The differentiation in the rating categories is based on a quantitative factors and Standard & Poor'squalitative assessment of the investment process and management. AAA: the fund demonstrates an extremely strong ability to adhere to consistent investment processes and provides above average volatility adjusted returns relative to funds with similar objectives. AA: the fund demonstrates a very strong ability to adhere to consistent investment processes and provides above average volatility adjusted returns relative to funds with similar objectives. A: the fund demonstrates a high standard of quality in its sector based on its investment processes and management consistency of performance as compared with fundssimilar objectives. Standard & Poor's Star Ranking The Standard & Poor's Micropal Star Ranking assists investors in evaluating the performance of a fund and the consistency of that performance relative to other funds in the sector. It is calculated using a fund's monthly performance relative to its sector average for each of the 36 months over the three years to date. The average volatility of these 36 numbers is used to calculate a fund's star rating TOP 10% TOP 11-30% TOP 31-50% NEXT 25% BOTTOM 25% Morningstar Rating The Morningstar Ratings is an objective measure for how well a fund has performed on a risk-adjusted base compared to other funds with a similar investment objective. To begin the calculation process we divide mutual funds into categories. For each and every fund we calculate a score based on return (after loads) versus risk. Only funds with at least three years of performance history are given ratings. The Star Rating is best used as a starting point in the fund selection process. Funds with 4- and 5 star ratings have provided their investors with solid, risk-adjusted returns in the past.

Equity markets will maybe get more unstable due to these weaker prospects. In our opinion, corporate earnings will be a key variable in 2005, as they were in 2004. This time however, their weak growth will probably put a damper on equity returns. Since the end of 2001, corporate earnings have been picking up significantly throughout the world. The rise of corporate earnings was particularly remarkable in the United States. From mid-2003 to the third quarter of 2004, US earnings grew indeed more than 20% per quarter (year on year). This helped to support equity markets. The rise was so surprising that analysts had to scale up their forecasts as published earnings were systematically much higher than what they had expected. Since the first quarter of 2003, US corporate earnings have indeed been 5% higher than the forecasts of analysts, who had maybe erred on the side of caution after the difficult period of 2000-2001. Why have corporate earnings grown so much in the United States for the past three years? Theoretically, several elements have an impact on corporate profitability. On the one hand, the volume effect may contribute to earnings growth. This amounts to assessing the impact of macroeconomic growth on the profitability of business activities. On the other hand, the developments of the unit profit margin, i.e. the difference between the unit price and the unit costs, are also decisive in the quarterly variations. Exceptional strength The world economic context firmly improved after the significant slowdown in activity in 2000 and 2001. In the United States, corporate sales rocketed. They grew at an outstanding pace in the first quarter of 2004 (+9% year on year) after a drop in the third quarter of 2001 (-4% yoy). According to estimates, the higher volumes of activity thereby helped earnings to grow about 40 billion dollars in 2003. Yet the outstanding expansion of earnings in the past few years is not only attributable to the volume effect. It is also due to the growth of profit margins. Chart 1 shows the variations of the different variables determining profit margins. For clarity, we assume that the unit price is equal to 100. We thereby get a representation of the variations in the weight of the different components according to this price. We can see that unit costs, and especially labour costs, rose swiftly and hence squeezed profit margins as from the middle of the nineties. In order to make up for it, companies were forced to adjust their labour costs in 2001 in an extremely competitive global environment in which the possibilities of acting on prices were very small (lack of pricing power). Thanks to these drastic cost-cutting measures, corporate earnings picked up again and were further helped by highly accommodative financial conditions (rate and tax cuts). In 2004, companies continued to reinforce their margins as they regained pricing power (see chart 2).

