand and softer government spending. The government unveiled its 3-year infrastructure program amounting to PHP3.6 trillion (around US$72.0 billion). 97 MANULIFE GLOBAL FUND

100 ASEAN EQUITY FUND OUTLOOK The move by S&P in upgrading Indonesia to investment grade is an endorsement to the country s improving economic fundamentals. That said, the upside potential of most stocks and companies in the market remain under-appreciated as investors focus on short-term earnings weakness. The PM still believes that this market has a strong upside potential once the impact from the improvement in the economy trickles down to corporate earnings. Companies in Singapore, Thailand, and Malaysia, despite strong share price performance in the first quarter of 2017, had generally delivered weaker-than-expected earnings growth. This implies valuations have run ahead of fundamentals in most cases. The sub-fund deliberately stayed away from the unjustified stock rally during the period and focused on investing in good quality companies trading on reasonable valuations. The strategy has paid off in the recent month, and contributed to the strong outperformance of the portfolio relative to benchmark year to date. The longer-term outlook of South East Asia markets remain positive as governments continue to spend on infrastructure projects. This is amplified by investments from China under its Belt and Road initiatives. Philippines and Thailand are benefiting from a strong influx of Chinese visitors, while Malaysia and Indonesia receive funding for various infrastructure projects. The multiplier effect from these economic activities is expected to contribute positively to domestic consumption and asset prices in due course. MANULIFE GLOBAL FUND 98

108 ASIA TOTAL RETURN FUND Investment Objective: The sub-fund aims to maximize total returns from a combination of capital appreciation and income generation. The sub-fund primarily invests in a diversified portfolio of fixed income securities, issued by governments, agencies, supra-nationals and corporate issuers in Asia. The sub-fund may also invest (up to 30 per cent of its net assets) in cash and fixed income securities of other issuers outside Asia if the Investment Manager considers that such securities will achieve the goal of maximizing capital appreciation and income generation. The sub-fund invests in securities denominated in Asian currencies or other currencies. It may invest in local currency bonds with unhedged currency exposure to achieve currency gains. The sub-fund may also hedge for efficient portfolio management purposes. The sub-fund may invest in higher-yielding debt securities rated lower than investment grade, or if unrated, their equivalent. As such, an investment in this sub-fund is accompanied by a higher degree of credit risk. PERFORMANCE FROM 1 JULY 2016 TO 30 JUNE 2017* Asia Total Return Fund Class AA +3.77% Asia Total Return Fund Class AA Inc +3.78% Asia Total Return Fund Class AA (HKD) +3.77% Asia Total Return Fund Class AA (HKD) Inc +3.77% Asia Total Return Fund Class I +4.07% Asia Total Return Fund Class I % Asia Total Return Fund Class J +4.60% MGF Asia Total Return Custom Index +2.91% PORTFOLIO REVIEW The portfolio s overall security selection in corporate bonds was the main contributor to relative performance. The portfolio s exposure to Indonesian and Indian local currency also contributed positively amid lower bond yields. Furthermore, the portfolio s underweight US dollar interest rate positioning was also a contributor, amid a rising US interest rate environment. On the other hand, the portfolio s zero exposure to Taiwanese dollars slightly detracted from performance, with the currency strengthening against the US dollar over the period. MARKET REVIEW In US, the Fed increased its federal funds target rate three times, by 25 basis points (bps) each time. During the fourth quarter of 2016, US Treasury yields were volatile and spiked sharply in a short amount of time after the US elections. This occurred due to expectation of expansive fiscal spending and higher inflation under the new presidential administration. 10-year Treasury yields rose from 1.47% to 2.30% over the period. Moody s Investors Service downgraded China s sovereign credit rating from Aa3 to A1. The rating agency cited several factors, such as rising debt levels and slowing potential growth, which could erode the country s financial strength. The announcement had minimal impact on Chinese bond and currency markets, as it had been largely expected by most market participants. Standard & Poor s upgraded Indonesia s sovereign credit rating from BB+ to BBB-, as the government was successful in reducing its budget deficit. With this upgrade, the country was rated investment-grade by all three major credit rating agencies. Indonesian government bond yields fell over the period amid expectations of further capital inflows from foreign investors. Indian government bond yields fell over the period as the government announced the demonetisation of large-denomination notes. This move led to a surge of liquidity in the banking system and a subsequent increase in bond investments from banks. Asian corporate credit markets saw gains, predominately driven by the positive carry. The JP Morgan Asian Investment Grade Corporate Bond Index returned 2.26% and the JP Morgan Asian High Yield Corporate Bond Index returned 6.48% in US dollar terms. * The performance return of the fund is calculated in U.S. dollar terms and includes dividends re-invested; whereas the index (or indices) is calculated in U.S. dollar terms and on total return basis. MANULIFE GLOBAL FUND 106

109 ASIA TOTAL RETURN FUND The performance of Asian currencies was mixed against the US dollar. The Indian rupee was one of the better performing currencies, as the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) raised the reverse repo rate by 25bps to 6% in April. The Philippine peso was one of weaker-performing currencies, as the country s trade deficit widened to US$2.8 billion in May. OUTLOOK The sub-fund s portfolio manager (PM) believes volatility in global and Asian bond markets may pick up in the coming months. Some developed central banks may be on the inflection point to normalise monetary policy, and there could be rising geopolitical risks regionally. Nevertheless, the PM believes overall fundamentals are supportive for Asian bond markets. Indonesia s full-fledged investment grade status may spur further capital inflow into the region. Asian credit spreads have continued to tighten amid capital inflows into the region. The PM is mindful of the relatively stretched valuations, but recognises that the abundant regional liquidity can continue mitigating refinancing risks and keeping credit spreads at relatively tight levels, especially in the corporate space. Meanwhile for currencies, the PM believes the strong US dollar environment could resume should there be any meaningful protectionism activities from the US. The PM is therefore watchful for opportunities to selectively take an underweight position in relatively export-reliant Asian currencies like the South Korean won and Taiwan dollar. 107 MANULIFE GLOBAL FUND

115 ASIA VALUE DIVIDEND EQUITY FUND Investment Objective: The sub-fund aims to achieve capital appreciation through investing primarily in a portfolio of equities and equity-related securities of companies that distribute dividends, and are domiciled in, or derive significant income from, or have significant operations in the Far East ex-japan region ( FarEast in this context bears the same meaning as MSCI Barra ascribes to its index universe under the MSCI AC Far East ex-japan Index it comprises countries or markets including Thailand, Taiwan, South Korea, Singapore, Philippines, Malaysia, Indonesia, Hong Kong and China). These companies are listed or traded on the stock exchanges of the Far East ex-japan region. The underlying investment philosophy for the Sub-Fund is based on the belief that, while markets are inefficient and discrepancies exist in the short-run, prices in the longrun ultimately reflect fundamental values. The Sub-Fund seeks to identify under-valued securities comprising the MSCI AC Far East ex- Japan Index that will benefit from the upside correction between the market s short-term inefficiency and long-term efficiency. PERFORMANCE FROM 1 JULY 2016 TO 30 JUNE 2017* Asia Value Dividend Equity Fund Class AA % Asia Value Dividend Equity Fund Class AA Inc % MSCI AC Far East Free ex-japan Index % PORTFOLIO REVIEW The sub-fund rose 22.7% in the year ended 30 June For reference, the MSCI Far East (ex-japan) Index returned 28.2% over the corresponding period. On a long-term basis, the portfolio delivered an annualized return of 8.9% since inception, compared with 8.1% of the MSCI AC Far East (ex-japan) Index in the same period (both returns are net of fees and are in USD term). During the year, the position in a Korean leading technology hardware company continued to be one of the key contributors supported by significant earnings upward revision in The sub-fund s portfolio manager continues to hold the position on the belief that its leading position in dynamic randomaccess memory (DRAM), negative-and (NAND) and organic light-emitting diode (OLED) products offer strong growth drivers for the company s revenue. Meanwhile, the holding in a leading Chinese property developer was also among the top performance contributors. Despite continued tightening measures in the property space, the company exhibited strong sales (200% year-on-year sales growth for the month of May 2017) and balance sheet management with a below-industry average net gearing of 54% as of end The company also lifted payout ratio from 25% to 30% which supported the sub-fund s dividend thesis. On the flip side, our underweight in the technology sector (average portfolio weight: 14.17%; average index weight: 29.13%), in particular internet stocks, weighed on portfolio performance during the year. The sector has surged remarkably in the period on strong earnings growth and was the key performance contributor for the benchmark Index. However, since internet stocks generally trade at high multiples and pay almost zero dividend, they do not align with the sub-fund s high-dividend theme. Therefore, the portfolio manager assigned a lower-than-index weighting to internet stocks to maintain a stable stream of dividend income. Meanwhile, as the market targeted their attention on internet stocks, many sectors were left underappreciated, creating compelling investment opportunities for value investors. A good example was the consumer sector: in the first half of 2017, three of the sub-fund s holdings in the consumer sector were privatized, which showed that private equities funds were also out looking for undervalued opportunities. It is expected that these companies might be re-listed in a few years at a much higher valuation. MARKET REVIEW In the Chinese market, signs of confidence are returning in the year under review. The first-quarter macro data of 2017 continued to show that the world s second-largest economy is gaining momentum with benign inflation pressure. Activity in China s manufacturing sector picked up further in March 2017 with the official Purchasing Managers Index ( PMI ) rose for the second consecutive month to 51.8, the highest since April 2012, supported by China s increased efforts in providing fiscal stimulus which started in 2016, as well as improving domestic and export demand. * The performance return of the fund is calculated in U.S. dollar terms and includes dividends re-invested; whereas the index (or indices) is calculated in U.S. dollar terms and on total return basis. 113 MANULIFE GLOBAL FUND

116 ASIA VALUE DIVIDEND EQUITY FUND In the second quarter of 2017, a series of encouraging macro data signalled further stabilization in China s economy. The official manufacturing PMI stayed in expansionary territory in June for the 11th consecutive month while export surprised on the upside on the back of global trade recovery, rising 8.7% in May in USD terms. Meanwhile, China s retail sales grew 10.7% from a year earlier in May 2017, reflecting the continuous progress in China s shift towards a consumption-driven economy. At the policy front, the Beijing government has made steady progress in pushing ahead supply-side reforms, while stability was once again highlighted as a top policy priority for 2017 at the Politburo meeting. Positive messages were also delivered at the National People s Congress ( NPC ) in March Presenting the government work report at the NPC, Premier Li Keqiang noted that growth stability and currency stability are the top priorities for the year. Amid the transition from a pro-growth stance in 2016 to growth stability in 2017, China set its growth target for 2017 at a more reasonable level at 6.5% and the sub-fund s portfolio manager believes this is achievable. With the recent macro improvement, this has also created more room for policymakers to tackle financial excesses and overcapacity. Against this backdrop, China is expected to maintain a more prudent monetary policy and will focus on risk control measures, such as financial regulation strengthening and the speed up of supply-side reform. While deleveraging will constrain liquidity in the market, it is believed that these initiatives are positive to China over the long run. In the Asia ex-japan market, dividend pay-outs have been on the rise underpinned by Asian companies stronger financial position and returning earnings growth. The market extended its strength in the second quarter of 2017 with an 8.3% return in the MSCI Asia ex Japan Index ( the Index ) while in the high dividend space, the MSCI Asia ex Japan High Dividend Yield Index was up 5.6%. Year-to-date as at 30 June 2017, the two indices gained 22.8% and 17.6%, respectively. The strong performance was underpinned by broad-based earnings upward revisions and external demand recovery within the region. In South Korea, stockmarket bounced to fresh record highs in the second quarter of 2017 amid a recovering economic cycle, robust exports and better sentiment at households and businesses. On the macro front, the Nikkei South Korea Manufacturing Purchasing Managers Index (PMI) entered expansionary territory for the first time in 11 months in June while export extended an uptrend for the eighth month in a row by expanding 13.7% year-on-year. During the quarter, Samsung Electronics has announced a positive shareholder return policy, which further supported its rerating potential in addition to its strong fundamentals. In the medium term, other Korean corporations may follow this positive exemplary change and potentially narrow the valuation discount in the Korea market within the region. In ASEAN where market performance is lagging within the Asia region, there are positive signs of economic recovery with gross domestic product (GDP) accelerating in the first quarter of 2017 (4.7% year-on-year growth versus 4.5% in the fourth quarter of 2016). Both Malaysia and Thailand s firstquarter 2017 GDP growth beat consensus expectation in the second quarter of Despite the relatively rich valuations, the sub-fund s portfolio manager turned more positive on the financial sector in selective ASEAN markets, such as banks in Indonesian and the Philippines, as these two markets offer secular strong loan growth of over 10% and valuations are attractive with a price-to-book ratio of 1.5 times. OUTLOOK Looking forward to the second half of the year, the portfolio manager remains constructive on Asia ex Japan equities despite their strong market performance in the first half. With the latest consensus 2017 estimated earnings growth of 18.1% for the MSCI Asia ex Japan Index (versus 13.2% in January), the portfolio manager expects the region s earnings growth will continue to be the fundamental driver. This, together with improvement in cashflow generation, is supportive for dividend growth within the region. Although the 12-month forward price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of the MSCI Asia ex Japan index has normalized to 12.9 times, it is still trading at an attractive level relative to developed markets and most emerging countries.

120 ASIAN EQUITY FUND Investment Objective: The sub-fund aims to achieve capital growth by investing in a diversified portfolio of securities of companies listed on stock markets throughout Asia, including those in Australia, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Malaysia, New Zealand, the People s Republic of China, the Philippines, Singapore, South Korea, Taiwan and Thailand, but not any of the stock exchanges in Japan. A proportion of the subfund may be invested in warrants and convertible bonds issued by, or in respect of, such companies. PERFORMANCE FROM 1 JULY 2016 TO 30 JUNE 2017* Asian Equity Fund Class A % Asian Equity Fund Class AA % Asian Equity Fund Class I % Asian Equity Custom Benchmark % PERFORMANCE FROM 13 SEPTEMBER 2016 TO 30 JUNE 2017 Asian Equity Fund Class I % PORTFOLIO REVIEW Stock selection in South Korea, Taiwan, and China negatively impacted performance. However, this was partly offset by stock selection in India, Malaysia, and the underweight in Malaysia. The top contributor was a South Korean semiconductor and smartphone maker which consistently reported better-than-expected quarterly earnings driven by the semiconductor business. Furthermore, the unveiling of its highly anticipated new smartphone models and its announcement to cancel treasury shares were well-received by the market. Another contributor was an Indian automobile manufacturer which consistently exhibited strong volume growth throughout the period in review. The sub-fund s portfolio manager (PM) expects the company to maintain its dominant position driven by its improving product mix and the country s strong domestic consumption. The main detractor was a South Korean cosmetics and skincare producer on the back of China s travel ban of South Korea considering geopolitical tensions. The PM expects South Korea-China relations to improve, and its global expansion plans to push through for the remainder of the year. A Hong Konglisted Chinese utilities operator negatively impacted performance due to a general lack of interest on the defensive high yield sector and its plans of an acquisition which was considered expensive by investors. The company s good fundamentals remain intact as it generates a steady cash flow and income stream, and consistently delivers a decent dividend yield to shareholders. From a sector perspective, the key detractors were stock selection in financials, industrials, and real estate. However, stock selection in information technology and consumer discretionary, the overweight in information technology, and underweight in utilities contributed positively to performance. MARKET REVIEW Asia ex Japan equities had a strong start during the period in review due to companies reporting mostly better-than-expected earnings during the third quarter reporting season. By the latter part of 2016, Asian markets reacted negatively to the strengthening dollar and higher bond yields post Donald Trump s victory, which raised several concerns on the impact of his campaign platforms to inflation and the future path of the Fed hiking cycle, as well on the future trade relations between the US and Asian economies. During the first half of 2017, strong positive sentiment buoyed the Asian markets due to the notable improvement in economic data across the region as well as on improved earnings outlook. Despite the Fed hiking policy rates thrice by 25 basis points (bps) each in December, March, and June to 1.25%, the central bank maintained a dovish outlook on the tightening cycle. Oil prices were volatile as Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) and non-opec members decision to extend their production cut was offset by mounting concerns on weak demand and a supply glut. * The performance return of the fund is calculated in U.S. dollar terms and includes dividends re-invested; whereas the index (or indices) is calculated in U.S. dollar terms and on total return basis. MANULIFE GLOBAL FUND 118

