01 02 2004 Annual Report Words from the Chairman

The global economic recovery in 2004 ushered in a new spring across most industry sectors. The last year has also been one of hard work and progress for Shin Kong Financial Holding Company (SKFHC). New Light Asset Management (NLAM) and Shin Kong Commercial Bank joined the group's existing insurance and securities businesses, moving SKFHC closer to its goal of becoming a one-stop provider of comprehensive financial services.

NLAM joined the SKFHC fold in April 2004. By year-end it had achieved profitability and full subscription of གྷᒉ۰۞ྖ two new funds: the inauguration fund "New Light Growth Fund," now one of the top-five equity funds in , and the "New Light Taiwan Bond Fund," which earned a "twAAf" rating from Taiwan Ratings in recognition of the fund's operational model characterized by high liquidity and prudent investment דଠၮ˭ੵ˞ˠုăᙋܛߋ͇۞፷̄Ą࿅Ν˘ѐ۞Ӆ˧ĂາЍ˞זΝѐഀঈు႙ೇ൩ĂЧҖЧຽҬͼౌ࠻ standards.