In 2005, the pace of earnings growth will probably be closer to the long-term average (5% to 10% according to markets). Indeed, the global economic context will be less favourable than in 2004. Consequently, the volume effects will be less significant. In 2005, the income generated by job creation will have to be the main driver of economic growth in the major zones (United States, Japan and Euroland), but their recovery is still fragile. Non-wage costs will no longer decrease, as the drop of interest charges now belongs to the past. In 2005, central banks will probably start or continue their tightening cycle at a gradual pace in order to ensure satisfactory growth. Financial conditions will thus be less favourable and corporate spreads are now no longer likely to narrow. As far as wage costs are concerned, companies have little room to manoeuvre. Indeed, significant cuts in wages are not conceivable as it could jeopardise the recovery of consumption and hence harm the future profitability of companies. Yet companies will be anxious to keep their payroll in check in 2005, but they won't adjust it as drastically as they did in 2001. Eventually, the globalisation context leaves little if any room for companies to act on prices. In recovery phases, companies usually enjoy an increased price effect. The regained pricing power usually has a positive impact on corporate earnings expectations (see chart 2). The conviction of analysts about earnings prospects firms up as expected price rises increase. Yet, inflationary expectations will remain subdued in 2005, especially due to the high degree of competition.

In the current phase of the world business cycle, the earnings growth potential has become weaker. At this point in the cycle, analysts are usually more cautious in their earnings forecasts. In this regard, the work of the National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER) enables to break down the business cycle into four steps. During the starting phase (phase 1), analysts' expectations are strong as they expect growth to continue into phase 2 (advanced phase of growth). Then, in anticipation of a turnaround in activity (phase 3), they reduce their forecasts. Eventually, they gradually scale up their forecasts at the end of the economic slowdown phase (phase 4 2). Analysts try thus to anticipate the business cycle. …but partially anticipated The current economic environment corresponds to phase 2: industrial production is gradually slowing down, leading indicators are deteriorating, interest rates are picking up and the growth pace is still satisfactory, albeit less robust. On equity markets, analysts have adopted the hypothesis that growth would be subdued and conditions would be less favourable to companies (little hope that pricing power will recover and that costs will drop significantly). They have consequently scaled down their earnings forecasts to a more realistic level than a few months ago. According to the I/B/E/S consensus, analysts now expect earnings to grow 11% throughout the world in 2005 (against 14% in January 2004), 10% in the United States (against 15% in January 2004) and 15% in Euroland (against 15% in January 2004). There should be less downward revisions from now on. Yet we think that upward revisions are very unlikely given the lack of earnings drivers. A drop in commodity prices or a greater-than-expected pricing power are certainly the factors that are the most likely to generate positive surprises. As far as other determinants are concerned, we think that companies have little room to manoeuvre. Against such a backdrop, we think that earnings growth will hover between 8% and 10% worldwide. 1 The analysts' forecasts correspond to the ratios between the number of analysts who have scaled up their earnings forecasts and the number of those who have scaled them down during the past four weeks. For an empirical verification of the link between the economic cycle and the variations of earnings expectations, see Stock Returns and the Business Cycle M. Destefano, The Financial Review, Volume 39 N°4, November 2004. 2 Equities anyway In this context, everything leads us to believe that equity returns will be moderate, all the more since interest rates will gradually rise. In other words, according to the behaviour of the variables in the table below, the risk premium – i.e. the difference between the expected return of equities and the expected return of bonds – is thus narrowing. Furthermore, most market participants are convinced that growth will be modest. Given this consensus view, volatility has thus become abnormally low, leaving little room for extreme positions in the portfolios. Yet equities have not become unattractive for investors, since they are still expected to outperform the other types of assets in 2005. Despite the expected drop of earnings and the gradual rise of interest rates, they will remain relatively attractive as compared to bonds, whose prospects are harmed by the pressures on prices and the size of the deficits. Anyway this is what our valuation models indicate. Indeed, they still give a slight preference to equities, with a premium above the long-term average (3% in the United States). This type of technique, which was still relatively ineffective last year, will become decisive again in the tactical asset allocation process in 2005. Indeed, the correlation between equities and bonds is positive again (see chart 3). Since the early nineties, the correlation rate had actually tended to fall. The correlation even became negative in 2001-2003, in other words the performances of both types of assets were going opposite directions. The correlation rate between equity and bond performances is particularly sensitive to the macroeconomic environment, and especially the variations of inflationary expectations. Hence, correlation is typically negative when uncertainties are at their climax, like for instance during the short crisis in 1987 or during the Great Depression in the 30s (fear of a deflation). In such a context, it seems that investors attach the greatest importance to the cash flows offered by those two types of assets. Given the economic uncertainties and the ensuing increase of the equity risk, investors, who are anxious to maintain their cash-flows in the medium run, prefer the return prospects of bonds (flight to quality). Now that correlation is back to normal, our valuation models have regained their predictive power. For the time being, they indicate that equities are still relatively interesting. Besides, the equity risk premium is still a little more attractive in Euroland than in the United States, where the premium is in line with its long-term average.

