General Information

The management company of Swisscanto Asset Management International S.A. has decided to transfer the assets of

the subfund Teilfonds Swisscanto (LU) Portfolio Fund Dynamic 0 – 100 to the subfund Swisscanto (LU) Portfolio Fund

Dynamic 0 – 50 with effect on 20 August 2019 by means of a contribution in kind.

The assets of the transferor subfund were transferred to the transferee subfund. In return, the transferor subfund

received units in the transferee subfund. The transferor subfund then distributed the units in the transferee subfund to

its unitholders, who thus became unitholders in the transferee subfund on the basis set out in the table below.

The exchange ratios for the transferor and transferee subfund for the transfer of the units of the transferee subfund

were calculated on 20 August 2019 on the basis of the net asset values of the transferor and transferee subfund on 19

August 2019. The transfers took place on Tuesday, 20 August 2019.

The subfund Swisscanto (LU) Alternative Risk Premia Fund was liquidated on 4 April 2019.

Investment fund under Luxembourg “Umbrella Structure” Law

Swisscanto (LU) is subject to the legal provisions set forth in the first part of Luxembourg law regarding undertakings

for collective investment of 17 December 2010.

amendments have been deposited at the Registry of the District Court of Luxembourg.

The contractual conditions, the detailed sales prospectus, the key investor information, and the annual and semi-

annual reports may be obtained directly and free of charge in printed form from Swisscanto Fondsleitung AG, the head

office of the management company, the custodian bank and the representative in Switzerland, from the German

General Information (cont.)

Guidelines of the Swiss Funds and Asset Management Association (SFAMA) on duties regarding the

charging and use of fees and costs (22 May 2014)

Compensation for the marketing of the investment fund is paid out of the flat-rate administrative commission. The

fund management also intends to offer remuneration to institutional investors holding fund units for third parties from

the flat-rate administrative commission.

Risk management process

The management company applies a risk management process to the fund and each subfund that complies with the

UCI law and other applicable regulations, in particular CSSF circulars 11/512 and 13/559, CSSF regulation 10-4 and

CESR guidelines 10-788. As part of the risk management process, the total risk for each subfund is measured and

checked using the so-called commitment approach, with the exception of Swisscanto (LU) Commodity Fund ex-

Agriculture & Livestock and Swisscanto (LU) Alternative Risk Premia Fund.

In the commitment approach, positions in derivative financial instruments are converted into equivalent positions in

the underlying assets.

For the subfund Swisscanto (LU) Commodity Fund ex-Agriculture & Livestock, the total risk is measured and checked

using the relative value at risk (hereinafter "relative VaR") method. This risk measure must not exceed twice the value

of the subfund's reference portfolio.

For the subfund Swisscanto (LU) Alternative Risk Premia Fund, the total risk is measured and checked using the

absolute VaR method. The maximum absolute VaR is 12% (20 days, confidence interval 99%).

In addition to relative and absolute VaR, leverage is calculated on the basis of the sum of the notional values of the

derivative financial instruments (absolute notional value of the underlying assets of the derivative positions divided by

the net asset value of the portfolio).

Swisscanto (LU) Commodity Fund Ex-Agriculture & Livestock is the only VAR fund.

During the period from 1 April 2019 to 31 March 2020, VaR was as follows:

99% MCVaR 20d

VaR fund VaR exposure

Min 3.71 43.9%

Max 22.53 197.5%

Avg 9.20 112.5%

VaR Exposure means: VaR of the fund / VaR of the BM.

The VaR limit is 200% of the BM and was complied with at all times during the reference period.

Activity Report

Swisscanto (LU) Equity Fund Sustainable Emerging Markets

Market review

Emerging market stocks were generally down in the period under review and underperformed global equities in USD.

During the first half of the financial year, the trend on the markets was positive thanks to improved macroeconomic

conditions in many developing countries, rising corporate profits and a relatively stable political climate, supported by

relatively strong currencies.

The outbreak of the Covid-19 virus in the last quarter of the financial year posed an immense challenge not only for

the health of the world's population but also with regard to a massive economic shock. This led to sharp falls in share

prices worldwide in March 2020.

