2 About this report The PRI Reporting Framework is a key step in the journey towards building a common language and industry standard for reporting responsible investment (RI) activities. This RI Transparency Report is one of the key outputs of this Framework. Its primary objective is to enable signatory transparency on RI activities and facilitate dialogue between investors and their clients, beneficiaries and other stakeholders. A copy of this report will be publicly disclosed for all reporting signatories on the PRI website, ensuring accountability of the PRI Initiative and its signatories. This report is an export of the individual Signatory organisation s response to the PRI during the 2018 reporting cycle. It includes their responses to mandatory indicators, as well as responses to voluntary indicators the signatory has agreed to make public. The information is presented exactly as it was reported. Where an indicator offers a response option that is multiple-choice, all options that were available to the signatory to select are presented in this report. Presenting the information exactly as reported is a result of signatory feedback which suggested the PRI not summarise the information. As a result, the reports can be extensive. However, to help easily locate information, there is a Principles index which highlights where the information can be found and summarises the indicators that signatories complete and disclose. Understanding the Principles Index The Principles Index summarises the response status for the individual indicators and modules and shows how these relate to the six Principles for Responsible Investment. It can be used by stakeholders as an at-a-glance summary of reported information and to identify particular themes or areas of interest. Indicators can refer to one or more Principles. Some indicators are not specific to any Principle. These are highlighted in the General column. When multiple Principles are covered across numerous indicators, in order to avoid repetition, only the main Principle covered is highlighted. All indicators within a module are presented below. The status of indicators is shown with the following symbols: Symbol Status The signatory has completed all mandatory parts of this indicator The signatory has completed some parts of this indicator This indicator was not relevant for this signatory - The signatory did not complete any part of this indicator The signatory has flagged this indicator for internal review Within the table, indicators marked in blue are mandatory to complete. Indicators marked in grey are voluntary to complete. 1

[Optional] Portfolio management We manage our equity portfolios actively and consistently in line with the respective strategy; the investment universe covers all market capitalization segments. The most important decision-making level is stock selection - disciplined and with the inclusion of sustainability aspects. Clearly defined product responsibilities within the portfolio management team enhance the quality of decisions. Key characteristics of our Fixed Income management are many years of experience with euro-denominated bond portfolios and in analyzing issuer creditworthiness, as well as knowledge of local markets. On this basis, we make top-down allocation decisions and effectively implement bottom-up selection of individual securities into the portfolios. Furthermore, with Metzler Sovereign Select we offer a benchmark-free fixed income strategy which enables us to cover a wide range of global sovereign bonds and take advantage of numerous economic scenarios and interest rate structures for successful diversification. We offer two kinds of conventional balanced funds: one with active management of asset classes or equity exposure and the other with rule-based absolute return concepts and capital preservation strategies. For the latter, we use, among other things, shortfall-based concepts, replication of rolling collar structures and drawdown management combined with varying volatility factors. In the Managed Futures segment, we offer multi-dimensional diversification across asset classes, regions and timeframes. Administration German "Master-KVG" With the "Master fonds", Metzler offers the bundling of segregated accounts which allows each segment to be managed as an independent portfolio. Pension Management Pension management at Metzler includes a variety of services, ranging from conventional asset management and advice on the development of pension concepts and deferred compensation accounts to providing the administrative framework for company pension schemes, for example, through a Contractual Trust Agreement (CTA).

Yes SG 03.2 Describe your policy on managing potential conflicts of interest in the investment process. Information on Dealing with Conflicts of Interest We impose high ethical standards on ourselves and our staff to prevent advisory services, order execution or asset management services being influenced by outside interests. We expect careful, honest, lawful and professional conduct at all times, compliance with market standards and, in particular, close attention to the interests of our clients. Our staff are required to comply with these standards and obligations. We have an independent compliance office which reports directly to the management. lt is responsible for identifying, avoiding and managing conflicts of interest also in the matters concerning the investment process. We will disclose unavoidable conflicts of interest to the client affected before the conclusion of a transaction or before providing advisory services. Further details of the present principles and the handling of conflicts of interest are available on request. No SG 03.3 Additional information. [Optional] A conflict of interest may occur where the interest of a client is not the same as, or is not perceived to be the same as, that of your own organisation. This may relate to either the investment management business or other parts of the business. A conflict of interest may sometimes arise in connection with a responsible investment matter. For example, acting in the interests of clients may indicate that an investor should choose to vote against management at a company or engage with that company; however, the pension fund of that company, or the company itself, may also be a client or potential client of the investor or another part of the investor's parent organisation. In some markets investors are required under regulation or codes of good practice to have such policies in place. Examples include the US, the UK and South Africa. 20

ESG integration is a specific strategy for more sustainable investments aimed at improving fund performance by integrating sustainability aspects into the traditional investment analysis process. For example, we evaluate the economic impact of the following aspects on a company's business success: ESG scores issued by MSCI ESG Research Sector-specific key performance indicators (KPIs) ESG aspects of company business models.