121 ASIAN EQUITY FUND China s first quarter GDP grew faster than expected at 6.9% year-on-year (relative to consensus estimates of 6.8%) due to robust infrastructure spending and the rising property market. In June, MSCI announced the inclusion of the country s A-shares in their global equity indices in two phases starting May 2018; it is a vote of confidence for China to further financial reforms and develop capital markets. The country s sovereign credit rating was downgraded by Moody s in May by one notch (to A1) due to expectations of a worsening debt situation along with slowing growth. However, its rating outlook was upgraded to stable from negative; investors reaction was muted despite the downgrade. Producer price index (PPI) finally rose from a 55-month deflation in September and recorded eight consecutive months of growth by May; this is supportive of pricing power returning to corporates, as well as an improvement of the banking industry s asset quality. Hong Kong s central bank raised its policy rates thrice by 25bps each in line with the Fed s policy rate move. Moody s also downgraded the state s sovereign credit rating by one notch (to Aa2) given its close economic linkages with China. Retail sales rose from a 2-year long decline in March and remained in positive territory for three consecutive months in May driven by resilient local demand and improving inbound tourism. Taiwan s first quarter GDP growth registered at 2.6% year-on-year due to resilient domestic consumption and robust exports. Exports in May posted its eighth consecutive month of growth on the back of solid demand for machinery, integrated circuits, and base metals. South Korea was the best performing market due to solid first quarter earnings results. First quarter GDP growth was higher than expected at 2.7% year-on-year (relative to consensus estimate of 2.6%) due to better construction investment. Political noise abated with the successful conclusion of the presidential election. Exports in May jumped 13.4% year-on-year, growing for a seventh consecutive month, driven by solid demand for electronics components. Southeast Asian economies posted some of the fastest growth rates in 2016 and during the first quarter of 2017, with a strong recovery in both manufacturing and exports. Indonesia s sovereign credit rating was upgraded by S&P in May by one notch (to BBB-), achieving full investment grade status among the major credit rating agencies. The tax amnesty programme, which was launched last July, has concluded by the end of March, with total government revenue amounting to IDR411 trillion (around US$31 billion) and accounting for around 35% of the estimated budget deficit for the 2017 fiscal year. In October, the Thai King passed away after 70 years of rule. In India, the dominant victory of the ruling party in the most recent state elections was deemed a positive development due to strengthened policy continuity, as well as a bigger scope to push for more reforms and government spending. In May, goods and services tax (GST) rates were announced for most goods, where rates for several sectors were higher than expected; however, consumer staples were kept at the lowest tax bracket. In November, the government demonetised high-value currency notes (INR500 and INR1,000) to address black money and corruption. Australia s GDP in the first quarter grew 1.7% year-on-year, which was slower than the previous quarter s growth at 2.4% but better than market estimate of 1.6% given soft household spending and the drag in net trade. The Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) cut its benchmark rate by 25bps to 1.5% in August, as inflation remains well below its target range. OUTLOOK Following a long rally streak across markets, the PM expects stock selection to take centre stage going forward. Companies with clear and sustainable earnings trends that are trading on reasonable valuations are expected to outperform value cyclical stocks. In China, the PM managed to find compelling opportunities through the Shanghai and Shenzhen connect platform. The PM s focus is to invest in companies with a strong brand presence and that possess a dominant market share both locally and internationally. These companies also generate strong cash flow and deliver consistent dividend growth over the years. More importantly, valuations remain reasonable relative to their growth profile. The PM has also identified the mobilisation of China s Belt and Road Initiatives as an opportunity. The PM believes that key leading state-owned enterprises will benefit from China s initiative to spread economic development across developing nations. 119 MANULIFE GLOBAL FUND

122 ASIAN EQUITY FUND South Korea is gaining more attention from the investment community as the country concluded its presidential election. The market widely expects the new administration to implement wider economic reforms and improve corporate governance of South Korean companies. Corporate earnings are also expected to improve on the back of strong exports as well as recovery in domestic consumption. Valuations remain attractive and the market has the potential to rerate as companies embark on investor friendly capital management initiatives. For India, the PM believes that future earnings growth momentum will be driven by increased formalisation of the domestic economy; and greater government spending and enhanced rural productivity due to targeted government spending. Furthermore, household s financial savings are expected to grow due to the formalisation of the economy. The PM expects these savings will largely be allocated to equities over the next few years due to current underinvestment in equities and prospects of better tax-adjusted returns relative to other asset classes. The projected inflow of funds should be supportive of the equity market. Standard & Poor s finally assigned an investment grade to Indonesia s sovereign credit rating. This should enable the inflows of pent up foreign investments into the country in due course. The PM sees this as a positive development for the country. The economy is gradually feeling the positive impact from past economic reforms. The current account balance and foreign currency reserves continue to improve, and the Finance Minister has fortified the country s fiscal position by planning a reasonable budget and strictly enforced tax reform initiatives. The PM believes the potential of the country and economy remain under-appreciated, and believes this market has a strong upside potential once the impact from the improvement in the economy trickles down to corporate earnings.

127 ASIAN SMALL CAP EQUITY FUND Investment Objective: The sub-fund aims to provide long-term capital growth for those investors who hold a long term investment view and are prepared to accept significant fluctuations in the value of their investments.the sub-fund s investment portfolio will be made on a diversified basis, for which its underlying securities will consist mainly of equity related investments and equities of smaller capitalization companies in the Asian and/or Pacific region. A proportion of the sub-fund may be invested in warrants, bonds and convertible bonds issued by, or in respect of, such companies. PERFORMANCE FROM 1 JULY 2016 TO 30 JUNE 2017* Asian Small Cap Equity Fund Class AA % Asian Small Cap Equity Fund Class AA (HKD) % Asian Small Cap Equity Fund Class I % MSCI Asia Pacific ex-japan Small Cap Index % PORTFOLIO REVIEW As experienced historically, one of the main catalysts for the sub-fund has been strong earnings results and positive earnings revisions. Thus far in 2017, the sub-fund s portfolio manager (PM) has seen robust performance of growth and earnings momentum, which underlies factors that characterise the subfund and is reflective of the improving Asian economic environment. Conversely, the latter half of 2016 witnessed the outperformance of value and underperformance of growth and small cap equities. During significant market declines, less liquid small cap equities typically underperform as occurred in Asia following the US presidential election in November, as investors particularly feared the potential adoption of trade policies that would be negative for Asia. Throughout the 12-month period, the subfund s performance benefitted from strong corporate earnings results, and positive earnings revisions from analysts. Stock selection was the largest positive contributor to outperformance, led by China, Indonesia, and South Korea. Although Malaysia was a small part of the portfolio, stock selection there contributed strongly. Overall, the sub-fund s overweight and stock selection in technology and consumer discretionary in 2017 was a significant positive contributor for the period under review. The sub-fund s Hong Kong-listed Chinese holdings generated very strong performance from the consumer discretionary, industrials, and information technology sectors. Several of the sub-fund s technology holdings have benefitted from various earnings drivers, including technology migration, dual cameras on smartphones, new customer additions, and improved product pricing. Near the end of 2016, the PM made a tactical change and increased the sub-fund s South Korean weighting. South Korea was the worst performing small cap market in Asia in 2016 due to some forced selling on the part of domestic institutions and higher valuations than the large cap companies. However, valuations at that time reached levels not seen in over a year. In the PM s meetings with companies, the PM identified an inflection point in earnings for Since then, flows have returned to the small cap Kosdaq names and earnings have continued to strengthen. The technology companies in that market are seeing a pull-in in orders from their local industry-leading companies, as demand for products including 3D NAND, DRAM, and AMOLED has surpassed expectations. The largest contributor to performance is one of the sub-fund s larger positions, a US-listed South Korean semiconductor manufacturer. Global capacity for its semiconductor foundry capacity is extremely tight, and gross margin and cash flow are markedly improving. Its advanced technology component supplied to the world s largest manufacturer of Organic Light-Emitting Diode (OLED) displays for smartphone brands will be a key driver for earnings in the second half of The leading botox producers in the market also performed strongly on the back of better-than-expected industry demand. * The performance return of the fund is calculated in U.S. dollar terms and includes dividends re-invested; whereas the index (or indices) is calculated in U.S. dollar terms and on total return basis. 125 MANULIFE GLOBAL FUND

128 ASIAN SMALL CAP EQUITY FUND This is the first year in seven where the sub-fund underperformed in Taiwan, primarily due to technology performance in the second half of In the latter part of 2016, investors took profit on several outperforming small cap equities in this market. However, a turnaround took place in the first half of 2017 with strong outperformance coming from both the materials and technology sectors, as well as certain non-technology sectors. The underweight and stock selection in Australia detracted from performance in the latter half of During this period, several small cap equities in that market experienced sharp price declines due to redemptions from domestic small cap funds as well as some manager changes at these funds. The subfund s holdings were not spared from these technical selling pressures. The sub-fund s performance in India also lagged the market. Several holdings were hit hard by demonetisation, particularly in consumer discretionary and financials, and trailed the market in the upturn. MARKET REVIEW Asia Pacific ex Japan small equities had a strong start during the period in review due to companies reporting mostly better-than-expected earnings during the third quarter reporting season. By the latter part of 2016, Asian markets reacted negatively to the strengthening dollar and higher bond yields post Donald Trump s victory. Investors became concerned that Trump s campaign promises would lead to inflation and a higher trajectory of Fed interest rate increases. There was also uncertainty regarding trade relations between US and the Asian economies. During the first half of 2017, strong positive sentiment buoyed the Asian markets due to the notable improvement in economic data across the region as well as on improved first quarter earnings. Foreign investor flows to regional equities picked up markedly. Despite the Fed hiking policy rates by 25bps each in December 2016, March 2017, and June 2017, the central bank maintained a dovish outlook on the tightening cycle. China s growth remained strong over the reported period, meeting or beating consensus estimates for the past six quarters. China s first and second quarter GDP grew by a faster-than-expected 6.9% yearon-year due to robust infrastructure spending and the rising property market. In June, MSCI announced the inclusion of the country s A-shares in their global equity indices starting in June 2018; it is a vote of confidence for China to further financial reforms and develop capital markets. Producer price index (PPI) rose from a 55-month deflation in September 2016 and recorded eight consecutive months of growth by May; this is supportive of pricing power returning to corporates, as experienced by a number of the Chinese industrial and material companies in the subfund. Hong Kong s central bank raised its policy rates thrice by 25bps each in line with the Fed s policy rate move. Retail sales rose from a 2-year long decline in March and remained in positive territory for three consecutive months in May driven by resilient local demand and improving inbound tourism. Taiwan s first quarter GDP growth registered at 2.6% year-on-year due to resilient domestic consumption and robust exports. Exports in May posted its eighth consecutive month of growth on the back of solid demand for machinery, integrated circuits, and base metals. South Korea first quarter GDP growth was higher than expected at 2.7% year-on-year (relative to consensus estimate of 2.6%) due to better construction investment. Political noise abated with the successful conclusion of the presidential election. Exports in May jumped 13.4% year-on-year, growing for a seventh consecutive month, driven by solid demand for electronics components. Southeast Asian economies posted some of the fastest growth rates in 2016 and during the first quarter of 2017, with a strong recovery in both manufacturing and exports. Indonesia s sovereign credit rating was upgraded by S&P in May by one notch (to BBB-), achieving full investment grade status among the major credit rating agencies. MANULIFE GLOBAL FUND 126

129 ASIAN SMALL CAP EQUITY FUND In India, the dominant victory of the ruling party in the most recent state elections was deemed a positive development due to strengthened policy continuity, as well as a bigger scope to push for more reforms and government spending. In May, goods and services tax (GST) rates were announced for most goods, where rates for several sectors were higher than expected; however, consumer staples were kept at the lowest tax bracket. In November, the government demonetised high-value currency notes (INR500 and INR1,000) to address black money and corruption. Australia s GDP in the first quarter grew 1.7% year-on-year, which was slower than the previous quarter s growth at 2.4% but better than market estimate of 1.6% given soft household spending and the drag in net trade. The Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) cut its benchmark rate by 25bps to 1.5% in August, as inflation remains well below its target range. OUTLOOK Following the strong performance of the Asian markets year to date, the PM expects some consolidation in the short-term. Nevertheless, the PM remains positive because several companies are reporting better-than-expected earnings, and flows continue returning to the region. The Asian region has seen improved earnings revisions every month for the past ten months, a situation not seen in the previous five years of earnings downgrades. The weaker US dollar provides a positive backdrop for the region, as does the export recovery and improvement in purchasing manager indices (PMIs) throughout the region. The PM s company visits in many cases indicate that this positive growth will sustain well into As a result, the PM will remain highly constructive on the region. 127 MANULIFE GLOBAL FUND

134 CHINA VALUE FUND Investment Objective: The sub-fund aims to achieve long-term capital growth through investments primarily in companies with substantial business interests in the Greater China Region (which includes the PRC, Hong Kong and Taiwan), which are listed or traded on the stock exchanges of Shanghai, Shenzhen, Hong Kong, Taipei or other overseas exchanges, and which are currently undervalued but which may have long-term growth potential. The Sub-Fund s investments will generally be in equity securities of its target companies, although it may also invest in convertible bonds and depository receipts issued by such companies, in all cases, within the limits of the investment and borrowing powers and restrictions contained in the Prospectus. Investments of the Sub-Fund may also include A-Shares and/or B-Shares listed on the Shanghai Securities Exchange and the Shenzhen Stock Exchange in Mainland China. The Sub-Fund is not investing at the A-Share market for the time being, but may invest in it with a maximum of 30% of its net asset value at a time that the Directors and Investment Manager determine. Prior notice will be given to the relevant investors and the name of the QFII will be disclosed should the Sub-Fund determine in the future to invest in the A-Share market. The Sub-Fund may also invest in fixed-income securities and hold cash on an ancillary basis, if determined to be appropriate by the Investment Manager. PERFORMANCE FROM 1 JULY 2016 TO 30 JUNE 2017* China Value Fund Class A % China Value Fund Class AA % FTSE All World Greater China Index % Hang Seng Index % Hang Seng Red Chips Index +9.81% Hang Seng H Shares Index % MSCI China Free Index % PORTFOLIO REVIEW During the year, the sub-fund has gained 25.3% while the FTSE Greater China Index increased by 27.9%, both in USD terms. Since its inception, the portfolio delivered a cumulative return of 988.8% as of end-june 2017, while the FTSE Greater China Index posted a cumulative return of 272.9% over the same period. The sub-fund s holdings in the financial, technology and consumer discretionary sectors were major performance contributors in the period. One of the top holdings in a giant Chinese internet company recorded strong performance, while the core position in a leading e-commerce company also contributed positively as the company announced a better-than-market revenue growth guidance for 2018 (45-49% year-on-year growth versus consensus 35%). On the flip side, the holding in the energy sector was the major detractor during the year. As oil prices retreated, the energy holding dragged performance amid concerns on its earnings recovery. The subfund s portfolio manager has maintained exposure in the company as its valuations are attractive. During the year, the sub-fund has trimmed positions in the industrial and financial sectors. Contrarily, the portfolio manager, seeing more values, switched to add positions in technology stocks in Taiwan and consumptions stocks, particularly in A shares, in light of the sustained good sales numbers. * The performance return of the fund is calculated in U.S. dollar terms and includes dividends re-invested; whereas the index (or indices) is calculated in U.S. dollar terms and on total return basis. MANULIFE GLOBAL FUND 132

