Performance to 30th September 2017 Fund Factsheet IFSL Sinfonia Risk Targeted Fund Range

IFSL Sinfonia OEIC s Performance to 30 th September 2017 Investment Commentary Market Overview Global equities achieved their 11th consecutive monthly gain in September. The MSCI AC World (in USD terms) gained 1.8%, bringing its year-to-date gain to 15.4%. The FTSE100 index fell slightly by 0.7% in the period as interest rate expectations fed in GBP strength and subsequently the externally exposed leading index. Global equity prices were driven by several factors in September. First of all, investors were reassured by the UN Security Council s management of the North Korean crisis following the latest North Korean provocations which helped push geopolitical risk to the back-burner, at least on the financial markets. Secondly, President Trump and Congressional Democrats managed to make headway on several fronts, including raising the debt ceiling until December and releasing emergency assistance for Hurricane Harvey victims. This gave investors more confidence in the announced business and individual tax cuts, which the administration has described as very ambitious. Thirdly, economic indicators are still solid, particularly in the Eurozone. Oil prices saw good increases (+9.3% WTI to USD 51.6/ bbl.), more than making up the ground lost in August. In rates markets, government yields rose in most of the major economies as political tensions receded, which saw a retreat from the safe haven assets that benefitted during the previous month. The 10-year German Bund yield rose by 10bp in September, including a brief foray above 0.50%, to end the month at 0.46% and in the US the 10-year yield ended the month at 2.33%, i.e. up by 21bp on the month. But it was the UK Gilt which saw the largest shift in the major bond markets rising from 1.03% to close September at 1.36% as central bank indicators turned more hawkish. Among G10 currencies, the biggest move last month was the appreciation in Sterling (+4.6% vs. the euro, +4.1% vs. USD), which reflects a shift in expectations of Bank of England monetary policy. At its meeting on the 14th September, the BoE kept its key rate at 0.25%, as expected, but did say that some removal of monetary stimulus is likely to become necessary in the coming months to bring inflation back to its target rate. In August, inflation came to 2.9% and could continue to accelerate in the coming months. This trend would offer a window to act by the end of the year. The shift in Theresa May s tone towards a constructive spirit on Brexit, according to European negotiators, gives the BoE another reason to reverse some of the measures put through last year in the wake of the referendum.

IFSL Sinfonia OEIC s Performance to 30 th September 2017 Updates Sinfonia Adventurous Growth Going into the period, the portfolio held a Short UK vs European Equities position initiated for both earnings/ valuation reasons and further with consideration to the turbulent political landscape. Whilst consensus earnings in the UK had moderated as we expected, the UK equity market had not suffered as a result. On the other side of the trade the recent EUR strength, while benefiting us from a currency perspective, causes headwinds for EU companies. Therefore, on balance we chose to exit the trade in order to capture some positive performance. Later in the month the fund rotated some allocation from US Large Cap equities into US Small Caps as we look to benefit from positive traction rebuilding on US Tax and domestic reform measures. We continue to keep an underweight on investment grade credit strategy in the portfolio which proved a positive strategy in September. While Local Equity performances were reasonable over the month the strength of GBP detracted from this in the portfolio.

IFSL Sinfonia OEIC s September 2017 Asset Class Returns Wondering which asset class to invest in for the best returns? Good luck! An asset class is a broad group of securities or investments that have similar financial characteristics, such as gilts or equities. The chart below shows the best performing to worst performing asset class each year. No single asset class is a consistent winner which is why having a blend of assets is so important.

IFSL Sinfonia OEIC s September 2017 Asset Class Returns Diversification reduces risk Predicting market movements over the long-term is impossible. It is very rare for a single asset class to outperform another consistently. That s why it makes sense to invest in a wide range of different assets rather than try to predict short-term market movements. Over time, a diversified portfolio could smooth your overall return, giving you a more balanced and consistent outcome compared to a single asset portfolio. Your financial adviser can help you decide which IFSL Sinfonia portfolio best suits your personal circumstances, time horizon, capacity for loss and attitude to risk. Each portfolio invests in a wide range of assets and is managed to a set level of risk. Because the portfolios are risk targeted, they will always stay at the same level of risk. Potential return Income Cautious Managed 15% 30% 55% Income & Growth 15% 45% 40% Balanced Managed 30% 45% 25% Adventurous Growth 55% 5% 40% 30% and Fixed Interest Investment 70% Global Equity Risk Risk Warning Past performance is not a guide to the future performance. The value of an investment and income are not guaranteed and can in fact fall as well as rise as a result of market fluctuations. You may not get back the original amount invested. Investments in stocks and shares do not have the same degree of capital security which is afforded with a deposit account. The levels and basis of taxation are subject to change and their value depends on the individual circumstances of the investor.
