The only expense of the Fund is the management fee payable to the Manager which is calculated at 0.10% per annum of the assets under management on a daily basis.

Increased consumer demand for greater transparency in financial services and the recognition thereof by the collective investment industry requires Collective Investment Scheme (CIS) managers to calculate and publish a total expense ratio for each Fund under their management. This is a requirement in terms of the Association for Savings and Investments South Africa (ASISA) standard on the calculation and publication of total expense ratios. STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE The information in this summarised report has been extracted from the audited annual financial statements, which were prepared in accordance with the JSE Listing Requirements for abridged reports, and the requirements of CISCA, in order to meet the requirements of the Trust Deed approved by the Financial Services Conduct Authority. The listing requirements require abridged reports to be prepared in accordance with the framework concepts and the measurement and recognition of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and the SAICA Financial Reporting Guides as issued by the Accounting Practices Committee, and the Financial Reporting Pronouncements as issued by the Financial Reporting Standards Council and to also, as a minimum, contain the information required by IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting. This announcement does not include the information required pursuant to paragraph 16A(j) of IAS 34. The full report is available on the issuer’s website, at the issuer’s registered offices and upon request. These financial statements were authorised for issue by the board of directors of the Manager on 28 March 2019. ACCOUNTING POLICIES The accounting policies applied in the preparation of the financial statements from which the summary financial statements were derived are in terms of International Financial Reporting Standards. No comparative figures have been presented as this is the Fund's first period of trading. NEW STANDARDS AND INTERPRETATIONS NOT YET ADOPTED The following standards, amendments to standards and interpretations effective for the first time in future accounting periods and which are relevant to the Fund have not been early adopted. Amendment to IFRS 9: Prepayment Features with Negative Compensation Effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019 Under the current IFRS 9 requirements, the SPPI (solely payments of principal and interest) condition is not met if the lender has to make a settlement payment in the event of termination by the borrower (also referred to as early repayment gain). Prepayment Features with Negative Compensation amends the existing requirements in IFRS 9 regarding termination rights in order to allow measurement at amortised cost (or, depending on the business model, at fair value through other comprehensive income) even in the case of negative compensation payments. INVESTMENT INCOME Investment income comprises: • Interest income earned on cash and cash equivalents; • Cash equalisation component on creations (at the time of creation it represents the income portion attributable to the net asset value at the time that is payable by the creating party); and • Dividends from listed equities held at fair value through profit or loss. INTEREST INCOME Interest income is recognised in profit or loss using the effective interest method taking into account the expected timing and amount of cash flows. DIVIDEND INCOME Dividend income is recognised when the right to receive the payment is established. This is usually the ex-dividend date for quoted equities.
