The value of an investment can go down as well as up and is not guaranteed. The above attribution data was sourced from FactSet which uses bottom up methodology whereby constituents of both the index and the fund are priced at the same point in time thus removing timing differences. FactSet returns do not take into account Transaction costs or Management fees. FactSet assumes trades go through at closing prices rather than the actual price that may have been traded at during the day. The accounting data used by FactSet is un-audited, whereas the data used for actual fund performance is audited, therefore any subsequent cleaning of data will not be reflected in FactSet. 27

Schroder Frontier Markets Composite Disclosures as of : December 31, 2012 Definition of the Firm The Firm is defined as all accounts managed by Schroder Investment Management in the UK and US, by wholly owned subsidiaries of Schroders PLC. Prior to January 1, 2007 SIM London & SIM North America existed as two separate Firms which were compliant & verified as separate entities until December 31, 2006. The consolidation of these two Firms was made as part of a move towards creating one global Firm. Composite and Firm assets reported prior to January 1, 2007 represent those of the legacy firm which managed the product. Prior to January 1, 2011 the SPrIM (Schroder Property Investment Management) Firm existed separate to the Schroder Investment Management UK and US Firm, from January 1, 2011 these Firms have been combined into a single firm. A complete list and description of the Firm's composites and performance results is available upon request. Composite Definition Accounts included in the Schroder Frontier Markets seek to achieve returns above the MSCI Frontier Markets (NDR) index (or a similar benchmark) by providing capital growth primarily through investment in equity and equity related securities of frontier markets companies. Frontier markets are countries included in the MSCI Frontier Markets Index or any other recognized Frontier Markets financial index. None of the accounts in the Composite use leverage. Composite Construction New accounts are included from the beginning of the first full month of management on a discretionary basis. Terminated accounts are excluded from the end of the last full month of discretionary management. This Composite has no minimum asset level for inclusion. The composite currency is US Dollar Composite Inception Date: 12-31-2010 Composite Creation Date: 01-07-2011 Performance Calculation The portfolio returns are time-weighted rates of return that are adjusted for cash flows. Portfolio returns are combined using beginning of period asset weights to produce the composite return. Periodic returns are geometrically linked to produce annual returns. Dividends on equities are recognized net of irrecoverable withholding tax. Since January 1999 dividends have been recognized as of the ex-dividend date having previously been recognized on a cash basis. Performance results are presented before the deduction of management fees and custodian fees but after trading expenses. Fee Schedule The fee scale applied to the composite is 1.5% p.a. Dispersion The dispersion of annual returns is measured by the asset weighted standard deviation of portfolio returns represented within the composite for the full year provided a minimum of 5 portfolios are available.

Important information This document does not constitute an offer to anyone, or a solicitation by anyone, to subscribe for shares of Schroder International Selection Fund (the Company ). Nothing in this document should be construed as advice and is therefore not a recommendation to buy or sell shares. Subscriptions for shares of the Company can only be made on the basis of its latest Key Investor Information Document and prospectus, together with the latest audited annual report (and subsequent unaudited semi-annual report, if published), copies of which can be obtained, free of charge, from Schroder Investment Management (Luxembourg) S.A. An investment in the Company entails risks, which are fully described in the prospectus. Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future results, prices of shares and the income from them may fall as well as rise and investors may not get the amount originally invested. Schroders has expressed its own views and opinions in this document and these may change. This document is issued by Schroder Investment Management Ltd., 31, Gresham Street, EC2V 7QA, who is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority. For your security, all telephone calls are recorded. Risk Considerations The capital is not guaranteed. In order to access restricted markets, the fund may invest in structured products. Should the counterparty default, the value of these structured products may be nil. Investments denominated in a currency other than that of the share-class may not be hedged. The market movements between those currencies will impact the share-class. Where the fund (or the manager) holds a significant percentage of the shares of one or more companies, it may be difficult to sell those shares quickly. It may affect the value of the fund and, in extreme market conditions, its ability to meet redemption requests upon demand. Investments in small companies can be difficult to sell quickly which may affect the value of the fund and, in extreme market conditions, its ability to meet redemption requests upon demand. The Fund will not hedge its market risk in a down cycle. The value of the fund will move similarly to the markets. Emerging markets will generally be subject to greater political, legal, counterparty and operational risk.
