Cumulative Return (%) Cumulative Return (%) Haitong Global RMB Fixed Income Fund (Class A) (The Sub-Fund of Haitong RMB Investment Fund Series) Monthly Report, Data as of 30 December 2016 IMPORTANT NOTES: 1. Haitong RMB Investment Fund Series - Haitong Global RMB Fixed Income Fund (the Sub-Fund ) is an investment fund and not a bank deposit. There is no guarantee of the repayment of principal. There is also no guarantee of dividend or distribution payments during the period you hold the units of Sub-Fund. The instruments invested by the Sub-Fund may fall in value and therefore your investment in Sub- Fund may suffer losses. 2. RMB is currently not freely convertible and is subject to exchange controls and restrictions. There is no guarantee that RMB will not depreciate. If you convert Hong Kong Dollar or any other currency into RMB so as to invest in Sub-Fund and subsequently convert the RMB redemption proceeds back into Hong Kong Dollar or any other currency, you may suffer a loss if RMB depreciates against Hong Kong Dollar or other currency. 3. The Sub-Fund is exposed to the credit/insolvency risk of issuers of RMB Income Instruments and bank deposits that Sub-Fund may invest in. RMB Income Instruments and bank deposits that Sub-Fund invests in are typically unsecured debt obligations and are not supported by any collateral. The Sub-Fund will be fully exposed to the credit/insolvency risk of its counterparties as an unsecured creditor. The financial market of mainland China is at an early stage of development, and most of the RMB Income Instruments are and will be unrated. 4. The quantity of RMB Income Instruments issued or distributed outside mainland China is currently limited. The Sub-Fund may hold a significant portion of assets in bank deposits if there are not sufficient RMB Income Instruments for the Sub-Fund to invest in. This may adversely affect the Sub-Fund s return and performance. 5. The Sub-Fund is subject to liquidity risk as there is currently no regular trading and no active secondary market for RMB Income Instruments. The Sub-Fund may suffer losses in trading such instruments. The bid and offer spread of the price of RMB Income Instruments may be large, so the Sub-Fund may incur significant trading and realization costs and may suffer losses accordingly. 6. You should not invest in the Sub-Fund unless the intermediary who sells it to you has explained to you that the Sub-Fund is suitable for you having regard to your financial situation, investment experience and objectives. 7. Investors should not invest in the Sub-Fund based on this document alone. Before making any investment decision, the investor should read the Sub-Fund s offering documents carefully including the risk factors. 8. Dividend of the Sub-Fund may be paid out of capital, subject to the Manager s discretion. Investor should note that where the payment of dividends are paid from or effectively out of capital, this represents and amounts to a return or withdrawal of part of the amount that have been originally invested or capital gains attributable to that and may result in an immediate decrease in the net asset value. A positive distribution does not imply a positive return. 9. The Sub-Fund may use derivative instruments (e.g. swaps and forwards) for hedging purposes. There can be no assurance that any hedging techniques will fully and effectively eliminate the risk exposure of the Sub-Fund. Derivative instruments may be illiquid and are complex in nature. In adverse situations, the Sub-Fund s use of derivatives for hedging may become ineffective and the Sub-Fund may suffer significant losses.

Investment Objective Haitong Global RMB Fixed Income Fund seeks long term capital growth and income in RMB terms by investing primarily in (i) fixed income and debt instruments; (ii) deposits; and (iii) collective investment schemes (collectively referred to as Income Instruments ). The majority of the Income Instruments are denominated in RMB. These may include but are not limited to, bills, notes, bonds, floating rate notes, deposits, negotiated deposits, money market instruments, certificates of deposit, commercial paper, exchangeable bonds and convertible bonds issued by issuers such as governments, government agencies, supranational entities, corporations, financial institutions and banks.

