The total net assets decreased during the year from EUR 18.25 to EUR 16.49 million. Net redemptions of shares were EUR 2.03 million. INVESTMENT STRATEGY The Sub-Fund investment objective is to achieve long term capital growth by investing in a portfolio of bonds denominated in any international currency including structured bonds such as but not limited to constant maturity swap bonds, credit linked securities, yield curve bonds and capital guaranteed securities. In the event of investment in such structured bonds the investment restrictions set out below shall apply both to the issuer of such structured bonds and also to the issuer of any underlying security. The Sub-Fund will invest at least 90% of its net assets in grade bonds which, at the time of investment, have a Standard & Poor's rating of BBB- or higher or are considered by the Investment Manager to have a similar credit quality. The remaining 10% of the Sub-Fund's net assets may be invested in bonds with no rating or with a rating lower than BBB-.

Responsibility of the Board of Directors of the SICAV for the financial statements The Board of Directors of the SICAV is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with Luxembourg legal and regulatory requirements relating to the preparation of the financial statements and for such internal control as the Board of Directors of the SICAV determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. Responsibility of the "Réviseur d'entreprises agréé" Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing as adopted for Luxembourg by the "Commission de Surveillance du Secteur Financier". Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the judgment of the "Réviseur d'entreprises agréé", including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the "Réviseur d'entreprises agréé" considers internal control relevant to the entity's preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity's internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by the Board of Directors of the SICAV, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

The contribution has been done based on the net asset value as at 31 December 2012 (calculated on 1 January 2013) with effect 1 January 2013 and with a one to one exchange ratio. 2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The financial statements are established in accordance with the Luxembourg legal and regulatory requirements concerning undertakings for collective investment. 2.1 Valuation of investments (a) The value of any cash at hand or on deposit, bills and demand notes and accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, dividends and interests declared or due but not yet collected will be deemed to be the full value thereof, unless it is unlikely that such values are received in full, in which case the value thereof will be determined by deducting such amount the Directors consider appropriate to reflect the true value thereof. (b) Securities and money market instruments listed on a stock exchange or traded on any other regulated market will be valued at the last available price on such stock exchange or market. If a security is listed on several stock exchanges or markets, the last available price on the stock exchange or market, which constitutes the main market for such securities, will be determining. (c) Securities and money market instruments not listed on any stock exchange or traded on any regulated market will be valued at their last available market price. (d) Securities for which no price quotation is available or for which the price referred to in (b) and/or (c) is not representative of the fair market value, will be valued prudently, and in good faith on the basis of their reasonable foreseeable sales prices. (e) Contracts for differences are valued at fair value based on the last available price of the underlying security. (f) Investments in investment funds of the open ended type are taken at their latest net asset values reported by the administrator of the relevant investment fund. CO Financial futures contracts (on securities, interest rates and indices) are valued at the exchange quoted settlement price. While the contracts are open, unrealised gains and losses are recorded on "mark-to market" basis at the valuation date. When a contract is closed, the Fund records a realised gain or loss equal to the difference between the proceeds from, or cost of, the closing transaction and the price at which the contract was originally written. (h) Options contracts (on securities, currencies, interest rates and indices) are valued on the basis of the last available trade price. (i) Forward foreign exchange contracts are valued by reference to the forward rate prevailing at the valuation date. 15