Review of relevant categories

Regionally, Asian emerging markets were by far the best performers, particularly in the last three months of the period

under review. Eastern Europe, the Middle East and Africa underperformed emerging markets overall. By country, Tai-

wan, China, South Korea and Russia were the best performers during the year.

Investor sentiment towards China was spurred on by a continued strong economic performance and a relatively swift

response to the Covid-19 outbreak. Korea and Taiwan have technology-heavy indices. Technology is a less capital-

intensive sector and should benefit from the digitisation of ways of working in the wake of the public health crisis. Cur-

rencies of Latin American countries such as Brazil, Mexico and Chile fell sharply during the crisis. Indonesia and South

Africa were also among the weakest countries.

Performance review

The fund outperformed its benchmark (MSCI Emerging Markets Index) during the reporting period. At regional level

our positions in India, South Africa and South Korea provided the largest relative contributions. There were negative

contributions from China, Russia and Indonesia.

At stock level, there were positive contributions from our positions in the technology sector (Samsung Electronics,

TSMC, SK Hynix), in India (Hindustan Unilever, Indraprashta Gas) and in China (Nari Technologies, Guangdong In-

vestments, Xinyi Solar).

There were negative contributions from our positions in Latin America (Gentera, Banco do Brasil, Duratex), Indonesia

(Telekomunikasi Indonesia, Bank Rakyat) and the Philippines (Ayala Land).

Market review

The equity markets were boosted at the start of the second quarter by better than expected corporate earnings and

economic data. May ended in the red as a result of the new tariffs levied on China by the US. In June, the markets

were boosted by the prospect of interest rate cuts by the US Federal Reserve.

The second quarter reporting season was solid, allowing for a rise in share prices in July. The trade war between the

US and China flared up again in August, leading to a sharp fall in bond yields. Government bond yields in Switzerland,

as well as in most European countries, hit new record lows. The situation settled down again in September. Fears of a

recession subsided and the markets were hopeful that solutions to the geopolitical problems might be possible. Yields

recovered and the equity markets also moved upwards.

In October, the rapprochement between the US and China in their trade war boosted the equity markets. Nevertheless,

the Fed cut interest rates again at the end of October in order to avoid an economic downturn, characterising the move

as an "insurance cut". The positive mood continued on the equity markets in November and December and many indi-

ces reached new record highs.

Following a strong start for the stock markets in the new year, the mood was quickly dampened by the first reports of

the coronavirus in China. Stock markets initially continued their record-breaking run in February until reports that

northern Italy had also been hit by the virus caused an abrupt shift in the mood. In March, the equity markets suffered

the heaviest losses since the financial crisis.

Review of relevant categories

Government bond yields fell during the period under review, in some cases sharply. Only in Q4 was there an upward

move in yields, which was quickly snuffed out by the coronavirus crisis in the first quarter. The FTSE World Govern-

ment Bond Index gained around 3% during the period under review in CHF and over 6% in USD. Meanwhile, corporate

bonds delivered only a slightly positive return during the year in CHF, with credit spreads widening significantly in the

first quarter.

The biggest regional differences were in equities. Swiss equities were the best performers. The SPI Index was margin-

ally up by 0.7% at the end of the period under review. The biggest losers included emerging market equities (-13% in

local currency) and eurozone equities (-16% in local currency). US and Japanese equities were somewhere in the mid-

dle with falls of 7% and 9% respectively.

In terms of foreign currencies, the Swiss franc rose sharply in value against practically all major currencies during the

period under review. The British pound lost around 8.8% against the Swiss franc from the start of Q2 2019 to the end

of Q1 2020, the euro 5.3% and the US dollar 3.8%. The best performer against the Swiss franc was the Japanese yen,

which was down 0.3%.

Performance review

Over the period under review as a whole, the fund delivered a gross performance of -4.55%. This negative perfor-

mance was due to the first quarter of 2020, when the fund fell by 8.35%. The biggest negative contribution to perfor-

mance was from equities (around -2.5%). The second-biggest contributor to negative performance was forex, with a

fall of around 1.8% due to the strong Swiss franc. Bond positions made a small positive contribution to performance

overall. The contribution from other investments (commodities and alternative risk premiums) was slightly negative.

