IBFIM

Unit prices and distributions payable, if any, may go down as well as up. Prospective Unit Holders should read and understand the contents of the Master Prospectus and, if necessary, should consult their adviser(s). Past performance of the Funds is not an indication of its future performance. For information concerning certain risk factors whi ch should be considered by prospective investors, see “Risk Factors” commencing on page 54. Investors who intend to finance an investment in a Shariah-compliant fund, or for that matter any Shariah-compliant investment, are advised to seek f or Islamic financing to finance their investment.


54

5. RISK FACTORS General Risks Whilst the Manager believes that the investment policy will be effective and that investment in unit trust funds may be rewarding, investors should be aware that there are risks associated with their investment in unit trust funds. a) Market Risk

Any purchase of securities will involve an element of risk. A unit trust fund that principally invests in listed stocks will be prone to the fluctuation in the performance of the stock markets, caused by changing market conditions as a result of global, regional or national economic conditions, political developments, governmental policies and social environment which will in turn affect the price of the units.

b) Particular Stock Risk

Where a unit trust fund has investments in stocks, any large fluctuations in the value of a particular stock may cause the price of the units to move as well. This impact may however be mitigated by investing in a wide portfolio of investments, thus spreading the element of risk.

c) Management Company Risk

The performance of the unit trust fund depends on, amongst other things, the expertise of the management company. Poor management of the fund will jeopardise the investment of unit holders through loss of capital gains of the fund. Poor management may also lead to losses to unit holders.

d) Liquidity Risk

This refers to the risk that the securities invested in cannot be readily sold and converted into cash without incurring significant loss in value. This may arise when the trading volume is low and/or where there is a lack of demand for the security. If a unit trust fund has a large portfolio of stocks issued by smaller companies, the relatively illiquidity of these stocks can cause the value of the fund to drop. This is because there are generally less ready buyers of such stocks compared with the stocks of larger and more established companies.

e) Credit Risk

Credit risk or default risk refers to the possibility of deterioration of a fixed income securities /sukuk’s credit quality. The credit quality of a fixed income securities/sukuk represents the ability of the issuer to make timely interest/profit and/or principal repayments/payment in relation to the fixed income securities/sukuk. This is often reflected in the credit rating assigned by qualified credit rating agencies. Credit risk also refers to the possibility of the issuer or financial institution of securities, instruments or deposit placements will not be able to make timely payments of interest / profit or principal payment on the maturity date. This may lead to a default in the payment of interest/profit or principal payment and ultimately may lead to a reduction in the value of the funds.

f) Interest Rate Risk The risk refers to the effect of interest rate changes on the performance of a fixed income securities/sukuk portfolio. In the event of rising interest rates, prices of fixed income securities/demand for sukuk will decrease and vice versa. Meanwhile, fixed income securities/sukuk with longer maturity and lower coupon/profit rates are more sensitive to interest rate changes.

As for Shariah-compliant funds, the interest rate is a general indicator that will have an impact on the management of funds regardless of whether it is a Shariah-compliant fund or otherwise. It does not in any way suggest that these funds will invest in conventional financial instruments.

g) Inflation Risk

A unit trust fund is subject to the risk of an investor’s investment not growing proportionately to the inflation rate, thereby decreasing the investor’s purchasing power even though the investment in monetary terms may have increased.

h) Non-Compliance Risk

This refers to the current and prospective risk to the unit trust fund and the investors’ interest arising from non-compliance of regulations imposed by the Act and the Guidelines, deeds, prospectuses and/or manager’s internal policies and procedures by the manager. Risk of non-compliance can lead to diminished reputation, reduced franchise value, limited business opportunities and reduced expansion potential for the company. Accordingly, non-compliance may affect the investor’s investments by causing a fall in the value of the unit trust fund.

i) Reclassification of Shariah Status Risk

The risk that the currently held Shariah-compliant equities in the portfolio of Shariah-compliant funds may be reclassified as Shariah non-compliant in the periodic review of the equities by the SACSC, the


55

Funds’ Shariah adviser or the Shariah boards of the relevant Islamic indices. If this occurs, the manager will take the necessary steps to dispose of such equities.

j) Currency Risk

Where a unit trust fund is invested in foreign currency or assets denominated in a foreign currency, the fund may be exposed to currency fluctuation risks as well as changes in foreign exchange regulations. There is a risk of potential price fluctuations in the value of foreign securities because of changing current exchange rates. If this occurs, there is a possibility that the unit price of the fund may be adversely affected.

k) Country Risk

Investments may be affected by the political and economic conditions of the country in which the investments are made. There is a risk of price fluctuations in foreign securities because of political, financial and economic events in foreign countries. If this occurs, there is a possibility that the unit price of the fund may be adversely affected.

l) Loan Financing Risk

The returns for unit trusts cannot be guaranteed and as such, we do not recommend that you obtain a loan to finance your investment. However, if you choose to do so, you need to understand that:

• borrowing increases the possibility of losses as well as gains; • if the value of your investment falls below a certain level, you may be asked by the financial institution

to reduce the outstanding loan to the required level; and • the investors’ ability to pay loan installments may be affected by unforeseen circumstances in the

future such as loss of employment. Shariah-compliant unit trust fund’s investor is advised to seek for Islamic financing to finance their acquisition.

Measures to Check Risks As some of the risks involved are inherent and may not be within the direct control of the Manager, it is not possible to completely hedge all risks. The Manager will take prudent and reasonable steps to anticipate foreseeable risks and to mitigate potential loss to Unit Holders. Such steps would include:

Economic Intelligence A network of research and information providers can give advance foresight on global and domestic developments, which can give impact on investments. Such information will give the fund manager lead-time in restructuring the portfolio, if required.

Fundamentally Focused Investments

While the Manager cannot foresee unfortunate events, which can impact our market overnight, the Manager can mitigate this risk by investing in stocks with fundamentals. This will ensure a more stable portfolio focusing on longer term consistent returns rather than speculative issues.

Research Driven Instruments

The fund manager will conduct regular visits to companies invested in to ensure expectations are at least maintained. Any deviation from prior expectation will enable the fund manager to respond accordingly.

Specific Risks Risks related to KPF

Market Risk Any purchase of securities will involve an element of risk. The Fund that principally invests in listed stocks will be prone to the fluctuation in the performance of the stock markets, caused by changing market conditions as a result of global, regional or national economic conditions, political developments, governmental policies and social environment which will in turn affect the price of the Units.

Particular Stock Risk

Any large fluctuations in the value of a particular stock may cause the price of the Units to move as well.

Currency Risk The Fund may be exposed to currency fluctuation risk as well as changes in foreign exchange regulations as the Fund may be invested in foreign currency or assets denominated in a foreign currency. There is a risk of potential price fluctuations in the value of foreign assets because of changing current exchange rates. If this occurs there is a possibility that the Unit price of the Fund may be adversely affected.


56

Country Risk Investments may be affected by the political and economic conditions of the country in

which the investments are made. There is a risk of price fluctuations in foreign securities resulting from political, financial and economic events in foreign countries. If this occurs there is a possibility that the Unit price of the Fund may be adversely affected.

Risks related to KGF

Market Risk Any purchase of securities will involve an element of risk. The Fund that principally invests in listed stocks will be prone to the fluctuation in the performance of the stock markets, caused by changing market conditions as a result of global, regional or national economic conditions, political developments, governmental policies and social environment which will in turn affect the price of the Units. Market risk is mitigated through the Manager’s dynamic asset allocation strategy between equities and cash for the Fund. If the Manager is of the opinion that the market is particularly bearish at any point in time, the Fund may increase its exposure to cash in order to preserve capital.


Any large fluctuations in the value of a particular stock may cause the price of the Units to move as well. Particular stock risk is managed by ensuring the Fund is well diversified across various stocks.

Risks related to KIF

Market Risk Any purchase of Shariah-compliant securities will involve an element of risk. The Fund that principally invests in listed Shariah-compliant stocks will be prone to the fluctuation in the performance of the stock markets, caused by changing market conditions as a result of global, regional or national economic conditions, political developments, governmental policies and social environment which will in turn affect the price of the Units.


Any large fluctuations in the value of a particular Shariah-compliant stock may cause the price of the Units to move as well.

Reclassification of Shariah Status Risk

The risk that the currently held Shariah-compliant equities in the portfolio of Shariah-compliant Fund may be reclassified as Shariah non-compliant in the periodic review of the equities by the SACSC, the Fund’s Shariah adviser or the Shariah boards of the relevant Islamic indices. If this occurs, the Manager will take the necessary steps to dispose of such equities.

