Why consider investing in emerging markets? Structural factors Emerging markets are key drivers of global growth, accounting for 40% of the world s GDP and contributing 70% to global GDP growth 1 But accounting for only 12% of the global equity market Attractive demographic profile Rising disposable income and middle class expansion Potential for structural improvements in: productivity governance and regulatory framework Cyclical factors Emerging market equities have offered superior long-term earnings growth at 16% vs. 14% for developed markets 2 But are trading at a 27% discount relative to developed market peers Some EM currencies remain undervalued Certain EMs have current account surpluses and lower levels of government debt than developed markets Past results are not a guarantee of future results. Emerging markets are volatile and may suffer from liquidity problems. The information provided is not intended to be comprehensive or to provide advice. Data to 31 August 2018.

Composite information in US$ New World Compliance The Capital Group Companies ("Capital Group") claims compliance with the Global Investment Performance Standards (GIPS ) and has prepared and presented this report in compliance with the GIPS standards. Capital Group has been independently verified by Deloitte & Touche, LLP for the periods 1 January 2008 to 31 December 2016. The verification report is available upon request. Verification assesses whether (1) the firm has complied with all the composite construction requirements of the GIPS standards on a firm-wide basis and (2) the firm's policies and procedures are designed to calculate and present performance in compliance with the GIPS standards. Verification does not ensure the accuracy of any specific composite presentation. Firm definition The "Firm" is defined as Capital Group and includes all portfolios, excluding Capital International Private Equity Funds ("CIPEF"), managed within its subsidiaries and divisions. The Firm manages equity assets through three investment groups. These groups make investment and proxy voting decisions independently. Fixed income investment professionals provide fixed income research and investment management across the Capital organization; however, for securities with equity characteristics, they act solely on behalf of one of the three equity investment groups. Composite The composite consists of all discretionary portfolios that are managed to the global capital appreciation strategy, with a focus on exposure to emerging economies. The strategy seeks to provide long-term capital appreciation. Portfolios included in the composite primarily invest in securities of issuers based in "qualified developing countries", as well as in equity securities of issuers based in the developed world with significant assets or revenues attributable to exposure to developing countries. These portfolios also invest in bond offering exposure to developing countries. Composite inception date is 1 July 1999. Composite creation date is 31 March 2013. Index Index represents the MSCI MSCI AC World Index. Index results are net of withholdings taxes on dividends, interest and capital gains. Indices were obtained from published sources and have not been examined by an independent accounting firm. Exchange rates For periods prior to 1 January 2011, the Firm's portfolios may use the Reuters Closing Spot Rates taken at 4:00 p.m. London time or the Reuters Spot Rates taken at 11:00 a.m. Pacific time as sources for exchange rates. The majority of composite benchmarks, published by index providers, use the Reuters Closing Spot Rates taken at 4:00 p.m. London time as source for exchange rates. In addition, the Firm uses the WM Closing Spot Rates taken at 4:00 p.m. to convert composites and benchmarks from base currency into any other reporting currency. Presentation of results and fees Composite results reflect the reinvestment of dividends, interest and other earnings. Results are net of withholding taxes on dividends, interest and capital gains. Actual withholding tax rates vary according to the country of denomination and tax status of each portfolio. Composite gross results are presented before management fees but after all trading expenses. The composite may include portfolios with gross results that reflect the deduction of certain administrative fees. Actual fees may vary depending on, among other things, the applicable fee schedule and portfolio size. Past performance does not guarantee future results. The starting annual management fee rate for an investment from an institutional investor in New World is 0.875%. Other fee rates may apply depending on the investment vehicle, size of investment and investor profile. Annual composite dispersion The composite dispersion measure presented is the asset-weighted standard deviation. This is a measurement of internal dispersion that represents the distribution of individual portfolio returns around the asset-weighted mean. Portfolios are only included in each dispersion calculation if they are present in the composite for the entire period. The asset-weighted standard deviation dispersion measure is included for full calendar years except where the composite contains five portfolios or less for the full year. Standard deviation The annualized three-year standard deviation measures the variability of the returns over the preceding 36- month period. Standard deviation is not presented for periods where 36 monthly composite returns are not available. Number of portfolios Periods that end with five portfolios or less are not presented. Valuation The Firm's valuation policy, although in accordance with the GIPS Valuation Principles, may allow for some differences among portfolios within the composite based upon whether a given portfolio adjusts the values of certain non-u.s. securities based on certain U.S. market movements.