135 CHINA VALUE FUND MARKET REVIEW Signs of confidence are returning to China in the year under review. The first-quarter macro data of 2017 continued to show that the world s second-largest economy is gaining momentum with benign inflation pressure. Activity in China s manufacturing sector picked up further in March 2017 with the official Purchasing Managers Index ( PMI ) rose for the second consecutive month to 51.8, the highest since April 2012, supported by China s increased efforts in providing fiscal stimulus which started in 2016, as well as improving domestic and export demand. A series of encouraging macro data signalled further stabilization in China s economy in the second quarter of The official manufacturing PMI stayed in expansionary territory in June for the 11th consecutive month while export surprised on the upside on the back of global trade recovery, rising 8.7% in May in USD terms. Meanwhile, China s retail sales grew 10.7% from a year earlier in May 2017, reflecting the continuous progress in China s shift towards a consumption-driven economy. At the policy front, the Beijing government has made steady progress in pushing ahead supply-side reforms, while stability was once again highlighted as a top policy priority for 2017 at the Politburo meeting. Positive messages were also delivered at the National People s Congress ( NPC ) in March Presenting the government work report at the NPC, Premier Li Keqiang noted that growth stability and currency stability are the top priorities for the year. Amid the transition from a pro-growth stance in 2016 to growth stability in 2017, China set its growth target for 2017 at a more reasonable level at 6.5% and the sub-fund s portfolio manager believes this is achievable. With the recent macro improvement, this has also created more room for policymakers to tackle financial excesses and overcapacity. Against this backdrop, China is expected to maintain a more prudent monetary policy and will focus on risk control measures, such as financial regulation strengthening and the speed up of supply-side reform. While deleveraging will constrain liquidity in the market, it is believed that these initiatives are positive to China over the long run. Robust fundamentals in the first half of 2017 highlighted the strength in China s economy, providing a window of opportunity for the policy makers to tackle deep-seated structural issues. In fact, such structural issues, including climbing debt levels and shadow banking, were cited as major reasons in Moody s downgrade of China and Hong Kong s sovereign credit ratings in late May In light of the government s policy bias tilts towards tightening to rein in leverage and financial risks, a modest moderation in growth is expected later this year. However, a sharp deceleration in growth is unlikely given a managed pace of tightening and the government s policy priority to maintain growth at 6.5% this year. MARKET OUTLOOK The Hong Kong and China markets turned in a strong rally year-to-date in 2017 on the back of recovering corporate earnings results. The recovery trend in earnings is evident as compared to an earning contraction of 13% in the fourth quarter of 2016, earnings growth of MSCI China Index companies picked up to 7% year-on-year during the first quarter of Meanwhile, with recovering profitability and margin expansion, consensus earnings-per-share (EPS) growth of the MSCI China Index 2 is estimated to reach 15% for the whole year of 2017, providing impetus for market performance during the year. From the perspective of capital flow, southbound investment s share in the daily turnover of Hong Kong s stockmarket has been increasing steadily since the fourth quarter last year. Now southbound turnover has exceeded 10% of the average daily turnover in Hong Kong. With increasing demand for overseas asset allocation from China s insurance companies, social security funds and mutual funds, southbound capitals are expected to play a larger role in Hong Kong s stockmarket going forward. Over the long haul, this will not only benefit H-share investors as China continues to open up its capital market, but the heightened liquidity will also reinforce Hong Kong s position as an Asian financial centre. 133 MANULIFE GLOBAL FUND

136 CHINA VALUE FUND Looking forward to the second half of the year, the sub-fund s portfolio manager remains constructive in Chinese equities despite the strong market performance in the first half and the possibility that economic data may soften after rounds of solid growth data since the start of the year. With that said, bottom-up stock selection is crucial to identify value companies with sustainable earnings. Among various sectors, the portfolio manager favours companies that will benefit from the consumption upgrade momentum in China, such as consumer discretionary and technology leaders. In light of the fast advancement in technology, the portfolio manager also favours leading technology companies which exhibit abilities to command more market share in the future. Although the 12-month forward price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of the MSCI China Index has normalized to 13.2 times (above 10-year average of 12.1 times), it is still trading at an attractive level relative to most emerging and developed markets. 1 Source: Bloomberg, CICC Research, Factset, MSCI.

PERFORMANCE FROM 1 JULY 2016 TO 30 JUNE 2017* Dragon Growth Fund Class A % Dragon Growth Fund Class AA (HKD) % MSCI Zhong Hua Index % PERFORMANCE FROM 14 DECEMBER 2016 TO 30 JUNE 2017 Dragon Growth Fund Class AA % PORTFOLIO REVIEW Strong stock selection in the Chinese information technology sector was a major performance contributor. One of the leading micro blogging platforms in China was the top contributor, after it reported stronger-than-expected earnings due to revenue growth on all business segments and a continuously expanding user base. Revenue guidance for the second quarter also came above consensus forecasts. The Chinese utilities sector contributed positively to performance, especially gas distribution companies, as the Government continues to push its environmental protection initiatives. The sub-fund s exposure to the Chinese materials space, especially those in the cement and steel businesses, contributed positively to performance given the Government s push and producers initiative to rationalise supply. Consolidation has been one of the sub-fund s key investment themes. The main detractors were stock selection in consumer discretionary, real estate, and energy. The subfund s exposure to the energy sector negatively impacted performance; oil prices were volatile as Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) and non-opec members decision to extend their production cut was offset by mounting concerns on weak demand and a supply glut. MARKET REVIEW The China and Hong Kong equity markets (the markets) had a strong start during the period in review. This was due to companies reporting mostly better-than-expected earnings during the third quarter reporting season, and as China s Producer Price Index (PPI) rose from a 55-month deflation in September and continued through May This was supportive of pricing power returning to corporates, as well as an improvement of the banking industry s asset quality. By the latter part of 2016, the markets reacted negatively to the strengthening dollar and higher bond yields post US President Donald Trump s victory, which raised concerns on the impact of his campaign platforms to inflation and the future path of the Fed hiking cycle, as well on future trade relations between the US and Asian economies. During the first half of 2017, the markets rallied on the back of notable improvements in economic data in China as well as on better-than-expected first quarter earnings and positive guidance, especially from the technology and internet related sectors. Market participants reaction was muted when Moody s downgraded China and Hong Kong s sovereign credit rating in May. By June, MSCI announced the inclusion of the country s A-shares in their global equity indices in two phases starting May 2018; it is a vote of confidence for China to further financial reforms and develop capital markets. Despite the Fed hiking policy rates thrice by 25 basis points (bps) each in December, March, and June to 1.25%, the markets remained resilient as the Fed maintained a dovish outlook on the tightening cycle. * The performance return of the fund is calculated in U.S. dollar terms and includes dividends re-invested; whereas the index (or indices) is calculated in U.S. dollar terms and on total return basis. 137 MANULIFE GLOBAL FUND

140 DRAGON GROWTH FUND OUTLOOK The sub-fund s portfolio manager (PM) remains constructive on China and Hong Kong equities despite the good year-to-date performance, as upward revisions on earnings are still stronger than expected. US and European macroeconomic data show resilience, while China continued to surprise investors with higher Purchasing Manager Index (PMI) figures and corporate earnings. The PM added exposure to the healthcare sector given expectations of a sales pickup driven by the potential new drugs from the tendering process. MANULIFE GLOBAL FUND 138

143 EMERGING EASTERN EUROPE FUND Investment Objective: The sub-fund aims to achieve capital growth through investment primarily in securities which are listed or traded on the stock exchanges of Central and Eastern European countries. It is intended that the sub-fund will initially be concentrating (although not necessarily exclusively) on securities listed or traded on stock exchanges in the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, Slovakia and Russia whilst such securities may also be listed in other exchanges as depository receipts or certificates, or in other forms of instruments. However, the sub-fund will seek to broaden its participation in other markets within the region as they develop. PERFORMANCE FROM 1 JULY 2016 TO 30 JUNE 2017* Emerging Eastern Europe Fund Class A % Emerging Eastern Europe Fund Class AA % MSCI Emerging Europe 10/40 Index % PORTFOLIO REVIEW The sub-fund generated a strong return over the 12-month period ending 30 June 2017, slightly ahead of underlying markets. This outperformance could be attributed to the sub-fund s exposure to Kazakhstan, not represented in its MSCI EM Europe 10/40 Index benchmark, as well as its stock selection in Russia. By contrast, an underweight exposure to Poland was a drag on performance. Over the period under review, the sub fund s exposure to Russia was reduced significantly in favour of a higher exposure to Kazakhstan and Poland. On a sector analysis, exposure to consumer staples and industrials fell as exposure to consumer discretionary and energy rose. Currently, the sub-fund s largest overweight exposure is in Turkey, closely followed by Kazakhstan, with exposure to Russia, Hungary and Greece significantly underweight. The consumer sectors are well represented within the portfolio, whilst exposure to energy and telecommunication services is underweight. MARKET REVIEW Share prices moved broadly and consistently higher across the stockmarkets of emerging eastern Europe over the 12-month period ending 30 June Gains were most pronounced in central Europe, with Poland and Hungary both performing strongly despite widely-held concerns over political developments. Frontier markets, such as Romania and Kazakhstan also performed well. The two major markets of Russia and Turkey generated more subdued net gains. There were few developments of note in Russia, by contrast Turkey endured a frenetic 12 months with share prices first falling sharply and then recovering even more strongly. The marked share price movements seen in Turkey came as a result of two significant events. First, an attempted coup by a section of the military that initially only narrowly failed to overthrow President Erdogan but which was then brutally crushed and followed by a prolonged purge of those thought by the government to be in sympathy with the insurgents; and second, a constitutional referendum that saw the country voting to make the office of president an executive, rather than a largely ceremonial, one. Both developments however served to underline the extent to which Recep Tayyip Erdogan, the president of Turkey, has centralised power around himself in an increasingly autocratic fashion. July s coup came as something of a shock and financial markets reacted negatively to both the coup itself and the subsequent crackdown; although by no means unusual in an historical context, markets had supposed that Turkey had outgrown its past and could now be considered alongside more normal western democracies. This view was however superseded by the realization that with President Erdogan now in firm control, and with no elections on the horizon, political uncertainty had all but disappeared and that the government could now get on with the job of running the country and promoting economic growth. * The performance return of the fund is calculated in U.S. dollar terms and includes dividends re-invested; whereas the index (or indices) is calculated in U.S. dollar terms and on total return basis. 141 MANULIFE GLOBAL FUND

144 EMERGING EASTERN EUROPE FUND Russian share prices were supported by a gradual improvement in economic activity with GDP returning to growth after a prolonged recession. The strength of the rouble was a further positive, with high real interest rates attracting inflows into the currency; the central bank of Russia has maintained interest rates at comparatively high levels whilst inflation has fallen back. Movements in the oil price had little impact on the rouble though they did provide a boost to share prices around the turn of the year, with Russia joining OPEC members in agreeing to limit production in order to help clear inventories and thus support the oil price. The high value of the rouble relative to oil tended to benefit consumer-related stocks, especially those with an import focus, though it was a negative for commodity companies whose revenues are largely in US dollars but costs predominantly in roubles. OUTLOOK Looking forward, the current stable market conditions can be expected to continue. The increase in capital markets activity seen recently is evidence of this. Against this backdrop, the bottom-up stockpicking approach of the sub-fund s managers is well-placed to identify the best opportunities available as and when they appear. The outlook for Russia remains positive, although possibly not quite to the same extent as in The arrival of Trump in the White House appears to be heralding a far more pro-russia stance in US politics, oil prices are unlikely to weaken given production cuts and newly found discipline amongst OPEC and some non-opec producers and valuations for the market overall continue to be at a discount to most other emerging markets. Prospects for Turkey are now more encouraging, as political considerations fade from view and become less important, the government can concentrate its energy on reinvigorating the economy. And there are already early signs that this is beginning to happen. Elsewhere in the region, political developments in both Poland and Hungary continue to raise concerns with both seen as increasingly out of step with the more liberal-minded democracies of western Europe. This did not however prevent the very strong stockmarket performance of the last 12 months, and further gains may be possible. MANULIFE GLOBAL FUND 142

148 EUROPEAN GROWTH FUND Investment Objective: The objective of this sub-fund is to achieve capital growth from a diversified portfolio of equities in mainly larger companies quoted on stock markets in Europe (including in the United Kingdom), or companies that have substantial business interests in Europe. The main emphasis of the investment strategy of the sub-fund is on the assessment and selection of individual stocks within the European markets. PERFORMANCE FROM 1 JULY 2016 TO 30 JUNE 2017* European Growth Fund Class A % European Growth Fund Class AA % European Growth Fund Class I % European Growth Fund Class I % MSCI Europe Index % PORTFOLIO REVIEW From an individual securities perspective, an information technology holding contributed to the sub-fund s performance. The UK company s shares increased in response to an acquisition offer from a Japanese firm. A UK engineering consulting services company also contributed to the sub-fund s performance after it received a takeover bid from a Canadian competitor at a premium to the undisturbed share price (i.e. the last share price before takeover talks began). Most of the sub-fund s significant detractors from performance, including telecommunications services and industrials companies, had considerable exposure to the UK. One firm in the aerospace industry suffered from various management errors that eliminated significant shareholder value, while a telecommunications services holding company lost some profitable public contracts and uncovered accounting irregularities in its Italian division. The sub-fund s portfolio manager (PM) increased the sub-fund s positions in two materials holdings after stress-testing the free cash flow (FCF) generation of the mining companies iron ore assets. The PM s financial models indicated that under depressed long-term commodity price assumptions, these miners still trade on very attractive FCF yields. Following significant unproductive capital investment over the past decade and the subsequent related decline in commodity prices, the PM believes there has been a significant change in the way the companies current management teams view capital allocation and maximising shareholder value. The PM believes these businesses, if run prudently, should be capable of sustaining large and growing dividends. MARKET REVIEW European markets performed strongly over the past 12 months, driven by a narrowing of the deep valuation discount to US equities and moderating political risk. The euro increased by 7% and the British pound increased by 3% in the first half of 2017, driven by the improving performance of the European economy relative to North America and the change in expectations over central bank policy. The euro also benefited after the pro-european candidate Emmanuel Macron won by a wide margin in the second round of the French presidential election. Currency strength accounted for most of the equity gains over the year. The UK was the worst-performing major European market over the 12 months following the country s surprise vote to exit the EU (known as Brexit ). The British pound fell sharply in response to the UK s vote in late June 2016, with currency moves accounting for much of the underperformance of UK equities. The best-performing sector was financials, which recovered as investors no longer priced in a deflationary environment. The materials sector was strong as the iron ore price rebounded, driven by buoyant emerging market demand and the closure of unprofitable Chinese mines. This also helped the industrials sector perform well, as companies in this sector derive a large part of their revenue from selling equipment to the mining industries and emerging markets. The energy sector lagged on data showing US oil inventories were nearing record levels and on the resumption of North American shale oil production, which has created a glut of supply. * The performance return of the fund is calculated in U.S. dollar terms and includes dividends re-invested; whereas the index (or indices) is calculated in U.S. dollar terms and on total return basis. MANULIFE GLOBAL FUND 146

149 EUROPEAN GROWTH FUND OUTLOOK The last 12 months have seen two distinct rotations in European equities brought about by changes in the inflationary outlook. The first six months was characterised by rising inflation expectations and rising interest rates, while the second six months saw a distinct lapse back into deflationary expectations. The latter rotation was less positive for the sub-fund as the rotation into stocks with high valuation and low FCF yield did not suit the PM s investment style. The outlook is for interest rates to rise as global quantitative easing fades and central banks allow rates and yield curves to normalise. The PM believes the subdued growth outlook, low FCF yields, and negative exposure to tightening monetary policy pose major risks to the continued outperformance of large-capitalisation quality stocks. The PM believes that oil majors, miners, and financials sector stocks offer more attractive returns given their positive correlation to a reflationary environment and high-single-digit FCF yields. UK equities also appear to offer interesting investment opportunities, as they are trading on valuations that factor in a prolonged recession. While such an eventuality cannot be ruled out, UK GDP has held up surprisingly well, and many UK-listed names have globally diversified businesses that the PM believes can succeed regardless of fluctuations in the UK economy. The PM remains committed to buying good companies with enduring cash flows that trade at a marked discount to their long-term FCF generation. Many of the companies that did well this year have failed the PM s investment criteria based on cash flow valuation grounds. Provided the PM s cash flow projections are suitably cautious, the deeply discounted businesses owned in the sub-fund should exceed market returns for value-conscious, patient investors. 147 MANULIFE GLOBAL FUND

152 GLOBAL CONTRARIAN FUND Investment Objective: The sub-fund aims to generate long-term returns which exceed those of broad market indexes, such as the MSCI World Index and the S&P 500 Index, by investing in overlooked and misunderstood companies through investing primarily in securities of U.S. issuers, and those of issuers in countries around the world including, but not limited to, common stocks, REITs and similar liquid equity equivalents. The expression overlooked and misunderstood companies as used herein may refer generally to specific companies which may be temporarily out-of-favour with or unattractive to investors (for whatever reason) and could, therefore, present value opportunities to be exploited. These companies may also include companies going through corporate restructuring, bankruptcy, spin-outs or industry consolidation. It may also include taking advantage of opportunities which present themselves in the markets arising from short-term irrationality in prices or psychological biases of market participants as demonstrated by some of the principles of behavioural finance.