As from the middle of the nineties (see chart 4), the globalisation on equity markets led to a similarity in the performances of the United States, Europe and the rest of the world (except Japan). As a result, the idea developed that regional allocation was no longer useful. Indeed, the regional segmentation of equity markets gave way in less than a decade under the impulse of the new economy, the desintermediation of financial markets and the strong economic integration process in Euroland. Yet, with the bursting of the bubble at the end of the decade, the links between the geographical zones slackened off for a while, especially in Euroland (see chart 4). The regional interdependence process seemed to have regained importance with the rebound on equity markets in 2003.

Indeed, after the bursting of the speculative bubble, the logic was very much sector-based : the performances of sectors became gradually less correlated to those of their local market (blue curb), proving that sectors were becoming less dependent on local conditions. Furthermore, the American and European indices increasingly tended to move in line with their global equivalent (green curb). Now with the uncertainties of the economic slowdown, sector rotation has become less important. The correlations between the performances of sectors and the performances of the local index have become much stronger. This leads us to believe that investors looking for earnings growth and return attach more importance to regional specificities in periods of economic slowdown. In this context, we see an interest in regional allocation again. Our preference goes to Euroland, who seems to be attractive in terms of valuations and whose consumption potential seems more important. Europe is less advanced than the United States in the economic cycle and its relative growth is stronger than in the US. Even though its future economic growth is very dependent on a recovery on the labour market, Euroland is currently catching up with the United States in terms of productivity gains and business capital spending. Consequently, European stock markets will probably continue to outperform the US in 2005.

First of all, these modest forecasts do not rule out the possibility of tactical moves within the portfolios in the course of the year, as markets will undoubtedly be more volatile than now (volatility has reached a lowest this year). These tactical moves can be achieved through stock picking because, despite the general downtrend in earnings, the situation will vary from one company to another. Those who will have the possibility to pay out a part of their profits to their shareholders will be in favour with investors. The distribution of a dividend is indeed considered as a proof that the company is healthy. Similarly, those who will still have some pricing power will be better perceived on the back of better earnings prospects. As a result, investors will eventually have to reconsider the mains lines of their investment policy if they want to get the same returns as in the past. This search for the optimal asset allocation, also called strategic allocation (i.e. considering the level of the investor's risk aversion, the length of his investment...) has however been sometimes disregarded in the heydays of stock markets as investors were trying to get the best returns without taking into account the related risk. After the good performances last year and early this year, investors must now be aware that they will have to take a little more risks if they want to get the same return as in the past five years. Chart 6 shows the risk/return ratios for our Sicav products as well as our five Sicav model3 portfolios ("secure", "moderated", "balanced", "active" and "dynamic"). A portfolio balanced between equities and bonds ("balanced" profile) is, for instance, likely to yield an annual return of 5.7%, with a risk of 9.3% per year. If the investor wants to get at least this return, he will have to take an additional risk and add more profitable and hence more risky products (upper right in chart 7) to his portfolio. But this change in strategy also implies a longer investment horizon. In a balanced portfolio, the investor can reduce the probability of a negative performance by 26% in the first year, to 2% in the second year and 0% in the fifth year. In a dynamic portfolio (fully invested in equities), the investment horizon must definitely be longer because the risk of a negative performance is respectively 35%, 11% and 2% in the first, third and fifth year. 3 Several types of Sicav portfolios are proposed to our clients according to their strategic profile (risk profile) : the secure portfolio is fully invested in bond products; the moderated portfolio is made of 25% equities and 75% bond products; the balanced portfolio is balanced between the two types of assets; the active portfolio is made of 75% equity products and 