Currency Risk The Fund may be exposed to currency fluctuation risks as well as changes in foreign exchange regulations as the Fund may be invested in foreign currency or assets denominated in a foreign currency. There is a risk of potential price fluctuations in the value of foreign assets because of changing current exchange rates. If this occurs there is a possibility that the Unit price of the Fund may be adversely affected.

Country Risk Investments may be affected by the political and economic conditions of the country in which the investments are made. There is a risk of price fluctuations in foreign Shariah-compliant securities resulting from political, financial and economic events in foreign countries. If this occurs there is a possibility that the Unit price of the Fund may be adversely affected.

Any large fluctuations in the value of a particular stock may cause the price of the Units to move as well. Particular stock risk is managed by ensuring the Fund is well diversified across various stocks.


The risk that the currently held Shariah-compliant equities in the portfolio of Shariah-compliant Fund may be reclassified as Shariah non-compliant in the periodic review of the equities by the SACSC, the Fund’s Shariah adviser or the Shariah boards of the relevant indices. If this occurs, the Manager will take the necessary steps to dispose of such equities.

Equity Risk As the main investments of the Fund will be in equities and equity related securities, the Fund will be affected by equity risk. Generally, equity risk may arise in the following forms, i.e., equity risks related to external factors and equity risks related to company-specific factors. All of these related equity risks can adversely affect the prices of equities, which would negatively impact the performance of the Fund. Equity risks related to external factors include economic, political or general market factors which impact equities generally. For example, adverse political developments may cause the economy of the country in which the Fund invests in to become unstable, which in turn affects the profitability of a company that operates in that country due to weakening of the economy. Equity risks related to company-specific factors include how the companies in which the Fund invests are managed; the performance of any given company depends on the quality of its management. A company that has a competent management with the necessary experience and skill sets will contribute to the effectiveness of the operations of the company as indicated by such metrics as revenue growth and profitability. Company specific factors also include how the company is doing relative to its competitors or other companies in its industry or related industries. These types of equity risks can work individually or in combination to negatively affect the value of equities held by the Fund.

Warrant Risk The price, performance and liquidity of warrants are typically linked to the underlying stock. However, the price and performance of such warrants will generally fluctuate more than the underlying stock because of the greater volatility of the warrants market.

Currency Risk This risk is associated with investments denominated in currencies different from the base currency of the Fund. As the Fund is denominated in Malaysian Ringgit, investments in countries other than Malaysia will cause the Fund to be exposed to currency risks. When foreign currencies move unfavourably against Malaysian Ringgit, these investments may face currency loss in addition to any capital gains or losses, which will affect the NAV of the Fund, and consequently the price per Unit of the Fund. The Manager may mitigate this risk by hedging the foreign currency exposure.

Country Risk The Fund may be affected by risks specific to the countries in which it invests. Such risks may be caused by but not limited to changes in the country’s economic fundamentals, social and political stability, currency movements and foreign investment policies. These factors may have an impact on the prices of the Fund’s investment in that country and consequently may also affect the Fund’s NAV.

Market Risk Please refer to the market risk write-up set out in Chapter 5 (a) above.

Liquidity Risk Liquidity risk refers to the ease of liquidating an investment at or close to its fair value and is dependent on the investment’s volume traded in the market. Generally, investments in securities of smaller companies or in smaller markets may expose the Fund to greater liquidity risk due to smaller trading volumes as there may be smaller amounts of such securities being issued and traded in the said market. If the Fund holds many securities that are illiquid, or difficult to dispose of, the value of the Fund may be affected when it has to sell such securities at a discount or a loss, relative to the fair value of such securities. This in turn will depress the value of the Fund. This risk may be mitigated through a systematic security selection process, a systematic sell discipline and portfolio diversification.

Settlement Risk As the Fund may invest in different countries, the securities markets of certain countries may lack efficiency and regulatory controls. The investments of the Fund in certain countries may be adversely affected by delays in, or refusal to grant relevant approvals for the repatriation of funds which may affect the process of settlement of transactions.

Risks related to KBF



Any large fluctuations in the value of a particular stock may cause the price of the Units to move as well.

Credit Risk Credit risk or default risk refers to the possibility of deterioration of a fixed income instrument’s credit quality, which will negatively affect the market value of the instrument. The credit quality of a bond represents the ability of the issuer to make timely interest and/or principal repayments in relation to the bond. This is often reflected in the credit rating assigned by qualified credit rating agencies.

Interest Rate Risk The risk refers to the effect of interest rate changes on the market value of a bond portfolio. In the event of rising interest rates, prices of fixed income securities will decrease and vice versa. Meanwhile, debt securities with longer maturity and lower coupon rates are more sensitive to interest rate changes.


Country Risk Investments may be affected by the political and economic conditions of the country in which the investments are made. There is a risk of price fluctuations in foreign securities resulting from political, financial and economic events in foreign countries. If this occurs there is a possibility that the Unit price of the Fund may be adversely affected.

As for KIBF, the interest rate is a general indicator that will have an impact on the management of funds regardless of whether it is a Shariah-compliant fund or otherwise. It does not in any way suggest that this Fund will invest in conventional financial instruments. All the investments carried out for this Fund are in accordance with requirements of the Shariah.


The risk that the currently held Shariah-compliant equities in the portfolio of Shariah-compliant Fund may be reclassified as Shariah non-compliant in the periodic review of the equities by the SACSC, the Fund’s Shariah adviser or the Shariah boards of the relevant Islamic indices. If this occurs, the Manager will take the necessary steps to dispose of such equities.


Country Risk Investments may be affected by the political and economic conditions of the country in which the investments are made. There is a risk of price fluctuations in foreign Shariah-compliant securities resulting from political, financial and economic events in foreign countries. If this occurs there is a possibility that the Unit price of the Fund may be adversely affected.

Risks related to KCPF, KIECF, KIPF and KBIF

Market Risk The market price of securities owned by a Fund might go down or up, sometimes rapidly or unpredictably. Securities may decline in value due to factors affecting securities markets generally or particular industries represented in the securities markets. Equity securities generally have greater price volatility than fixed income securities/sukuk.

Interest Rate Risk This risk refers to the effect of interest rate changes on the market value of a bond/sukuk portfolio. In the event of rising interest rates, prices of fixed income securities/demand for sukuk will decrease and vice versa. Meanwhile, bonds/sukuk with longer maturity and lower coupon/profit rate are more sensitive to interest changes. The risk will be mitigated via the management of the duration structure of the fixed income/sukuk portfolio. As for Shariah-compliant Funds, interest rate will have an impact on the management of the Funds regardless of whether they are Shariah-compliant unit trust funds or otherwise. This does not in any way suggest that the Shariah-compliant Funds will invest in conventional financial instruments. All the investments carried out for the Shariah-compliant Funds are in accordance with Shariah requirements.

Credit/ Default Risk The Fund could lose money if the issuer or guarantor of a fixed income security/sukuk, or the counterparty to a derivatives contract, redemption agreement or a loan of portfolio securities, is unable or unwilling to make timely principal and/or interest/profit payments, or to otherwise honour its obligations. Securities are subject to varying degrees of credit/default risk, which are often reflected in credit ratings.

Reinvestment Risk Reinvestment risk arises when an issuer of bonds/sukuk decides to exercise its right to pay principal on an obligation earlier than the expected maturity date, especially during times of declining interest rates. Consequently, a Fund may experience lower returns due to having to reinvest in lower yielding securities.

Liquidity Risk Liquidity risks exist when particular investments are difficult to purchase or sell, possibly preventing a Fund from selling such illiquid securities at an advantageous time or price. Funds with principal investment strategies that involve foreign securities, derivatives or securities with substantial market and/or credit/default risk tend to have the greatest exposure to liquidity risks.

Counterparty Risk Counterparty risk occurs when a financial institution that has entered into a securities trade defaults on its obligations under the agreement. A Fund may encounter Unit price volatility due to this risk arising.

Risks related to KBCF, KGOF, KSGOF* and KEIF*


Stock-specific Risk The value of each individual stock that a Fund invests in may decline for a number of reasons which is directly related to the issuer, such as, the management performance, financial position and reduced demand for the issuer’s goods or services.


Derivatives/ Structured Products Risk

The Funds may from time to time use derivatives for hedging or as part of the investment strategy within the confines of the investment limits. Derivatives are financial contracts whose value depend on, or are derived from, the value of an underlying asset, reference rate or index. Such assets may include shares, interest rates, currency exchange rates and stock indices. Some of the risks associated with derivatives are market risk, management risk, credit risk, liquidity risk and counterparty risk.


62

Reclassification of Shariah Status Risk * Shariah-compliant Funds are also exposed to the reclassification of Shariah status risk

The risk that the currently held Shariah-compliant equities in the portfolio of Shariah-compliant Funds may be reclassified as Shariah non-compliant in the periodic review of the equities by the SACSC, the Funds’ Shariah adviser or the Shariah boards of the relevant Islamic indices. If this occurs, we will take the necessary steps to dispose of such equities.

