Investor OutreachInvestor Relations

Highlights: Regional wealth manager meetings June 2017

7

• A number of investors were familiar with Hansa Trust, but had not met with the Company in some time.• Edison facilitated a first ‘reconnect’ meeting• many investors were keen to schedule further follow-up meetings

• The wide discount and portfolio repositioning makes Hansa potentially attractive

• All investors were supportive of Alec and his strategy on shaping the portfolio: ‘Alec is a safe pair of hands’

• The main barriers to the investment case:• Ocean Wilson’s stake – investors were keen to learn more about the macro

backdrop in Brazil and the Ocean Wilson’s stake • Liquidity in the Company’s shares

Investor OutreachInvestor Relations

Highlights: Subsequent key themes from meetings

8

• Investment strategy‘The recent changes made between 2014-2017 are encouraging and I like how

Alec has blended the portfolio selling down stakes in UK equities’‘The NAV is likely to grow rather than shrink from these levels’

• Transparency‘It’s a complex investment. Alec presented very well and everything became

very clear as the meeting progressed’‘Alec was brilliant, he was straight forward, pragmatic and so transparent.

Other managers should be as willing as he is to disclose and discuss their portfolios’

• The value case‘We were attracted to the prospect of having a discounted idea we could invest

in’‘There’s a reasonable dividend, it trades at a good discount and fees are fine’

‘Hansa Trust ticks a lot of boxes for us; no gearing, UK domiciled, nice dividend yield and the discount is very attractive‘We are investment trust specialists and like the value opportunity of the Trust’

HANSA TRUSTRecap………our aims and aspirations for Hansa Trust

20

• A proprietor-led vehicle with strong alignment (rather than an asset gathering entity)

• A multi-asset fund that offers something different from most other portfolios in the market place

• A fund aspiring to generate long-term returns and not short-term focused – a natural bias towards equities

• Dynamically managed asset allocation

• A focus on real risk rather than relative returns

• A fund providing access to best-in-class managers not normally available to the man on the street and direct equity investments

HANSA TRUSTMarket outlook … but still more to go for

Some signs of exuberance but not what you normally

get at the peak of cycles

Other asset classes remain expensive –what else do you do with your money?

HANSA TRUSTConclusion

34

• Stock markets are arguably looking long in the tooth

• Despite this, the features one would normally expect to see at a market peak are not yet in place – for this reason we still see more upside in equities

• We would expect more volatility from here - last year’s low volatility was an anomaly –and we are getting prepared to add to more defensive positions as the cycle evolves

• Japan, emerging, Asian and frontier markets preferred geographies. Technology and healthcare remain attractive longer term themes

PASSIVELow cost but guaranteed sub market returns. Also structurally biased towards those companies and sectors that are becoming more expensive and not managed for market risk

HANSA TRUST

THIRD PARTYCan be higher cost with two layers of fees in a fund structure. However, you can invest in best-in-class managers globally (unlikely to be able to do this internally), access all markets/sectors and sell those managers which are underperforming

INTERNALLower cost than third party managers and provides another source of alpha in a portfolio. However you are typically locked into your internal offering regardless of how good it is!

The fee debate is nuanced. Clearly you want to keep fees down to reduce friction but going low cost may work to your detriment in the longer term. We have blended elements of all the options in Hansa Trust.
