        The ABF Pan Asia Bond Index Fund (the 'PAIF') is an authorized unit trust in Hong Kong and Singapore only. Authorization does not imply official recommendation. Nothing contained here constitutes investment advice or should be relied on as such. Past performance of PAIF is not necessarily indicative of its future performance. The prospectus for PAIF is available and may be obtained from State Street Global Advisors Singapore Limited (the "Manager") (Singapore Company Registration number: 200002719D, regulated by the MAS) and authorized participants. Investors should read the prospectus before deciding whether to acquire units in PAIF. The value of units in PAIF and accruing to such units, if any, may fall or rise. The semi-annual distributions are dependent on PAIF's performance and are not guaranteed. Redemption of PAIF’s units could only be executed in substantial size through designated dealers and the listing of PAIF on the Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited and the Tokyo Stock Exchange (the 'Stock Exchanges') do not guarantee a liquid market for the units, and PAIF may be delisted from the Stock Exchanges. The Fund's Prospectus is available from State Street Global Advisors or can be downloaded from www.abf-paif.com*.

        All forms of investments carry risks, including the risk of losing all of the invested amount. Such activities may not be suitable for everyone.

        The information provided does not constitute investment advice and it should not be relied on as such. It should not be considered a solicitation to buy or an offer to sell a security. It does not take into account any investor's particular investment objectives, strategies, tax status or investment horizon. You should consult your tax and financial advisor. All material has been obtained from sources believed to be reliable. There is no representation or warranty as to the accuracy of the information and State Street shall have no liability for decisions based on such information.

        Bonds generally present less short-term risk and volatility than stocks, but contain interest rate risk (as interest rates rise, bond prices usually fall); issuer default risk; issuer credit risk; liquidity risk; and inflation risk. These effects are usually pronounced for longer-term securities. Any fixed income security sold or redeemed prior to maturity may be subject to a substantial gain or loss.

        Diversification does not ensure a profit or guarantee against loss.

        ETFs trade like stocks, are subject to investment risk, fluctuate in market value and may trade at prices above or below the ETFs net asset value. Brokerage commissions and ETF expenses will reduce returns. Frequent trading of ETF's could significantly increase commissions and other costs such that they may offset any savings from low fees or costs. 

        The investment objective of PAIF is to provide investment results that closely correspond to the performance of its benchmark index. The primary driver of investment decisions is the objective of generating returns to meet the investment objective. Climate change analysis does not form part of the security selection process and climate-related risk is not a factor applicable to PAIF being able to meet its investment objective.