Cash and Overnight deposits 4.22% Manager s Comments Performance (Class A) Market Review In December, Offshore RMB bond market fell largely and the total return was -0.86% (valued in CNH). For different categories, High Yield Bond performed best and recorded -0.51%, Investment Grade performed the second and recorded -0.81% and Government Bond recorded -1.08%. 31.00 26.00 21.00 Both onshore and offshore RMB exchange rate experienced depreciation in December. USD/CNH spot rate was 6.9761 at the end of the month, depreciated 0.87% month to month (6.9162 at November-end). USD/CNY spot rate recorded 6.9450 at the end of month, depreciated 0.81% month to month (6.8894 at November-end). Market Outlook The China official manufacturing purchasing manager index (PMI) recorded 51.4 in December, which was slightly worse than the consensus 51.5, but stood above the expansion-contraction line five months in a row. More specifically, the Product Index decreased from 53.9 to 53.3 due to limiting the production activity in some poor air condition districts. On the other side, New Order Index kept stable at 53.2 mainly driven by the increasing of real estate and PPPs infrastructure investment. What s more, Raw-material Purchasing Price increased from 68.3 to 69.3 stimulated by the rising of inflation and enterprise profit. Finally, Raw-material Inventory decreased from 48.4 to 48.0. We think RMB exchange rate will be one of the main factors of the Dim Sum bond market for the whole year of 2017. In the short term, we keep cautious for the offshore RMB bond due to the huge volatility between November and December and the increasing capital outflow pressure at the beginning of 2017. For the mid-term, market expects that the most likely time for the next U.S. interest rate hike should be in June 2017, which will weaken the short-term strength of U.S. dollar. Therefore, we believe the depreciation pressure of RMB exchange rate will be released and Dim Sum bond market will be stabilized. 16.00 11.00 6.00 1.00-4.00 8/30/2010 8/30/2011 8/30/2012 8/30/2013 8/30/2014 8/30/2015 8/30/2016 Cumulative Performance 1 Month 3 Month 6 Month 1 Year 3 Years Since Inception** -0.25% 0.09% 1.79% 6.14% 15.06% 26.55% Cumulative Year Performance 2016 2015 2014 2013 2012 2011 2010 ## 6.14% 4.82% 3.42% 5.38% 6.12% -2.53% 0.91% **Inception date: 30 August 2010. ## Since inception date 30 August 2010 to 31 December 2010.

Haitong Global RMB Fixed Income Fund is a sub-fund of Haitong RMB Investment Fund Series which is a Hong Kong domiciled umbrella structure unit trust established by a trust deed dated 6 August 2010, as amended and restated from time to time. It is governed by the laws of Hong Kong. Objective and Investment Strategy Objective Haitong Global RMB Fixed Income Fund seeks long term capital growth and income in RMB terms by investing primarily in (i) fixed income and debt instruments; (ii) deposits; and (iii) collective investment schemes (hereinafter collectively referred to as Income Instruments ). The majority of the Income Instruments are (subject to the Investment Strategy below) denominated in RMB. The Sub-Fund seeks to invest in Income Instruments issued or distributed outside mainland China in the primary and secondary markets, some of which may be offered on a private placement basis. The Income Instruments that the Sub-Fund may invest in include, but are not limited to, bills, notes, bonds, floating rate notes, deposits, negotiated deposits, money market instruments, certificates of deposit, commercial paper, exchangeable bonds and convertible bonds issued by issuers such as governments, government agencies, supranational entities, corporations, financial institutions and banks. The issuers may or may not be domiciled in mainland China. For the avoidance of doubt, the Sub-Fund will not invest in any Income Instruments issued or distributed in mainland China through Qualified Foreign Institutional Investor quotas, RMB Qualified Foreign Institutional Investor quotas or other available channels and mechanisms. Subject to the Investment Strategy below, the Sub-Fund may invest in collective investment schemes which primarily invest in Income Instruments, provided that the 2

