AGENDA December 01, 2015 @ The Fullerton Hotel TIME SESSION 8:30-9:00am Registration & Coffee 9:00-9:05am Opening Comments Andrew Shale, Publisher Asian Private Banker Breakout Roundtable Sessions Room 1 Room 2 Room 3 9:05-9:50am 9:55-10:40am A C B A C B Breakout Sessions will be held concurrently in separate rooms. 10:40-11:30am B C A 11:45-12:30pm Leaders Conversation Panel: The income conundrum for discretionary managers As volatility picks up and sentiments in the Asian market moderated, discretionary managers are observing an accelerated rate of inflows into a variety of standard, thematic and tailor-made mandates. Yield remains as the dominant component of the portfolio that has played a central role in dialogue with bankers and end-clients as the successful single-bond picking days are well behind us. Simultaneously, private banks are grappling with Asian clients inability to stomach drawdowns as poor volatility management leads to fairly swift redemptions. How are discretionary managers generating income for clients? Moderated by: Richard Otsuki Senior Reporter Asian Private Banker Conversation Catalysts: Garth Bregman Head of Discretionary Portfolio Management, Asia BNP Paribas Wealth Management Wei Mei Tan Head of Portfolio Solutions Asia Pacific Credit Suisse Tuan Huynh Regional Head of Portfolio Management, APAC Deutsche Asset & Wealth Management Yves Bogni Head, Program Management Office, Investment Management APAC UBS Wealth Management 12:30-1:30pm Luncheon PLATINUM SPONSORS GOLD SPONSOR

AGENDA December 01, 2015 @ The Fullerton Hotel TOPIC A Macro and FX exposures and their application in DPM Mandates Exposure to FX has historically been very transactional in nature. Surely there are enhanced ways to concentrate on asset allocation and extract alpha? A recent innovation sees DPM and Family Office investors gaining exposure to the opportunities for returns generated by active FX/Macro managers through investments which promote transparency and the flexibility of daily liquidity. This is a new way to gain exposure to up to 40 hedge fund managers in a more efficient, investor-friendly way. The hedge fund managers on the platform bring strong G7/G10 currency spot and option trading experience generating alpha through their trading activities and Citi provides a platform which facilitates liquidity. This means that DPMs can concentrate on allocation towards and between funds and serving their clients. Further, these exposures can be overlaid with optionality or leverage to tailor the investment return and risk. Moderated by Bernard Wai Managing Director - APAC Head of Private Client Solutions Citi Representative: Wen Yen Choo ASEAN Specialist Citi Private Client Solutions TOPIC B Asset allocation for DPM mandates Investing in the Age of the Central Banker Central bankers have always played a pivotal role in shaping the thinking of market participants. However, it was only with the onset of the Global Financial Crisis in 2008 that central bankers have come to dominate our lives (and portfolios) through the introduction of Quantitative Easing and other emergency, extraordinary and unconventional monetary policies. Such policies have led directly to coercion to invest in ever-riskier assets, and the hunt for yield has driven valuations across nearly every asset category to historically elevated levels. How should DPMs build portfolios and asset allocate effectively in such an environment? Andrew Parry will discuss why we should embrace diversification and a patient mindset in the face of uncertainty, and will demonstrate how, by envisioning assets as building blocks of risk and return, DPMs can achieve an asset allocation ready for the realities of the Age of the Central Banker. Moderated by Andrew Parry Head of Equities Representatives: Jakob Nilsson Director, Head of Business Development Asia Pacific Brian Sng Manager, Business Development Asia Pacific TOPIC C High yield floating rate bonds a new tool for a rising rate environment Now more than ever, investors are bracing themselves for the first rate hikes in many years in the developed world. This will create headwinds for traditional bond investors and, today, Jeik introduces a unique instrument, the high yield floating rate bond, which can overcome these headwinds and actually benefit from rate hikes. The session will also compare this instrument to alternate solutions to the rate tightening quandary. Moderated by Jeik Sohn Investment Director Representatives: Ben Cherrington Director, Intermediary Channels, Asia Pacific Sophia Shi Relationship Manager PLATINUM SPONSORS GOLD SPONSOR

From our offices in London, Singapore, New York and Boston, we manage award-winning equity funds and segregated portfolios, with expertise in Global, Emerging Markets, Asian, Japanese, European, US and UK equities. Our success has been founded upon recruiting experienced fund managers with proven investment pedigrees. They are attracted by our entrepreneurial approach and lack of bureaucracy, the latter enabling them to focus solely on investing without the distractions that can arise at a larger company. And our fund managers have complete investment freedom - there is no house view on economies, markets, sectors or stocks. This leads to a diversity of views and approaches across our investment professionals and insulates us from the dangers of groupthink. This intellectual latitude and the absence of bureaucratic practices associated with many larger fund management houses has led to extremely low turnover amongst our investment professionals. M&G is one of Europe s largest active asset managers, known for its conviction-led and long-term approach to investing that has been investing on behalf of individual and institutional clients for more than 80 years. Today we manage assets of over US$403 billion (as at 30 June 2015) for clients across Europe and Asia. Our investment edge is in our people. With approximately 1,600 professionals worldwide, 274 of which are dedicated to fund management, we remain at the forefront of investment thinking, constantly seeking to develop our product range to provide the best investment opportunities for our investors.
