17 Positioning & Performance What are the Current Investment Themes?

Investment Implementation Rationale Themes

Preference for UK versus core Euro The of England has more room for (Neutral core duration overall) interest rate cuts versus the ECB

Preference for Spain versus Italy Upcoming constitutional referendum in Italy Sovereigns (Neutral peripheral sovereigns overall) likely to cause political uncertainty

Preference for Ireland versus France Better growth potential for Ireland should result in spread compression

Ongoing ECB monetary policy support Overweight Euro corporate credit Corporates Selective exposure to covered bonds Purchased in January at levels we deemed attractive

Allocation to core European inflation ECB policy is likely to have a positive effect Inflation linked bonds on inflation

We currently see limited investment Predominantly neutral Currency opportunities
