Fund Know-How
Fund Know-How keeps you updated with the insights and rationale behind changes to STANLIB
Multi-Manager Funds.
The investment world is never static. Your investment is subjected to a huge range of changes every
day, changes that can impact your investment. STANLIB Multi-Manager is committed to constantly
monitoring changes and taking decisive, reasoned actions to ensure your investment remains
focused on your needs.
STANLIB Multi-Manager African Bank exposure
As per the SARB directive, senior debt of African Bank (ABIL) was written down by 10%, whilst the sub-ordinated debt was written down
to zero on 11 August 2014. Fortunately our funds only had around 0.8% exposure to ABIL debt, which has been placed in a “side pocket”
portfolio or retention fund, for the future benefit of existing investors. These investors were credited with units in the retention fund.
Whilst the ABIL debt remains suspended, pending resolution with the curator, the units of the retention fund cannot be traded. Units of
the main Fund however, remain tradable. It is our belief that the retention fund units have a value which investors will ultimately be able to
extract following a successful resolution of the curatorship process. We will keep you informed of developments in this regard.
STANLIB Multi-Manager Real Return Fund
The Fund was reclassified from the ASISA Multi-Asset Flexible sector into the more peer relevant ASISA Multi-Asset Medium Equity sector
on 1 August 2014. The past performance history of the Fund was retained.
In line with the reclassification, we are in the process of formulating a more aggressive portfolio construction framework and are reviewing
the Fund accordingly.
STANLIB Multi-Manager Global Equity Feeder Fund
Hosking & Co has been included in the Fund at the expense of Marathon who has been one of the biggest laggards this year. The first
month with Hosking starts on 1 October 2014.

In addition to the change in index, we are introducing Grindrod Asset Management into the Fund. We are excited about this change. We
rate the team at Grindrod highly and feel that their philosophy, process and portfolio are aligned to what we were looking for in our overall
Fund. These changes are currently in the process of being implemented and will reflect on the October factsheets.
