6 ACCESSING HEDGE FUND STRATEGIES WITH CONFIDENCE LYXOR MULTI-MANAGER SOLUTIONS
7 AIFMD CONFERS MORE INVESTOR PROTECTION A REINFORCED INVESTMENT FRAMEWORK: REGULATED & ONSHORE IN EUROPE 7 A REGULATION OF THE ACTORS: THE ALTERNATIVE INVESTMENT FIRMS KEY BENEFITS KEY PROVISIONS ACCESS TO GENUINE HEDGE FUNDS» AIF: New onshore, EU-regulated Alternative Investment Fund for professional investors IN A REGULATED FORMAT» AIFM: Regulation of Alternative Investment Fund Managers managing AIFs FULLY ON-SHORE IN EUROPE» No additional trading restrictions under AIFMD (unlike UCITS)» Additional depository requirements for control MORE INVESTOR PROTECTIONS» Remuneration guidelines for Alternative Investment Fund Managers managing AIFs ENHANCED DISCLOSURE TO INVESTORS & REGULATORS» Reporting obligations to investors and regulators The above is a summary of the key provisions of the AIFM Directive and is not intended to be exhaustive.
8 UCITS HAS OFFERED INVESTOR PROTECTION FOR YEARS UCITS IS A WELL ESTABLISHED LABEL ACROSS EUROPE AND BEYOND 8 A PRODUCT REGULATION: ALTERNATIVE STRATEGIES IN MUTUAL FUND FORMAT KEY FEATURES UNIVERSAL ELIGIBILITY OF MUTUAL FUND FORMAT KEY PROVISIONS» UCITS: Onshore, EU-regulated Mutual Funds designed for all investors including retail under Mifid COMMERCIALLY EFFICIENT» UCITS: European passport enables broad distribution cross-borders INVESTMENT CONSTRAINTS» Alternative strategies are constrained: eligible instruments, leverage/var, shorting techniques, liquidity» Diversification rules for investors protection TRANSPARENCY BENEFITS» Simplified prospectus, more transparency on fees in the KID SOON UCITS V WILL COME» UCITS V will align UCITS along AIFM-D in March 2016 The above is a summary of the key provisions of the UCITS Regulation Directive and is not intended to be exhaustive.
9 BUT REGULATED ALTERNATIVES ARE STILL HEDGE FUNDS 9 MANAGER SELECTION AND RISK MANAGEMENT ARE PARAMOUNT Alternative UCITS and AIFs are a source of diversification for investors, but invest in complex strategies that require a specific approach in terms of fund selection and risk management The pedigree of the manager, the performance engine, the operational structure and the risk monitoring process are just as important investment criteria as they are in the offshore hedge fund world With more than 17 years of experience, Lyxor is an expert in analyzing and selecting hedge funds Typical Risks when selecting a Regulated Alternative Fund* How to Mitigate These Risks? * The full disclosure of risks are provided in the legal documentation of the Fund.
10 AND REGULATION IS NOT AN EXEMPTION OF DUE DILIGENCE 10 Although AIFMD and UCITS offer greater investor protection the necessity of a thorough Due Diligence still applies and the value proposition of managed accounts is intact HEDGE FUNDS OFFSHORE AIFMD COMPLIANT UCITS COMPLIANT FRAUD RISK REPUTATIONAL RISK STRATEGY REPLICATION RISK LIQUIDITY RISK VALUATION RISK RISK MANAGEMENT (MARKET & COUNTERPARTY RISK) TRANSPARENCY TO INVESTORS ONSHORE REGULATED NO LIQUIDITY SAFEGUARDS INDEPENDENT BUT NOT EXTERNAL NO LIMITS IMPOSED BY REGULATORS REGULATED ON- SHORE (EU)

19 AIFM-D AND UCITS ARE COMPLEMENTARY THE CASE FOR CONVERGENCE IN REGULATIONS 19 For investors: Economic opportunities can be accessed in UCITS and/or AIFM format, it depends on the strategy being considered and the preference for liquidity Private Banks, Insurance Cos for Life products prefer UCITS Pension Funds, Insurance Cos for own account prefer AIFM or Offshore funds according to their liquidity concerns For hedge funds managers UCITS and AIFM Funds both allow an active marketing to each audience group The passporting across Europe simplifies distribution Both regulations facilitate the promotion of alternative strategies and this is good for investors at this point of the economic cycle UCITS V will come into force in March 2016 and a partial convergence towards AIFM-D is expected Vibrant segment of the asset management industry and watch out for new launches...