The proportion of equities fluctuated significantly during the period under review, driven by changing market risks.

They reached their highest level at the start of January at around 45%. At the end of March, they were still around

17%. A drastic reduction in equity exposure at the end of February and start of March following increased market vola-

tility helped to contain the losses.

as well as in most European countries, hit new record lows.

Review of relevant categories

Yields fell sharply in some cases during the period under review. The 10-year CHF swap rate fell from 0.04% to -0.59%

between the start of April and 19 August 2019.

The biggest regional differences were in equities. The best performers were Swiss equities. The Swiss Performance In-

dex delivered a strong performance of 5.5% during the period under review. The US equity markets also posted a posi-

tive performance, with a return of 2.8%. The biggest losers included emerging market equities (-5% in local currency),

which were affected by the trade war. Eurozone equities moved sideways (-0.2% in local currency).

In terms of foreign currencies, the Swiss franc rose sharply against most major currencies during the period under re-

view. The US dollar lost 1.7% and the euro 2.9% against the Swiss franc. The British pound was particularly hard hit

with a fall of 9%. Meanwhile, the Japanese yen was able to gain around 2.6% against the Swiss franc.

Performance review

Over the period under review as a whole, the fund delivered a gross performance of -1.6%. This negative performance

was mainly due to August, when the fund's performance was -4.2%.

Equity positions and foreign currencies made a negative contribution to performance during the period under review.

Bond positions made a positive contribution to performance overall. However, this did not fully make up for the nega-

tive contributions from equities and foreign currencies.

Market review

Last year was characterised by a synchronised global economic slowdown. The US was the last of the big economies to

succumb to this trend. Manufacturing in particular found itself in a worrying situation. The escalation of the trade war

between the US and China was undoubtedly one of the main reasons for this development. Both parties swapped fur-

ther threats and tariffs, although at least negotiations between the two countries carried on. The US Federal Reserve

cut the fed funds rate for the third time in October 2019. The ECB also put together another stimulus package, alt-

hough its effectiveness was increasingly called into question. In January 2020, the US and China reached a partial

agreement to settle the trade dispute, cutting the punitive tariffs on Chinese exports to the US for the first time since

the conflict began. The slowdown in manufacturing came to an end and survey results showed growing confidence.

However, this optimism was short-lived. The coronavirus outbreak spread rapidly in China in January 2020 and eco-

nomic activity more or less ground to a halt. The virus then spread from east to west and quickly turned into the

greatest challenge of the post-war period. Government measures to prevent the uncontrolled spread of coronavirus

brought entire industries and wider society to a standstill all over the world. Businesses and schools were shut, borders

closed and stay-at-home orders imposed on entire regions. This caused the global economy to shrink at an extraordi-

nary rate and more severely than during the 2008/2009 financial crisis.

Review of relevant categories

Crude oil prices moved sideways for most of last year, with the top of the range for Brent crude at around USD 75 per

barrel and the bottom of the range at around USD 55. Price movements were defined predominantly by production

cuts by OPEC+ states. Saudi Aramco floated on the stock market in December 2019 and Saudi Arabia's production cut-

backs led to an increase in crude oil prices. The coronavirus outbreak led to a slump in demand for crude oil in January

and February 2020, and prices started to fall. No agreement could be reached at the OPEC+ meeting at the start of

March. On the contrary, instead of reducing production, Saudia Arabia and Russia began to increase production and

trigger a price war. In addition to the demand shock, there was now also a supply shock, and crude oil prices plum-

meted. At the end of March, Brent crude oil stood at USD 22 per barrel.

Gold was the only commodity that performed well during the period under review, ending the period close to its high-

est levels. Uncertainty about global growth due to COVID-19 and the massive liquidity injections by central banks

hugely supported the gold price.

To begin with, the slowdown in industrial activity as a result of the trade war between the US and China led to a

downward trend in industrial metals. Then came COVID-19 and the virus resulted in industrial metals prices being very

close to cost limits.

