Portfolio thoughts – high yield pricing in decent downturn in economic growth

Source: Bloomberg, JP Morgan as at 16.03.12. The above commentary represents the views of the Fund Manager at the time of the presentation and may be subject to change in the future, particularly during periods of rapidly changing market circumstances.

High yield still pricing

in a slowdown

Geographic exposure still

important here. Top down

macro fundamentals for

much of Europe still poor

Subordination continues

to be important. Still have

preference for secured

debt but parts of this

market now look rich

Jupiter’s convertibles and multi asset team

Fund Manager:

Lee Manzi

Jupiter Asset Management Ltd.

Lee started his fund management career at JP Morgan Asset Management (formerly

Flemings) in 1998, working in the fixed income team. After spells working on the European

fixed income team and UK desk, he took over the management of the firm’s UK Sterling

accounts before joining the Global Portfolios Group in 2001 where he managed the fixed

income portion of the balanced funds

He then worked in the Global Multi Asset Group with Miles, focusing primarily on fixed

interest and convertibles

In 2006 he moved to MPC / RWC to work with Miles as a portfolio manager

In the 13 years prior to his appointment Miles built and managed global convertibles, fixed

income and multi asset franchises. In 2009, he was recognised in the Sauren Awards with

three gold medals in the convertibles category, two gold medals in the absolute return

category and two gold medals in the multi strategy international category

Having spent much of his early career managing derivative teams in the Far East, Miles

became an adviser on fixed income portfolio management and foreign exchange to the

Central Bank of Botswana in 1994. In 1997 he joined JP Morgan Asset Management

(formerly Jardine Fleming) in Hong Kong and became Head of Fixed Income, Currencies,

Convertibles and Balanced

In 2004 Miles moved to London and became Chief Investment Officer and Head of the

Global Multi Asset Group and Global Strategy Team at JP Morgan Asset Management. In

addition to building the convertibles business, he also built and managed the JPM Capital

Preservation Fund, a global multi asset absolute return fund. Miles left JP Morgan in 2006

to join RWC Partners (previously MPC Investors), where he founded and headed the multi

asset and convertibles team

This presentation is intended for investment professionals and not for the benefit of private retail

investors. However any one attending the presentation or who has the opportunity to view the

accompanying slides should bear in mind that the value of an investment in a unit trust and the

income from it can go down as well as up. It may be affected by exchange rate variations and you

may not get back the amount invested. Initial charges are likely to have a greater proportionate effect

on returns if investments are liquidated in the shorter term. Quoted yields are not guaranteed.

Current tax levels and reliefs will depend on the nature of the holding and details are contained in the

key features documents. Past performance should not be seen as a guide to future performance.

A significant proportion of the portfolio may be held in higher yielding bonds. These have an

increased risk of capital erosion due to a higher possibility of default by the bond issuer. Changing

market conditions and interest rate levels can also have a larger impact on the values of high yielding

bonds than on other bonds. Due to the overall structure of the portfolio, the level of quarterly income

payments will not be constant and will fluctuate. Quoted yields are not guaranteed.

For your security we may record or randomly monitor all telephone calls. If you are unsure of the

suitability of an investment please contact your financial advisor. Any data or views given should not

be construed as investment advice. Every effort is made to ensure the accuracy of the information

but no assurance or warranties are given.