25% bond products ; finally, the dynamic portfolio is made of 100% equity Sicavs. Chart 6 – Risk and return of ING products and our model portfolios 13% ING (L) Invest New Technology Leaders 12% ING (L) Invest IT ING (L) Invest Nasdaq ING (L) Invest Computer Technologies ING (L) Invest European IT 11% 10% ING (L) Invest Latin America 9% ING (L) Renta Fund Emerging Debt Return 8% ING (L) Renta Fund Global High Yield 7% ING (L) Invest European Telecom ING (L) Invest Biotechnology Dynamic Balanced ING (L) Invest Greater China Active ING (L) ING (L) Invest Japanese Small & Mid Caps Invest Emerging Europe ING (L) Renta Fund 6% Eurocredit 5% ING (L) Invest Global High Dividend 4% Moderated Secure 3% 2% 1% 0% 5% 10% 15% 20% Renta Cash 25% Risico 30% Renta Fund 35% 40% Invest 45% 50% 55% 60% Modelportfolios Source : ING IM QUARTERLY REPORT Fourth Quarter 2004 SUMMARY 1. Review financial markets • The US economy continued to grow above trend, regaining traction following a weaker summer period. In Japan, domestic consumption maintained its upward momentum. Economic growth in the Eurozone was held back by slowing export growth and the rapid appreciation of the euro versus the US dollar. However, this seems to be a temporary phenomenon; • Global equity markets were indecisive in October. But sentiment subsequently turned more positive, due to lower oil prices, steady employment growth in the US and political certainty following the re-election of President Bush. The weaker US dollar and yen versus the euro limited the total return in global equities for Eurozone investors considerably; • Measured in euro, Eurozone equities showed the strongest regional performance, followed by the emerging markets. Underperformers were the US and Japan; • Total returns on the Eurozone fixed income markets declined considerably as a result of the stronger euro (and the ensuing reduction of growth forecasts). 2. Investment policy • Regional equity allocation: maintained overweights in Europe and Japan, underweight in the US and neutral stance in the emerging markets; • In your balanced portfolio (equities/fixed income), we raised equities (versus bonds) from neutral to slightly overweight at the beginning of December; • In your fixed income portfolio, we maintained a neutral duration position; • We maintained our neutral stance in corporate credits and we continued to overweight Asset Backed Securities (ABS), EMD Hard Currency, EMD Local Currency and High Yield; • Sectorial equity allocation: we added some cyclical accents on valuation grounds, but on balance we maintained a defensive stance in the portfolio). 3. Outlook • Following several quarters with favourable earnings reports, companies now face higher input costs (e.g. fuel, raw materials, wages). We express caution in our earnings forecasts, as most companies cannot pass these higher costs on to their clients; • In our cautious forecasts, we also discounted structural risks such as imbalances in the US economy, relatively high oil prices and (decreasing) uncertainties regarding the Chinese economy. Eurozone companies will have to lower their earnings forecasts due to the stronger euro. • We foresee modest upside potential for global equities in 2005. We continue to believe that companies with stable earnings growth and relatively secure dividend yields will offer the best chances for outperformance; • A beneficial circumstance is that the central banks will continue to pursue a loose monetary policy. The Federal Reserve will maintain its ‘measured’ pace of rate hikes towards normalised interest rate levels. In our base scenario, we expect the official Fed funds rate will stand at 3.50% (+125 basis points) by the end of 2005. Our base scenario does not assume any rate hike in the Eurozone before the second quarter of 2005 and expects the first tightening by the Bank of Japan in 2006. ECONOMY Summary The global economy continued to demonstrate decent levels of growth during the final quarter of 2004. Higher-thanexpected US growth counterbalanced a weaker picture in the Eurozone. Investors focused on the rapid decline of the dollar versus the euro. The risks of a Chinese hard landing decreased. For the coming months we forecast slightly weaker, but sustained global economic growth. As major risks we continue to highlight the imbalances in the US economy, currency movements, the direction of the oil price and the ‘China’ factor. Review After some weaker summer months, the US economy rebounded more strongly than expected. Growth returned to a level above the long-term trend. Consumer spending rebounded, helped by a pick-up in employment. It should be noted, however, that the imbalances in the economy continued to mount. The current account deficit, for example, reached an alltime high, while the savings ratio touched an all-time low. In the Eurozone, economic growth slowed to levels below the long-term trend. The rapid appreciation of