Meanwhile, bonds/sukuk with longer maturity and lower coupon/profit rate are more sensitive to interest changes. The risk will be mitigated via the management of the duration structure of the fixed income/sukuk portfolio.

6. INFORMATION ON THE FUNDS Kenanga Premier Fund (KPF) Type of Fund : Growth Category of Fund : Equity Objective of KPF The investment objective of KPF is to provide consistent annual returns and medium to long-term capital appreciation. Any material changes to the investment objective of the Fund would require the Unit Holders’ approval. Investors’ Profile KPF is suitable for investors who are willing to accept moderate to high risk in order to achieve a reasonable return on their capital over the medium to long-term period ranging from three (3) to five (5) years. This enables the investors to withstand extended periods of market highs and lows in the pursuit of capital growth with KPF. Specific Benefit of KPF

Potentially Higher Returns

KPF is generally volatile in nature due to its high investment in equity and equity-related securities (maximum 98% of the NAV) and thus investors may enjoy potentially higher returns (if any) than other types of funds (e.g. balanced funds and/or fixed income funds) during an upward market trend.

Principal Investment Strategies KPF seeks to maximise total returns by providing investors with a combination of capital appreciation and income distribution, if any, while reducing risk through diversified investments mainly in equities which are broadly summarised as follows:

1. to invest in any combination of equity and equity-related securities;

2. to invest in securities which are readily marketable, although a proportion of the Fund may consist of investments in equities of smaller quoted companies; and

3. to invest in futures market for hedging purposes only. In selecting investments, emphasis is placed on pro spects for significant growth in the long-term and in particular, companies which have strong fundamental s and sound management. Accordingly, the indicative asset allocation of KPF will be as follows: 70% - 98% of the Fund’s NAV - Equities Minimum 2% of the Fund’s NAV - Liquid assets

Kenanga Asia Pacific Total Return Fund (KAPTRF) Type of Fund : Growth Category of Fund : Equity Objective of KAPTRF The Fund aims to provide capital appreciation over the long-term (over 5 years) by investing in equities and equity related securities of companies in the Asia Pacific region.

Any material change to the Fund’s investment objective would require the Unit-Holders’ approval. Investors’ Profile The Fund is suitable for investors who: • are seeking long-term capital growth on the amount invested; • are willing to accept equity risk to obtain potentially higher returns; and • want to have investments in the Asia Pacific region. Investment Policy and Process The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing in a diversified portfolio of equities and equity related securities of companies in the Asia Pacific region. The countries that the Fund may invest in will include, but are not limited to, Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia, Thailand, Philippines, India, Hong Kong and China (via the Hong Kong Stock Exchange), Japan, Korea, Taiwan, Australia and Vietnam. The balance of the Fund’s NAV that is not invested in equities and equity related securities will be held in deposits or invested in money market instruments. The Manager will seek to invest in companies which have a sustainable business model and are well managed. A particular company’s representation in the relevant market indices will not be considered by the Manager as the Manager is of the view that it does not necessarily provide a meaningful guidance on the prospects of the said company or its inherent worth. The Manager’s investment process seeks to exploit businesses with sustainable returns on equity (“ROE”)*, which are trading at a significant discount to their intrinsic value. We believe ROE to be a suitable gauge of the success of a business as it provides common shareholders with a sustainable measure of how effectively their investment capital is being employed over a given period of time. Further, we believe ROE is a measure of the four essential components of any business which are, strategy, processes (operational and financial), people and execution capability. *Note: ROE means the amount of net income returned as a percentage of shareholders equity. Return on equity measures a corporation's profitability by revealing how much profit a company generates with the money shareholders have invested. ROE is expressed as a percentage and calculated as: net income / shareholders’ equity = return on equity . The base currency of the Fund is in Malaysian Ringgit and as the Fund’s investments in the countries within the Asia Pacific region will be denominated in different currencies, the Manager intends to employ hedging to reduce the Fund’s exposure to foreign exchange fluctuations. The hedging will be done through derivatives instruments such as foreign exchange forwards. Investment Process Flowchart Schematic

*Note: “Discipline” in the context in which it is used in this Master Prospectus means the decision to purchase or sell a particular security. Idea Generation and Screening Investment idea sources include industry experts*, stockbroker research, press reports, published industry and corporate reports, trade journals, accumulated experience and personal observations. Stocks are screened with regard to market liquidity and certain predetermined financial ratios. Stock Selection Criteria The Manager believes that sound company fundamentals drive stock prices over time. Accordingly, a stock which has passed the “screening test” will then be subjected to detailed scrutiny which focuses on its business model and value proposition, the quality of its management and earnings, its balance sheet strength, and its cash generating ability.

Industry Verification Test The Manager is of the view that in-depth industry knowledge and business expertise are the key drivers for any company. Accordingly, if a stock passes the “stock selection criteria test”, it will then be subjected to verification by industry experts* who can usually add deep and valuable insights into the Manager’s assumptions with regard to the stocks’ potential. *Note: “industry experts” are people with the relevant industry knowledge or expertise, considered by the Manager to be able to provide critical insights into the industry within which the Manager may seek to invest. For example, people who have known specific skill and experience within an industry and long-term members of trade organizations (relevant to the company which stocks the Manager intends to invest in). Valuation Whilst the Manager seeks to identify and invest in stocks of companies which are expected to generate a reasonable return on equity, and have passed the two tests noted above, the Manager will not invest in stocks of those companies which compromise the Manager’s view on their “true” (or intrinsic) value. The Manager will use its internal valuation techniques (such as “discounted cash flow” and “relative valuation”) to determine the “true” value of the stock. The Manager when using its “buy / sell” discipline, will seek to invest in a stock if it believes that the stock is undervalued. If a particular stock held by the Fund becomes overvalued, the Manager will sell the stock. Portfolio Construction and Management The Manager will construct the Fund’s portfolio based on the prevailing (and changing) levels of risk accumulation and concentration as the Manager seeks to capture targeted returns. The Fund’s portfolio will be built (one stock at a time) and managed with due regard to both “upside” and “downside” risk potential. This approach aims to create a diversification strategy which maximises the Manager’s view on the portfolio’s risk / return potential. Risk Management Portfolio risk management is central to the Manager’s investment process. Portfolio risk management can therefore include the application of policies, procedures and practices which continually seeks to identify, analyse, assess, control and mitigate unacceptable risk as it accumulates and/or concentrates within a portfolio. Accordingly, the portfolio of the Fund is subjected to numerous risk management techniques including stock exposure limits (company, sector, country etc), pre-determined stock liquidity levels and risk budgets, and clear “buy / sell” and “stop loss” disciplines. Temporary Defensive Positions The Manager may take a temporary defensive position during adverse market conditions. In times of extreme market volatility and/ or when market valuation is at a level considered unsustainable, the Fund will judiciously scale back its equity exposure below its normal operating range of 70% to 99% of the Fund’s NAV. During such times, the Manager will invest in investments which the Manager considers may better preserve the value of the Fund (for example, money market instruments) although not necessarily meeting entirely the growth objective of the Fund. For the avoidance of doubt, please note that this is not a capital guaranteed or capital protected fund.


74

Asset Allocation Asset allocation is dependent on the interaction between the Manager’s investment process and the opportunities presented by markets at any point in time. As an indication, the Manager envisages the normal operating range to be: Equities and equity related securities allocation: • Minimum: 70% of the Fund’s NAV • Maximum: 99% of the Fund’s NAV Deposits and money market instruments allocation: • Minimum: 1% of the Fund’s NAV • Maximum: 30% of the Fund’s NAV Performance Benchmark The performance benchmark is 10% growth in NAV per annum (compounded*) over the long-term. Please note that this is not a guaranteed return, but a benchmark against which the performance of the Fund may be measured. The Fund may or may not achieve the compounded return* of 10% of the NAV per annum but targets to achieve this growth over the long-term. *The following is a brief explanation on “compounded return”: Compounded return is the rate of return, usually expressed as a percentage that represents the cumulative effect that a series of gains or losses have on an original amount of capital over a period of time. Compound returns are usually expressed in annual terms, meaning that the percentage number that is reported represents the annualized rate at which capital has compounded over time. For example, if an investment fund claims to have produced a 10% annual compound return over the past five years, this means that at the end of its fifth year, the fund's capital has grown to a size equal to what it would be if the funds on hand at the beginning of each year had earned exactly 10% by the end of each year. In other words, suppose you started with an initial investment of RM1,000. If you multiply RM1,000 by 1.1 five times, you will end up with about RM1,611. If an investment of RM1,000 ended up being worth RM1,611 by the end of five years, the investment could be said to have generated a 10% annual compound return over that five-year period. However, this does not mean that the investment actually appreciated by 10% during each of the five years. Any pattern of growth that led to a final value of RM1,611 after five years would equate to a 10% annualized return. Suppose the investment earned nothing for the first four years, and then earned RM611 in its last year (a 61.1% return for the year). This would still equate to a 10% annual compound return over the five-year measurement period, since the final amount is still equal to what the RM1,000 would have grown to if it had appreciated by a steady 10% each year.