Performance review

Since its inception and in 2019/2020, the fund has outperformed its benchmark, the Bloomberg Commodity ex-

Agriculture and Livestock Capped Index. The fund's exposure to the energy and precious metals segment provided

positive performance contributions, while the positions in the industrial metals segment were a drag on performance.

Market review

During the first few months of the period under review, the main focus was on the trade conflict between the US and

China. As the trade conflict intensified, economic leading indicators weakened further. Conditions in manufacturing in-

dustry, which was hardest hit by the tariffs, slumped to their weakest levels since the end of 2012. In order to counter

economic uncertainty, the US Fed signalled that it would cut interest rates if necessary. The European Central Bank

was also concerned about the weak economy and below-target inflation, and considered loosening monetary policy still

further.

Review of relevant categories

The fund did not have any relevant market risks during the period under review.

Performance review

The fund went into liquidation shortly before the period under review and had already eliminated market risks at the

start of the period under review. The final liquidation payment was on 5 April 2019.

* The subfund Swisscanto (LU) Alternative Risk Premia Fund was liquidated on 4 April 2019.

Notes on the annual report

as at 31 March 2020

Note 1: Financial Reports The fund reports are produced in accordance with the legal provisions and regulations governing undertakings for

collective investments applicable in Luxembourg.

Note 2: Main accounting policies

The total net assets are given in Swiss Francs (CHF) and correspond to the difference between the total assets of the

fund and the total liabilities of the fund. For purposes of this calculation, the net assets of each subfund, if they are

not denominated in CHF, are converted to CHF at the last known average exchange rates. This conversion was based

on the following rate at year-end:

1 CHF = 1.688650 AUD 1 CHF = 5.360535 BRL 1 CHF = 7.330993 CNY 1 CHF = 0.941935 EUR 1 CHF = 0.833532 GBP 1 CHF = 8.010867 HKD 1 CHF = 16,857.576250 IDR 1 CHF = 78.185793 INR 1 CHF = 111.575581 JPY 1 CHF = 1,258.876979 KRW 1 CHF = 24.246088 MXN 1 CHF = 52.565253 PHP 1 CHF = 10.239944 SEK 1 CHF = 1.471603 SGD 1 CHF = 31.255874 TWD 1 CHF = 1.033538 USD 1 CHF = 18.459002 ZAR

Subscriptions, redemptions and conversions are made based on an unknown net asset value.

Valuation principles:

a) Securities, derivatives and other investments that are listed on a stock market are valued at the last-known market prices. If these securities, derivatives and other investments are listed on several stock exchanges the last available price on the stock exchange that is the main market for this security is key.

For securities, derivatives and other investments for which trading on an exchange is minor and for which there is a second market between securities traders with market-based price formation, the management company may undertake the valuation of these securities, derivatives and other investments on the basis of these prices. Securities, derivatives and other investments which are not listed on an exchange, but are traded on another regulated market which is recognized, open to the public and functions in an orderly manner, are valued at the last known price on this market.

b) Securities and other investments that are not listed on an exchange or traded on a regulated market are valued at the last market price available. If this is not available, the valuation of the securities is undertaken by the management company as per the other criteria to be set by the board of directors and on the basis of the expected possible sale price, the value of which is to be invested with all due care and to the best of their knowledge.

c) Money market instruments which are not listed on an exchange, but are traded on another regulated market which is recognized, open to the public and functions in an orderly manner, may be valued as follows: Starting from the net purchase price, the valuation price of such investments is progressively adjusted to the redemption price, while keeping the investment yield constant. In the event of key changes to the market conditions, the valuation basis of the individual assessments is modified to the new market yield.