the euro versus the dollar translated into downward revisions for export growth. Although the European Central Bank is still very hawkish about inflation risks, the higher euro has somewhat eased the upward pressure on inflation. The growth of the Japanese economy slowed, but the underlying picture was still relatively strong. For that matter, the economic data of the last few months have been distorted by a sequence of unusual weather conditions and natural disasters in Japan and therefore they are not very reliable. Export growth was stable, while the domestic conditions continued to improve. In this respect, consumer spending firmed and deflation continued to decline. Outlook The slowdown of US economic growth in 2004 is no cause for concern, as it succeeds the strongest period of growth of the last 20 years. However, the imbalances in the US economy will have to be corrected at some point in time. If employment – along with income growth – will continue to recover, this correction could be a gradual process. For 2005, we forecast the US economy will grow by over 3%. The recent slowdown of Eurozone economic growth was probably temporary. Given the slower-than-expected recovery of employment and the stronger euro we do not expect the Eurozone economy to grow above trend before mid-2005. The strong cyclical recovery in Japan offers the country a major opportunity to realise more sustained economic growth without deflation. We forecast an ongoing recovery of the labour market and of consumer confidence. However, there are still risks that Japan will revert to a situation of deflation Economic forecasts 2003 2004 E 2005 E 3.1 2.3 4.5 2.6 3.2 2.5 0.5 2.0 1.8 2.1 2.0 1.9 2.3 -0.2 4.3 0.0 2.4 0.5 United States Growth gross domestic product (%) Rate of inflation (%) Eurozone Growth gross domestic product (%) Rate of inflation (%) Japan Growth gross domestic product (%) Rate of inflation (%) Source: ING IM / January 2005 FIXED INCOME MARKETS Summary Against the background of resilient US economic growth and a slowdown in the Eurozone, the bond yields in the US and Europe decoupled. Long term bond yields edged up in the US, but declined in the Eurozone. The decline in the Eurozone was partly triggered by the rapid appreciation of the euro versus the dollar. Assuming a decent growth rate for the global economy in 2005, we anticipate slightly higher bond yields from the current levels. Review During the past quarter, the US 10-year bond yield rose by approximately 20 basis points. Favourable macro economic data were a key factor here. The Federal Reserve maintained its policy towards ‘normalised’ interest rates. In November and December, the Fed funds rate was raised by 25 basis points to 2.25%. Contrary to the bond yield movements in the US, Eurozone bond yields declined considerably in response to weaker economic data. The rapid appreciation of the euro triggered fresh doubts regarding the economic prospects, and these also depressed the long-term bond yield. Strikingly, this caused Eurozone bond yields to decouple from US bond yields, which had been highly correlated until the last quarter of 2004. The European Central Bank maintained a hawkish view regarding inflation risks and did not adjust interest rates. For that matter, inflation risks have diminished as a result of the stronger euro. The Bank of Japan maintained its loose monetary policy. The Japanese 10-year bond yield was on balance more or less unchanged compared to the start of the quarter. OUTLOOK FIXED INCOME MARKETS We envisage moderate economic growth for the United States. We expect that the economy can continue to grow at a decent pace, supported by lower oil prices, favourable financial conditions and improving domestic demand. We expect that the Federal Reserve will continue to raise interest rates by at least 125 basis points to 3.50% in 2005. From the current levels, we envisage slightly higher long-term bond yields. In 2005, we expect that economic growth in the Eurozone will gradually rebound following the current slowdown. The European Central Bank will maintain a hawkish view regarding inflation risks. We expect inflation to increase only modestly and therefore we do not envisage higher interest rates before the second quarter of 2005. We forecast short-term interest rates will be raised by a total 75 basis points to 2.75% by the end of 2005. We also anticipate slightly higher long-term bond yields here. Clearly the risks have diminished that the Japanese economy will revert to a phase of deflation. But these risks have not fully disappeared either. Therefore, we do not envisage higher interest rates in Japan before 2006. In Japan, we anticipate stable long-term bond yields for the short term. EQUITY MARKETS Summary Global equity markets hesitated in October. But sentiment subsequently turned more positive again, boosted by lower oil prices, decent employment growth in the US and political