“A balanced portfolio solution provides investors with the opportunity to participate in returns from a variety of domestic and foreign assets. These different asset classes give investors diversification benefits that provide them with the comfort that their exposure to downside risk is being mitigated whilst gaining the benefit of achieving inflation-beating returns.”STANLIB Multi-Asset Franchise

STANLIB Multi-Asset Franchise:The STANLIB Multi-Asset Franchise manages, inter alia, the following core unit trust funds:

Љ STANLIB Balanced Cautious Fund Љ STANLIB Balanced Fund

Investment Objective of the STANLIB Multi- Asset Franchise

Љ The primary objective of all investments is to deliver long-term real returns to investors.

Љ Based on an investor’s risk appetite, the STANLIB Multi-Asset Franchise provides investors with long-term real return solutions from:

1. A moderately conservative risk appetite with the STANLIB Balanced Cautious Fund, targeting CPI +3% returns over a rolling 3-5 year time horizon; to

2. A moderately aggressive risk appetite with the STANLIB Balanced Fund targeting CPI + 5% returns over a rolling 5-7 year time horizon

Љ Drawdown risk is actively managed using our allocation to lower risk assets classes, such as domestic and offshore cash and treasuries at different parts of the business cycle.

How does the STANLIB Multi-Asset Franchise achieve this objective?

Љ Intrinsic value forms the foundation of all our investment decision making.

Љ We believe that economic cycles do exist and our view on intrinsic value is complemented by overlaying our view of the business cycle, which influences the future direction of interest rates and informs the conviction of our positioning in the various asset classes available to us.

Љ Input is gathered from the in-house specialists on everything from economics to domestic equity sector views and global bond input. This includes input from 35 investment professionals locally, 45 across the continent and 150 globally.

Љ Once all the input has been debated, we formulate our view, resulting in well-informed asset allocation decisions that assist in achieving our funds’ stated objectives.

Љ Depth: The quarterly Tactical Asset Allocation (TAA) meeting, which informs the asset allocation in our Funds, relies on the input of 35 investment professionals locally, 45 across the continent, and 150 globally. This, we believe, results in well informed asset allocation decisions

The specialist teams that contribute to the Balanced Cautious and Balanced Fund

Equity Franchise

The Multi-Asset Franchise is also responsible for managing the Core Equity Franchise. They have worked together for years and leverage off each other’s strengths to create team synergies evidenced in their fund performance.

The Core Equity Franchise overlays their own research and convictions over the broader in-house equity research before making any buy or sell decisions. The research overlay focuses on causal drivers of earnings, cash flows and returns. They require analysts to provide extensive input into the key criteria that they believe are drivers of earnings, cash flows and returns.

They believe in the importance of anticipating economic cycles and determining which industries are best placed to benefit.

Fixed Interest Franchise

The Fixed Interest Team, which is headed up by Henk Viljoen, is highly qualified with extensive experience in the industry and has been working together for over 10 years. The Franchise houses the Money Market, Bonds, Income, Liability Driven Investments and Credit Teams.

Other fixed interest managers typically develop skills that allow for outperformance of their benchmark through predominantly one strategy. Individual strategies can result in outperformance from time to time but they may not do so consistently. The Fixed Interest Franchise aims to exploit multiple strategies on a continuous basis, to be better positioned to outperform during all phases of the market.

Listed Property Franchise

The Listed Property Franchise is a leading Listed Property Manager in the country. In addition, the size of their Property book and their strong ties to Liberty Properties and Standard Bank Properties further strengthens their influence when it comes to voting, private placements and liquidity. The Franchise is headed by Keillen Ndlovu.

STANLIB’s specialist asset class management approach allows the Team to make use of an all-encompassing, thorough research process and portfolio construction process. The focus and dedication of the Team to a single asset class only, enables the use of both a broad top-down, as well as detailed asset-specific, bottom-up approach.

Global (Managed by Offshore Partners)

– Global Equities

Founded in 1994, Threadneedle is an established global asset manager with assets under management of US$150.1 billion with a compliment of over 160 investment professionals. Their sole focus is the active management of client assets across equities, fixed income, commodities, multi-asset exposures and property. Threadneedle offers emerging market exposure within a diversified global portfolio of 70 – 110 stocks.

