  1. 3-year Fund Volatility AmASEAN Equity 7 .42 Moderate July 2017 Lipper Analytics 31 May 2017 AmASEAN Equity (the "Fund") seeks to provide capital growth over the Medium to Long Term by investing in Shariah Compliant equities and equity-related securities with exposure to the ASEAN markets. The Fund is suitable for investors who: • seeking to participate in an investment of the fast growing ASEAN economies; and • who are willing to take higher risks in anticipation of potentially higher returns over the Medium to Long Term Investment Strategy • 70% to 98% of the Fund's NAV will be invested in a diversified portfolio of equities and equityrelated securities which are Shariah Compliant, issued by companies listed in the ASEAN countries, and including securities listed in non-ASEAN countries but with their core business in the ASEAN markets. • Core business in this respect means the major business of the company, where majority of the company's revenue (at least 50%) is derived from the ASEAN country(ies) at the point of investment.

Meanwhile the Fund is also positive on Indonesia but cautiously optimistic on Singapore and Philippine’s markets. The Fund remains watchful on Thailand and would be looking for catalysts to upgrade from underweight to neutral. -10.00 -20.00 Jun-11 AmASEAN Equity S&P Shariah ASEAN Index Jun-17 The value of units may go down as well as up.
