Opportunities for Investors in the Search for Yield 2. A Mainstream Asset Class That Should Not Be Ignored 3. Potential Long-Term Opportunities Driven by Investor Demand 4. The Value of Dedicated Macroeconomic Research 5. The Need for a Bottom-up Selection Process Emerging Market Corporate Bonds could remain fertile ground for investors with a selective approach The asset class offers attractive yields compared with US corporates Emerging Market Corporate Bonds delivered solid returns over the past decade, attracting huge inflows for most of the period before experiencing modest outflows induced by the recent tapering debate. The resilience of Emerging Market Corporate Bonds is a reflection of the evolution of the asset class, the demand structure and solid fundamentals. Despite the challenges that lie ahead related to the potential for higher US interest rates, domestic and global macro factors and political risks, we believe that Emerging Market Corporate Bonds continue to offer fertile ground for investors with a selective approach. 1. Opportunities for Investors in the Search for Yield EM Corporate bond yields can still help satisfy the search for yield. This is especially true when compared with US corporates, against which they cheapened significantly over the past two years amid rising default rates in EMs, Fed tapering concerns and risk aversion. Spreads Over US Corporates Remain Wide on Historical Basis EM vs US IG Spread Differential Average Source: Bank of America Merrill Lynch. Data as of March 31, EM vs US HY Spread Differential Average 1
2 USD Billion PERSPECTIVES The Fertile Soil of Corporate Bond Market May 2014 the size and liquidity of a mature market 2. A Mainstream Asset Class that Should Not be Ignored Today, the size and the liquidity of the EM corporate bond market is comparable to that of mature markets. At $1.1 trillion, the asset class has recently surpassed US High Yield in size, and has become a main building block of EM investments. Asset Class Growth in Historical Perspective 1,400 1,200 1, EM Corporates US HY EM Sovereigns Source: Bank of America Merrill Lynch. Data as of April 30, EM corporate issuance has risen aggressively in the past few years due to the low interest rate levels in Developed Markets and the efforts by leading corporate issuers to diversify funding sources away from the banking sector in response to global commercial bank deleveraging. A structural broadening of investor base may help to absorb issuance 3. Potential Long-Term Opportunities Driven by Investor Demand With respect to EM demand, a structural broadening of the investor base, particularly from the institutional side, has so far helped to absorb the large corporate supply. Strategic inflows to EM fixed income remained positive last year, reaching $26 billion for the full year 1. Among institutional investors, insurance companies and pension funds in particular have invested in EM bonds and their presence is expected to increase according to OECD estimates 2. Central bank reserve managers and foreign reserve managers, who tend to be conservative investors, have been cautiously diversifying into EMs, while Sovereign Wealth Funds have also entered the market. Given the strategic nature of their mandates, we believe flows from institutional investors are generally stable, althought they are of course likely to recede should there be a severe crisis or noteworthy downgrade events. Turning to US retail and institutional investors, their allocation to emerging markets doubled from 0.7% in 2006 to 1.4% in This is still relatively small, especially in the context of the EM share of global market capitalization, and suggests the potential for future increases. 1 J.P.Morgan 2014 Outlook: The rate hiker s guide to the EM corporate space, March Ref in IMF, Financial Stability Report, March

Morgan Global High-Yield Bond Index 39% 13% 11% Source: IMF, Financial Stability Report, April US investors include retail and institutional investors. The assessment of country risk is crucial when investing in corporate market 4. The Value of Dedicated Macroeconomic Research The macroeconomic framework and the assessment of country risk are significant factors to consider when investing in EM corporates. As global factors such as the slowdown in China's growth and the approaching end of QE in the US are weakening support for EM inflows, domestic EM factors are becoming more important. In this vein, country risk has been a factor in the underperformance of corporates in the fragile five - Brazil, India, Indonesia, South Africa and Turkey - relative to the overall EM corporate index in the recent crisis.

4 PERSPECTIVES The Fertile Soil of Corporate Bond Market May 2014 Risk factors to consider in this context include electoral calendars, tensions related to the situation in Ukraine and, on a more long-term basis, progress of EMs in achieving sustainable growth paths and implementing structural reforms. 5. The Need for a Bottom-up Selection Process In our view, corporate fundamentals look generally solid. While EM corporates have, in general, raised their debt ratios, gross and net leverage ratios are still in line with US corporates, and even a touch lower than the US in HY. Overall, our assessment of EM corporate balance sheets is positive. Historical Evolution of Gross Leverage in EM HY and US HY Mar-06 Mar-07 Mar-08 Mar-09 Mar-10 Mar-11 Mar-12 Mar-13 EM HY Leverage Source: BofA Merrill Lynch Global Research, data as of September 30, US HY Leverage A case by case approach is important to understand the ability of specific corporate entities to manage their debt burdens An issue to monitor is the degree to which reliance on external debt financing impacts a borrower's currency exposure. A mismatch between domestic assets and foreign liabilities, which affected sovereign countries in the 90 s, could be a problem for some businesses in the case of a sharp depreciation of local currencies. There is a broad spectrum of gross leverage as of 2Q13 whether viewed from the country or rating category perspective. The wide range of country fundamentals, debt structures, balance-sheet maturities and currency exposures requires a highly selective approach to identifying critical issues and the best-run corporates. 4

The result has been the formation of a mainstream asset class that is fertile ground for investors seeking attractive returns. We believe that a case-by-case approach is important, not only to select opportunities in the market, but also to assess the ability of specific corporate entities to manage their debt burdens. This is crucial given the increase in the foreign ownership of debt in some emerging markets, which creates a vulnerability to periods of increased risk aversion and to any unexpectedly rapid increase in US interest rates. Pioneer Investments considers both active asset allocation and bottom-up security selection the key drivers for generating alpha. By looking across the widest possible universe of investments, we aim to create more diverse portfolios that reflect the full market opportunity, while trying to minimize the risk of permanent capital impairment. With experienced portfolio managers and a dedicated team of credit research analysts, we believe we can offer a solid framework for clients who are considering investing in the EM Corporate asset class. 5