The Threadneedle investment process is driven primarily using bottom-up fundamental analysis, although some top-down analysis is applied in the context of the macro environment. Their investment style is market driven and the portfolio is not expected to display persistent style biases over different economic cycles – therefore style agnostic.Their strategy exploits value opportunities during value cycles and growth opportunities during growth cycles.

– Global Bonds

Founded in 1986, Brandywine Global Investment Management manages US$63 billion in assets as at 31 December 2014. Core to their principles is seeking value not yet recognised by others. Brandywine applies a top-down, value-driven process when structuring global income portfolios. Real (inflation-adjusted) yield is their primary measure of value.

Currency valuation is next in importance, as the real yield must be captured in US dollars. They focus on appreciating, undervalued currencies and overvalued currencies that can be hedged. Inflation trends, political risks, monetary trends, and business cycle and liquidity measures are also considered.Brandywine typically concentrate investments in eight to 16 countries that appear to offer the best total return potential.

– Global Cash

Fidelity Worldwide Investment (FIL Limited) was established in 1969 and provides asset management services to investors all over the world. They have portfolio management and research staff in major financial centres around the world and offices in 25 countries. Fidelity International and its subsidiaries manage assets worth $276 billion (as at 30 September 2014).

The cornerstone of Fidelity’s investment approach is research. As well as studying financial results, analysts and fund managers visit companies, meet their managers and talk to suppliers, customers and distributors, giving the investment team a clear 360° view of each company they invest in.

DisclaimerCollective investment schemes in securities are generally medium to long-term investments. The value of participatory interests may go down as well as up and past performance is not necessarily a guide to the future. An investment in the participations of a collective investment scheme in securities is not the same as a deposit with a banking institution. Participatory interest prices are calculated on a net asset value basis, which is the total value of all assets in the Fund including any income accrual and less any permissible deductions from the Fund divided by the number of participatory interests in issue. Permissible deductions include brokerage, UST, auditor’s fees, bank charges, trustee/custodian fees and the service charge levied by STANLIB Collective Investments (RF) Limited (“the Manager”). Where exit fees are applicable, participatory interests are redeemed at the net asset value where after the exit fee is deducted and the balance is paid to the investor. A Portfolio of a collective investment scheme in securities may borrow up to 10% of the market value of the Fund to bridge insufficient liquidity as a result of the redemption of participatory interests, and may also engage in scrip lending.

Where different classes of participatory interests apply to certain Portfolios, they would be subject to different fees and charges. A schedule of fees and charges and maximum commissions is available on request from the Manager. Commission and incentives may be paid and if so, would be included in the overall costs. The exposure limit to a single security in this Portfolio can be greater than is permitted for other Portfolios in terms of the Collective Investment Schemes Control Act, 2002 (“the Act”). Details are available from the Manager. A Fund of Funds Portfolio only invests in other collective investment schemes, which levy their own charges, which could result in a higher fee structure for these portfolios. A Feeder Fund Portfolio only invests in the participatory interests of a single Portfolio of a collective investment scheme apart from assets in liquid form. The Manager reserves the right to close certain Portfolios from time to time in order to manage them more efficiently. More details are available from the Manager. Forward pricing is used.

Fluctuations or movements in exchange rates may cause the value of underlying international investments to go up or down. The Manager undertakes to repurchase participatory interests at the price calculated according to the requirements of the Collective Investment Schemes Control Act, 2002, and on the terms and conditions of the relevant Deeds. Payment will be made within 14 days of receipt of a valid repurchase form. Any capital gain realized on the disposal of a participatory interest in a collective investment scheme is subject to Capital Gains Tax (CGT). All portfolios are valued on a daily basis at 15h00 except forFund of Funds which are valued at 24h00. For Non-Money Market funds, investments and repurchases will receive the price ofthe same day if a complete instruction is received prior to 15h00. The Fund Charges document (including the Performance Fee Frequently Asked Questions) is available on www.stanlib.com (“Investment for Individuals” section).
