5 Liquidity solutions for Treasurers Treasurers analyse their objectives and priorities for cash holdings, and constantly aim to deploy their cash balances effectively. In a changing regulatory and money market landscape, the role of treasurers is becoming more important than ever, to ensure institutions continue to meet the strategic goals for cash surpluses and remain in line with the risk budgets. With an eye on the regulatory reforms that may impact their investments, clients value us for insight and direction. Global Liquidity from HSBC Global Asset Management Our liquidity team within HSBC Global Asset Management is dedicated to helping organisations of every kind make their cash reserves work harder through intelligent investment solutions As part of the HSBC Group, we have local liquidity expertise across both core and emerging markets. This helps us to deliver global, multi-currency solutions to allow you to invest your cash in a consistently-managed liquidity product HSBC Global Asset Management provides a wide range of liquidity investment solutions. Our investment philosophy is that liquidity management must be focused on risk management. As such, we believe our responsibility is to aim to preserve capital and provide liquidity 1. With a consultative approach to working with you, solutions range from money market funds to highly customised portfolios Our key strengths A prudent low-risk cash management approach A detailed, considered set of investment policies covering risk aspects A structured and methodical, globally-consistent, investment process designed to deliver on its objectives Distinctive credit approval and limit-setting process The strategic importance of liquidity as an asset class allows HSBC to invest in high quality and appropriate level of dedicated resources Investment and credit teams across 10 locations globally provide local market knowledge Dedicated client service teams to provide timely support A full range of Liquidity investment strategies in multiple currencies HSBC manages USD60.1 billion in Liquidity assets in 11 currencies International Money Market Funds Domestic Capabilities Global Currencies Domestic Capabilities Local Currencies Segregated M andates US Dollar Sterling Euro Canadian Dollar Australian Dollar Euro Prime Government Treasury US Dollar US Government US Treasury Argentina Canada China Hong Kong India Taiwan Turkey Customised portfolios can be tailored toward your specific requirements Minimum size of USD100 million allows us to optimise diversification and enhanced returns Key Risks The value of investments can go down as well as up and as with any investment you may not receive back the amount originally invested. Exchange rate risk Investing in assets denominated in a currency other than that of the investor s own currency perspective exposes the value of the investment to exchange rate fluctuations. Credit risk Issuers of debt securities may fail to meet their regular interest and/or capital repayment obligations. All credit instruments therefore have potential for default. Higher yielding securities are more likely to default. Derivative risk The value of derivative contracts is dependent upon the performance of an underlying asset. A small movement in the value of the underlying can cause a large movement in the value of the derivative. Unlike exchange traded derivatives, over-the-counter (OTC) derivatives have credit risk associated with the counterparty or institution facilitating the trade. Operational risk The main risks are related to systems and process failures. Investment processes are overseen by independent risk functions which are subject to independent audit and supervised by regulators. Money Market Fund risk The fund aims to maintain a stable share price (excluding income) through investment in low risk, short-term securities. The market value of the securities held by the fund will fluctuate. During adverse market conditions there is no guarantee that a stable net asset value will be maintained. Asset backed securities (ABS) risk ABS are typically constructed from pools of assets (e.g. mortgages) that individually have an option for early settlement or extension, and have potential for default. Cash flow terms of the ABS may change and significantly impact both the value and liquidity of the contract. 1. Forward looking statements are not guarantees of future performance or events.

6 Global investments for Pensions schemes Global Pension Schemes can benefit from our global investment platforms and local insight. Experienced teams focus on a wide range of strategies to work on your pension needs through a consultative approach. We understand the risk associated with managing pension schemes, specially when underfunded. For multinational companies we recognise that the risk is multiplied and made more complex the more countries you operate in. Pensions requirements are dependent on the scheme itself and the country where it operates. Local expertise allows us to be aware of the regulatory, macro and legal environment within each pension operates. As pensions have local differences due to the regulatory environment, you need a global asset manager who can offer a central globalised investment strategy with local vehicles to give greater ease of governance and reduced fees. We have a long track record within investments and we can offer a suite of core holdings to be a strategic partner. Managing liabilities for Defined Benefit schemes Delivering sustainable income for Defined Contribution For DB schemes, liabilities have been increasing due to greater life expectancy, changes in legislation, volatility in markets and low bond yields. Insurance options to buy out liabilities have become too expensive. Many DB scheme managers are concerned about how to meet pay-out commitments, but the issue of growing liabilities can also affect the company s credit rating and potential corporate events like IPOs. DC schemes increasingly focus on solutions that can deliver stable and sustainable retirement incomes. Employers want to facilitate sensible decision-making, particularly since levels of engagement of scheme members vary broadly across countries and age groups. They also want to offer reliable, good value solutions to members. To help DB schemes to overcome these challenges, we focus on cost-efficient core holding, globalisation of investments, strong risk management for better use of risk budgets, liability-focused strategies, highly diversified investment solutions and bespoke solutions. You can leverage our platform and our proven experience in multi-asset investing. We can help you design suitable schemes to help your members save for their retirement. We also offer specially-designed income solutions to meet scheme members needs at and throughout their retirement. Source: HSBC Global Asset Management as at June
