THE APOLLO ENHANCED ABSOLUTE RETURN FUND EURO B3
Redefining Absolute Returns
Fund Objective
The Apollo Enhanced Absolute Return Fund is a global multi asset fund seeking to gain enhanced exposure to a managed basket of absolute return strategies via structured investments. This basket will be managed by the investment manager according to various investment targets that will be selected. The fund itself will not leveraged and will not borrow. The absolute return strategies provide underlying
exposure to equities, bonds, commodities, alternatives and currencies. The Structured notes will provide a defined return of up to four
times the performance return of the managed basket of absolute return funds. The structured notes will always be collateralised, enabling
the investment Director to manage the credit risk of the respective note issuer. The Fund is designed to achieve long terms capital appreciation, whilst reducing the severity of negative returns over an investment cycle of 3-5 years. Performance can be compared to a
combination of 50% MSCI World Index and 50% Citi World Global Bond Index.

Fund Factsheet– May 2015
THE APOLLO ENHANCED ABSOLUTE RETURN FUND EURO B3
Portfolio Activity
Global equity markets steadily moved upwards through May with the US again hitting record highs. Japan led the way as investor confidence continued to build around economic stimulus which in turn weakened the Yen, leading to a boost for exporters. In the UK, a surprise
victory for the Conservative Party saw equities rally with investors getting comfort from a majority government, however weaker economic
news served as a reality check later in the month.
Across the US, a raft of data releases painted a mixed picture with Q1 GDP numbers being revised sharply downwards. However, new
home sales and consumer confidence both picked up leading commentators to suggest that GDP was likely to bounce back strongly in
Q2. In Europe, the month was again dominated by Greece with discussions continuing around terms of the bailout, however, with no sign
of a solution, Europe equities were a little volatile. In China, the market gave back a little of its spectacular gains, particularly at the end of
the month where a tightening of margin financing rules saw sharp falls in equities.
During the month, the Apollo Structured Opportunities Fund increased by 1.90%. With positive equity markets, the Equity Long / Short
allocation was the strongest performer as managers capitalised on the upward trend. The Equity Market Neutral position was also able to
profit from this movement in equity markets. The Macro allocation was also positive over the month while the Absolute Return Bond position was marginally negative amid a difficult environment for fixed interest.
Our position remains unchanged from last month in that we remain prudent in the face of high valuations across equity markets and volatile bond yields. Data throughout June will help set interest rate expectations on the US and this has the potential to derail markets as
does the Greek crisis which could well come to a head during the month given the scale of debt repayments required through the month.