investments in equities and bonds of smaller quoted companies; and 3. to invest in futures market for hedging purposes only. In selecting investments, emphasis is placed on pro spects for significant growth in the long-term and in particular, companies which have strong fundamental s and sound management. Accordingly, the indicative asset allocation of KBF will be as follows: Maximum 60% of the NAV - Equities Maximum 40% of the NAV - Fixed income instruments Minimum 2% of the NAV - Liquid assets

Any material changes to the investment objective of the Fund would require the Unit Holders’ approval. Investors’ Profile KMIF is suitable for investors who are seeking medium to long-term capital appreciation ranging from three (3) to five (5) years as well as a diversified investment consisting of Malaysian equities with global exposure. Specific Benefits of KMIF


KMIF is generally volatile in nature due to its high investment in securities (maximum 98% of NAV) and thus investors may enjoy potentially higher returns than other types of funds (i.e. balanced funds and/or fixed income funds) during an upward market trend.

Principal Investment Strategies KMIF seeks to maximise total returns by providing investors with capital appreciation and income (if any), while reducing risk through diversified investments mainly in equities and short-term money market instruments which are broadly summarised as follows: 1. to invest in any combination of equity and equity-related securities; 2. to invest in securities which are readily marketable, although a proportion of the Fund may consist of

investments in equities of smaller quoted companies; and 3. to invest in Malaysian companies that are expanding beyond Malaysia’s shore – they have scalable

business models in Malaysia that potentially can tap regional and global market bases. Some of these companies are already having presence in the Asian region or planning to go beyond Asian markets with global vision.

Accordingly, the indicative asset allocation of KMIF will be as follows: Up to 98% of the NAV - Malaysian equities Minimum 2% of the NAV - Liquid assets

Kenanga Cash Plus Fund (KCPF) Type of Fund : Income Category of Fund : Fixed Income Objective of KCPF The Fund aims to provide investors a regular stream of income* through investments in short to medium-term^ fixed income instruments with high level of liquidity¹. Any material changes to the investment objective of the Fund would require the Unit Holders’ approval. Investors’ Profile KCPF is suitable for investors who desire a steady stream of income*, have short to medium-term^ investment horizon, have low tolerance of investment risks, want a highly liquid investment portfolio and want a low risk fund as part of the asset allocation strategy. Specific Benefits of KCPF KCPF gives you safety of capital as the instruments that the Fund invests in are by and large some of the most stable and safe investments. By purchasing debt securities issued by investment-grade banks, large corporations and the government, the Fund carries relatively low default risk while offering relatively higher returns in comparison to similar low-risk/liquid products. KCPF provides you with low-cost access to short-term fixed income instruments and medium-term bonds which generally would require huge capital outlay and would be inaccessible to the majority of investors. The Fund seeks to provide investors with a regular income* stream with security of capital which gives you the liquidity to access your funds to meet your cash flow needs. Note: * Income will be reinvested into additional Units into the Fund unless Unit Holders request for cheques to be sent

to them. ^ Short to medium-term refers to a period of 3 – 5 years. ¹ High level of liquidity refers to fixed income instruments that are very liquid and can be sold off easily. Principal Investment Strategies To achieve the objective of the Fund, it will invest in high quality short to medium-term^ fixed income instruments with minimum credit ratings of A3 or P2 (by RAM) or equivalent rating by other recognized rating agencies. We adopt an active investment management process to manage credit risks, the prevailing interest rate environment and anticipated redemptions by Unit Holders. Investment in this Fund is not the same as placing funds in a deposit with a financial institution. There are risks involved and investors should rely on their own evaluation to assess the merits and risks when investing in the Fund. The investment in the Fund is not capital guaranteed. However, the risks of capital loss are considered low as the Fund would invest in low risk assets as stated under investment strategy above. In addition, the short weighted average maturity of less than 365 days would also minimize the risks from interest rate movements, hence further reducing the risks of capital loss. Furthermore we also manage the portfolio risks amongst others, by:- • Adhering to the Fund’s investment objective and investment restrictions and limits; • Carrying out robust credit analysis for investment decision making; • Daily monitoring of market liquidity; • Effective asset allocation; • Constant reporting of investment matters to the investment committee and senior management. Risk Management Strategies The Fund employs strategies such as overall portfolio duration and yield curve positioning to deal with market and reinvestment risks. Bond strategies employed can translate into a laddered, barbell or bullet portfolios. For


84

investments in credits, a bottom-up approach in selecting corporate issuers in the portfolio and the selection of best-priced securities within a given credit rating can improve the performance of a credit portfolio. Should the rating of the corporate issuers fall below the minimum rating of “investment grade” i.e. rated at least BBB- by RAM or equivalent rating by MARC or other rating agencies, we will try to dispose of the securities to the market, subject to pricing and liquidity of the securities. We will follow-up closely the development of the credit issue. The Fund’s internal controls include asset allocation strategies to limit exposures in a single asset class. The Fund also imposes single-issuer limits to restrict over-investments in a single or group of companies i.e. issuer risks. Portfolio turnover and dealing limits control churning and over-trading with securities trade-counter parties. Functionally, investment management is separated from the trade processing and compliance units so that investments limits can be independently monitored and reported. We may, in compliance with the applicable investment limits and restrictions imposed, temporarily adopt a more defensive attitude by holding more cash in the portfolio when we believe that the market or the economy are experiencing excessive volatility, a persistent general decline or other negative conditions. Accordingly, the indicative asset allocation of KCPF will be as follows: 0% - 50% of the Fund’s NAV - Bonds 50% - 100% of the Fund’s NAV - Cash/ money market instruments Performance benchmark Maybank 1-month fixed deposit rate obtainable from www.maybank2u.com.

Kenanga OneAnswerTM allows you to select, in any proportion, any number of those investments to implement your investment strategy. Managing risk and return Before investing, you need to determine what level of risk is appropriate for you. Your savings are important and should be managed carefully to meet your financial goals. There is generally a relationship between the risk associated with different investments and their potential returns. Investments earning higher returns usually carry higher risk and their value may rise or fall significantly and returns may be more volatile. More stable investments, such as cash and bonds/sukuk, generally earn relatively lower returns, but their value and returns are less likely to fluctuate significantly. Each type of investment generally has a different set of risk and return features. The risk/ return relationship is a trade-off as illustrated in Figure 1. The price of higher returns is the likelihood that your returns will fluctuate over time and the greater possibility that you could lose money. The cost of lower risk might be that your returns do not provide the money you need to meet your long-term financial goals. An important part of the relationship with your adviser is working out your own risk/return profile, to determine how much risk is appropriate for you in the context of your investment objectives and circumstances. Establishing your profile is an important step in selecting the investments that suit your needs. Accordingly, we have developed and suggested model portfolios that may provide you with a total portfolio solution that is suitable to your particular profile and circumstances.

Kenanga Blue Chip Fund (KBCF) Type of Fund : Growth & Income Category of Fund : Equity Objective of KBCF The Fund aims to achieve long-term* capital growth through investments in companies that have relatively larger market capitalization^. Any material changes to the investment objective of the Fund would require the Unit Holders’ approval. Investors’ Profile KBCF is suitable for investors who are seeking high capital growth, have moderate to high-risk tolerance and can withstand significant short-term¹ volatilities and have long-term* investment horizon. Principal Investment Strategies The Fund will construct a diversified investment portfolio that consists of fundamentally sound companies that have large market capitalization^ and are dividends paying. The Fund may invest up to 98% of its NAV in such companies. These companies are generally referred to as ‘blue chip’ companies. The strategy begins with a thorough macroeconomic analysis and determining the investable universe of stocks for the Fund. The research is based on internal fundamental research, company contacts and visits, external research, databases and quantitative support. Finally, portfolio is constructed using bottom-up analysis based on the level of conviction formed for individual stocks. The companies are initially evaluated based on a combination of growth and value parameters. The more favorable stocks are subject to thorough fundamental analysis including their dividend payout, yields and sustainability. The best companies are then chosen from each sector. The final portfolio is determined taking into consideration the relative attractiveness of each sector. We employ ‘Price-for-Growth’ as a global standard to equity investments. ‘Price for Growth’ is based on the belief that earnings growth drives stock returns. The strategy focuses on the analysis of the earnings and cash flow potential of individual companies using a bottom-up fundamental approach. The objective is to find underpriced earnings growth in the market by making an assessment of what a reasonable price is for the earnings growth that companies offer. The Fund believes that there is a trade-off between the desire for good earnings growth and the amount paid for that growth. In addition to the ‘Price-for-Growth’ strategy, the Fund also evaluates the dividend policy, payment and dividend yield relative to its price. Overall the investments are in companies that offer good medium-term earnings growth, sustainable dividend yield and are inexpensively priced. We adopt an active investment management process that is not a ‘frequent-trading’ strategy. At the same time, the active investment management strategy including diversification and in depth fundamental research, also helps in mitigating risks associated with equity investing including market, stock-specific and liquidity risks. Note: * Long-term refers to a period of 7 years and above. 1 Short-term refers to a period of less than 3 years. ^ Relatively larger market capitalization refers to companies with market capitalization of more than RM 4 billion