Notes on the annual report (continued)

as at 31 March 2020

Note 2: Main Accounting Policies (cont.)

d) Liquid assets, trustee funds and fixed-term deposits are valued on the basis of their nominal value plus accrued interest.

e) Units in UCITS and other UCIs are valued according to their last published net asset value. If no net asset value is available, but only acquisition and sale prices, the units of such UCITS and other UCIs may be valued at the mean value between such acquisition and sale prices. If no current prices are available, the valuation is carried out by the Management Company in accordance with other criteria to be specified by the Board of Directors and on the basis of the probable sale price which must be estimated with due care and in good faith.

f) Derivatives that are not traded on an exchange or any other regulated market are to be valued at the fair value that is appropriate after careful assessment, taking into account the overall circumstances.

g) For each subfund the assets that are denominated in a currency other than that of the subfund are converted to

the subfund’s currency at the prevailing mean rate. Forward contracts entered into to hedge currency risk are included in the conversion.

h) Dividends are posted on the “ex-dividend” date and interest is deferred daily.

i) The realised gains or losses resulting from the sale of securities will be calculated on the basis of the average purchase price.

j) Calculation of the net asset value The net asset value of the shares is calculated by the Management Company for each individual subfund as per the

fund contract and item 3.1 in the sales prospectus on every banking business day in Luxembourg.

k) Valuation of forward exchange contracts

Any unrealised gains or losses resulting from the valuation of open forward exchange contracts at the reporting date

are included in the statement of net assets and the income and expense statement.

l) Capital gains or losses from security transactions The realised gains or losses resulting from the sale of securities will be calculated on the basis of the average purchase

price.

m) Swinging Single Prices (SSP) The SSP method is used for all subfunds, but was not used for the Capital Protect subfund.

The SSP method is used for all subfunds. With the SSP method, the ancillary costs created by subscriptions and

redemptions for the purchase and sale of investments (price spreads, brokerage in line with market conditions,

commission, fiscal charges etc.) are taken into account in the calculation of the NAV. If, on a banking day, the total

subscriptions and redemptions of all unit classes of a subfund result in a net inflow or outflow, the net asset value of

the relevant subfund is increased or reduced. This amount is known as the “modified net asset value”. The adjustment

results in an increase in the net asset value if the net movements lead to a rise in the number of units in the relevant

subfund. It results in a decrease in the net asset value if the net movements cause a fall in the number of units.

The transaction costs incurred by subscriptions and redemptions on the trading day are paid by the investors who

commission these transactions.

Notes on the annual report (continued)

as at 31 March 2020

Note 2: Main Accounting Policies (cont.)

The surcharge on, or deduction from, the transaction costs incurred by subscriptions or redemptions is effected at a

flat rate and is based on an average value from a previous period of a maximum of one year.

The maximum adjustment is 2% of the net asset value of the subfund in question.

If the fund has been on the market for less than one year, depending on the fund’s special features this factor will be

determined so that a representative figure results.

As at 31 March 2020, Swinging Single Price values were recorded in the following subfunds:

Swisscanto (LU) Portfolio Equity Fund Sustainable Emerging Markets in other assets

Swisscanto (LU) Portfolio Fund Dynamic 0-50 in bank interest and other liabilities

Swisscanto (LU) Commodity Fund ex-Agriculture & Livestock in other assets

The amounts are reversed on the following day after the capital has been definitively booked.

Note 3: Subscription tax “Taxe d’abonnement”

In Luxembourg, the fund assets are subject to a quarterly “taxe d'abonnement” of 0.05% p.a. of the net assets for

unit classes offered to private investors (A, B and C), and of 0.01% p.a. of the net assets for unit classes offered to

institutional investors (D, G, J and N). The fund's income is not taxed in Luxembourg.

Pursuant to Article 175 (a) of the Law of 17 December 2010, the portion of net assets invested in UCITS that are

already subject to capital tax is exempt from this tax.

Note 4: Administrative commission The fund will be invoiced a fixed administrative commission for management and administration plus the distribution of fund units, to be paid to the Management Company. This commission will be paid monthly, based on the average net fund volume of the respective subfund. The flat-rate administrative commission comprises the two components of the flat-rate management fee (costs of asset management and sales) and the flat-rate administration fee (costs of management and administration).

As at 31 March 2020 the effective fixed administrative commission amounted to:

Note 5: Tax information for investors in the Federal Republic of Germany (in accordance with Section 5 of

the Investment Tax Act, para. 1, sentence 1, no. 1)

This information will be published in the Federal Gazette. It is also available on the Swisscanto website

(www.swisscanto.com). Investors should consult their own financial advisor for advice on any tax consequences that

could result from the acquisition, possession, transfer or disposal of units under the laws of the countries of which

they are nationals or in which they are resident or domiciled.