certainty following the re-election of US President Bush. Ample liquidity and mounting merger and acquisition activity were also supportive. The weaker US dollar and yen versus the euro limited the total return in global equities for Eurozone investors significantly. We maintained a defensive stance in the portfolios, while adding some cyclical accents on valuation grounds. In this respect, we raised our position in information technology. For 2005, we envisage limited (5-10%) upside potential for equities. We maintain our defensive stance and continue to favour companies with stable growth and above average dividend yields. THE REGIONAL FUNDS Review / Global market developments Global equity markets hesitated in October. But sentiment subsequently turned more positive again, boosted by lower oil prices, decent employment growth in the US and political certainty following the re-election of US President Bush. The upward trend was supported by ongoing loose monetary policy by the central banks, ample liquidity amongst investors and mounting merger and acquisition activity. The significant appreciation of the euro versus the US dollar and the yen limited the total return in global equities for Eurozone investors considerably. Global sectors Amongst the defensive sectors, telecom services and utilities outperformed. Amongst the cyclical and growth sectors, basic materials and information technology clearly outpaced the benchmark average. Health care and insurance were distinct laggards. In the health care sector, the side effects of medicines (e.g. from US Merck) triggered concerns about the quality of the pharmaceutical ‘pipeline’ (new medicines under development) of some pharmaceutical producers. Investors were also worried about the safety of medicines and about the fall-out from an avalanche of lawsuits. United States The market was indecisive in October, but subsequently sentiment improved due to factors mentioned before (lower oil prices, decent employment growth, political clarity following the re-election of US President Bush). The upward trend was supported by ample liquidities amongst investors. In addition, corporate America (which has significantly improved its balance sheet ratios in recent years) used its ample cash reserves to finance acquisitions, notably in the sectors information technology and telecom services. Leading indices like the Standard & Poor’s 500 and Nasdaq hit 3-1/2 year highs in December. Europe European equities maintained their upward trend, boosted by lower oil prices, favourable quarterly reports and lower bond yields. The positive sentiment was not dented by the stronger euro, which triggered profit warnings. Ample cash reserves amongst investors and mounting merger and acquisition activity also supported the upward trend. Japan Over the first half of the fiscal year (April to September), Japanese companies produced favourable corporate earnings reports in line with expectations. The only exception was the information technology sector. Nevertheless, Japan continued to lag, while being struck by earthquakes and typhoons. But the underperformance was not as severe as during the third quarter. Following very strong macro data during the first half of the calendar year, the market had to digest several less favourable numbers (e.g. industrial production) along with a stronger yen versus the dollar. Against this background, domestic investors (which still showed little appetite for equities) were not tempted to increase their holdings. Foreign investors continued to operate on the buy-side. Various confidence indicators showed the domestic economy continued to recover. As a consequence, local sectors like the financials clearly outperformed export related sectors. Developed Asia Pacific These equity markets developed favourably, boosted by a positive development of domestic demand and lower oil prices. Emerging markets The emerging markets continued their upward trend, benefiting from a more positive sentiment for global equities. In spite of relatively low valuations, Asia lagged on balance during the quarter. Taiwan, one of the most attractive regional markets in valuation terms, was unable to benefit from its upgrading in the global MSCI-index of emerging markets. Thailand suffered from political unrest in a southern region and several other markets (China, India) had to digest rate hikes. The best performers were the smaller markets of Indonesia and the Philippines. In the EMEA (Europe, Middle East and Africa) region, the ten Eastern European countries continued to benefit from their new status as member of the European Union (EU). The Turkish market clearly anticipated a formal EU approval allowing Turkey to negotiate its admission to the EU next year. After the approval had been received on 17 December, Turkish equities continued to rally, boosted by interest rate cuts. Russia lagged due to lower oil and gas prices and