investments in (i) non-sfc-authorized collective investment schemes that are nonrecognized jurisdiction schemes shall not in aggregate exceed 10% of the Sub-Fund s total Net Asset Value; and (ii) those that are recognized jurisdiction schemes (being UCITS III schemes domiciled in the United Kingdom, Ireland and Luxembourg) or SFC-authorized collective investment schemes shall not in aggregate exceed 30% of the Sub-Fund s total Net Asset Value, unless the underlying collective investment scheme is SFC-authorized and the name and key investment information of the underlying collective investment scheme is disclosed in the Explanatory Memorandum. Where the Sub-Fund invests in any underlying collective investment scheme managed by the Manager or its connected persons, all initial charges on the underlying collective investment scheme will be waived. Further, the Manager will not obtain a rebate on any fees or charges levied by the underlying collective investment scheme or its manager. Investment Strategy The Sub-Fund seeks to invest primarily in Income Instruments denominated and settled in RMB ( RMB Income Instruments ) which are issued or distributed outside mainland China, but may invest in (i) Income Instruments denominated in RMB but settled in currencies other than RMB (e.g. USD and HKD) and (ii) Income Instruments denominated in currencies other than RMB ( Non-RMB Income Instruments ). Notwithstanding the above, the Sub-Fund will:- (a) invest at least 70% of its Net Asset Value in RMB Income Instruments; (b) limit any Non-RMB Income Instruments that are not hedged back to RMB to be up to 10% of its Net Asset Value; and (c) invest the remaining portion of its Net Asset Value in Non-RMB Income Instruments that are hedged back to RMB. For Non-RMB Income Instruments, the Manager may dynamically perform currency hedging to hedge the non-rmb currency exposure back to RMB, subject to the allocation of investments above. The Manager may also actively hedge against interest rate risks for any Income Instruments. For the purpose of currency and interest rate hedging, the Manager will make use of derivative instruments such as swaps, futures and deliverable and non-deliverable currency forwards.. The Sub-Fund does not currently intend to invest in any derivative instruments for investment purposes or in any structured deposits or products. The Manager will seek the prior approval of the SFC and provide at least one month s prior notice to Unitholders before the Manager changes such investment strategy. The Sub-Fund will not invest more than 10% of its Net Asset Value in non-investment grade securities issued and/or guaranteed by a single sovereign issuer. The Manager currently does not intend to enter into any securities lending, repurchase or reverse repurchase transactions or similar over-the-counter transactions in respect of the Sub-Fund. Prior approval will be sought from the SFC and at least one month s prior notice will be given to Unitholders should there be a change in such intention. The Manager seeks to achieve investment returns through active management of the major risks associated with Income Instruments: duration, term structure, sector allocation and product selection. The Manager will construct the portfolio to take advantage of the expected change in the 3

general level of RMB interest rates. The portfolio will consist of RMB Income Instruments and Non-RMB Income Instruments of different maturities and credit quality, and each instrument in the portfolio will be selected based on extensive fundamental research. What are the key risks? Investment involves risks. Please refer to the Explanatory Memorandum for details including the risk factors. 1. Investment risk The Sub-Fund is an investment fund and not a bank deposit. guarantee of the repayment of principal. There is no There is also no guarantee of dividend or distribution payments during the period you hold the units of the Sub-Fund. The instruments invested by the Sub-Fund may fall in value and therefore your investment in the Sub-Fund may suffer losses. 2. RMB currency risk RMB is currently not freely convertible and is subject to exchange controls and restrictions. Where an investor subscribes for non-rmb denominated classes of Units, the Manager may convert part or all of such subscriptions into RMB prior to investment at the applicable exchange rate and hence is subject to the foreign exchange risk. Currency conversion is also subject to availability of RMB at the relevant time (i.e. it is possible that there is not sufficient RMB for currency conversion in case of sizeable subscriptions in non-rmb denominated classes of Units) and this may affect the investors investment in the Sub-Fund. There is no guarantee that RMB will not depreciate. Investors may suffer a loss if (i) they convert Hong Kong Dollar or any other currency into RMB so as to invest in the RMB denominated classes of Units and subsequently convert the RMB redemption proceeds back into Hong Kong Dollar or such other currency or (ii) they invest in non-rmb denominated classes of Units in case of depreciation of RMB as the base currency of the Sub-Fund is RMB and the majority of the Sub-Fund s investments will be held in RMB Income Instruments and RMB denominated deposits. In calculating the value of non-rmb denominated or settled assets and the prices of non-rmb denominated classes of Units, the Manager will normally apply the exchange rate for offshore RMB market in Hong Kong (the CNH rate ). The CNH rate may be at a premium or discount to the exchange rate for onshore RMB market in the PRC (the CNY rate ) and there may be significant bid and offer spreads. The value of the Sub-Fund thus calculated will be subject to fluctuation. 3. Currency risk The principals and/or interests of the Sub-Fund s investment in Income Instruments may be settled in currencies other than RMB (e.g. USD or HKD). The movements in the exchange rates between RMB and such other currencies may adversely affect the Sub-Fund s performance. The currency of denomination of the Sub-Fund is in RMB. However, the Sub-Fund may invest in Non-RMB Income Instruments which may be denominated in 4