at the point of purchase. Risk Management Strategies We adopt an active investment management process that is not a ‘frequent-trading’ strategy. An active investment process is a dynamic mix of market and corporate earnings and market and stock valuation. Any one or a combination of the factors may rapidly change: stocks may be bought or sold as and when the factors warrant it. At the same time, the active investment management strategy also helps in mitigating risks associated with equity investing including market, stock-specific and liquidity risks. Risks associated with investing in this Fund i.e. market, stock-specific and liquidity risks are controlled to some extent by making adjustments to its asset allocation and/or sector and stock weightings, based on the investment


92

outlook prevailing at that time. The Fund also imposes single-issuer limits to restrict over-investment in a single or group of companies i.e. stock-specific risk and to ensure diversification. We may, in compliance with the applicable investment limits and restrictions imposed, temporarily adopt a more defensive attitude by holding more cash in the portfolio when we believe that the market or the economy is experiencing excessive volatility, a persistent general decline or other negative conditions. Accordingly, the indicative asset allocation of KBCF will be as follows: 50% - 98% of the Fund’s NAV - Equities 2% - 50% of the Fund’s NAV - Fixed income securities/ cash Performance benchmark FTSE Bursa Malaysia 100 Index obtainable from www.bursamalaysia.com.

Sukuk strategies employed can translate into a laddered, barbell or bullet portfolios. For


108

investments in credits, a bottom-up approach in selecting corporate issuers in the portfolio and the selection of best-priced Shariah-compliant securities within a given credit rating can improve the performance of a credit portfolio. Should the rating of the corporate issuers fall below the minimum rating of “investment grade” i.e. rated at least BBB3 by RAM or equivalent rating by MARC or other rating agencies, we will try to dispose of the Shariah-compliant securities to the market, subject to pricing and liquidity of the Shariah-compliant securities. We will follow-up closely the development of the credit issue. The Fund’s internal controls include asset allocation strategies to limit exposures in a single asset class. The Fund also imposes single-issuer limits to restrict over-investments in a single or group of companies i.e. issuer risks. Portfolio turnover and dealing limits control churning and over-trading with Shariah-compliant securities trade-counter parties. Functionally, investment management is separated from the trade processing and compliance units so that investments limits can be independently monitored and reported. We may, in compliance with the applicable investment limits and restrictions imposed, temporarily adopt a more defensive attitude by holding more cash in the portfolio when we believe that the market or the economy are experiencing excessive volatility, a persistent general decline or other negative conditions. Accordingly, the indicative asset allocation of KBIF will be as follows: 50% - 98% of the Fund’s NAV - Sukuk 2% - 50% of the Fund’s NAV - Cash Performance benchmark RAM Quantshop Malaysian Government Investment Issue obtainable from www.quantshop.com.

Investment Instruments

Valuation Basis

Securities or Shariah-compliant Securities Listed on Any Exchange

Market price However, if: � a valuation based on the market price does not represent the fair value of

the securities or Shariah-compliant securities, e.g. during abnormal market conditions; or

� no market price is available, including in the event of a suspension in the quotation of the securities or Shariah-compliant securities for a period exceeding fourteen (14) days, or such shorter period as agreed by the Trustee,

then the securities or Shariah-compliant securities should be valued at fair value, as determined in good faith by the Manager based on the methods or bases approved by the Trustee after appropriate consultation.

Securities or Shariah-compliant Securities Not Traded In or Under the Rules of an Eligible Market

Fair value should be determined on methods or bases which have been verified by the auditors of the Fund and approved by the Trustee.

Fixed Income Securities or Debentures or Sukuk

Unquoted debt securities or sukuk denominated in Ringgit Malaysia will be valued on a daily basis based on fair value prices quoted by a bond pricing agency (BPA) registered with the SC. If the Manager is of the view that the price quoted by the BPA for a specific bond or sukuk differs from the market price by more than 20 basis points, the Manager may use the market price provided that the Manager adheres to the requirements as stipulated in the Guidelines.

Malaysian Currency Liquid Assets or Islamic Liquid Assets

Nominal value.

Foreign Currency Liquid Assets or Islamic Liquid Assets

Same basis as Malaysian currency liquid assets or Islamic liquid assets of similar type, with such adaptations as are necessary.


123

Investment Instruments

Valuation Basis

Financial Futures or Islamic Financial Futures

Investments in financial futures or Islamic financial futures are valued at marked to market at the end of each trading day.

Money Market Instruments or Islamic Money Market Instruments

Investments in conventional or Shariah-compliant financial instruments such as banker acceptance, Islamic accepted bills, Bank Negara monetary notes or Bank Negara monetary notes-i, negotiable certificate of deposits or Islamic negotiable instruments or other short-term financial instruments issued by government or government-related agencies are valued each day by reference to the value of such investments and the profits accrued thereon for the relevant period.

Collective Investment Scheme or Shariah-compliant Collective Investment Scheme

Investments in collective investment schemes or Shariah-compliant collective investment schemes will be valued, based on the last published net asset value per unit or share of such collective investment scheme or Shariah-compliant collective investment schemes. In the case of unlisted collective investment schemes or Shariah-compliant collective investment schemes, the valuation will be based on the last published repurchase price.

Financial Options or Islamic Financial Options

Investments in financial options or Islamic financial options are valued at marked to market at the end of each trading day.

Any Other Instruments or Shariah-compliant Instruments

Fair value as determined in good faith by the Manager, on methods or bases which have been verified by the auditors of the Fund and approved by the Trustee.

Derivatives or Structured Products

Valuation of derivatives or structured products is classified as financial assets and is measured at Fair Value through Profit and Loss, “FVTPL”. The financial instruments are marked to market using valuation prices quoted by the derivatives or structured products provider. The fair values of the financial assets are valued at least once a week. Any unrealized gains or losses comprise changes in fair value of the financial instruments are reported immediately on the statement of comprehensive income.

Valuation for the Fund The Fund must be valued at least once every Business Day. The Guidelines also requires a valuation of the Fund to be carried out in a fair and accurate manner. The Fund adopts a forward pricing basis which means that prices of Units will be calculated based on the NAV of the Fund at a valuation point in the future, i.e. the next valuation point. The valuation point for the Fund is at 5 p.m. every Business Day. If the Fund has investments in foreign markets, the valuation of the Fund will be done only on T+1 day due to the different time zones of foreign markets. Accordingly, if applications for Units or requests for repurchase are received before the cut-off time of 4.00 p.m. on a Business Day, say, 2 July 2012, the Manager will process the applications using the price of the Units for that Business Day, 2 July 2012. The price of the Units for 2 July 2012 will be calculated on the following Business Day, 3 July 2012 based on the market closing on 2 July 2012. Accordingly, applications for Units or requests for redemption received after the cut-off time of 4.00 p.m. on the Business Day will only be processed on the next Business Day. If you want to know the latest prices of the Units, please contact us directly (for contact details, please refer to the Directory of the Manager’s Offices and List of IUTA at page 8 or refer to our website www.KenangaInvestors.com.my). Note : Valuation point is the particular point in time on a Business Day, as the Manager may decide, at which the NAV of the Fund is calculated.


124

Kenanga Asia Pacific Total Return Fund (KAPTRF) The valuation point of the Fund is at the close of business of the last relevant foreign market in which the Fund invests on that Business Day. As the Fund invests in foreign markets, the valuation of the Units in respect of a particular Business Day can only be carried out on the following Business Day at the close of business of the last relevant foreign market in which the Fund invests in.

