Reserve Sub-Fund HGIF Euro Reserve For the period 1 April 2009 to 30 September 2009, the Fund returned 0.15% (net of fees, Class AC), against a benchmark return of 0.28% (European Overnight Index Average – EONIA). During the period the eurozone suffered a recession, while headline inflation remained negative. In this context, the European Central Bank (ECB) decided to cut its refinancing interest rate from 1.25% to 1.00% in early May. As a second measure, the ECB added considerable liquidity to the inter-bank system. As a consequence the excess liquidity pushed the EONIA to a record low level (and well below the eurozone refinancing rate). However, recent data showed that the eurozone managed to exit the recession sooner than had been expected. Real GDP seemed to have expanded again in the third quarter of 2009, after contracting marginally in spring 2009. The economic outlook remains uncertain with a poor labour market. The Manager remained cautious during the period and maintained liquidity within the Fund by investing mainly in government bonds. Bond Sub-Funds HGIF Brazil Bond For the period 1 April 2009 to 30 September 2009, the Fund returned 34.00% (net of fees Class AC), against a benchmark return of 36.20% (Brazilian Interbank Rate). During the period, the Brazilian Real appreciated significantly against the US Dollar and other major currencies, on the expectation that the country would be among the first to emerge from the global recession, boosted by resiliant local consumer. The government interest rate was cut by a further 2.50% between March and July. Along with other local measures, such as tax breaks for durable goods and lower reserve requirements, this created a more benign environment for economic activity. Although the base rate was cut, bond yields of the longer end of the curve widened by 0.80% over the period, as the outlook for the economy became more positive. After increasing the duration of the Fund in March, the Manager managed duration tactically reducing it during the rest of the period. The credit quality of the Fund remained unchanged, currently holding around one-third of its assets in local sovereign bonds with the remainder invested in certificates of deposit issued by top tier local banks.
