NOTES
ON LATIN AMERICA (SMALL CAP) COMPOSITE (Figures
are based on most recent estimates)
1. The Latin America (Small Cap) composite is a specialized strategy that focuses on equity and equity related securities of small capitalization companies traded in the security markets of Latin America and the Caribbean Region. The composite was created on December 1, 1994.
2. The composite is presented net of withholding taxes for applicable countries. For this composite, the MSCI Emerging Markets Latin America Small Cap Index is reported net of withholding taxes at rates that are applicable to non-residents for each respective country within the index. The FTSE Small Cap All Emerging Latin America Index is reported gross of withholding taxes. The MSCI Latin America Custom Index is reported gross of withholding taxes. The assumed withholding tax rate for the composite (asset weighted) is approximately 3% for a U.S. investor.
3. Composite results for the full historical period are time-weighted and include reinvestment of dividends and capital gains. Results for the single investment fund included in the composite were calculated monthly and linked geometrically. Management fees are accrued monthly and included in the fund's net asset value calculation. Gross of fees returns for investment funds are obtained by adding back the fee for each month. The composite is asset-weighted by beginning of month asset values. The composite returns are net of brokerage and other administration fees.
4. As of the date of this report, approximately 2.9% of the composite was invested in countries outside of this composite's benchmark.
5. The benchmark of this composite is the MSCI Emerging Markets Latin America Small Cap Index; prior to February 2008, the FTSE Small Cap All Emerging Latin America Index; prior to April 2006, the benchmark was MSCI Latin America Custom Index; prior to April 2004, the benchmark was the IFC Global Latin America composite. The benchmark change(s) were made in each instance because EMM believed that the new benchmark represented a more accurate reflection of the composite's investable universe versus the then-existing benchmark.
6. The benchmark return for 2004 is the blended return of the IFCG Latin America Composite Index through March 2004 and the MSCI Latin America Custom Index beginning in April 2004. The year-to-date benchmark return for 2006 is the blended return of the MSCI Latin America Custom Index through March 2006 and the FTSE Small Cap All Emerging Latin America Index. beginning in April 2006.
7. N/A - Information is not statistically meaningful due to an insufficient number of portfolios in the composite for the entire year.
8. Total Return information referenced above (both “gross” and “net” of investment management fees) are calculated after deducting applicable administrative and operating expenses, such as custodian fees and/or trading expenses.
