Annual Fund Review 04 Exide Life Insurance Investment Philosophy Our policyholders are investing their hard earned money with specific objectives of protection and longer-term investment returns. Two of the basic expectations of our customers are thus, Safety and Returns, and we need to balance both these expectations in terms of the asset-allocation, underlying investments, and subsequent monitoring. These customer expectations are an important consideration in our investment management philosophy and strategy. The underlying investment philosophy is to ensure safety and deliver consistent, stable returns over the longer-term, for a given level of risk. This is achieved with a well-defined and disciplined investment process. There is an emphasis on compliance and robust risk-management in the investment process, both pre-investment and post- investment. As a company and as an investment team, we focus on the long-term.

SHOBIT GUPTA Senior Vice President (Investments) - Fixed Income Pranav Parekh Sumeet Hinduja Fund Manager - Fixed Income portfolio Fund Manager - Equity portfolio Annual Fund Review 05 Risk Control Risk management is an integral part of our investment process. The company has well-defined risk policies and processes covering both portfolio and process risk. Further, the company has systems and software in place to monitor compliance of Regulations and Investments norms on a daily basis. The operating policy for each asset class defines, the framework within which the investments are made in specific funds. Most of our equity investments are in securities which are constituents of the S&P BSE-500 or the NSE Nifty-500 universe, and predominantly above a market capitalization of `10,000 crore. The portfolio is well-diversified across companies and industries as a risk-mitigation measure. The debt portfolio of the company is mostly invested in assets of the highest credit quality i.e. Government of India securities, and AAA rated securities, with only a small exposure to AA rated securities. The key risk management policy adopted is maintaining high standards of credit quality of the portfolio and maintaining an optimum duration depending on the market outlook. The exposure to stocks and duration of bonds changes, over time based on an indepth analysis of the factors affecting these markets. A reasonable level of liquidity is also maintained within the respective funds so as to enable smooth redemption process on account of switches or claims.