7. SHARIAH INVESTMENT GUIDELINES ADOPTED BY IBFIM, CLEANSING PROCESS AND ZAKAT (TITHE) FOR THE SHARIAH-COMPLIANT FUNDS (KIF, KSGF, KIBF, KIECF, KIMMF, KSGOF, KEIF, KSBF and KBIF)

1. Shariah Investment Guidelines The following matters are adopted by IBFIM in determining the Shariah status of investments of the Funds. INVESTMENT IN MALAYSIA Equity: Reference for investment in local securities is based on the list of Shariah-compliant securities issued by the SACSC twice yearly on the last Friday of May and November which is readily available at the Securities Commission’s website. However, for Initial Public Offering (“IPO”) companies that have yet to be determined the Shariah status by the SACSC, IBFIM adopts the following analysis as a temporary measure in determining its Shariah status until the SACSC releases the Shariah status of the respective companies. • Core Business Activities Analysis

Companies whose activities are not contrary to the Shariah will be classified as Shariah-compliant securities. On the other hand, companies will be classified as Shariah non-compliant if they are involved in the following core business activities: a) Conventional financial services; b) Gambling and gaming; c) Manufacture or sale of non-halal products or related products (e.g. pork and liquor); d) Manufacture or sale of tobacco-based products or related products; e) Pornography; f) Weaponry; g) Entertainment activities that are not permitted by the Shariah; and h) Other activities considered non-permissible according to the Shariah.

• Mixed Business Activities Analysis

For companies with activities comprising both permissible and non-permissible elements, IBFIM applies two analyses before they can be classified as Shariah-compliant. The analyses are as follows: i) Qualitative Analysis

In this analysis, IBFIM will look into aspects of general public perception of the companies’ images, core businesses which are considered important and maslahah (beneficial) to the Muslim ummah and the country, the non-permissible elements are very small and involve matters like umum balwa (common plight and difficult to avoid), ‘uruf (custom) and rights of the non-Muslim community which are accepted by the Shariah.

ii) Quantitative Analysis

Companies which passed the above qualitative analysis will be further subjected to quantitative analysis. IBFIM deduces the following to ensure that they are lower than the Shariah tolerable benchmarks:

a) Business Activity Benchmarks

The 5% benchmark would be applicable to the following business activities: • Conventional banking; • Conventional insurance; • Gambling; • Liquor and liquor-related activities; • Pork and pork-related activities; • Non-halal food and beverages; • Shariah non-compliant entertainment; • Interest income from conventional accounts and instruments; • Tobacco and tobacco-related activities; and


126

• Other activities considered non-compliant according to Shariah. The 20% benchmark would be applicable to the following activities: • Hotel and resort operations; • Share trading; • Stockbroking business; • Rental received from Shariah non-compliant activities; and • Other activities considered non-compliant according to Shariah.

The contribution of Shariah non-compliant activities to the overall revenue/sales/turnover/income and profit before tax of the companies will be calculated and compared against the relevant business activity benchmarks.

b) Financial Ratio Benchmarks

The financial ratios applied are as follows: • Cash over Total Assets Cash will only include cash placed in conventional accounts and instruments, whereas cash

placed in Islamic accounts and instruments will be excluded from the calculation. • Debt over Total Assets Debt will only include interest-bearing debt whereas Islamic debt/financing or sukuk will be

excluded from the calculation. Both ratios, which are intended to measure riba and riba-based elements within a companies’ balance sheet, must be lower than 33%.

Should any of the above deductions fail to meet the benchmarks, IBFIM will not accord Shariah-compliant status for the companies.

Sukuk and Islamic Money Market Instruments: IBFIM will review any sukuk and/or Islamic money market instruments based on the data available at Bond Info Hub (www.bondinfo.bnm.gov.my) and Fully Automated System For Issuing/Tendering (https://fast.bnm.gov.my). INVESTMENT IN FOREIGN MARKETS Equity: • Core Business Activities Analysis

Companies whose activities are not contrary to the Shariah will be classified as Shariah-compliant securities. On the other hand, companies will be classified as Shariah non-compliant if they are involved in the following core business activities: a) Conventional financial services; b) Gambling and gaming; c) Manufacture or sale of non-halal products or related products (e.g. pork and liquor); d) Manufacture or sale of tobacco-based products or related products; e) Pornography; f) Weaponry; g) Entertainment activities that are not permitted by the Shariah; and h) Other activities considered non-permissible according to the Shariah.

• Mixed Business Activities Analysis

For companies with activities comprising both permissible and non-permissible elements, IBFIM applies two analyses before they can be classified as Shariah-compliant. The analyses are as follows:


127

i) Qualitative Analysis

In this analysis, IBFIM will look into aspects of general public perception of the companies’ images, core businesses which are considered important and maslahah (beneficial) to the Muslim ummah and the country, the non-permissible elements are very small and involve matters like umum balwa (common plight and difficult to avoid), ‘uruf (custom) and rights of the non-Muslim community which are accepted by the Shariah.

ii) Quantitative Analysis

Companies which passed the above qualitative analysis will be further subjected to quantitative analysis. IBFIM deduces the following to ensure that they are lower than the Shariah tolerable benchmarks:

• Contribution of interest income to the total income is lower than 5% of the total income; • Total debt of the companies (including all interest-bearing loans/debentures and their respective

payables such as short term/long term debts, short term/long term debentures and all debentures payables) is lower than 30% of the total assets of the companies;

• Total sum of companies’ cash and receivables is lower than 70% of its total assets; and • Income generated from other prohibited components from Shariah perspective is lower than 5% of

the companies’ total income.

Should any of the above deductions fail to meet the benchmarks, IBFIM will not accord Shariah-compliant status for the companies.

Foreign Sukuk: IBFIM will review the information memoranda or prospectuses of the sukuk, its structure, utilisation of proceeds, Shariah contracts, Shariah pronouncements, etc. 2. Cleansing Process for the Funds

a) Wrong Investment

This refers to Shariah non-compliant investment made by the fund manager. The said investment will be disposed of/withdrawn with immediate effect. In the event of the investment resulted in gain (through capital gain and/or dividend/profit), the gain is to be channelled to baitulmal or any other charitable bodies as advised by the Shariah adviser. If the disposal of the investment resulted in losses to the Fund, the losses are to be borne by the fund manager.

b) Reclassification of Shariah Status of the Funds’ Investment

Reclassification of Shariah status refers to equity which is reclassified as Shariah non-compliant by the SACSC, the Shariah adviser or the Shariah boards of the relevant Islamic indices. The said equity will be disposed soonest practical, once the total amount of dividends received and the market value held equals the original investment costs.

Any capital gains arising from the disposal of the Shariah non-compliant equity made at the time of the announcement can be kept by the Fund. However, any excess capital gains derived from the disposal after the announcement day at a market price that is higher than the closing price on the announcement day is to be channelled to baitulmal or any charitable bodies as advised by the Shariah adviser.

3. Zakat (tithe) for the Funds

The Funds do not pay zakat on behalf of Muslim individuals and Islamic legal entities who are investors of the Funds. Thus, investors are advised to pay zakat on their own.

Distribution Reinvestment Option for KPF, KGF, KIF, KSGF, KAPTRF, KBF, KIBF, KBNF, KCPF, KIECF , KMIF, KIMMF, KMMF, KBCF, KGOF, KSGOF, KEIF, KMGF, K DF, KSBF, KIPF and KBIF In the absence of instructions from a Unit Holder, distributions from the Fund are automatically reinvested into additional Units of that Fund based on the NAV per Unit with NO sales charge on the next Business Day after the distribution declaration date. If there is any change to the distribution instructions, Unit Holders need to notify the Manager within fourteen (14) days prior to the distribution payment date. For EPF investors, it is mandatory that all distribution of income shall be reinvested automatically. For Unit Holders opt for distribution proceeds to be paid out to them, any distribution proceeds amounting to RM250 and below shall be automatically reinvested as additional Units of that Fund based on the NAV per Unit with NO sales charge on the next Business Day after the distribution declaration date. In the event that cheques for distribution are not presented within six (6) months from the date of payment, the unclaimed distributions will be automatically reinvested into additional Units, based on the prevailing NAV per Unit fifteen (15) Business Days from the end of the said six (6) months period.


129

Illustration Total returns comprise both the capital (reflected in the price) and income (reflected in the distributions) portions of each Fund. Capital gains represent the appreciation in the Unit price as compared to the original purchase price per Unit for a particular period. Distributions represent income distributed by each Fund to Unit Holders for current and past profits made. When each Fund is making a distribution, the Unit price will automatically adjust itself on the ex-date, whereby the Unit price will be reduced by an equal ratio (assumption: no distribution related expenses involved) to that of the distribution ratio. This is due to outflow of money from each Fund back to the Unit Holders. Therefore, there is no point in buying unit trusts in anticipation of distributions. Distribution of income is usually expressed in sen per Unit and is approved by the Trustees of the Funds. Example: If a fund declares a distribution of 6 sen per Unit to all its Unit Holders as at 31 December 20XX, the Unit price before and after distribution will also be reduced by 6 sen per Unit as follows: Price Before and After Income Distribution

Before Distribution RM

After Distribution RM

Source : Lipper IM, dated 30 April 2014 The Fund underperformed its benchmark for the period under review mainly due to cash drag given investors’ short-term investment horizon indication and the provision for liquidity for the ad-hoc T+1 redemption requirement. While selective short-term corporate bonds had not performed very well towards end of the period under review, investment in short-term corporate bonds as well as commercial papers generally continued to provide enhancement to the fund return over long term.