the gradual dismantlement of oil giant Yukos. Latin America continued to perform favourably, helped by high commodity prices and positive earnings developments in Brazil. OUTLOOK EQUITY MARKETS Following major cost programs, companies have produced historically elevated profits. However, the number of positive earnings surprises should gradually decline now, as companies will face higher input costs (e.g. labour, fuel and raw material costs) which they can not pass on (partly nor fully). For companies in the Eurozone, the stronger euro will trigger lower earnings forecasts. This all explains our caution regarding the earnings prospects for 2005. The risks regarding corporate earnings are counterbalanced by a number of positive factors. In this respect we highlight the moderate development of the global economy, the accommodative monetary policy by the central banks and low interest rates. In addition, supportive factors for sentiment include the ample liquidities amongst investors and companies. In recent months, these liquid assets have already triggered a growing (price boosting) merger and acquisition activity (M & A). We expect this trend to continue into 2005. On balance, we express cautious optimism regarding global equities, which we expect to produce an average total return in line with forecast earnings growth of 5-10% in 2005. Accordingly, we continue to favour companies with stable growth and attractive dividend yields. For US and European equities, we forecast an average 5-10% earnings growth for 2005. In Japan, the forecast earnings growth slowdown next year, triggered in part by slower export growth and the stronger yen versus the euro, has largely been discounted in the current prices. This should offer some upside potential now that domestic consumption is rebounding. For the fiscal year 2004/2005, we anticipate an average 20-25% earnings growth. For 2005/2006 we forecast earnings growth to decelerate to about 5%. Following the second-half rally, the emerging markets will face more difficulties maintaining the positive momentum, also because the anticipated slowdown of the global economy will translate into slower export growth. Nevertheless, the emerging markets still offer interesting investment opportunities in view its attractive valuations and ongoing strong domestic demand. ASSET ALLOCATION (equities / fixed income) Summary In October and November, we maintained our neutral stance regarding equities and fixed income. Early December, we decided to raise equities to a modest overweight versus fixed income as our models indicated that equities should outperform bonds. The concerns about the imbalances in the US economy (current account deficit, low savings ratio) mounted. In addition, US economic growth slowed down during the second half of the year. It should be noted, however, that this slowdown occurred at historically elevated levels and growth was maintained at fair levels. This is confirmed by the most recent data. In fact, the US economy seems to have regained impetus in December. Consumer spending and investments stabilised at high levels. Nevertheless, a slowdown of corporate earnings growth should be inevitable in 2005, due to higher wages and higher fuel and raw material costs. Companies cannot entirely pass on these costs to their clients. In the Eurozone, economic growth was slightly below trend during the third quarter. This was caused by a slowdown in exports and consumer spending. The stronger euro and weaker jobs market imply that a higher growth rate should not be expected in the first half of 2005. Nevertheless, we do expect the European economy to regain traction in the second half of 2005, boosted by accelerating domestic demand. Our decision to raise equities from neutral to slightly overweight at the start of December, should be seen in the following context. Early October, fundamental analysis produced a neutral signal for equities, but this signal turned to positive in the subsequent months. In December, a number of market analyses also turned positive. The price momentum analysis entered positive territory early November, while the earnings valuation analysis has produced a positive signal during the entire quarter. The bond yield momentum, another market analysis, produced a negative signal during the quarter. In view of our analyses and given the diminishing uncertainties in the market (in response to lower oil prices, re-election President Bush, signs of soft landing in China), we decided to raise equities to a modest overweight at the start of December. Our analyses indicate that equities should outperform bonds in the coming months.

The asset allocation policy combines valuation and technical prospects of assets. The sub-fund does not hedge the currency risk and is therefore exposed to the Euro currency. The sub-fund's benchmark is a combination of 50% MSCI EMU and 50% Lehman Brothers Euro Aggregate Index.