Note 6: Total Expense Ratio (TER)

The TER reported under “Statistics” in this report was calculated in accordance with the “Guidelines on the Calculation and Disclosure of TER and PTR” published by the Swiss Funds and Asset Management Association (SFAMA) on 16 May 2008. These Guidelines have been aligned with the revised Collective Investment Schemes Ordinance-FINMA. The amended TER Guidelines entered into force on 1 June 2015. It is no longer necessary to disclose the PTR in the annual report. The TER has been calculated for the last 12 months prior to the date of this report. Total Expense Ratio (TER) = (operating expenses / average net assets) x 100 The operating expenses include all of the fees and costs associated with the fund. The operating expenses do not include the ancillary costs that the fund incurred when buying and selling assets.

If a fund invests at least 10% of its net assets in other funds which publish a TER as defined in the Guidelines issued

by the Swiss Funds and Asset Management Association SFAMA on 16 May 2008, a combined (synthetic) TER for the

umbrella fund is calculated as at the reporting date of the annual report. This corresponds to the sum of the pro rata

TER of the individual target funds, weighted according to their share in the net assets of the fund as at the reporting

date, the effectively paid issue and redemption commissions of the target funds and the TER of the umbrella fund

minus the reimbursements of target funds received in the reporting period. The synthetic TER is calculated using the

information available at the time this document is prepared.

At the end of the fiscal year, the synthetic TER was not required, as the above conditions were not met.

Note 11: Securities lending transactions

In order to ensure efficient asset management, a subfund may, in accordance with the requirements of the applicable provisions, use securities lending techniques and instruments in accordance with Article 51, para. 2 of the UCITS Directive and Article 11 of Directive 2007/16/EC of 19 March 2007 (Eligible Assets Directive) to generate additional income. In securities lending transactions, the subfund acts as lender and lends the borrower a security for use during a limited time; the subfund receives a fee for this. Zürcher Kantonalbank is the only direct borrower (principal) and the only direct counterparty of the securities lending transactions. As an independent, public-law institution of the canton of Zurich, the bank enjoys an unlimited state guarantee. It is therefore subject to regulatory supervision by the Swiss supervisory authority (Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority - FINMA), which is considered by the CSSF as equivalent to the rules laid down under European Union law.

With effect as of 1 March 2020, we have removed the following subfunds from the securities lending programme: Swisscanto (LU) Portfolio Fund Dynamic 0-50.

Note 15: Subsequent events

The coronavirus has changed the outlook for the current 2020 financial year for Swisscanto Asset Management

International S.A. and thus also for the Swisscanto (LU) Fund, which it manages. The emergency organisation is

proving very effective. All critical and key roles are secured. Key management company staff for the Swisscanto (LU)

Fund are in a position to continue working without disruption. The presumably prolonged upheaval on the financial

markets is likely to have a negative impact on performance. However, this cannot be quantified at the moment.

information applies both to the Management Company and the investment funds it manages, and relates to the entire

workforce.

2,030,326.96

of which is fixed: 1,409,669.89 of which is variable*: 620,657.07

* The basis of the variable remuneration paid out in March of each fiscal year relates to the previous year.

Due to the low number of employees and based on the principle of proportionality, no further breakdown of the

remuneration of identified employees will be provided.

The calculation of the remuneration and other benefits is based on prevailing market norms and the individual

performance of the employee. The fixed part of the remuneration relates to factors of long-term significance, such as

sustainable profitability, robust risk and capital management, first-class customer service and teamwork. The same

procedure applies for the variable part of the remuneration, which also encompasses factors such as the reward of

success and achievement, and the continued adherence to corporate governance guidelines. Furthermore, variable

remuneration depends to a significant extent on the income of the group as well as the management company and the

funds it manages.

Report by the Réviseur d'Entreprises agréé (cont.)

