INVESTMENT PERFORMANCE

PERFORMANCE ANNUALISÉE POUR L’ENSEMBLE DES COMPTES CLIENTS DE Invest Sante SCA DURANT LA PÉRIODE 2015 À 2020 (EN EURO)*

*The historic data is no guarantee of future performance. The above-mentioned performance results are net results (after deduction of all fees but before tax) and refer to all client accounts of Invest Sante SCA the parent company of Invest Sante SCA is an independent company. However, it operates with the same expertise and methodology in the same investment universe.

METHODOLOGY

All client portfolios have been assigned to one of four categories according to their respective investment focus. Then, the performance of the four strategies was determined over the period 2015 to 2020, i.e. over 5 years. Performance has been calculated in euros on the basis of market prices after deduction of costs but before taxation. For the yield results, these are time and volume weighted values (for explanations see “Assumptions”)

MANAGEMENT ASSERTIONS

The performance values were determined on the basis of the following key assumptions:

  • The performance calculation was carried out in Euro on the basis of market prices after charges and before taxes.
  • The yield results correspond to volume-weighted values. Thus, the performance of a client portfolio with managed assets totalling 1 million Euro has twice as great an impact on the portfolio performance as a client portfolio with only 500,000 Euro under management.
  • The performance of the portfolios was calculated using a time-weighted methodology. Inflows and outflows from client portfolios were thus taken into account.
  • To allow time for the investment process, the performance was calculated for the quarter following the transfer of the assets. Such an approach is necessary since performance values concern actual realised values and not purely theoretical values.
  • The calculation of the portfolio performance encompasses all client accounts at Development and Financing Holding S.A in the respective category. Only around 1% of accounts were left out of the equation due to accounting reasons which would make accurately determining the performance unfeasible.