The ratio equity/fixed income is monitored closely and optimized continuously. The basic objective is to maximize equity exposure, while trying to maintain on a daily basis 90% of the net asset value through an optimal allocation between equities and fixed income securities and by using derivative contracts such as Over the Counter options. The protection level is 90% of the highest published NAV. The protection level will be increased if there is an increase in the NAV above the previous high and left intact otherwise. No formal guarantee is given to the investors whether the objective will be realised although all relevant measures of protection will be taken. Besides equity and bonds, the sub-fund may hold Certificates of Deposit, Commercial Paper and other money market instruments. The sub-fund may also hold cash. No benchmark is defined.

It is indicative of the ability of the fund manager to outperform the fund's benchmark, taking the market risk into account. The more positive the better. Benchmark The benchmark of a fund is its main investment yardstick. It is mostly a well-known market index, a combination of indexes or an in-house index, if no appropriate index is available. Comparing the performance and the risk indicators of a fund relative to its benchmark offers a way to assess the quality of the fund management. Beta The Beta of a fund indicates its sensitivity to fluctuations of the benchmark. A Beta higher than 1 (lower than 1) indicates that the fund tends to gain (lose) x% percent when the benchmark gains (loses) 1%. Hence, the Beta is a measure of risk: a figure far above 1 reflects a strong sensitivity to market fluctuations. Duration The duration of a bond portfolio can be defined as the average life of the bonds in the portfolio weighted by the present value of all future cash flows from the bonds. The longer the duration, the stronger the sensitivity of the portfolio to interest rate changes. Here, the displayed duration is in fact the Modified Duration, i.e. the duration divided by the bond yield. Information ratio (annualised) The information ratio measures the average excess performance (relative to the benchmark) of a fund adjusted for relative risk. In technical terms, it is the ratio of the average excess performance over the tracking error. Micropal Average The Micropal Average measures the average performance of all funds registered for sale in the fund category defined by Micropal. Comparing a fund to its Micropal average enables investors to identify the funds outscoring or underscoring the average performance of all funds present in this category. Standard & Poor’s Ranking The Standard & Poor's Micropal Ranking is calculated using a fund's monthly performance relative to its sector average for each of the 36 months over the 3 years to date. The average and volatility of these 36 numbers are used to calculate a fund's star ranking. 5 stars mean top 10%, 4 stars mean top 11-30%, 3 stars mean top 31-50%, 2 stars mean Next 25% and 1 star means bottom 25%. Morning Star Ranking The Morningstar Ratings is an objective measure for how well a fund has performed on a risk-adjusted base compared to other funds with a similar investment objective. To begin the calculation process we divide mutual funds into categories. For each and every fund we calculate a score based on return (after loads) versus risk. Only funds with at least three years of performance history are given ratings. The Star Rating is best used as a starting point in the fund selection process. Funds with 4- and 5 star ratings have provided their investors with solid, risk-adjusted returns in the past. Performance (annualised) The performance of a fund (also known as return) shows the percentage change of the net asset value of the fund between two dates. The performance is an important indicator of quality of the fund management, but by no means the only one. Its major drawback lies in the fact that it does not take risk into account. R-Squared R-Squared measures the degree of correlation between a fund and its benchmark. It calculates the proportion of the fluctuations of the net asset value of the fund that can be attributed to fluctuations of the benchmark. A value of 1 means that the fund is perfectly correlated with the benchmark. Sharpe Ratio (annualised) The Sharpe Ratio of a fund is a measure of risk-adjusted performance, as it can be defined as the ratio of average excess return over the volatility of the return series. The higher this ratio, the better the risk adjusted performance. It is an absolute performance indicator, implying that it does not require the definition of a benchmark. Tracking Error (annualised) The Tracking Error is a measure of relative risk. It calculates the standard deviation of the relative performance, i.e. the ratio between the performance of the fund and the performance of its benchmark. In other words, the tracking error shows to what extent the fund is actively managed. Volatility (annualised) The (annual) volatility of a fund is the most common measure of its risk. It measures the annual standard deviation of the successive returns of this fund. A high volatility indicates a high risk. Yield The yield of a fixed income asset shows the annual cash flows from this asset as a percentage of the market price. For bond funds, the yield is usually calculated as the average duration-weighted yield, in order to take into account the differences in duration of each individual bond.
