What is NAV?
Net asset value or NAV is a term used to describe the value of an entity's assets less than the value of its liabilities. For a mutual fund, the net assets value purchased usually represents the fund's market price.
Our funds are on a forward pricing policy. The funds' NAV for the trade date would be available on the next business day. For example, the fund's NAV on 2 July 2007 will only be available on 3 July 2007

What are the differences between Share Classes A and B and what are the applicable charges?
Class A shares typically charge a front-end sales charge. When you buy Class A shares with a front-end sales charge, a portion of the dollars you pay is not invested but will be paid as commission to distributors. The balance of the amount invested after the deduction of the front-end charge will be applied to the purchase of shares in the relevant fund.
| Sales Charge |
5% for all funds |

| Contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) |

None |
| Switching charges |
1% |
1% or minimum SGD50 for SGD share class
1% or minimum USD25 for USD share class |
Class B shares typically do not charge a front-end sales charge at the time of purchase. All of your dollars would be immediately invested. Class B shares normally impose a contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC), which you pay when you sell your shares. The CDSC normally declines and eventually is eliminated the longer you hold your shares.