To the unitholders of Swisscanto (LU) Audit opinion

We have audited the annual financial statements of Swisscanto (LU) and its sub-funds (“the Fund”), comprising the

statement of net investment portfolio as at 31 March 2020, the income and expense statement and other changes in

net assets for the financial year ending on this date, as well as the notes with a summary of significant accounting

policies.

In our opinion, the accompanying annual financial statements, in compliance with the legal provisions and regulations

applicable in Luxembourg for the preparation of annual financial statements, give a true and fair view of the assets and

the financial position of the Fund and its subfunds as at 31 March 2020, as well as its income and its the development

of net assets for the financial year ending on this date.

Basis for our audit opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with the Law of 23 July 2016 concerning the audit profession and according to

the International Standards on Auditing (ISA) adopted by the Commission de Surveillance du Secteur Financier

(“CSSF”) for Luxembourg. Our responsibilities under the Law of 23 July 2016 and the ISA standards are set out at

greater length in the section “Responsibility of the Réviseur d’Entreprises agréé for the audit of the annual financial

statements.” We are independent of the Fund in accordance with the International Ethics Standards Board for

Accountants’ Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (IESBA Code) adopted by the CSSF for Luxembourg together

with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in

accordance with these requirements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Other information

The Management Company’s Board of Directors is responsible for other information. Other information includes

information contained in the annual report, but does not include the annual financial statements or our Report by the

Réviseur d’Entreprises agréé on the annual financial statements.

Our audit opinion on the annual financial statements does not cover other information and we do not give any kind of guarantee concerning this information.

In connection with our audit of the annual financial statements, it is our responsibility to read the other information

and thereby assess whether there is any material discrepancy between this information and the annual financial

statements or with the findings of our audit, or whether the other information appears to contain material

misstatements. If, on the basis of our work, we conclude that other information contains material misstatements, we

are obliged to report this. We have nothing to report in this respect.

Report by the Réviseur d'Entreprises agréé (cont.)

Responsibility of the Management Company’s Board of Director for the annual accounts

The Management Company’s Board of Directors is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the annual

financial statements in accordance with the legal provisions and regulations applicable in Luxembourg for the

preparation of annual financial statements and in respect of internal controls which the Management Company’s Board

of Directors deems necessary to enable the preparation of annual financial statements which are free from material

misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the annual financial statements, the Management Company’s Board of Directors is responsible for

assessing the Fund’s and each of its Subfunds’ ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters

relating to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the Management Company’s Board of

Directors either intends to liquidate the Fund or one of its subfunds or to cease operations, or has no realistic

alternative but to do so.

Responsibility of the Réviseur d’Entreprises agréé for the audit of the annual financial statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the annual financial statements as a whole are free

from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue a Report by the Réviseur d'Entreprises agréé

that contains our audit opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit

in accordance with the Law of 23 July 2016 and pursuant to the ISAs as adopted by the CSSF for Luxembourg will

always detect a material misstatement or non-compliance when it exists. These can arise from fraud or error and are

considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic

decisions of users taken on the basis of these annual financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with the Law of 23 July 2016 and pursuant to the ISAs as adopted by the CSSF for

Luxembourg, we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional scepticism. We also:

- Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the annual financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

- Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund’s internal control.

- Evaluate the appropriateness of the accounting policies used by the Management Company’s Board of Directors, and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures.

- Conclude on the appropriateness of the use of the going concern basis of accounting by the Management Company’s Board of Directors and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or circumstances that may cast significant doubt on the ability of the Fund or one of its subfunds to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in the Report by the Réviseur d'Entreprises agréé to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of the report by the Réviseur d'Entreprises agréé. However, future events or conditions may cause the Fund or one of its Subfunds (with the exception of Subfunds for which it is decided or intended to liquidted) to cease to continue as a going concern.

- Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the annual financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether they represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

Report by the Réviseur d'Entreprises agréé (cont.)

- With regard to Subfunds for which it is decided or intended to liquidate, we assess the appropriateness of the application of the going concern principle by the Board of Directors of the Management Company. We also assess the appropriateness of the disclosures describing the application of the going concern principle and the reasons for its application. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of the report by the Réviseur d'Entreprises agréé.

We communicate with those charged with the management regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and

timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we

identify during our audit.