currencies other than RMB (e.g. USD or HKD). The performance of the Sub-Fund will therefore be affected by movements in the exchange rate between the currencies of the Non-RMB Income Instruments and the base currency of the Sub- Fund (i.e. RMB). Since the Manager aims to maximise returns for the Sub-Fund in terms of its base currency, investors in the Sub-Fund may be exposed to additional currency risk. 4. Credit risk of counterparties The Sub-Fund is exposed to the credit/insolvency risk of issuers of Income Instruments that the Sub-Fund will invest in. The Income Instruments that the Sub-Fund invests in are typically unsecured debt obligations and are not supported by any collateral. The Sub-Fund will be fully exposed to the credit/insolvency risk of its counterparties as an unsecured creditor. The financial market of mainland China is at an early stage of development, and most of the RMB Income Instruments are not unrated. These securities are subject to greater risks because of generally lower credit worthiness and liquidity, greater fluctuation in value and higher chance of default than investment grade securities. In the event of a default, investors may suffer a significant loss. 5. Limited pool of investments The quantity of RMB Income Instruments and Non-RMB Income Instruments issued or distributed outside mainland China may be limited. The Sub-Fund may hold a significant portion of assets in bank deposits if there are not sufficient suitable Income Instruments for the Sub-Fund to invest in. This may adversely affect the Sub-Fund s return and performance. Although the Manager expects that there will be sufficient issues of Income Instruments for the Sub-Fund to construct its investment portfolio, the choice of investments may not be as diverse as other types of funds. Securities held by the Sub-Fund may be issued by a limited number of issuer(s) or financial institution(s), and accordingly, there may be additional credit risk. In the event of a default, investors may suffer a significant loss. 6. Liquidity risk The Income Instruments in which the Sub-Fund invests may be subject to liquidity risk as there may not be regular trading or active secondary market. Therefore, certain Income Instruments may be difficult or impossible to sell, and this would affect the Sub-Fund s ability to acquire or dispose of such securities at their intrinsic value. As a result, this may have adverse impact on the Sub-Fund. The bid and offer spread of the price of RMB Income Instruments may be large, so the Sub- Fund may incur significant trading and realisation costs and may suffer losses accordingly. 7. Risks relating to payment of distributions out of capital Dividends may be distributed from income or capital of the Sub-Fund. The Sub- Fund may (a) pay dividends out of capital; or (b) pay dividends out of gross income while charging or paying all or part of the fees and expenses to, or out of, the capital of the Sub-Fund, resulting in an increase in distributable income for the payment of dividends by the Sub-Fund and the Sub-Fund may therefore 5

effectively pay dividends out of capital. If this is the case, investors should note that: (A) (B) payment of dividends out of capital represents a return or withdrawal of part of the investor s original investment or from any capital gains attributable to that original investment; and distributions in general, in particular distributions involving payment of dividends out of capital, or payment effectively out of capital, may result in an immediate decrease in the Net Asset Value of the relevant Units. 8. Hedging risk The Sub-Fund may use derivative instruments (e.g. swaps and forwards) for hedging purposes. There can be no assurance that any hedging techniques will fully and effectively eliminate the risk exposure of the Sub-Fund. The price of a derivative instrument can be very volatile. A derivative instrument is subject to the risk that the counterparty of the instrument will not fulfil its obligations to the Sub-Fund, and this may result in losses to the Sub-Fund. The availability of RMB forwards that could be used by the Sub-Fund for hedging purposes may be limited and costly. Therefore, the effectiveness of the hedging techniques used by the Manager may be subject to limitations. Derivative instruments may be illiquid and are complex in nature. In adverse situations, the Sub-Fund s use of derivatives for hedging may become ineffective and the Sub-Fund may suffer significant losses.

Class A (RMB) as a representative class to indicate the past performance of the Sub- Fund. The past performance information is not indicative of future performance. Unitholders may not get back the full amount invested. The computation basis of the performance is based on the calendar year end, NAVto-NAV, with dividend reinvested. These figures show by how much Class A (RMB) increased or decreased in value during the calendar year being shown. Performance data has been calculated in RMB including ongoing charges and excluding preliminary charge, redemption charge and switching charge you might have to pay. Where no past performance is shown there was insufficient data available in that year to provide performance.
