Emerging Markets Debt: Seeking Alpha in a Developing Asset Class

May 2013 FFTW Emerging Markets Fixed Income I May 2013 I 1

The World of Emerging Markets Investments Has Changed

● Today, we see Fixed Income as…

– a diverse, balanced and rich asset class, no longer a directional exotic alpha play

– an increasingly attractive opportunity when compared with developed markets

– mainstream, driven by idiosyncratic elements but with a continually changing relationship with global events

A Diversification Must-Have FFTW Emerging Markets Fixed Income I May 2013 I 2

Market Trends Why are global investors are adding exposure to EM Fixed Income

1. Geographic diversification of investments : A ‘fundamentals’ story that only gets better: EM countries currently have lower debt levels, healthier balance sheets than the developed world, and are mostly investment grade

2. Improving liquidity: EMFI is a very large asset class with a market cap close to USD12 trillion*, which is equal to 7% of global equities and bonds*

3. Strong Technicals: Large inflows from global institutional investors (Central banks and Pension Funds) which have just started their diversification process in EMFI vs. low issuance

4. Higher yields resulting from strong growth and inflation dynamics. Also, potential for strong currencies as a result of productivity and growth outperformance

5. Large shift in risk perception as emerging fixed income markets mature

A Fundamentals Story That Only Gets Better Strong sovereign balance sheets

Total Emerging Markets External Debt (% GDP) 40% Significant reductions in external debt: 35%

● Lower reliance on external funding 30%

● Select emerging market sovereigns can now 25% claim the status of net external creditor 20%

Strong external reserve positions: ● International reserves give countries greater ability to manage volatility ● Emerging sovereigns’ reserve positions reduces vulnerability to external shocks

13 www.omgxtus.com Introducing African Markets... • Africa underrated: – Africa collective GDP in 2008 of $1.6 trillion is roughly equal to that of Brazil or Russia – By 2040 Africa will have the world’s largest workforce ever in human history with 1.1 billion people of working age – 316 million new mobile phone subscribers who signed up in Africa since 2000

• Africa markets offer the potential for high growth relative to advanced economies* – Largest growth outside of Asia – Growing middle class (Now larger than Indian middle class) – Growing population (45% of population is under the age of 15) – By 2030, the continent's top 18 cities could have combined spending power of $1.3 trillion. – Africa represents 60% of the world’s total uncultivated, arable land

• The “smart money” is already moving: China’s infrastructure commitments in sub-Saharan Africa have surpasses the World Bank’s on a yearly basis since 2005

• Limited liquidity lends itself to buy and hold, which fits well with indexation

• African stock markets typically do not allow shorting of instruments

• Africa Markets have lower correlations relative to other equity markets

18 www.omgxtus.com But Why Does the Efficient Market Hypothesis Not Work, in Reality, in the World’s Least Liquid Markets The following are prohibitive hurdles to producing significant and consistent alpha

Information lags theoretically should produce opportunities for producing alpha, however; • Implementation costs in some of the world’s most liquid markets are prohibitive in order to survive, trading frequency must be minimal and well orchestrated; • For Global Emerging and Frontier Market Active Managers: The EM and Frontier Markets are not homogenous and therefore are driven by different regional influences. The learning curve is steep and inconsistent; • Practical Consideration: Frontier Market managers typically have short track records, given the relative novelty of the asset class

In Slide 20 “Implementation Costs in Some of the World’s Most Illiquid Markets are Prohibitive” and Slide 21 “Emerging Markets – Not that Easy to Outperform”:

• the actual historical volume and volatility are applied to the securities in the basket. Expected Impact cost is based on the mean of the historical volume and volatility values. Favorable and unfavorable markets are one standard deviation away from the mean. A favorable/unfavorable market will depend on the direction of the market in relation to the direction of the trade.

• Optimal participation is defined as the value of daily market liquidity that would have the least impact on the price, ignoring the time it would take to actually get into the position.

• Constant participation is defined as the assumption of evenly distributed trading during a day.

• Optimal time is defined as taking the time it takes to get into the position into consideration (TE risk) along with market impact cost. Two different graphs that slope towards each other. Their intersection gives you the optimal time to trade.

• Constant time is defined as taking 100% of market liquidity, until your position is filled.