Portfolio Turnover Ratio (PTR) and Management Expen se Ratio (MER) for the Funds for the 3 most recent financial years Portfolio Turnover Ratio The PTR refers to the measure of trading activity or how frequently assets within a fund are bought and sold by the managers. A fund with a fifty percent (50%) portfolio turnover ratio, for example, replaces half of its holdings during the period under review. A fund with a high portfolio turnover rate will typically incur more transaction costs than one with a low portfolio turnover rate. The computation of PTR is as follows: PTR = (Total acquisitions of the Fund + Total disposals of the Fund) divided by 2 ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Average value of the Fund calculated on a daily basis Management Expense Ratio The MER is a ratio of the sum of the fees and the recoverable expenses of the Fund to the average value of the Fund calculated on a daily basis. It represents the inherent costs of operating a unit trust fund, which comprises management fee, trustee’s fee and expenses incurred in administrating the Fund. It provides a measure by which an investor can assess and compare the expenses incurred by the Fund to other funds. The ratio obtained is to be compared to that of other funds of the same category when selecting a fund for investment. In comparison of a fund’s expenses the lower the ratio the better. MER is usually expressed as an annual percentage of a fund’s average net assets and referred to as an “expense ratio”. The computation of MER is as follows: MER = Management fee + Trustee fee + Fund’s administrative fees -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- X 100 Average value of the Fund calculated on a daily basis Kenanga Premier Fund

Illustration Assuming: Fund Kenanga Premier Fund Day 31 March 20XX NAV (before deducting management fee and trustee fee) RM276,094,332.47 NAV of the Fund (after deducting management fee and trustee fee) RM276,082,456.63 Units in Circulation (Units) 552,164,913.26 NAV per Unit RM0.50000000

The NAV per Unit of the Fund is the Selling Price per Unit. Assuming the Manager is charging a sales charge of 5.50% of the Selling Price per Unit for all transactions: NAV per Unit RM0.5000 Sales charge 5.50% of the Selling Price per Unit If you make a payment of RM10,000, the amount to be invested in a Fund and the sales charge to be paid by you are calculated as follows: Amount to be invested in a Fund: RM10,000/(1 + 0.055) = RM9,478.67 Units issued to you: RM9,478.67/RM0.5000 = 18,957.34 Units Sales charge to be paid by you: RM10,000 – RM9,478.67 = RM521.33 Note: the Manager reserves the right to accept or r eject any application in whole or part thereof with out assigning any reason.

The buying (or repurchase) price of a Unit is calculated by dividing the NAV of the Fund at the end of the Business Day (forward price) on which the written request to repurchase the Units is received by the Manager by the total number of Units in issue on that day. There is NO repurchase charge levied on the repurchase request.

If a registered holder redeems RM10,000.00, and the Repurchase Price per Unit (which is the NAV per Unit) is RM0.5000, he would redeem 20,000 Units. Please refer to the illustration below as to how the above is calculated. NAV per Unit RM0.5000 Repurchase charge 0% of the NAV per Unit If you decide to redeem an amount of RM10,000, the Units to be redeemed shall be calculated as follows: Amount to be redeemed from the Fund: RM10,000/(1 + 0) = RM10,000 Units redeemed by you: RM10,000/RM0.5000 = 20,000 Units Repurchase Charge to be paid by you: None as there is no repurchase charge.

An investor may begin investment in the Fund with a minimum purchase of One Thousand Ringgit Malaysia (RM1,000) *. The Manager may, at its sole discretion, limit the number of Units that any one investor can invest in; the limits of investment imposed by the Manager may differ from investor to investor arising from unavailability of Units. Additional investments can be made with a minimum of One Hundred Ringgit Malaysia (RM100) *. This is again subject to a limit which may be placed at the sole discretion of the Manager. * Please note that the RM1,000 and RM100 are inclusive of the amount invested into the Fund and the sales charge that is imposed on an investor. The Manager reserves the right to allow for such other lower amount of minimum initial and additional investment. * Investors who invest through the EPF Members’ Investment Scheme is required to invest a minimum of One Thousand Ringgit Malaysia (RM1,000) .

Redeeming Your Investment The Funds do not have any restriction on the frequency of redemption. You may request the Manager to repurchase all or a minimum of 500 Units per transaction (a minimum of 500 Units to remain in account at any time) at any time by simply completing the repurchase form and returning it to the Manager through our appointed agents or direct to our business office. The cut-off time for making a redemption request in respect of Units of the Funds is 4.00 p.m. on any Business Day, save for, KIMMF and KMMF which is at 11 a.m. on any Business Day. Redemption requests received by us before the aforesaid cut-off times will be transacted at the Repurchase Price per Unit calculated at the next valuation point on which the request was received (i.e. “forward pricing”). The cut-off time will be determined based on the time and date stamp made by the Manager. Where the redemption request is received after the cut-off times as set out above, the request will be deemed to have been received on the next Business Day. Payments of redemption proceeds will be made within ten (10) days from the date at which a redemption request is deemed received (except for KIMMF, KMMF, KCPF and KIECF where payment will be made on the next Business Day if the repurchase request is received by the Manager before the aforesaid cut-off times on any Business Day). However, if the redemption request leaves a Unit Holder with less than 500 Units (Minimum Holdings), the Manager will automatically liquidate the balance of the Units held in the Unit Holder’s account. * The Manager reserves the right to allow for such other lower amount of minimum redemption amount. Switching Option Switching is a facility that we offer to our Unit Holders. This facility is a convenient way of converting Units of 1 Fund to another fund that we manage, in response to changing market conditions or changes in your investment goals. Unit Holders may switch into or out of any of the funds which are managed by the Manager. The minimum number of Units for each switching transaction is 500 Units or such other lower amount as the Manager in its sole discretion allows. Application for switching of Units of the Funds should be made before the cut-off time of 4.00 p.m. on any Business Day, except for KIMMF and KMMF which is at 11 a.m. on any Business Day. Where the application for switching of Units of the Funds are received after the aforesaid cut-off times, the application for switching of Units will be deemed to have been received on the next Business Day. In executing his/her transaction, the Unit Holder must ensure that he/she maintain a minimum of 500 Units in his/her account with the respective Funds if he/she intends to stay invested with the Funds. In the event a switching request leaves a Unit Holder with less than 500 Units (Minimum Holdings), the Manager will automatically switch the balance of the Units held in the Unit Holder’s account into the fund selected by the Unit Holder. The minimum number of Units for each switching transaction is 500 Units.


201

Switching is treated as a withdrawal from one (1) fund and an investment into another fund. A Unit Holder switching from a fund with a lower sales charge, to a fund with a higher sales charge will pay the difference in sales charge between the sales charge of these two (2) funds. If a Unit Holder switches from one (1) fund with higher sales charge to another fund with a lower sales charge, the Unit Holder will switch at the NAV per unit of the another fund. Switching from Shariah-compliant fund to a conventional fund is discouraged especially for Muslim Unit Holders. Transfer of Units Units of any of the Funds are transferable without any fee and restrictions. A copy of the “Transfer Form” can be obtained from the Manager’s office. However, if the transfer request leaves a Unit Holder with less than 500 Units (Minimum Holdings), the Manager will not proceed with the transfer request and the transaction is considered void until the Unit Holder makes a fresh application for the transfer request. Cooling-Off Right A cooling-off right refers to the right of the investor to obtain a refund of his/her investment if he/she so requests within the cooling-off period (within six (6) Business Days from the date of rece ipt of application) . This is to allow investors the opportunity to reverse their investment decision that could have been unduly influenced by certain external elements or factors (EPF investors are subject to EPF’s terms and conditions). The cooling-off right is only given to an investor, other than those listed below, who is investing for the first time in any unit trust funds managed by the Manager: (i) a corporation or institution; (ii) a staff of the Manager; and (iii) persons registered to deal in unit trust funds of the Manager. Within the cooling-off period, the refund to the investors shall not be less than the sum of: (a) the NAV of the Units on the day the Units were purchased; and (b) the sales charge originally imposed on the day the Units were purchased. In other words, the investors shall be refunded their “original investment proceeds”, within ten (10) days (from the date of receipt of the cooling-off notice by the investors). EPF investors are subject to the terms and conditions of the EPF. Any application for cooling-off must be made before the cut-off time of 4.00 p.m. on any Business Day.