Individual contributors included two financials companies, whose share prices rose as the sector responded favourably to the US election results and the Fed raising interest rates. A healthcare sector holding also contributed after reporting earnings ahead of consensus expectations, with a strong contribution from its personal health segment. Stock selection in the consumer discretionary sector and an overweight position in the consumer staples sector detracted from performance. Individual detractors included a retailer that reported earnings below analyst estimates, as deflation had a negative impact on the company s US grocery stores, and as investors reacted negatively to various other incidents. These include the acquisition of Whole Foods by Amazon.com; a tobacco company whose shares suffered after reported earnings showed weaker sales momentum while a stronger local currency negatively affected overseas earnings; and an automotive parts retailer that reported earnings and comparable-store sales below expectations (though management expects higher productivity savings). MARKET REVIEW Global equity markets significantly advanced over the period due to investor optimism about the outcome of the US elections and an improving global economic backdrop. Emerging markets was the best-performing region as earnings expectations were raised and the economic backdrop improved. The Fed raised interest rates in multiple meetings, while the European Central Bank (ECB) kept its monetary policy steady. Energy was one of the worst-performing sectors due to volatility in the price of oil, stemming from increased global supply. Financials was the best-performing sector, specifically in the fourth quarter of 2016, as the prospects for earnings improvement increased. * The performance return of the fund is calculated in U.S. dollar terms and includes dividends re-invested; whereas the index (or indices) is calculated in U.S. dollar terms and on total return basis. MANULIFE GLOBAL FUND 150

153 GLOBAL CONTRARIAN FUND OUTLOOK The sub-fund s portfolio manager (PM) believes global markets should continue to fare well in Key indices continued to rise in the second quarter, with international markets outperforming the US. The US has struggled on a relative basis as the market questions the new administration s ability to implement its economic agenda. In Europe, investor sentiment remains reasonably positive and markets welcomed the outcome of France s presidential elections. However, most price-earnings ratios for global equities remain higher than historical averages. Comparable price-earnings ratios have not been seen since the early 2000s. Furthermore, debt levels have risen, even as profit margins appear to be near peak levels. This is cause for concern because current valuations have priced-in strong earnings growth a perspective that the PM believes might be somewhat optimistic. Valuation concerns aside, the PM believes there are additional macroeconomic issues that investors should focus on. Deflation continues to be a risk, as does continued political uncertainty not just in the US, but also in relation to upcoming German and Italian elections and to Brexit negotiations. That said, political risks in the eurozone appear to have subsided. This means the PM sees it as less likely for the euro to fall sharply from concerns over cohesion of euro-area states. Against this background of renewed stability, the PM has removed the sub-fund s currency hedges. A sense of unease remains, however, over North Korea s nuclear situation. Markets appear to currently be in a valuation-rich environment. Against this backdrop, the PM will focus on companies that have enduring businesses; strong management teams with solid track records of effective capital allocation; strong balance sheets; and sustainable free cash flow. The PM continues to view the US financials sector positively, while remaining cautious of European firms within the sector. The PM also continues to favour sustainable, quality franchises within the consumer staples sector. In the PM s view, the biggest potential market risks stem from high global valuations and high debt levels. Despite significant efforts by central banks to kickstart economies with an injection of liquidity, inflation remains subdued. Some measures of inflation expectations have even declined to levels below those experienced during previous periods of quantitative easing. Despite this, the Fed raised rates for the second time in three months. The PM believes deflation risks remain and are not being priced-in by the market this contributes to concerns about higher debt levels. The PM maintains a negative view of the utilities sector due to high valuations, which are a result of low interest rates, though the PM also notes the sector is, relatively speaking, no more expensive than the broader market. 151 MANULIFE GLOBAL FUND

156 GLOBAL EQUITY FUND Investment Objective: The sub-fund aims to achieve capital growth from a balanced portfolio of international securities. The sub-fund is designed as a relatively lower risk way of participating in world stockmarkets and offers an alternative to the other, more aggressive, regional sub-funds. PERFORMANCE FROM 1 JULY 2016 TO 30 JUNE 2017* Global Equity Fund Class A % Global Equity Fund Class AA % MSCI World Index % PORTFOLIO REVIEW Underweight positions in the energy and utilities sectors contributed to the sub-fund s performance. Individual contributors included two financials companies, whose share prices rose as the sector responded favourably to the US election results and the Fed raising interest rates. A healthcare sector holding also contributed after reporting earnings ahead of consensus expectations, with a strong contribution from its personal health segment. Stock selection in the consumer discretionary sector and an overweight position in the consumer staples sector detracted from performance. Individual detractors included a retailer that reported earnings below analyst estimates as deflation negatively impacted the company s US grocery stores, and as investors reacted negatively to various occurrences. These include the acquisition of Whole Foods by Amazon.com; a tobacco company whose shares suffered after reported earnings showed weaker sales momentum while a stronger local currency negatively affected overseas earnings; and an automotive parts retailer that reported earnings and comparable-store sales below expectations (though management expects higher productivity savings). MARKET REVIEW Global equity markets significantly advanced over the period due to investor optimism about the outcome of the US elections and an improving global economic backdrop. Emerging markets was the best-performing region as earnings expectations were raised and the economic backdrop improved. The Fed raised interest rates in multiple meetings, while the European Central Bank (ECB) kept its monetary policy steady. Energy was one of the worst-performing sectors due to the volatility in the price of oil, stemming from increased global supply. Financials was the best-performing sector, specifically in the fourth quarter of 2016, as the prospects for earnings improvement increased. * The performance return of the fund is calculated in U.S. dollar terms and includes dividends re-invested; whereas the index (or indices) is calculated in U.S. dollar terms and on total return basis. MANULIFE GLOBAL FUND 154

157 GLOBAL EQUITY FUND OUTLOOK The sub-fund s portfolio manager (PM) believes global markets should continue to fare well in Key indices continued to rise in the second quarter, with international markets outperforming the US. The US has struggled on a relative basis as the market questions the new administration s ability to implement its economic agenda. In Europe, investor sentiment remains reasonably positive and markets welcomed the outcome of France s presidential elections. However, most price-earnings ratios for global equities remain higher than historical averages. Comparable price-earnings ratios have not been seen since the early 2000s. Furthermore, debt levels have risen, even as profit margins appear to be near peak levels. This is cause for concern because current valuations have priced-in strong earnings growth a perspective that the PM believes might be somewhat optimistic. Valuation concerns aside, there appear to be more macroeconomic issues that investors should focus on. Deflation continues to be a risk, as does continued political uncertainty not just in the US, but also in relation to upcoming German and Italian elections and to Brexit negotiations. That said, the PM believes political risks in the eurozone have subsided. This means the PM sees it as less likely for the euro to fall sharply from concerns over cohesion of euro-area states. Against this background of renewed stability, the sub-fund s currency hedges have been removed. A sense of unease remains, however, over North Korea s nuclear situation. The PM believes markets are currently in a valuation-rich environment. Against this backdrop, the PM will focus on companies that have enduring businesses; strong management teams with solid track records of effective capital allocation; strong balance sheets; and sustainable free cash flow. The PM continues to view the US financials sector positively, although the PM remains cautious of European firms within the sector. The PM also continues to favour sustainable, quality franchises within the consumer staples sector.

161 GLOBAL PROPERTY FUND Investment Objective: The sub-fund is an equity fund which is primarily designed to provide medium to long term capital growth with the secondary goal of generating income. The sub-fund is suitable for those who hold a long term investment view and who are prepared to accept significant fluctuations in the value of their investments in order to achieve long term returns. It is intended that the investments will be made on a diversified basis. The underlying investment portfolio will mainly consist of real estate securities, primarily REITs of U.S. and non-u.s. companies. The sub-fund may invest in companies which derive a significant portion of their earnings from the development or management of real estate situated in the U.S. and non-u.s. countries. The investment instruments of the portfolio include, but not limited to, North American REITs (in the U.S. and Canada), non-u.s. REITs, real estate company equities, bonds (graded as low as BB), short-term securities, equity securities of non-real estate securities and deposits. The underlying REITs may not necessarily be authorized by the SFC in Hong Kong and the dividend policy/payout policy of the sub-fund is not representative of the dividend policy/payout policy of the underlying REITs. The Sub-Fund may also invest in bonds of any maturity rated at BB grades and unrated bond equivalents. If the Investment Manager so determines, it may also temporarily invest in investment grade shortterm securities and/or cash, and non-u.s. securities including sponsored and unsponsored American Depository Receipts. PERFORMANCE FROM 1 JULY 2016 TO 30 JUNE 2017* Global Property Fund Class AA +0.56% Global Property Fund Class AA (HKD) +0.55% Global Property Fund Class I % S&P Developed Property Total Return Index +2.59% PORTFOLIO REVIEW Stock selection in the US, Japan, and Ireland contributed positively to the sub-fund s performance. In the US, the sub-fund s overweight positions in the industrials sector and the data centre and lodging sub-sectors, as well as its underweight positions in the healthcare sector and self-storage sub-sector, contributed to performance. The sub-fund s underweight exposure to Japan, particularly to Japanese real estate investment trusts (REIT), also contributed, as did its overweight exposure to Ireland and Norway. Individual contributors included an Ireland-based residential REIT, a Norway-based real estate company, and a US industrial REIT. The Irish REIT reported strong financial results as a lack of supply in the Irish residential market led to strong operating metrics occupancy rates remained high and rents continued to increase. The market has struggled to increase supply to meet increasing demand as the Irish economy has been relatively strong. The Norwegian firm reported solid financial results, driven by an improved leasing environment throughout the year. The recovery in energy prices later in the period also supported the company as the energy sector is a significant part of Norway s economy. Furthermore, the company benefited from a lack of new supply in Oslo, where it has significant exposure. The US REIT generated strong financial results driven by strong demand for industrial assets in Southern California, and a lack of new supply led to strong rents and high occupancy rates. The company benefited from significant accretive acquisitions and continued to optimise its current portfolio of assets. The sub-fund s underweight exposure to Singapore and Europe, particularly to Spain, Sweden and Switzerland, detracted from performance. Stock selection in Australia, Canada, and Hong Kong also detracted. Individual detractors included various US retail REITs. Sluggish retail sales resulted in an increase in store closures and raised concerns that rental growth may be less likely, and that vacancy rates may begin to rise. This also increased concerns that anchor tenants, such as Sears and Macy s, may need to close more stores to remain profitable and that the retail landscape in the US is changing. This may hamper industry fundamentals in the near term. Another US retail REIT detracted from performance, as disappointing financial results highlighted weakening operating metrics that resulted * The performance return of the fund is calculated in U.S. dollar terms and includes dividends re-invested; whereas the index (or indices) is calculated in U.S. dollar terms and on total return basis. 159 MANULIFE GLOBAL FUND

162 GLOBAL PROPERTY FUND in management being replaced. A Canadian hotel REIT also detracted, as it was negatively affected by concerns about lodging fundamentals in its major markets, which may remain weak as energy prices remain low. The company raised equity through a right offering, which also affected the stock s performance. The sub-fund maintained underweight exposure to Europe and Japan and overweight exposure to the US. The sub-fund s underweight exposure to European property companies stems from an overall weaker economic growth outlook and less attractive valuations compared with other regions. Within Europe, the sub-fund s portfolio manager favours the Nordic, Irish and German real estate markets. The sub-fund s overweight exposure to the US is the result of stronger property fundamentals and a more positive outlook on economic growth. MARKET REVIEW The global real estate sector posted positive returns during the period but underperformed broader global equity markets. Interest rates in the US rose significantly, with most of the increase occurring after the US presidential elections, as the outcome took markets by surprise. Due to the rapid increase in global interest rates, other yield-oriented investments such as real estate declined, leading to their underperformance of broader global equities markets. During the first half of the period, economic growth globally and in the US remained slow, with signs of gradual improvement in the US. In attempts to stimulate the economy, major central banks maintained their monetary easing biases as inflation remained low. In the US, economic data prompted the Fed to continue increasing its benchmark rate, which it did three times during the period. Sentiment in the US improved amid optimism that the administration s pro-growth policies will be enacted. However, expectations declined as it appeared that the administration s ability to enact such policies could take longer than anticipated given recent challenges in passing major legislation. In the latter half of the period, economic data in Europe showed signs of improvement, which led to discussion from the European Central Bank (ECB) about reducing its easing measures. The process of the UK s exit from the EU (known as Brexit ) officially started with the UK invoking Article 50, which was widely anticipated by the markets. European election results in France and the Netherlands also reduced concerns about rising populism in Europe. OUTLOOK The sub-fund s portfolio managers (PM) outlook for the real estate sector remains positive, as economic growth should encourage major central banks to maintain a balanced approach toward interest rates. Recent improvements in Europe have shifted some discussion toward a possible withdrawal of easing measures. However, inflation remains relatively low, and the PM expects interest rates to remain lower over the near term to ensure that the improvement in economic conditions is sustainable. In the US, optimism about economic growth remains high as many of the US administration s potential policies are supportive of growth. However, the pace of further interest rate hikes in the US has raised concerns that may weigh on the real estate sector over the short term. The PM expects that the sector will benefit from an improved economic outlook as companies begin to adjust to newly implemented policies. In Europe, the PM believes ongoing negotiations between the UK and the EU will keep both the Bank of England and the ECB on alert, as final agreements between the two parties have not been reached. The sector s valuation remains attractive as property companies in many regions continue to trade at discounts to their respective net asset values. Despite recent increases, interest rates remain near historically low levels. In the current environment, the PM believes the sector represents an attractive opportunity for investors who are income-oriented or risk-averse. The PM also believes interest from institutional investors may help provide a floor on valuations. Real estate fundamentals remain stable or are improving in most markets as supply remains relatively low. The PM believes expectations for improving economic conditions will continue to support the sector given the supply picture, which should lead to higher occupancy rates and rents. Higher interest rates should not be considered negative for real estate, in the PM s view, if rates are moving higher because of stronger economic growth. The PM believes increased demand for properties and higher rents should alleviate the impact of higher rates. It is also likely that property values could be driven by the lack of supply while demand for quality assets remains strong. The sector continues to offer an attractive dividend yield relative to other yield securities. MANULIFE GLOBAL FUND 160

166 GLOBAL RESOURCES FUND Investment Objective: The sub-fund has, as its primary objective, the provision of long term capital growth for those who hold a long term investment view and who are prepared to accept significant fluctuations in the value of their investments in order to achieve long term returns. It is intended that the investments will be made on a diversified basis. The underlying investment portfolio will mainly consist of equity-related investments and equities of companies involved in global resources such as gas, oil, coffee, sugar and related industries throughout the world and which are listed on any stock exchange. The sub-fund may invest in companies which derive a significant portion of their earnings from business activities in global resources sectors. The remaining assets of the sub-fund may include bonds, deposits and other investments. PERFORMANCE FROM 1 JULY 2016 TO 30 JUNE 2017* Global Resources Fund Class AA -1.92% Global Resources Fund Class l3-0.16% Global Resources Customized Index** +0.00% PORTFOLIO REVIEW Security selection within the metals and mining sub-industry contributed to the sub-fund s performance. Higher exploration and production exposure in the energy component of the portfolio detracted from performance due to the sub-industry s declines. MARKET REVIEW The last 12 months proved to be a volatile period in resource markets, as recovery from the cyclical lows of early 2016 met renewed challenges near the end of the year. Softness in precious metals and energy markets both contributed to declines within the sub-fund and resource markets overall. After experiencing strong returns during the first half of 2016, energy and materials markets parted ways during the latter half of the year, with higher oil and natural gas prices pushing the former higher while softer prices for gold and other precious metals caused difficulties for the latter. In energy, oil prices experienced strong and steady gains as investors took stock of the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) agreement in November to cut production starting in After more than two years of low prices that overstretched many budgets and spurred unrest in some countries, OPEC and non-opec producers finally reached their first deal since 2001 to curtail oil output jointly and ease a global supply glut. In gold and precious metals, results were less favourable during the first half of the period. After reaching a 2-year high of US$1,366 per ounce by July, gold prices retreated to a recent low of US$1,125 per ounce by mid-december. The more bearish investor sentiment towards gold was also evident in exchange traded fund (ETF) holdings, which investors continued to liquidate. Gold producers posted very strong, double-digit returns during the first and second quarters of 2016 as the gold price rose and recovery ensued. However, returns were negative during the last two quarters of the year, with the stronger US dollar and rising equity markets following the US elections creating even greater challenges for the metal s price. Elsewhere in mining, investments in the diversified metals and mining sub-industry contributed as higher prices for copper, nickel, zinc and other materials helped support higher valuations. The commodity price response to China s recent stimulus spending and potential infrastructure spending in the US was swift and strong and, in some cases, not fully supported by underlying fundamentals, as evidenced by softness in December. The second half of the period proved challenging for resource markets, however. North American and global oil prices tested lows close to US$40 per barrel near the end of the period, and base and precious metals prices (other than copper) experienced rollovers following their strong increases in late * The performance return of the fund is calculated in US dollar terms and includes dividends re-invested; whereas the index (or indices) is calculated in US dollar terms and on total return basis. ** Customized by Amundi S.A., the new provider of the benchmark following a company restructuring detailed in Shareholder Notice dated 17 December The benchmark comprises of 1/3 MSCI World Energy, 1/3 MSCI World Materials and 1/3 FTSE Gold Mines. MANULIFE GLOBAL FUND 164

167 GLOBAL RESOURCES FUND In the energy sector, the MSCI World Energy Index experienced a second consecutive quarter of declines, mirroring the drop in crude oil prices, where global (Brent) and North American (West Texas Intermediate) declined 9% during the most recent quarter and by roughly 14% year-to-date. The primary driver of the negative drift in oil prices was the deterioration in the commercial crude oil inventory trend, which damaged sentiment and contributed to the declines experienced during the most recent quarter. Oil prices tested year-to-date lows of US$42 per barrel by the third week of June before recovering to the US$46 per barrel level by month-end following a more optimistic view of North American and global demand. Elevated inventory levels continued to be a concern, as the market expected production cuts by OPEC to have had a more material impact in the first half of In the materials sector, strong gains made in the paper and forest products as well as containers and packaging industries were overshadowed by contributions from metals & mining, given the latter s larger weight inside the portfolio. Gold prices recovered from one-year lows of US$1,125 per ounce in December and helped provide a much-needed boost to investments in the precious metals sub-sector during the latter half of the period, rising 15% on a peak-to-trough basis, aided by a softening US dollar that had rolled over during most of However, after reaching a year-to-date high close to US$1,300 per ounce in June, prices retreated 2% in the final month to finish the period slightly lower (down 6%) as investors began discounting the likelihood of major central banks (the Fed, European Central Bank, Bank of England) attempting to navigate a careful reduction in their stimulus policies soon. Outside precious metals, investments in the diversified metals and mining sub-sector were relatively flat during the latter half of the period, with investments in the copper sector rising in response to a late recovery. While prices for economic bellwether copper recovered from short-term softness, others experienced net year-to-date declines. Nickel prices declined 11% following softening demand for stainless steel and relaxation of export rules in Indonesia. Iron ore prices were also under pressure, declining from a recent high of US$89 per tonne to a US$50-55 per tonne range as Chinese steel restocking rolled over. Relatedly, metallurgical coal prices also softened. After two short-term price increases above US$300 per tonne over the last 12 months due to supply disruptions during a period of strong Chinese demand for steel fabrication, prices settled close to the US$145 per tonne range following a normalisation of supply, primarily from Australia. While various supply and demand fundamentals came together to affect various metals prices, the overall sentiment was not as favorable as it was going into 2017 as investors became increasingly cautious about a possible slowdown in China and reduced expectations of the US administration s ability to deliver on promises for increased infrastructure spending and reduced corporate tax rates. OUTLOOK The sub-fund s portfolio manager (PM) believes the global oil supply/demand balance should move into a stronger position through the summer, lessening the overhang of elevated inventory levels. OPEC s decision to extend its output cut into 2018 should support the overall balance. However, at oil prices above US$45 barrel, the US shale producers will likely attempt to increase production, providing a cap on oil prices until balance sheets limit their growth. Outside of the energy sector, declining inventory levels for zinc, aluminium, and others continue to support an improving story for diversified miners the sector has benefited from an increase in commodity prices brought on by a potentially resurgent US and policy actions in China; a broadening out of the global industry recovery; and constrained supply. In precious metals, uncertainty on the geopolitical front in the US and possibly Europe could provide some short-term support for gold prices, benefiting as confidence in the US dollar and other currencies wanes. However, investment demand could be dampened due to two key factors: at least one more interest rate increase is expected in the US before the end of the year, and other central banks could be looking to reduce unconventional monetary stimulus levels soon. Although share prices in the resource sector may experience continued volatility, supply (production) has responded to the lower price environment. As investments in future production initiatives are curtailed across most commodities, there is a risk of insufficient investment for future supply needs. In the short term, the PM continues to find opportunities to invest in quality companies at attractive valuations. Over the longer term, the PM believes that demand for commodities may increase as emerging markets and developed economies continue to grow. 165 MANULIFE GLOBAL FUND

170 GREATER CHINA OPPORTUNITIES FUND Investment Objective: The sub-fund aims to achieve long-term capital growth. The sub-fund will invest in companies in the Greater China Region including, but not exclusively in, listed equities of companies in Hong Kong, Taiwan, Shanghai and Shenzhen markets or which derive, or which are expected to derive, a significant proportion of their revenue from goods produced or sold, or investments made or services performed, in Mainland China. PERFORMANCE FROM 1 JULY 2016 TO 30 JUNE 2017* Greater China Opportunities Fund Class AA % Greater China Opportunities Fund Class I % MSCI AC Golden Dragon Index % PORTFOLIO REVIEW Stock selection and the underweight in Hong Kong contributed positively to performance. One stock that performed well was a Macau casino operator that rallied on the back of the Macau gaming sector s healthy gross gaming revenue growth. Several of the sub-fund s holdings in Chinese information technology companies were also key contributors to performance. The top contributor was one of the leading micro blogging platforms in China that reported stronger-than-expected earnings due to revenue growth on all business segments, and a continuously expanding user base. Revenue guidance for the second quarter also came above consensus forecasts. The Chinese utilities sector contributed positively to performance, especially gas distribution companies, as the Government continues to push its environmental protection initiatives. Stock selection in Taiwan negatively impacted performance. The main detractor was a Taiwanese automotive components manufacturer holding that specialises in sensors and electronic car parts after it reported weak October sales. The sub-fund s exposure to the energy sector negatively impacted performance; oil prices were volatile as Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) and non-opec members decision to extend their production cut was offset by mounting concerns on weak demand and a supply glut. However, this was partly offset by stock selection in Taiwanese consumer staples and the underweight in Taiwanese telecoms. MARKET REVIEW The Greater China equity markets (the markets) had a strong start during the period in review due to companies reporting mostly better-than-expected earnings during the third quarter reporting season, and as China s Producer Price Index (PPI) rose from a 55-month deflation in September and continued through May This was supportive of pricing power returning to corporates, as well as an improvement of the banking industry s asset quality. By the latter part of 2016, the markets reacted negatively to the strengthening dollar and higher bond yields post US President Donald Trump s victory. This raised concerns on the impact of his campaign platforms to inflation and the future path of the Fed s hiking cycle, as well on the future trade relations between the US and the Asian economies. During the first half of 2017, the markets rallied on the back of notable improvements in economic data in China as well as on better-than-expected first quarter earnings and positive guidance (especially from technology and internet related sectors). Taiwan s exports expanded for eight consecutive months in May given solid demand for high tech gadgets and components, which is supportive of the exportoriented economy. Market participants reaction was muted when Moody s downgraded China and Hong Kong s sovereign credit rating in May. By June, MSCI announced the inclusion of the country s A-shares in their global equity indices in two phases starting May 2018; it is a vote of confidence for China to further financial reforms and develop capital markets. Despite the Fed hiking policy rates thrice by 25 basis points (bps) each in December, March, and June to 1.25%, the markets remained resilient as the Fed maintained a dovish outlook on the tightening cycle. * The performance return of the fund is calculated in U.S. dollar terms and includes dividends re-invested; whereas the index (or indices) is calculated in U.S. dollar terms and on total return basis. MANULIFE GLOBAL FUND 168

171 GREATER CHINA OPPORTUNITIES FUND OUTLOOK The sub-fund s portfolio manager (PM) remains constructive on the Greater China equity markets despite the good year-to-date performance, as upward revisions on earnings are still stronger than expected. In China, the PM added exposure to the healthcare sector given expectations of a sales pickup driven by the potential new drugs from the tendering process. In Taiwan, the PM expects a super product cycle to stem from the production of the Organic Light- Emitting Diode-based (OLED-based) iphone 8, with the launch date in September. The PM remains positive on electronic component companies that will benefit from new features in smartphones such as dual cameras and 3D sensing for facial recognition. The PM also likes auto parts companies that are seeing stronger orders from Tesla for its upcoming new car model. 169 MANULIFE GLOBAL FUND

PERFORMANCE FROM 1 JULY 2016 TO 30 JUNE 2017* Healthcare Fund Class AA +8.10% MSCI World/Health Care Index +9.83% PORTFOLIO REVIEW Contributors to the sub-fund s performance include a research and laboratory products manufacturer that has been executing well. However, the sub-fund s portfolio manager (PM) believes that most of the outperformance was a result of the company approaching an inflection point in margins beginning in The company s management has been vocal about this, which has attracted new investors. The PM still thinks the stock is inexpensive compared to its competitors. Furthermore, 2018 is only the first year of the company s multi-year margin expansion ramp. A biopharmaceutical company contributed due to its previously depressed valuation and the successful launch of its new drug. The PM believes the company s stock is at such an attractive valuation that the sub-fund is not paying much for the company s product pipeline at this point. A drug manufacturer holding detracted from performance due to the company s inability to turn around the business. The PM believes the stock is attractive at the current level with solid core business franchises. The company is actively seeking new management. A pharmacy healthcare services holding detracted given its loss of market share to its competitors in both the pharmacy benefit management and retail pharmacy businesses. The PM has since trimmed the sub-fund s position in the company. MARKET REVIEW The healthcare sector underperformed the broader equity market due to political uncertainty. The MSCI World (Net) Total Return Index returned 18.20%, while the MSCI World Health Care Total Return Index returned 10.40%. The medical device and equipment sub-sector had the strongest return, while the pharmaceutical sub-sector had the weakest. OUTLOOK The market previously had been volatile due to political pressure. The PM had stated that the political pressure was more noise than actual policy direction, and the market has since proved that. With the latest version of the US health bill favourable to the industry, the sector continues to recover. Increased pricing pressure from private payers on biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries, however, can still be observed. In response to this trend, the PM has picked companies that focus on research and development and have truly meaningful pipelines. Also, many truly innovative companies stocks suffered along with the broader sector. The PM believes the current environment represents an attractive entry point for many high-quality companies. * The performance return of the fund is calculated in U.S. dollar terms and includes dividends re-invested; whereas the index (or indices) is calculated in U.S. dollar terms and on total return basis.

177 INDIA EQUITY FUND Investment Objective: The sub-fund aims to provide long-term capital growth for those investors who hold a long-term investment view and are prepared to accept significant fluctuations in the value of their investments. The sub-fund s investment portfolio will consist mainly of equity-related investments and equities of companies covering the different sectors of the Indian economy and which are listed on a stock exchange either in India or overseas. The remaining assets of the sub-fund may include convertible bonds, bonds, deposits and other investments. Investments in the Indian market shall be made through a Foreign Institutional Investor ( FII ) registered with the India regulator. Such an FII can be either the Company or the Investment Manager. PERFORMANCE FROM 1 JULY 2016 TO 30 JUNE 2017* India Equity Fund Class AA % India Equity Fund Class I % MSCI India 10/40 Index % PORTFOLIO REVIEW During the period under review, volatility was high in India and domestic factors were the main drivers of the markets. Indian markets initially saw a rally, but during the latter part of the first half, markets corrected after the Indian government took the surprise step to demonetize high denomination notes, affecting money supply and economic activities. The markets also saw the surprise victory of Donald Trump in the US presidential elections in November, creating a lot of uncertainty for US-focused businesses in India like IT services and pharmaceuticals. During the second half of the period, Indian markets saw a sustained rally along with currency appreciation due to two key factors which contributed to performance. Firstly, the Indian Union Budget was presented in the beginning of February, which focused on fiscal prudence and sharper spending focus. Secondly, the ruling party of the Central Government Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) emerged victorious in the state assembly polls in March, and this augured well for political and policy stability. On the domestic front, India saw a better country balance sheet as current account deficit came down, forex reserves went to all-time highs, and inflation went to an all-time low, pushing up real rates. High real rates attracted strong foreign institutional investor (FII) inflows, and as a result, the Indian rupee also appreciated during the period. Inflation has fallen to historic lows, driven by lower food prices and stable oil prices. Despite a relatively good macro backdrop, aggregate demand has yet to show a decisive bounce-back, keeping capacity utilization low and industrial output weak. This is mainly caused by the stress in the rural economy, which was reeling under the pressures of lower global prices in agro-commodities, as well as back to back years of below normal rainfall in 2014 and With normal rainfalls in CY2016, and projection of normal monsoons in CY2017 by the Indian Meteorological Department some alleviation of stress in rural India is expected going forward. * The performance return of the fund is calculated in U.S. dollar terms and includes dividends re-invested; whereas the index (or indices) is calculated in U.S. dollar terms and on total return basis. 175 MANULIFE GLOBAL FUND

178 INDIA EQUITY FUND There were three important policy developments during the period which could have a far reaching impact going forward: 1) GST bill The long-awaited GST bill saw continued legislative progress after becoming law in September 2016, and is now set to be implemented from 1 July GST will unify India into a single market and is expected to raise productivity and ease of doing business over the coming years. This is also likely to reduce tax avoidance and expand the tax base in India. 2) Demonetization The government demonetized existing INR500 and INR1000 notes in November The primary motive was to eliminate unaccounted stashes of cash to help fight corruption, as well as reduce tax avoidance, money laundering and terrorist financing. 3) Push on affordable housing The government has identified affordable housing as a key area in its infrastructure development plan, providing various incentives which will lower borrowing cost and improve affordability for a large section of home buyers The PM believes this scheme can potentially kick-start housing demand in India and start the household capex cycle again. The sub-fund was overweight in financials, consumer staples, real estate, and consumer discretionary. The focus of the sub-fund was to play on domestic consumption, increase in domestic savings, and increasing formalization of the economy. With that perspective, within financials, the sub-fund was primarily overweight on retail lending-focused names, as well as wealth management and insurance companies which are beneficiaries of rising financial savings. During the period, the portfolio was underweight in cyclical and capital intensive sectors like energy, telecom and capital goods names within the industrial basket. The portfolio was underweight in healthcare as the sector is facing pricing pressure in the US market and increased regulatory scrutiny. The portfolio was also underweight in information technology owing to the sector facing disruption-led challenges and weak earnings outlook. Stock selection in energy, financials, consumer discretionary, and healthcare were big contributors to performance. From an allocation point of view, an underweight in information technology, healthcare, telecommunication, as well as an overweight allocation in financials were the major positive contributors. On the other hand, stock selection in utilities and industrials were the main detractors. MANULIFE GLOBAL FUND 176

179 INDIA EQUITY FUND MARKET REVIEW During the first three months of the period (1 July 2016 to 30 September 2016), Indian markets rallied along with other emerging markets. July saw a sharp rally due to overall emerging markets rallying and attracting passive inflows, as well as expectation of the GST bill passing in the legislature fueling risk-on sentiments. August saw a marginal rally as the GST bill got passed in the upper house and the earnings season was in-line with expectations. The new RBI governor was announced; since he was already the deputy governor of the RBI, it meant relief on policy continuity for the market. September saw correction in India despite emerging markets doing well, as cautious commentary from technology and banking sectors dampened investor sentiment. During the following quarter (1 October 2016 to 31 December 2016), markets were driven down by the shock of demonetization and underperformed. October saw markets consolidating in line with broader emerging markets with the US presidential elections looming on the horizon. On the other hand, the new RBI governor cut rates in line with market expectations by 25bps amid falling inflation and weak industrial growth. November saw a sharp correction in India, underperforming broader emerging markets as demonetization got announced. During December, the markets consolidated even as other emerging markets rallied, as the Indian markets tried to process how the after effects of demonetization will play out going forward on the Indian economy. During the third quarter of the period under review (1 January 2017 to 31 March 2017), Indian markets rallied on a sustained basis every month, outperforming other emerging markets. The rally in January was fuelled by better than expected earnings vs. muted expectations after demonetization. February saw a rally after the budget was presented. It aimed at reducing fiscal deficit and improved quality of spending and steered clear of excessive populist measures. In March, the market continued to rally after the surprising strength of the BJP in state assembly polls; it cemented Prime Minister Modi s authority within the BJP and the government. This should be positive for implementation of the Central Government s agenda, which is centered around anti-corruption, indirect tax reform, and state spending on infrastructure, housing and rural development. During the fourth quarter under review (1 April 2017 to 30 June 2017), Indian markets gave positive returns but underperformed other regional markets (and the broad emerging market basket), as the market took a breather from the strong performance in the previous three months and considered the uncertainties emerging from the upcoming GST implementation on 1 July Overall, Indian markets gave strong positive returns. Materials, energy, industrials, financials, consumer staples, and consumer discretionary performed the best and outperformed the markets. Healthcare, information technology, telecommunication, and utilities underperformed. 177 MANULIFE GLOBAL FUND

180 INDIA EQUITY FUND OUTLOOK The PM remains optimistic on the domestically driven India story in times of global uncertainty. Due to prudent policy-making both by the government and RBI, and with help from falling crude prices, India s macro has continued to remain stable with lower current account deficit and all time high foreign currency reserves. Despite lower nominal rates, real rates are at a high due to falling inflation. This has led to more financial savings joining formal avenues like bank deposits, equities, bonds, insurance (as opposed to real estate and gold earlier), and cost of funds has come off. The PM is bullish on financials like mid-sized private banks, wealth managers, and insurance. The PM also likes autos as affordability improves with lower financing costs. The PM is also optimistic that the Indian economy will formalize driven by GST implementation and become more efficient and tax compliant. This also opens opportunity for the organized sector to gain market share for companies in organized retail, apparels, jewellery and light electrical companies and the PM is bullish on them. Keeping these themes in mind, the PM is overweight in financials, consumer discretionary, real estate, cement stocks within materials, and consumer staples. The PM has recently increased weight in consumer staples as it has emerged as a key beneficiary of lower tax rates under GST. The PM is underweight in technology owing to the sector facing disruption-led challenges and a weak earnings outlook. The PM also remains negative and underweight on telecom, which is capital-intensive and seeing disruptive competition. The PM is underweight in healthcare, where large players are seeing generic drugs price erosion in US and regulatory challenges. The PM is also underweight on global cyclicals like energy.

