WHY NOW

As many of you know:

• Global fund management market is growing 7% annually to USD15 trillion in 2012
• Asia sees the strongest growth. Particularly in China, economic growth will lead to annual growth of up 14% in asset under management between now and 2015
• However, fund managers are looking at performance attribution and risk management more carefully because of

• Increased volatility in the global market
• Increased scrutiny from regulators and investors on risks and returns of investments
• Increasingly complex assets being invested in, especially with alternative assets becoming more popular in Asia
