That reminder now appears timely. For the six months ended 31st March 2021 the total return on net assets, with debt calculated at fair value1, was 0.5%. This compares with a total return for the same period from the Company’s benchmark index return, the Tokyo Stock Exchange First Section (TOPIX) Index (in sterling terms), of 8.5%. The share price Christopher Samuel Chairman total return, with dividends reinvested, increased over the same period by 4.6% (from 619.0p to 643.0p) as the discount narrowed. As the Investment Managers explain in their report on the following pages, the principal reason for the underperformance was a move in market sentiment towards companies expected to benefit from the rise in economic activity following the vaccine rollout. Owing to the expected short term nature of these gains they are not companies the Investment Managers had invested in. Performance was also negatively impacted by the more general rotation from growth to value stocks.

Lake Partners, Inc. 24 Field Point Road Greenwich, CT 06830 203-661-5100 tel 203-661-0587 fax www.lakevest.com [email protected] Part I: Public Policy and the Investing Public The Challenge for a Generation of Investors The United States is facing the largest generation of retirees in its history, with financial requirements of great magnitude and uncertain funding. How is this generation going to save and invest for retirement? One of the major vehicles for retirement investing is the mutual fund. Mutual fund industry assets approximate $6 trillion, down from a peak of over $7 trillion. 2 The leading factor in the decline of mutual fund assets was depreciation during the three year bear market following the stock market peak in early 2000. Losses by investors in mutual funds for that challenging investment climate are estimated as: Mutual Fund Losses 2000 – 2002 Loss Year $315.0 billion 2000 $477.7 billion 2001 $605.5 billion 2002 $1.4 trillion Total Loss Source: Financial Resource Corporation Ó 2003 From a public policy point of view, a $1.4 trillion loss for the retirement funds of a generation may not be acceptable. If one were to approach this pool as a fiduciary, one would try to develop a plan and structure moving forward which would help this investment pool be more robust, be better able to weather a wide variety of unforeseen financial market environments, and be more likely to provide returns to meet future needs of beneficiaries.