183 JAPANESE GROWTH FUND Investment Objective: The sub-fund aims to achieve capital growth principally from a portfolio of Japanese stocks, with the emphasis on larger companies. Scope exists for a proportion of the sub-fund to be invested in warrants. It should be noted that the value of assets invested in warrants is subject to greater fluctuations, warrants being more volatile than ordinary shares. PERFORMANCE FROM 1 JULY 2016 TO 30 JUNE 2017* Japanese Growth Fund Class A % Japanese Growth Fund Class AA % Japanese Growth Fund Class I % TOPIX Index % PORTFOLIO REVIEW The strongest performances in the sub-fund came from a Japanese multinational electronics corporation, a Japanese multinational banking and financial services company and a top-tier Japanese life insurance company. The mentioned electronics corporation is performing well partly due to the positive news about the smooth operation of their electric vehicle (EV) battery production. The most negative contributors (as compared to the benchmark) were a Japanese telecommunications operator and a Japanese multinational consumer electronics and video game company which we do not own in the portfolio. MARKET REVIEW The market rose continuously over the 12 months. In the first six months, this was driven by yen weakness as the currency declined from 100 to under 115 versus the US dollar. Since January, the currency stabilised, fluctuating between 110 and 115. The market, however, continued to rally on the back of stronger global trade and an improving domestic economy. The Japanese unemployment rate fell below 3%, despite an increase in the number of people joining the workforce. The jobs-to-applicants ratio hit a new high of 1.49 in May. The labour market tightened, but core consumer price index (CPI) remains weak. However, towards the end of the 12 months, the markets began to talk about the possibility of rising inflation later in 2017 as the Bank of Japan and other central banks indicated a more hawkish outlook for monetary policy. Over the 12 months, the best performing sectors were other products (mainly Nintendo), insurance, and brokers. The worst performing sector was pharmaceuticals. The pharmaceutical sector was hit by concerns both before and after the US elections about the US government acting on drug prices. The best performing stocks over the 12 months included Showa Denko, which benefited from improving profit margins in some of its core petrochemicals. The worst performer was Ono Pharmaceutical which suffered from an unexpected 50% price cut in its cancer drug Opdivo. * The performance return of the fund is calculated in U.S. dollar terms and includes dividends re-invested; whereas the index (or indices) is calculated in U.S. dollar terms and on total return basis. 181 MANULIFE GLOBAL FUND

184 JAPANESE GROWTH FUND OUTLOOK Up until recently, Japan was the lone outsider of political certainty in a world of political uncertainty, and chaotic election and referendum outcomes. Now, things aren t looking so rosy for Mr Abe in Japan either after the fallout from various scandals related to Mr Abe and his family. The election outcome of the Tokyo Metropolitan Government elections was a landslide for Ms Koike s new Tomin First Party and a disappointment for the Liberal Democratic Party (LDP). It should be noted that these are only local and national elections. Outside of Brexit, unexpected political outcomes have had a limited impact on equity markets. All the earnings announcements for the March fiscal year end are now complete. It is now clear that earnings growth stagnated in 2016 as the yen strengthened and companies struggled to grow sales, both at home and overseas. Despite this, earnings growth remained positive with several strong performers, including construction and machinery companies. Japanese companies are also expecting earnings growth in However, most companies are showing restraint in their optimism, using currency forecasts of 100 or 105 yen/us dollar. This implies that upward earnings revisions should be possible over the course of the year, which would be supportive for a further rise in the equity market. There were notable strong earnings growth forecasts for next year from Sony, Tokyo Electron, and Fujitsu among others. Japan remains the cheapest developed market on both price to earnings and price to book. Japan s return on equity (ROE) has also been steadily improving and currently stands at 8%. The sub-fund s portfolio manager (PM) believes this could reach 10% by Although this is still below the US (13%), it is on a faster growth path. One of the drivers for higher ROE is the record level of share buybacks. Most Japanese corporates have a net cash position giving them ample opportunity to make further buybacks in MANULIFE GLOBAL FUND 182

187 LATIN AMERICA EQUITY FUND Investment Objective: The sub-fund aims to make investments on a diversified basis to achieve long term capital growth for those investors who are prepared to accept significant fluctuations in the value of their investments. The sub-fund s underlying investment portfolio will consist mainly of equity-related investments and equities of companies covering different sectors of the Latin American economy, including, but not limited to Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Mexico and Argentina and which are listed on any stock exchange. The remaining assets of the sub-fund may include convertible bonds, bonds, deposits and other investments. PERFORMANCE FROM 1 JULY 2016 TO 30 JUNE 2017* Latin America Equity Fund Class AA +9.08% MSCI Latin America 10/40 Index % PORTFOLIO REVIEW The sub-fund generated a positive return over the 12-month period under review, albeit one that lagged underlying markets. This underperformance was primarily the result of stock selection in Brazil and Mexico. The value-focused commodities rally in Brazil dominated for much of the period under review. While portfolio holdings continued to post strong gains and delivered on their investment expectations, they failed to keep pace. This optimism over commodity prices may prove short-lived and will over time be outstripped by the high quality, strong cashflow generation of the companies in the portfolio. The managers decision to keep raising Argentina exposure over the last 12-months has been rewarded as utilities have benefited from dramatic tariff revisions and banks are beginning to position themselves for a multi-year growth phase. Fundamentals remain supportive. Over the period under review, the sub fund s exposure to Mexico was reduced in favour of a higher exposure to Argentina. On a sector analysis, exposure to real estate, energy and utilities rose as exposure to financials and consumer discretionary fell. The sub-fund currently has a substantial overweight exposure to Argentina, counterbalanced by an underweight exposure to both Chile and Colombia. Exposure to Brazil is marginally overweight, with Mexico marginally underweight. Exposure to the materials sector remains significantly underweight, whilst the sub-fund has an overweight exposure to both consumer discretionary and financials. MARKET REVIEW Latin American stockmarkets were generally firmer across the 12-month period ending 31 June 2017, though underperforming emerging markets more widely. Share prices were however unusually volatile, with all markets in thrall to the US presidential election process, and Brazil dominated by political developments. The frontier market of Argentina secured the strongest gains after it removed capital controls and made further progress along the path to reform under the Macri administration, though it failed to secure reclassification as an MSCI emerging market at the very end of the period under review. Colombia made the smallest gains despite signing an historic peace deal with the FARC leftist rebel group. All eyes were however on the US presidential elections given candidate Donald Trump s threat to tear up trade agreements and pursue an overtly nationalistic agenda if elected. When Trump somewhat surprisingly won the election in November to become the 45th president of the United States, stockmarkets and currencies therefore reacted negatively with sharp falls across the region in anticipation of the hit to GDP that would inevitably follow a reduction in exports to the US. This however proved to be a low point with markets soon beginning to recover as it became apparent that President Trump was back-pedalling on some of his more extreme pre-election rhetoric and indeed having difficulty in getting any of his campaign promises enacted.

188 LATIN AMERICA EQUITY FUND In Brazil, the region s largest market, share prices also reacted sharply to Trump s election having shown marked strength beforehand as the removal of Dilma Rousseff from office had seemed to draw a line under recent political scandals and herald a period of relative sobriety in which to pursue much needed economic and social reform under the more centrist Michel Temer as president. And indeed this appeared to be happening with the economy improving and some reforms enacted, until any renewed confidence was sorely dashed in May when Temer was alleged to have been party to a bribery scandal, prompting sharp falls in share prices. These developments have now thrown doubt over the process of pension reform, without which the nation s finances cannot be fixed, and threaten to stop the economy s nascent recovery in its tracks. Nevertheless, Brazilian shares still generated a strong return over the period as a whole, supported in part by commodity prices, which were also heavily influenced by hopes for accelerating world economic growth led by the US under President Trump. OUTLOOK Politics will be an increasing focus over the next 18 months with presidential elections in Chile, Mexico, Brazil and Colombia as well as key mid-terms in Argentina, the sub-fund s managers are optimistic that the trend is towards more market-friendly policies across the region. The economic backdrop is also improving with GDP growth gathering pace and inflation falling in most countries. This should drive operating leverage and earnings growth, thus supporting share prices. Brazil remains under a cloud with President Temer by no means secure in office. Pension reform is now at risk and may have to be tackled after the 2018 presidential election. However, the economy is in a much better position than at the time of Dilma Rousseff s impeachment in Inflation is now below 4.0%, the central bank cut rates 1.0% to 10.25% in May and should have additional room to cut to around 8.5% to 9.0% by year end, unemployment is now falling for the first time in two years and GDP growth is beginning to strengthen. Consequently, while political uncertainty could extend until new presidential elections in 2018, there is still room for Brazil to deliver meaningful earnings growth over the next two years and while the sub-fund s exposure to Brazil has fallen, the managers still see an attractive risk-reward in Brazil and remain overweight. Political uncertainty in Mexico, compounded by risks associated with the Trump-inspired NAFTA renegotiation, as well as a relatively poor economic position, continue to support an underweight exposure. This is compounded by risks associated with the Trump-inspired NAFTA renegotiation and with inflation now eroding real wages, with interest rates expected to rise further in order to anchor inflation expectations, and with the strength of the consumer likely to come under pressure the managers retain an underweight position. The opportunity set remains attractive. Despite the political uncertainty, the sharp fall in Brazil after the infamous tape recording of Temer was released has reduced several names that may have been missed in 2016 to more appealing valuations. Increasing comfort that Trump is unlikely to deliver on his more extreme plans for US-Mexico relations similarly leaves the country offering several investment options. MANULIFE GLOBAL FUND 186

191 RUSSIA EQUITY FUND Investment Objective: The sub-fund aims to provide long-term capital growth for those who hold a long term investment view and who are prepared to accept significant fluctuations in the value of their investments in order to achieve long term returns. It is intended that the investments will be made on a diversified basis. The underlying investment portfolio will mainly consist of equity-related investments and securities of companies located in Russia and other companies located outside Russia whose income is predominantly derived from Russia, all of which in accordance with the regulations, are listed or traded on Regulated Markets as referred to in the Prospectus. The sub-fund may also invest in other countries in the Commonwealth of Independent States. The remaining assets of the sub-fund may include bonds, deposits and other investments. PERFORMANCE FROM 1 JULY 2016 TO 30 JUNE 2017* Russia Equity Fund Class AA % MSCI Russia 10/40 Index % PORTFOLIO REVIEW The sub-fund generated a strong return over the 12-month period ending 30 June 2017, significantly ahead of the underlying market. This outperformance could be ascribed to its off-benchmark positions in Kazakhstan as well as its stock selection in Russia itself. Over the period under review, the sub fund s exposure to the materials and financials sectors was reduced significantly in favour of a higher exposure to energy. MARKET REVIEW Russian shares moved broadly higher over the 12-month period ending 30 June In the absence of any significant domestic developments, this appreciation most probably reflects an improvement in underlying activity as the economy gradually emerges from a prolonged recession. GDP is now expected to grow by between 1% and 2% in At the same time inflation, which was running as high as 13% as recently as 2015, looks set to end 2017 below its official 4% target as the central bank has kept interest rates comparatively high. Although interest rates are now coming down, with the central bank s key rate falling from 10.5% to 9.0% over the period under review, these cuts have not kept pace with the fall in inflation with real interest rates therefore remaining stubbornly high. This in turn has helped to support the value of the rouble, which has managed to avoid many of the gyrations seen in other emerging market currencies as the US dollar has first risen, and then fallen, in reaction to the election of President Trump. The oil price is another factor that can have a marked impact on the value of Russian assets, be it shares prices or the currency. Oil, as measured by Brent Crude, both started and finished the 12-month period at a price of just under USD50 per barrel having been above USD55 per barrel over the early months of 2017 following a rare agreement amongst OPEC members, subsequently joined by other countries including Russia, to limit production in order to help support prices. These developments, although seeming to have little impact on the value of the rouble, where high real interest rates tended to dominate, did have some influence over share prices. This was evident from the spike in share prices seen around the end of the year. At their best, Russian share prices were some 30% above the levels prevailing at the beginning of the period under review, in US dollar terms, though they ended the period up little more than 10%. The high value of the rouble relative to oil tended to benefit consumer-related stocks, especially those with an import focus, though it was a negative for commodity companies whose revenues are largely in US dollars but costs predominantly in roubles. Separately, there was persistent speculation over much of the period under review that the government would force state-owned enterprises to increase their dividend payouts to 50% of IFRS earnings. * The performance return of the fund is calculated in U.S. dollar terms and includes dividends re-invested; whereas the index (or indices) is calculated in U.S. dollar terms and on total return basis. 189 MANULIFE GLOBAL FUND

192 RUSSIA EQUITY FUND OUTLOOK The approach of the sub-fund s managers has always been more suited to markets that care about company-specific factors rather than being driven by top-down factors and momentum. During such phases the sub-fund is well positioned to produce a strong performance relative to underlying markets. Against a stable macroeconomic and political environment in Russia at present the managers are looking forward to markets being driven by fundamentals over the coming months. Following a period of underperformance relative to emerging markets, recent weakness may prove an excellent entry point for long term investors in Russia. MANULIFE GLOBAL FUND 190

206 STRATEGIC INCOME FUND Investment Objective: The sub-fund seeks a high level of current income. In pursuing this goal, the subfund invests primarily in the following types of securities: (i) foreign government and corporate debt securities from developed and emerging markets (ii) U.S. government and agency securities (iii) U.S. high yield bonds The sub-fund may also invest in preferred stock and other types of debt securities. Although the sub-fund may invest up to 10% of its total assets in securities rated in default by Standard & Poor s or Moody s rating agencies (the expression in default in this context refers to securities that have missed one or more scheduled payments of interest or principal or have a rating of D by the rating agencies), it generally intends to keep its average credit quality in the investment grade range (AAA to BBB). There is no limit on the sub-fund s average maturity. PERFORMANCE FROM 1 JULY 2016 TO 30 JUNE 2017* Strategic Income Fund Class AA +1.81% Strategic Income Fund Class I % Strategic Income Fund Class S Hedged -1.53% Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index -0.31% PORTFOLIO REVIEW The sub-fund s sector allocation was the largest contributor to its performance during the period, primarily due to an overweight exposure to investment-grade and high-yield corporate bonds and convertible bonds, and an underweight exposure to US Treasury bills. Currency management also contributed to performance, primarily owing to an overweight exposure to the Mexican peso. Duration management was relatively neutral. The sub-fund s security selection within the corporate sector detracted from its performance. MARKET REVIEW There was no shortage of central bank, economic, political and industry-specific news over the past year, which kept markets on edge. The general dovish tone from most developed central banks helped risk assets outperform. In November, after an upset victory by Donald Trump in the US presidential election, the market reaction felt very similar to the reaction after Brexit, with expectations for elevated short-term volatility and uncertainty as it relates to longer-term market implications. Risk assets gained, however, due to potential pro-growth policies from the new administration. Eurozone politics and European Central Bank (ECB) policy change were at the forefront as well. With growth continuing to improve, on 14 December, the Fed increased the federal funds rate (as widely anticipated) by 0.25%. However, comments from Chair Janet Yellen and an upward revision in the forward rate projections to three expected increases in 2017 (from two previously), fuelled a market perception that the Fed was more hawkish than expected. Later in the period, House Republicans could not round up enough votes to repeal and replace the Affordable Care Act, raising questions about their ability to tackle other tough issues, such as tax reform, and the market took a breather as a result. Further clouding the economic environment was the UK hitting its target of triggering Article 50 by the end of March. Late in the period, several central bankers comments during the month suggested a shift to a more hawkish sentiment on a global basis. Despite this backdrop, risk-based assets performed well during the period and global interest rates generally moved higher. * The performance return of the fund is calculated in U.S. dollar terms and includes dividends re-invested; whereas the index (or indices) is calculated in U.S. dollar terms and on total return basis. MANULIFE GLOBAL FUND 204

