  1. 19 .54 Very High 10 Sep 2022 KAF DANA ADIB (KDA) SEPTEMBER 2022 The fund aims to attain capital growth in the medium to long-term through investing in securities listed in the Malaysian equities market whilst abiding by Shariah principles. THE FUND IS SUITABLE FOR INVESTORS WHO:    Seek high capital appreciation over a longer period of time and do not expect any dividend or regular income from Shariah-compliant investment; Willing to accept moderate to high risk tolerance; and Prefer to invest in Shariah-compliant securities. SECTOR ALLOCATION* AS AT 31 AUGUST 2022 MANAGER’S COMMENTS Regional markets suffered steep losses in August 2022 (August), with major United States (US) indices such as Dow Jones, Standard & Poor (S&P) 500, and NASDAQ declined by 4.06%, 4.24%, and 4.64% respectively as rate hike angst continue to pile pressure on risk assets. The US Federal Reserve signaled that the central bank would continue to stay on its tightening path to rein in inflation, despite of the short-term pain to consumers and businesses. Meanwhile, STOXX Europe 600 stumbled by 5.29% amid ongoing worries over inflation particularly on high gas and electricity prices. However, Japan’s Nikkei 225 increased by 1.04% in the same period. The Chinese markets fell lower in August, with Hang Seng Composite Index, Shanghai Composite Index, and Shen Zhen Composite Index falling by 1.00%, 1.57%, and 3.91% respectively, as the domestic economy continued to struggle over renewed lockdowns following fresh COVID-19 outbreaks in major cities. Malaysia’s equity indices extended gains in August as the Financial Times Stock Exchange Bursa Malaysia (FBM) Kuala Lumpur Composite Index (KLCI) FBMKLCI Index, FBM EMAS Index, and FBM Emas Shariah Index went up by 1.33%, 0.90%, and 0.73% respectively. Bursa closed higher in August in tandem with better-than-expected Gross Domestic Product (GDP) growth of 8.9%. The average volume traded on the exchange in August increased by 29% month-on-month (MoM) to Ringgit Malaysia (RM) 1.74 billion (bn) from RM1.34bn in the previous month. In commodities, crude oil prices dropped in August by 12.29% to US Dollar (USD) 96.49 per barrel, as recession fear grows continued to dampen the demand. Gold prices fell by 2.61% as the US Treasury yield strengthened. Crude palm oil prices fell by 3.38% in August; Indonesia had lifted a levy on vegetable oil exports until 31st August, aiming to reduce stocks and boost exports. Malaysia's Ringgit depreciated against the USD by 0.55%, closing at RM4.48 at the end of August. *As percentage Net Asset Value of the fund. Asset exposure is subject to change on a daily basis.

Cumulative return over the period (% since inception) The latest manufacturing Purchasing Managers’ Index (PMI) in Asia fell further into the recessionary territory and is unlikely to improve in the coming months as China continues to struggle with its zero-Covid approach. Commodity prices continued to slump in August, driven mainly by weak manufacturing PMI data and inflation data, painting a gloomy outlook for the global economy. We think the near-term outlook for commodities is rather challenging as new export order PMIs in China fell, which has been a reliable leading indicator. Nevertheless, we believe that the downtrend in oil price may be over as Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) has indicated that they intend to reduce the oil output to support the oil price; hence we would like to reiterate our optimism toward the outlook of the energy sector. INVESTMENT STRATEGY The strategic limit on asset allocation of the fund is as follows:  Shariah-compliant equities: Minimum 70% and maximum 90%.  Sukuk and Islamic liquid assets : Minimum 10% and maximum 30% FUND DETAILS AS AT 31 AUGUST 2022 Manager Trustee Fund Category Fund Type Launch Date Unit net asset value (NAV) Fund size Units in Circulation Financial Year End Min.
