Comment
In the six months to June 30th, 2005, the Funds Net Asset Value per share fell
4.6% to US$37.19 (based upon previous accounting standards). Over the same
period the Kuala Lumpur Stock Exchange (KLSE) index expressed in US Dollars fell
2.1%. The total deficit per Participating Preference Share was US$1.971 and the
Directors do not recommend payment of a dividend.
Malaysias smaller market capitalisation stocks have performed poorly for over a
year now, and have been de-rated compared with their larger counterparts.
Indeed, the KLSE Second Board of smaller companies reached a seven-year low
recently while in early August the broader index made a five-year high (albeit
under-performing its neighbours). Although disappointing, your Manager continues
to believe that the small and medium size companies, in which you Fund is
primarily invested, continue to have good prospects for growth which will be
recognised by the stock market.
UK Accounting Standards (UK GAAP) have changed in anticipation of UK companies
moving to International Financial Reporting Standards. The main alteration
affecting the Fund is the reclassification of the Funds Participating
Preference Shares as debt rather than equity. Further changes involving the
valuation of investments at bid price rather than mid-market price and the
inclusion of transaction costs have also been incorporated.