207 STRATEGIC INCOME FUND OUTLOOK The sub-fund s portfolio manager s (PM) view is that volatility will continue in 2017 across all asset classes (fixed income, equities, commodities, and foreign exchange) driven by changing central bank policies, country-specific events (like Brexit negotiations and elections in Europe), as well as the Trump administration s ability to implement its proposed policies. As a result, the PM continues to maintain a relatively defensive posture in the portfolio from a credit and quality perspective, while also focusing on managing portfolio liquidity to minimise the impact of volatility in the short term. The PM continues to pay special attention to global economic data releases and the subsequent policy response from central banks worldwide. The PM has become more constructive on several global macroeconomic factors, and believe there is more upside surprise risk to the global economy than downside. The PM believes this environment is positive for global fixed-income markets. However, given that valuations are at fair value in most fixed-income sectors, the PM will look to increase risk within the portfolio on a selective basis. The PM anticipates that the US economy will continue to grow at a moderate pace in the year ahead, outperforming most of its developed-market peers. While relative yield levels across developed markets may keep a ceiling on long-term US rates in the near term, the PM believes the Trump administration s policies could potentially extend the economic cycle and lead to higher rates over the long term. The PM believes the risk of a higher global interest rate environment has increased, and, as a result, sub-fund is maintaining a bias to shorten duration and will tactically adjust interest rate exposures around specific economic data and central bank comments and policies. The PM continues to embrace and add to credit risk in the portfolio selectively, recognising that sector, quality, and issuer selection are more important factors today than they were earlier in the credit cycle. The PM also holds core positions in global governments, and commercial mortgage-backed and assetbacked securities, which provide diversification away from pure corporate risk. The PM is targeting specific countries for adding to the sub-fund s emerging markets position, with a view that there will likely be wider performance deviations across countries, qualities, and currencies moving forward. With respect to currencies, as global central bank policies potentially become more in sync, the PM believes the stronger US dollar trend may peak. As a result, the PM will look for opportunities to strategically un-hedge some of the sub-fund s foreign bonds. The PM will continue to add risk in both fixed-income and currency markets, albeit on the margin, in the coming weeks and months, but will be selective and patient in doing so. 205 MANULIFE GLOBAL FUND

210 TAIWAN EQUITY FUND Investment Objective: The sub-fund aims to provide long-term capital growth for those who hold a long-term investment view and who are prepared to accept significant fluctuations in the value of their investments in order to achieve long-term returns. It is intended that the investments will be made on a diversified basis. The underlying investment portfolio will mainly consist of equity-related investments and equities of companies that are listed on any stock exchange in Taiwan; or companies covering the different sectors of the economy in Taiwan and which are listed on any stock exchange; or companies that derive a significant portion of their earnings from Taiwan. The sub-fund may also invest in convertible bonds and depositary receipts issued by such companies, debt obligations of the Government of Taiwan, collective investment schemes and closed-end funds. The remaining assets of the sub-fund may include bonds, deposits and other investments. PERFORMANCE FROM 1 JULY 2016 TO 30 JUNE 2017* Taiwan Equity Fund Class AA % Taiwan TAIEX Index % PORTFOLIO REVIEW Stock selection in consumer discretionary and information technology, and the overweight in healthcare negatively impacted performance. On the other hand, stock selection in financials and consumer staples, and the underweight in telecommunications services positively impacted performance. Some of the sub-fund s holdings in the information technology sector were among the largest contributors to performance. The top contributor was a Taiwanese passive component manufacturer as pricing continues to improve for one of its key products, multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCC), given a supply shortage. A camera lens maker contributed positively to performance due to better-than-expected penetration and sales of its dual-lens camera. The main detractor was an automotive components manufacturer holding that specialises in sensors and electronic car parts after it reported weak October sales. The sub-fund no longer owns this company. Another detractor was one of the largest biotechnology conglomerates in the country that specialises in oncology drugs its September sales were affected by a drop in shipments to some clients in the US and Europe. Its first quarter earnings were also weighed down by higher research and development expenses and foreign exchange loss. However, the strong fundamentals of the company remain unchanged due to stable cash flows, large export potential, and high barriers to entry of its liposome products. MARKET REVIEW The Taiwan equity market performed strongly over the period despite the sell-down post the US elections due to the strong performance of the technology sector and robust foreign inflows. First quarter GDP growth registered at 2.6% year-on-year due to resilient domestic consumption and robust exports. Exports in May posted its eighth consecutive month of growth on the back of solid demand for machinery, integrated circuits, and base metals. The central bank kept its policy rates unchanged for four consecutive quarterly meetings as the domestic economy steadily gains momentum and inflation remains subdued. The government is considering a tax reform that may increase corporate tax and reduce personal income tax. * The performance return of the fund is calculated in U.S. dollar terms and includes dividends re-invested; whereas the index (or indices) is calculated in U.S. dollar terms and on total return basis. MANULIFE GLOBAL FUND 208

211 TAIWAN EQUITY FUND OUTLOOK The government revised up 2017 GDP growth by 5 basis points (bps) to 1.92% year-on-year due to better-than-expected export orders driven by the technology and automation segments. Exports for the first five months of the year were up 12.5% year-on-year, and grew for eight consecutive months in May. With Taiwan being an export-oriented and tech-heavy economy, the recent reversal of the local currency s strength against the US dollar will benefit corporate earnings. The sub-fund s portfolio manager (PM) expects the US dollar to strengthen in the following quarters, and the upcoming iphone 8 products to support good export numbers ahead and GDP growth. That said, the technology industry, especially parts of it linked to the iphone 8 supply chain, will be the key driver of exports and the economy by the latter half of the year. For 2017, as the global economy sees a slight recovery, the PM expects export-oriented countries such as Taiwan to benefit. The PM believes the second half of the year will be better due to several catalysts. First, a super product cycle should stem from the production of the Organic Light-Emitting Diode (OLED)-based iphone 8, with the launch date in September. Second, the excess supply issue in China s smartphone market should abate by July. Third, the demand for automation remains strong. Lastly, Tesla s Model 3 will be in maximum production by the third quarter. The PM started to add more weighting on non-tech sectors that are exposed to China and Tesla consumption. The PM also added some positions in a coffee chain store, industrial computer servers, and optical fibre as these look likely to have more upside for the rest of the year. The PM believes that market risk is rising gradually, but remains manageable. 209 MANULIFE GLOBAL FUND

213 TURKEY EQUITY FUND Investment Objective: The sub-fund aims to provide long term capital growth for those who hold a long term investment view and who are prepared to accept significant fluctuations in the value of their investments in order to achieve long term returns. It is intended that the investments will be made on a diversified basis. The underlying investment portfolio will mainly consist of equity-related investments and securities of companies located in Turkey and other companies located outside Turkey whose income is predominantly derived from Turkey, all of which in accordance with the regulations, will be listed or traded on Regulated Markets as referred to in the Prospectus. The remaining assets of the subfund may include bonds, deposits and other investments. PERFORMANCE FROM 1 JULY 2016 TO 30 JUNE 2017* Turkey Equity Fund Class AA +9.86% MSCI Turkey 10/40 Index +8.44% PORTFOLIO REVIEW The sub-fund generated a positive return over the 12-month period ending 30 June 2017, slightly ahead of the underlying market. This outperformance was entirely due to its stock selection. Over the period under review, the sub fund s exposure to the financials and telecommunication services sectors was reduced in favour of a significantly higher exposure to materials. Currently, the sub-fund s largest overweight exposure is in the financials and consumer discretionary sectors, reflecting the opportunities available to companies operating in the domestic economy as activity here continues to improve as the tumultuous events of the last 12 months fade into memory. The sub-fund now has no exposure to the telecommunication services sector. MARKET REVIEW Share prices on the Borsa Istanbul finished the 12-month period ending 30 June 2017 with a net gain of around 8% in US dollar terms. However, this relatively subdued number masks a substantial early fall, which saw share prices down around 25% by the end of the year, followed by an even more marked rise of close to 50% over the remainder of the period. Two significant events were responsible for this volatility: first, an attempted coup by a section of the military that initially only narrowly failed to overthrow President Erdogan but which was then brutally crushed and followed by a prolonged purge of those thought by the government to be in sympathy with the insurgents; and second, a constitutional referendum that saw the country voting to make the office of president an executive, rather than a largely ceremonial, one. Both developments however served to underline the extent to which Recep Tayyip Erdogan, the president of Turkey, has centralised power around himself in an increasingly autocratic fashion. Indeed, Turkey has been under a, repeatedly renewed, state of emergency ever since the coup and this placed ultimate power in Erdogan s hands even before the constitutional referendum was held. * The performance return of the fund is calculated in U.S. dollar terms and includes dividends re-invested; whereas the index (or indices) is calculated in U.S. dollar terms and on total return basis. 211 MANULIFE GLOBAL FUND

214 TURKEY EQUITY FUND July s coup came as something of a shock and financial markets reacted negatively to both the coup itself and the subsequent crackdown; although by no means unusual in an historical context, markets had supposed that Turkey had outgrown its past and could now be considered alongside more normal western democracies. This view was however superseded by the realization that with President Erdogan now in firm control, and with no elections on the horizon, political uncertainty had all but disappeared and that the government could now get on with the job of running the country and promoting economic growth. The economy itself suffered in the immediate aftermath of the coup but has since recovered, with GDP growing by 1.4% over the first quarter of 2017 to stand 4.7% higher than a year earlier. In part this reflected a near 20% fall in the value of the Turkish lira, which served to boost exports. It also reflected a continuing rapprochement with Russia, which lifted its ban on travel to Turkey during the period under review. Inflation rose to around 12% in the wake of the lira s fall but has since fallen back a little with the central bank, whose independence continues to be the subject of some speculation, tightening monetary policy somewhat with the most recent rate hike occurring in April. OUTLOOK Looking forward, as political newsflow diminishes in importance and as evidence of improving economic growth becomes ever more evident, the market can be expected to keep its focus on fundamentals. Fiscal measures taken earlier in the year look like they are paying dividends and should continue to support the outlook. With tight monetary policy in place supporting the currency, the global rate outlook supportive of emerging market assets, increasing consumer and business confidence post the election cycle, Turkish assets should continue to perform well. We expect such tailwinds to continue to support the Turkish market for the time being. As ever, the sub-fund s managers will be sticking to their bottomup approach and continuing to looking for the best opportunities across the entire market. MANULIFE GLOBAL FUND 212

234 U.S. BOND FUND Investment Objective: The primary objective of this sub-fund is to maximize total returns from a combination of current income and capital appreciation. To pursue this objective, the sub-fund will normally invest its assets in U.S. dollars-denominated fixed-income securities with an intended average credit rating of A and above. PERFORMANCE FROM 1 JULY 2016 TO 30 JUNE 2017* U.S. Bond Fund Class AA +1.92% U.S. Bond Fund Class AA (HKD) +1.89% U.S. Bond Fund Class AA (HKD) Inc +1.90% U.S. Bond Fund Class AA Inc +1.91% U.S. Bond Fund Class I +2.12% U.S. Bond Fund Class I % Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index -0.31% PORTFOLIO REVIEW The sub-fund s performance for the period was driven primarily by sector allocation. A non-benchmark position in high-yield corporate bonds and an overweight position in investment-grade corporate securities aided performance. Underweight positions in residential mortgage-backed securities and US Treasury bonds, both of which declined for the period, also added value. Individual security selection also contributed meaningfully to relative performance. Leading contributors among the sub-fund s corporate bond holdings included an electric utility, a chemicals producer, and a calcine petroleum coke producer. Notable detractors included a technology products distributor, a cosmetics maker, and an energy producer. The sub-fund s duration (a measure of interest-rate sensitivity) was slightly shorter than that of the benchmark throughout the period, which meant that the sub-fund had less sensitivity to yield fluctuations than the benchmark did. This positioning helped overall performance as bond yields rose and bond prices declined. MARKET REVIEW The US bond market produced mixed results for the 12 months ended 30 June 2017, but declined slightly overall as bond yields rose across the board. The bulk of the bond market decline occurred in late 2016, when bond yields increased sharply in response to the surprising outcome of the US presidential election. Expectations that the new administration s fiscal policies would result in stronger economic growth and higher inflation pushed bond yields broadly higher. However, yields fell back somewhat in the first half of 2017 amid a lack of progress on the administration s pro-growth policy agenda. US economic growth slowed during the period. After growing at a 3.5% annual rate in the third quarter of 2016 (the fastest quarterly growth rate in more than two years), the US economy decelerated to a 2.1% annual growth rate in the fourth quarter of 2016 and 1.4% in the first quarter of Employment growth remained robust, but the unemployment rate dipped from 4.9% to 4.3% (its lowest level in a decade) and other segments of the economy showed signs of slowing. For example, manufacturing activity remained muted and consumer spending waned amid a decline in vehicle sales. On the inflation front, the year-over-year inflation rate (as measured by the consumer price index, or CPI) rose to a five-year high of 2.8% in early 2017, reflecting a rebound in energy prices, but trended back down to 1.9% as of 31 May 2017 (the most recent data available). Core CPI, which excludes food and energy prices, rose by 1.7% over the same one-year period. Despite weaker economic data and a lack of inflationary pressure, the Fed raised its short-term interest rate target three times during the period. All three rate hikes were well telegraphed by the Fed and lifted the federal funds rate target to a range of 1.00% to 1.25%. Late in the reporting period, the Fed also released a plan for unwinding its balance sheet of US Treasury and mortgage-backed securities, though the timing of the balance sheet reduction remains unclear. * The performance return of the fund is calculated in U.S. dollar terms and includes dividends re-invested; whereas the index (or indices) is calculated in U.S. dollar terms and on total return basis. MANULIFE GLOBAL FUND 232

235 U.S. BOND FUND From a sector perspective, corporate bonds generated the best returns for the period, benefiting from improving corporate earnings and strong demand for yield in a low interest rate environment. Notably, high-yield corporate bonds posted double-digit returns for the period. On the downside, US Treasury bonds declined the most, reflecting the broad increase in bond yields. OUTLOOK After eight years of moderate but steady expansion and four Fed rate hikes in the past 18 months, the recent slowing in the US economy is not surprising at this stage of the economic cycle. With no policy initiatives apparently forthcoming from the federal government to stimulate economic activity, the Fed is facing the challenge of continuing to normalise interest rates in an environment of modest economic growth and low inflation. The sub-fund s portfolio manager intends to maintain the sub-fund s current positioning, with an emphasis on the credit-related sectors of the bond market. Healthy earnings and global demand for yield should continue to provide support for corporate bonds going forward. 233 MANULIFE GLOBAL FUND

239 U.S. SMALL CAP EQUITY FUND Investment Objective: The sub-fund aims to make diversified investments mainly in equity-related investments and equities of smaller capitalization companies covering different sectors of the economy in the U.S. and which are listed on any stock exchange. The remaining assets of the sub-fund may include convertible bonds, bonds, deposits and other investments. PERFORMANCE FROM 1 JULY 2016 TO 30 JUNE 2017* U.S. Small Cap Equity Fund Class AA % Russell 2000 Index % PORTFOLIO REVIEW The sub-fund s stock selection contributed to performance over the period. Individual contributors included a designer and manufacturer of single-use medical products for cardiovascular and endoscopy procedures; a manufacturer of recreational boats that has executed well on its plans; and a company that processes regenerative materials for wound care and other medical applications. The company has been performing very well recently and the cloud created by a whistle-blower lawsuit has diminished. The sub-fund s cash position detracted from performance over the period. Individual detractors included a producer of low-priced bathroom tissues that reported disappointing sales and pricing; a seller of software for connected devices that recently announced a large earnings miss and senior management departures; and a real estate investment trust (REIT) whose holdings include shopping centres, which are currently out of favour as internet sales increase. The sub-fund s portfolio manager (PM) added numerous new positions during the year, taking a bottomup approach, with individual stocks competing for capital in the portfolio. The PM also eliminated numerous positions during the year. Most stocks were sold because they appreciated and reached their fair value. MARKET REVIEW The period was eventful for financial markets. The Fed raised short-term interest rates three times during the year, marking the first changes to short-term rates since the financial crisis. The 10-year Treasury yield, which was at a record-low level 12 months ago, increased in line with the change in short-term yields. Donald Trump was elected as US president and the equity market favoured cyclical stocks during the fourth quarter of However, market leadership reversed as his economic agenda was delayed. Oil prices declined, and energy was the only sector in the benchmark that declined. OUTLOOK The PM has positioned the sub-fund for modest, continued economic expansion. The PM does not foresee a recession in the near term, and will continue to watch indicators with caution. * The performance return of the fund is calculated in U.S. dollar terms and includes dividends re-invested; whereas the index (or indices) is calculated in U.S. dollar terms and on total return basis. 237 MANULIFE GLOBAL FUND

248 U.S. SPECIAL OPPORTUNITIES FUND Investment Objective: The sub fund aims to maximize total returns from a combination of current income and capital appreciation. To pursue this objective, the sub-fund will primarily invest in U.S. and foreign fixed-income securities rated BB/Ba or lower and their unrated equivalents.

