* Portfolio weights arecalculated on the entire portfolio, including cash holdings.

** Indexweights are for the MSCI Golden Dragon Index.


Data Source: Thisinformation is calculated by First State using the Barra Enterprise Performancesystem. Index information is provided by RIMES in GBP. Statistics have been calculatedon an annualised three year basis.  Thebenchmark used in calculations is the MSCI Golden Dragon Index.

Definitions:

Beta is a measure ofvolatility relative to the market. A beta of 1 would indicate that the fundtends to move in line with the market;  abeta of 0.84 indicates that the fund has been less volatile than the market onan annualised basis over the last three years.

The information ratiois a fund's excess return divided by its tracking error.  It is designed to assess a portfolio'sperformance relative to its level of benchmark risk; the higher a fund'sinformation ratio, the more excess return it generates for each additional unitof tracking error.

Standard deviationmeasures how much the returns of a fund or index vary, relative to thearithmetical average.  The higher afund's standard deviation, the more its returns tend to deviatefrom the mean.

Tracking error is thestandard deviation of the difference between a fund's returns and those of itsindex; the higher a fund's tracking error, the more its performance relativeto the benchmark tends to vary.

Turnover is a measureof a fund’s trading activity. It represents the percentage of a fund’s assetsthat has changed over the course of a given time period (typically a year)through buying and selling. The turnover ratio is calculated by dividing thelesser of the value of purchases and sales by the average market value ofassets during the period.
