Presentation by Henderson Global Investors and iShares - Blackrock (Singapore) Limited on 28 January 2012

UOB Kay Hian cordially invites you to a presentation by Henderson Global Investors and iShares - Blackrock (Singapore) Limited on 28 January 2012.

Henderson Global Investors: "Opportunities in the Asia-Pacific Properties Market"
Whilst 2011 was a challenging year for equities, Henderson sees 2012 as continuing this theme with concerns on the global macro environment continuing to take centre stage. Focus will undoubtedly remain on the ongoing European debt crisis and its implications for a slowdown in global economic growth. Equity markets have already priced some of these implications into current valuations and Henderson would caution on being too negative. In light of these headwinds, and in response to them, Henderson would anticipate a loosening of monetary and fiscal policy. The encouraging aspects for Asian markets are that inflation is trending downwards, and that policy tools exist to tackle any further economic slowdown. Amongst this backdrop of continuing uncertainty, the characteristics of real estate equities remain firmly in place, offering exposure to the long term growth prospects of the region as well as a stable income stream and dividend yield.

iShares: "Welcome to New Thinking in Fixed-Income"
iShares will provide an overview of the Global ETF Landscape. Participants will also get a perspective of why Fixed Income is an important asset class as well as the benefits of Fixed Income ETFs. In addition, iShares will present an overview of Asia High Yield Market and conclude by sharing with investors the iShares' suite of Fixed Income ETFs. These ETFs allow investors to invest in bond markets at varying levels of risk adjusted return.