Individual contributors included a semiconductor producer on optimism toward the firm s improved trajectory, an online financial services company on its solid operating results, and a communications satellite services provider on favourable sentiment. Security selection in the energy sector and among transportation and capital goods companies detracted from performance. Individual detractors included two oil and natural gas companies on their mixed outlooks, and a cosmetics company on pressures in the retail industry. MARKET REVIEW The period began with high-yield bonds and loans providing solid gains against a backdrop of diminished global macroeconomic concerns and accommodative central bank policies. Continued recovery in the commodities sectors remained a key theme for high-yield markets since bottoming in early Furthermore, expectations for a lower-for-longer interest rate environment contributed to investor demand for higher-risk/higher-yield market sectors. Volatility increased at the end of 2016 as investors digested fluctuating oil prices and the likelihood of the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) agreeing on supply cuts. The results of the US elections in November, the potential impact of a new administration, and expectations for Fed action in 2017 also contributed to volatility. Despite negative performance in November, which was accompanied by the biggest increase in treasury rates since 2013, high-yield markets performed well over the first half of the period. They continued to perform well in 2017 as optimism surrounding the new US administration; solid economic data and earnings reports; and stabilising US Treasury yields provided a supportive backdrop for risk assets. All industry sectors performed strongly. In recent months, the market dynamics surrounding the price of crude oil has put pressure on the energy sector, and concerns about the impact of e-commerce on consumer behaviour has negatively affected the retail industry. Despite these pockets of concern, highyield markets rose as default expectations have diminished and the global search for yield continues to bring investor interest to the asset class. * The performance return of the fund is calculated in U.S. dollar terms and includes dividends re-invested; whereas the index (or indices) is calculated in U.S. dollar terms and on total return basis. MANULIFE GLOBAL FUND 246

249 U.S. SPECIAL OPPORTUNITIES FUND OUTLOOK The sub-fund s portfolio manager (PM) believes corporate fundamentals remain solid across a variety of sectors. Initial optimism surrounding the US administration s agenda which included tax cuts, increased fiscal spending, and other pro-business policies has begun to wane as the timing and magnitude of policy implementation remains uncertain. The difficulties of putting these measures in place highlights the level of uncertainty surrounding policy implementation, as was demonstrated by the lack of resolution on a repeal and replacement for the Affordable Care Act. Given an upward bias for interest rates in the US, the PM remains diligent in managing portfolio duration (interest-rate sensitivity). The PM believes the flexibility to allocate across the broader credit universe, including across capital structures and the quality spectrum, is important when seeking to maximise riskadjusted returns. In an environment of relatively lower yields, protecting against deteriorating credits remains a critical component of portfolio construction and a key feature of the PM s credit selection process. The outlook for high-yield market returns appears favourable from both a fundamental and technical perspective at least relative to other fixed-income sectors with lower income potentials. Default expectations have diminished considerably, as commodity-related sectors have stabilised with improved economics for natural resource extraction. Furthermore, credit market dynamics are supportive of companies wanting to extend their financing needs. Investor sentiment also remains supportive as the global search for yield continues. However, given the stage and length of the credit cycle, the PM believes that security selection and fundamental analysis remain essential to success in the leveraged credit markets. Given the possibility for broader market volatility (as is often caused by central banks policy visibility, major elections, or other event risks), the PM believes there is reason to remain cautious and mindful of investor complacency in the months ahead. 247 MANULIFE GLOBAL FUND

253 U.S. TREASURY INFLATION-PROTECTED SECURITIES FUND Investment Objective: The primary objective of this sub-fund is to maximize total returns, consistent with capital preservation, by investing in U.S. Treasury Inflation Protected Securities. In addition, the subfund may also invest in other types of inflation-indexed and non-inflation-indexed debt securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government, its agencies, instrumentalities and political sub-divisions. PERFORMANCE FROM 1 JULY 2016 TO 30 JUNE 2017* U.S. Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities Fund Class AA -2.22% U.S. Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities Fund Class AA Inc -2.22% U.S. Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities Fund Class l3-0.96% Barclays Capital U.S. Treasury inflation-protected securities Index -0.63% PORTFOLIO REVIEW The sub-fund s duration positioning aided performance. For most of the period, the sub-fund s duration (a measure of interest-rate sensitivity) was slightly shorter than that of the benchmark, which meant that the sub-fund had less sensitivity to yield fluctuations than the benchmark did. As a result, the sub-fund held up better than the benchmark as US Treasury inflation-protected securities (TIPS) yields rose and TIPS prices declined. The sub-fund was also positioned to benefit from a flatter yield curve (a narrower gap between shortand long-term TIPS yields). This positioning added value as short-term TIPS yields rose more than longerterm TIPS yields during the reporting period. The sub-fund s non-tips holdings detracted from performance. The sub-fund held a small position in residential mortgage-backed securities, and these holdings underperformed the TIPS market during the 12-month period. MARKET REVIEW US Treasury inflation-protected securities (TIPS) declined for the 12 months ended 30 June 2017, as slowing economic growth and decelerating inflation led to reduced demand for inflation protection. After growing at a 3.5% annual rate in the third quarter of 2016 (the fastest quarterly growth rate in more than two years), the US economy decelerated to a 2.1% annual growth rate in the fourth quarter of 2016 and 1.4% in the first quarter of Although employment growth remained robust the unemployment rate dipped from 4.9% to 4.3%, its lowest level in a decade other segments of the economy showed signs of slowing. For example, manufacturing activity remained muted, and consumer spending waned amid a decline in vehicle sales. On the inflation front, the year-over-year inflation rate (as measured by the consumer price index, or CPI) rose from 1.0% at the beginning of the reporting period to a five-year high of 2.8% in early 2017, reflecting a rebound in energy prices. However, the year-over-year inflation rate trended back down to 1.9% as of 31 May 2017 (the most recent data available). Core CPI, which excludes food and energy prices, rose by 1.7% over the same one-year period. Despite weaker economic data and a lack of inflationary pressure, the Fed raised its short-term interest rate target three times during the period. All three rate hikes were well telegraphed by the Fed and lifted the federal funds rate target to a range of 1.00% to 1.25%. Late in the reporting period, the Fed also released a plan for unwinding its balance sheet of US Treasury and mortgage-backed securities, though the timing of the balance sheet reduction remains unclear. In this environment, TIPS yields moved higher across the board. Shorter-term TIPS yields rose the most, reflecting the three Fed rate hikes the two-year TIPS yield increased from -0.72% to 0.10%, while the five-year TIPS yield rose from -0.40% to 0.19%. Longer-term TIPS yields increased to a lesser extent, with the 10-year TIPS yield rising from 0.05% to 0.53% and the 30-year TIPS yield increasing from 0.69% to 0.96%. The 10-year breakeven inflation rate, which reflects the market s inflation expectations for the next 10 years, widened from 1.42% to 1.75% during the 12-month period. * The performance return of the fund is calculated in U.S. dollar terms and includes dividends re-invested; whereas the index (or indices) is calculated in U.S. dollar terms and on total return basis. 251 MANULIFE GLOBAL FUND

254 U.S. TREASURY INFLATION-PROTECTED SECURITIES FUND OUTLOOK The sub-fund s portfolio manager (PM) expects the Fed to raise short-term interest rates once more before the end of The PM also expects the Fed to start reducing its balance sheet during the latter half of the year. On the economic front, the PM believes the US economy will continue to grow at a moderate pace while inflation pressures remain largely contained. The recent weakness in the TIPS market has made valuations more attractive compared with nominal US Treasury securities. All TIPS yields are now in positive territory, and the breakeven inflation rate is lower than the current inflation rate. The sub-fund has a slightly shorter duration than the benchmark and is positioned to benefit from continued flattening in the TIPS yield curve. MANULIFE GLOBAL FUND 252

255 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the year ended 30 June General Manulife Global Fund (the Company ) was incorporated on 7 July 1987 as an open-ended investment company and is organised as a Société d Investissement à Capital Variable ( SICAV ) under Part I of the Law of 10 May 2016 of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg. The Company maintains separate accounts for each sub-fund to which the proceeds of issue of shares and the income arising from the investment of those proceeds are credited and against which expenses are allocated and charged, as appropriate, on an equitable basis. Upon redemption, shareholders are entitled only to their proportion of the net assets, as reflected in the relevant Net Asset Value, held in the account relating to the sub-fund in which their class of shares is designated. Separate Statements of Operations, Net Assets and Changes in Net Assets have accordingly been prepared for each sub-fund. As of 30 June 2017, the Company is comprised of 27 sub-funds: American Growth Fund ASEAN Equity Fund Asia Total Return Fund Asia Value Dividend Equity Fund Asian Equity Fund Asian Small Cap Equity Fund China Value Fund Dragon Growth Fund Emerging Eastern Europe Fund European Growth Fund Global Contrarian Fund Global Equity Fund Global Property Fund Global Resources Fund Greater China Opportunities Fund Healthcare Fund India Equity Fund Japanese Growth Fund Latin America Equity Fund Russia Equity Fund Strategic Income Fund Taiwan Equity Fund Turkey Equity Fund U.S. Bond Fund U.S. Small Cap Equity Fund U.S. Special Opportunities Fund U.S. Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities Fund Please refer to the prospectus of the Company for details on the availability of respective share classes in the relevant jurisdictions. 253 MANULIFE GLOBAL FUND

256 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the year ended 30 June Accounting policies 2.1 Presentation of Financial Statements The financial statements are prepared in accordance with Luxembourg regulations relating to undertakings for collective investments. 2.2 Investments Listed securities and securities dealt in on another regulated market are valued on the basis of their last available market price at the Valuation Point on the period end date. The prospectus defines the Valuation Point as 4:00 p.m. (Luxembourg time) on each Business Day (or such other time as may be otherwise determined by the Directors). Non-listed securities and money market instruments listed or dealt on a regulated market but in respect of which the last sales price is not representative of the fair value, are valued on the basis of their probable sales prices as determined with prudence and in good faith by the Board of Directors upon the advice of the Investment Managers. Liquid assets are valued at their face value with interest accrued; in the case of short-term instruments (especially discount instruments) that have a maturity of less than 90 days, the value of the instrument based on the net acquisition cost, is gradually adjusted to the repurchase price thereof while the investment return calculated on the net acquisition cost is kept constant. In the event of material changes in market conditions, the valuation basis of the investment is adjusted to the new market yields. In the event of it being impossible or incorrect to carry out a valuation in accordance with the above rules owing to particular circumstances, the Board of Directors is entitled to use other generally recognized valuation principles upon the advice of the Investment Managers, in order to reach a proper valuation of the Company s total assets. Units of underlying UCI and UCITS (target funds) are valued on the basis of their last available Net Asset Value per unit or share reduced by any applicable charges. Realised gains and losses on sales of investments in securities are determined on the basis of average cost. Any resulting gains or losses are recognized in the Statement of Changes in Net Assets under the heading Net profits/(losses) realised on sale of investments and options. The net change in unrealised appreciation/(depreciation) on investments and options is included in the Statement of Changes in Net Assets under the heading Net change in unrealised appreciation/(depreciation) on investments and options. Brokerage charges are taken into account in calculating the cost of investments. As approved by the pricing committee, the valuation of Renminbi ( RMB ) Bonds, denominated in Chinese Renminbi ( CNY ) and traded through Hong Kong or Singapore, is done at the Hong Kong delivered Chinese Renminbi ( CNH ) foreign exchange rate. All securities subject to this specific pricing process are indicated in the portfolios with a **. 2.3 Investment Income Dividends are credited to income on the date upon which the relevant securities are first listed as ex-dividend, net of any irrecoverable withholding tax. Bond and deposit interest income is accrued on a daily basis. 2.4 Foreign currency transaction Amounts included in the Statement of Operations in foreign currency are translated into the accounting currency of the respective sub-funds at rates of exchange prevailing on the date of the transaction. Resulting translation gains and losses are recognized in the Statement of Operations in the period in which they occur. MANULIFE GLOBAL FUND 254

258 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the year ended 30 June Accounting policies (continued) 2.7 Options The Company may purchase and write (sell) options. The risk associated with purchasing an option is that the Company pays a premium whether or not the option is exercised. Additionally, the Company bears the risk of loss of the premium and any change in market value should the counterparty not perform under the contract. Put and call options purchased are accounted for in the same manner as portfolio securities. The cost of securities acquired through the exercise of call options are decreased by the premiums paid. When the sub-fund writes an option, the premium received by the sub-fund is recorded as a liability and is subsequently adjusted to the current market value of the option written. In writing covered options, the sub-fund bears market risk of an unfavourable change in the price of the security underlying the written option. Exercise of an option written by the sub-fund could result in the sub-fund selling or buying a security at a price different from the current market value. Losses from written market index call options may be unlimited. Premiums received from writing options which expire unexercised are recorded by the sub-fund on the expiration date as realised gains from options transactions. The difference between the premium and the amount paid on effecting a closing purchase transaction, including brokerage commissions, is also treated as a realised gain, or if the premium is less than the amount paid for the closing purchase transaction, as a realised loss. If a written call option is exercised, the premium is added to the proceeds from the sale of the underlying security in determining whether the sub-fund has realised a gain or a loss. If a written put option is exercised, the premium reduces the cost basis of the security purchased by the sub-fund. 2.8 Consolidation The Company incorporated a Cypriot subsidiary, GFM Holdings (Cyprus) Limited, on 30 August 1996 (on behalf of the Emerging Eastern Europe Fund and the Russia Equity Fund). The Cypriot subsidiary is wholly owned and makes investments according to the Company s investment policy. The Company invests through the Cypriot subsidiary in order to minimize the tax costs of investing in Russia. The consolidated statements of the Emerging Eastern Europe Fund and the Russia Equity Fund include the assets and liabilities and the gains and losses of the respective subsidiaries. 2.9 Formation expenses Formation expenses are amortized over five years commencing from the inception date of the relevant share classes of the relevant sub-funds Combined figures The combined Statement of Net Assets, the combined Statement of Operations and the Combined Statement of Changes in Net Assets are expressed in United States Dollars. For this purpose, the corresponding statements of each sub-fund have been translated into United States Dollars at the exchange rate prevailing at the balance sheet date. MANULIFE GLOBAL FUND 256

261 NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the year ended 30 June Expenses (continued) 3.2 Performance Fee (continued) The performance fee payable by each sub-fund is accrued on each Business Day throughout the relevant performance period and is payable as soon as reasonably practicable after the end of such performance period. The accrual is made based on the Net Asset Value per Share on each Business Day. If it exceeds the Target Net Asset Value per Share for that Class, a performance fee accrual will be made. If not, no performance fee accrual will be made. On each Business Day, the accrual made on the previous Business Day will continue to be reversed and a new performance fee accrual will be calculated and made in accordance with the above. The standing policy of the Company is that a relevant sub-fund which is entitled to levy a performance fee does not perform equalisation or issue different series of shares for the purposes of determining the performance fee payable. The Company s methodology for calculating the performance fee involves adjusting the issue and redemption price per share to make provision for accrual for the performance fee upon the issue and redemption of shares during the relevant performance period. 3.3 Administration and Depositary fees From 1 July 2016 to 30 June 2017, Citibank Europe plc, Luxembourg Branch received fees as Administrator and Depositary at annual rates as follows: Administration fee: The Company pays the fees of the Administrator, Registrar, Listing Agent, Paying Agent and Transfer Agent at commercial rates agreed between these parties and the Company, in addition to reasonable out-of-pocket expenses properly incurred in the course of carrying out their duties.

Depositary fee: The fee paid by the Company for this service varies depending upon the markets in which the assets of the Company are invested and custodied.