21. TAX ADVISER’S LETTER

Taxation adviser’s letter in respect of the taxatio n of the unit trust and the unit holders

(prepared for inclusion in this prospectus) Ernst & Young Tax Consultants Sdn Bhd 14 May 2014 Level 23A, Menara Milenium Pusat Bandar Damansara 50490 Kuala Lumpur The Board of Directors Kenanga Investors Berhad Suite 12.02, Kenanga International Jalan Sultan Ismail 50250 Kuala Lumpur Dear Sirs Taxation of the unit trust and Unit Holders This letter has been prepared for inclusion in this Master Prospectus to be dated 30 June 2014 in connection with the offer of units in the following unit trusts known as:

• Kenanga Premier Fund • Kenanga Growth Fund • Kenanga Islamic Fund • Kenanga Syariah Growth Fund • Kenanga Asia Pacific Total Return Fund • Kenanga Balanced Fund • Kenanga Islamic Balanced Fund • Kenanga Bond Fund • Kenanga Malaysian Inc Fund • Kenanga Cash Plus Fund • Kenanga i-Enhanced Cash Fund •

• Kenanga Islamic Money Market Fund • Kenanga Money Market Fund • Kenanga Blue Chip Fund • Kenanga Growth Opportunities Fund • Kenanga Shariah Growth Opportunities Fund • Kenanga Ekuiti Fund • Kenanga Managed Growth Fund • Kenanga Diversified Fund • Kenanga Shariah Balanced Fund • Kenanga Income Plus Fund • Kenanga Bon Islma Fund

(hereinafter referred to as “the Fund”). The purpose of this letter is to provide prospective unit holders with an overview of the impact of taxation on the Fund and the Unit Holders. Taxation of the fund The taxation of the Fund is subject to the provisions of the Malaysian Income Tax Act, 1967 (“MITA”), particularly Sections 61 and 63B. Under Section 2(7) of the MITA, any reference to interest shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to gains or profits received and expenses incurred, in lieu of interest, in transactions conducted in accordance with the principles of Syariah.


241

The effect of this is that any gains or profits received (hereinafter referred to as “profits”) and expenses incurred, in lieu of interest, in transactions conducted in accordance with the principles of Syariah, will be accorded the same tax treatment as if they were interest. Subject to certain exemptions, the income of the Fund comprising dividends, profits and other investment income derived from or accruing in Malaysia after deducting tax allowable expenses, is subject to Malaysian income tax, which is currently imposed at the rate of 25%1. Tax allowable expenses would comprise expenses falling under Section 33(1) and Section 63B of the MITA. Section 33(1) permits a deduction for expenses that are wholly and exclusively incurred in the production of gross income. In addition, Section 63B allows unit trusts a deduction for a portion of other expenses (referred to as ‘permitted expenses’) not directly related to the production of income, as explained below. “Permitted expenses” refer to the following expenses incurred by the Fund which are not deductible under Section 33(1) of the MITA: • the manager's remuneration, • maintenance of the register of unit holders, • share registration expenses, • secretarial, audit and accounting fees, telephone charges, printing and stationery costs and postage.

These expenses are given a partial deduction under Section 63B of the MITA, based on the following formula: A x B 4C where A is the total of the permitted expenses incurred for that basis period;

B is gross income consisting of dividend1, interest and rent chargeable to tax for that basis period; and

C is the aggregate of the gross income consisting of dividend2 (whether exempt or not), interest

and rent, and gains made from the realisation of investments (whether chargeable to tax or not) for that basis period,

provided that the amount of deduction to be made shall not be less than 10% of the total permitted expenses incurred for that basis period. Exempt income The following income of the Fund is exempt from income tax: • Malaysian sourced dividends

Tax exempt dividends received from investments in companies which had previously enjoyed or are currently enjoying certain tax incentives provided under the relevant legislation. Paragraph 12B, Schedule 6 of MITA states that exempt dividend includes any dividend paid, credited or distributed to any person where the company paying such dividend is not entitled to deduct tax under Section 108 of MITA.

________________________________________________________________________________________ 1 In the 2014 Budget announcement, it was proposed that this income tax rate be reduced to 24% with effect from the year of

assessment 2016. This proposal has yet to be legislated. 2 Pursuant to Section 15 of the Finance Act 2011, with effect from the year of assessment 2011, dividend income is deemed

to include income distributed by a unit trust which includes distributions from Real Estate Investment Trusts.


242

• Malaysian sourced interest (profits)

(i) interest from securities or bonds issued or guaranteed by the government of Malaysia; (ii) interest from debentures or Islamic securities, (other than convertible loan stock) approved by the

Securities Commission; (iii) interest from Bon Simpanan Malaysia issued by Bank Negara Malaysia; (iv) interest derived from Malaysia and paid or credited by banks or financial institutions licensed

under the Banking and Financial Institutions Act 1989 or the Islamic Banking Act 19833;

(v) interest from Islamic securities originating from Malaysia, other than convertible loan stock issued in any currency in Malaysia and approved by Securities Commission or Labuan Offshore Financial Services Authority (LOFSA)4

(vi) interest received from bonds or securities issued by Pengurusan Danaharta Nasional Berhad;

and (vii) interest derived from bonds (other than convertible loan stock) paid or credited by any company

listed on the Malaysian Exchange of Securities Dealing and Automated Quotation Berhad (MESDAQ)5.

• Discount

Tax exemption is given on discount paid or credited to any unit trust in respect of investments as specified in items (i), (ii) and (iii) above.

Foreign sourced income

Dividends, profits and other income derived from sources outside Malaysia and received in Malaysia by a resident unit trust is exempt from Malaysian income tax. However, such income may be subject to tax in the country from which it is derived.

Gains from the realisation of investments

Pursuant to Section 61(1) (b) of the MITA, gains from the realisation of investments will not be treated as income of the Fund and hence, are not subject to income tax. Such gains may be subject to real property gains tax ("RPGT") under the Real Property Gains Tax Act, 1976 (“RPGT Act”), if the gains are derived from the sale of chargeable assets, as defined in the RPGT Act. ________________________________________________________________________________________ 3 The Banking and Financial Institution Act 1989 and the Islamic Banking Act 1983 were repealed and replaced with the

Financial Services Act 2013 and the Islamic Financial Services Act 2013, respectively, with effect from 30 June 2013. Pursuant to Section 272(h) of the Financial Services Act 2013 and Section 283(h0 of the Islamic Financial Services Act 2013, any reference to the Banking and Financial Institutions Act 1989 and the Islamic Banking Act 1983 in any written law shall generally be construed as a reference to the Financial Services Act 2013 or the Islamic Financial Services Act 2013, respectively.

4 Pursuant to Section 4 of the Finance Act 2011, with effect from 11 February 2010, ‘LOFSA’ refers to Labuan Financial Services Authority (LFSA).

5 MESDAQ was replaced by FTSE Bursa Malaysia ACE with effect from 3 August 2009, therefore any interest derived from bonds (other than convertible loan stock) paid or credited by any company listed on the MESDAQ should still qualify for an exemption up to 2 August 2009. However, from 3 August 2009 and up to the date of this letter, there is no new gazette order issued to exempt interest derived from bonds paid or credited by a company listed in the new FTSE Bursa Malaysia ACE.


243

Taxation of unit holders For Malaysian income tax purposes, unit holders will be taxed on their share of the distributions received from the Fund. The income of unit holders from their investment in the Fund broadly falls under the following categories: 1. taxable distributions; and 2. non-taxable and exempt distributions. In addition, unit holders may also realise a gain from the sale of units. The tax implications of each of the above categories are explained below:

1. Taxable distributions

Distributions received from the Fund will have to be grossed up to take into account the underlying tax paid by the Fund and the unit holder will be taxed on the grossed up amount.

Such distributions carry a tax credit, which will be available for set-off against any Malaysian income tax payable by the unit holder. Should the tax deducted at source exceed the tax liability of the unit holder, the excess is refundable to the unit holder.

Distributions received by a non-resident unit holder from income which has been taxed at source at 25%, will not be subject to any further income tax in Malaysia.

Please refer to the paragraph below for the income tax rates applicable to the grossed up distributions.

2. Non-taxable and exempt distributions

Tax exempt distributions made out of gains from the realisation of investments and other exempt income earned by the Fund will not be subject to Malaysian tax in the hands of the unit holders.


244

Rates of tax The Malaysian income tax chargeable on the unit holders depends on their tax residence status and whether they are individuals, corporations or trust bodies. The income tax rates charged are as follows:
