*Investments in equities would be well diversified acrossvarious emerging sectors with exposure to a particularbusiness would be restricted to 25% of the total investmentportfolio under normal market conditions. For exampleexposure to stocks of companies belonging to thePharmaceutical sector may be capped at 25% of the totalinvestment portfolio. Exposure to a particular sector maybe however increased upto a maximum limit of 35% underexceptional circumstances at the discretion of the FundManager based on his assessment about the potential ofthat sector with the approval of the Investment Committee.In addition to the above restriction, this Fund shall notinvest more than 10% of its assets in equity shares orequity related instruments of any company and shall notinvest more than 5% of its assets in unlisted equity sharesor equity related instruments of companies.

The business areas listed in the highlights to this sub-fundare only indicative and investments may not be restrictedto the above areas only. Since the theme for this sub-fundis ‘emerging businesses’, the Fund Manager may in futurealso invest in other business areas which maybe consideredemergent with domestic focus and/or provide export/outsourcing opportunities and are globally competitive.

The Emerging Businesses Fund would primarily focus itsinvestments in emerging business themes, primarily basedon the export/outsourcing opportunities and/or globalcompetitiveness of such themes. It will also focus onemerging domestic investment themes. Over the last threeto four years a large number of companies have been ableto leverage the “low cost and high skill” advantage of Indiato make a strong foray into the global markets. This movestarted with companies in the IT and Pharma sectors wherecompanies like Infosys, Wipro, Ranbaxy etc have made astrong mark in the overseas markets and have establishedthe “India” brand name. Subsequently this brand name hasbeen well leveraged by other companies in these industriesand today we have a whole array of companies from theseindustries doing well in the overseas markets.

However the India advantage is not restricted to just thesesectors. Similar skills combined with the ability to take uphigh technology customized work for overseas clients hasmade a number of companies in industries like auto, autoancillaries, Agrochemicals, Engineering etc to make strongmoves overseas. This has resulted in a greater acceptanceof India as a destination of high quality work not only in theservices sector but also in manufacturing. Over the nextfew years there will be a number of other such emergingthemes. For example, with the phasing out of quotas Indiashare of the overall textiles trade is set to go up exponentiallyover the next few years. Jewellery exports are also anemerging opportunity for Indian companies operating inthis field. The advantage of a large domestic base combinedwith the recent initiatives on duty free import of raw materialshas brightened the prospects for this industry.

In the domestic arena, businesses which have actuallyemerged over the last three to four years have been in thegrowth areas of Telecom and Infrastructure. So in this

InvestmentStrategy

The primary investment strategy of the fund is to invest inthe stocks of small & midcap companies. A small portionwill be invested in large cap stocks and debt & moneymarket securities. Stocks will be selected on the basis ofbottom-up & top-down approach.

Basis for selection of approach:

The transition of the economy towards a free market/openeconomy, which began post the 1991 reforms, has continuedlargely unabated. This has been despite changing politicalstewardship and a volatile global macro.

India is poised for a higher economic growth on a sustainedbasis given the structural factors. There is a large investmentuniverse (over 5000 listed stocks) across various sectorsoffering ample opportunities for bottom up stock picking.

The changes that offers equity investor’s opportunities foractive alpha generation are:

• Changes in the pattern of consumption

• Rural consumption

• Consumption of financial services.

• Mechanism of providing government support

• Asset ownership

• Opportunities in outsourcing/exports

• Change in ownership patters

A high degree of efficiency probably exists in large partsof financial markets, but we believe, it is possible to identifymispriced opportunities due to the market’s structural andbehavioural tendencies, some of which are elaborated below:

• Time arbitrage

• Special situations

• Research arbitrage.

These opportunities/arbitrages are recognized at each stepof our investment process. Identification of marketopportunities is an output of our research process. Thescheme will look at following parameters to identify theseopportunities:

� Bottom-up

Business Model, Management quality, Valuations andLiquidity are the important ingredients in the bottom-upstock picking process.

• Business Model: The competitive edge of the business,its position vis-à-vis competition, impact of geo politicalissues, impact of policy (Local and Global), the scopeof business expansion.

• Management Quality: Management’s vision, executionability, ability to adapt the change, corporate governanceand transparency.

• Valuations: Fair value of the company, Return of capital,Growth, Relative value, current premium/discount,expectations.

• Liquidity: The scheme will have internal liquidity measureswhich will be considered by the fund manager beforemaking a buy decision.

� Top Down:

Top down views are essentially used to blend the macrounderstanding and analysis in bottom up stock-picking.Given the nature of economy and regulatory evolution,government policies and regulatory developments can havesignificant impact on certain sectors.

Some of the domestic variables that are actively trackedto form a top down view:

• Fiscal policy

• Macro indicators and industry data

• Government Policies and regulatory developments

• Monetary conditions and policy

The Top down approach helps us to effectively tilt theportfolio (Defensive, High Beta, Cyclicals etc).

The combination of the top down and bottom up approachwill help the fund manager to identify market opportunities/arbitrage.

The scheme follows a blend of growth and value style ofinvesting. The scheme will follow a bottom-up approach tostock-picking and choose companies within the small capspace. Small Cap: 251st company onwards in terms of fullmarket capitalization. The exposure will be as per limits/classification defined by AMFI/SEBI from time to time.

Please note that “The Board of Directors of Trustee Company and the Board of Directors of the AMC, after evaluating the marketconditions, may decide to limit/stop accepting fresh subscriptions in the Scheme till such time the market conditions change and canaccommodate further investments in the Scheme.”

The scheme will primarily invest in the securities constitutingthe underlying index. However, due to changes in underlyingindex the scheme may temporarily hold securities whichare not part of the index. For example, the portfolio mayhold securities not included in the respective underlyingindex as result of certain changes in the underlying indexsuch as such as reconstitution, addition, deletion etc. Thefund manager’s endeavour would be to rebalance the portfolioin order to mirror the index; however, there may be a shortperiod where the constituents of the portfolio may differfrom that of the underlying index.

These investments which fall outside the underlying indexas mentioned above shall be rebalanced within a period of30 days.

InvestmentStrategy

SBI Dynamic Asset Allocation Fund endeavors to meet theobjective of this fund mainly from asset allocation betweenasset classes. This approach will help reduce the risk oftracking the individual asset classes. Based on historicalobservation, these asset classes exhibit very differentrisk - return profile and a low correlation to each other. BothDebt and Equity tend to outperform each other on a relativerisk adjusted basis under different market conditions. Thefund strategy is based on the persistence of suchoutperformance over longer periods. The Scheme willallocate higher weight to the asset class that is relativelyfavourable under the prevailing market and economicconditions. The fund manager will aim for a superior riskadjusted returns over long time periods. The entire approachis rule based and involves a list of checklists and filters togenerate buy and sell signals. The key feature of thisapproach is its design to buy into weakness and to sell intostrength.

The optimal allocation between Equity, Debt and Cash willbe based on three principles:

• Momentum

• Rate of change in momentum

• Exhaustion of momentum

1. Momentum: The model assesses the relative strengthof momentum for each asset class by examining whethercurrent prices are above or below historical movingaverage prices for short and medium-term periods. Byusing a combination of moving averages for differentterms, we expect a higher stability and confidence inthe momentum indicator. The asset class that shows ahigher ratio between current price and the moving averageprice will get a higher weighting.

2. Rate of change: The model uses the rate of change inthe momentum of the underlying assets in addition tothe relative strength of the momentum to mitigate therisk of frequent changes in the signals. For an assetclass to be considered strongly trending higher not onlydoes the current price need to be above the movingaverages but also the rate of change for the movingaverages also need to be positive.

Strategylikely to persist and remain strong for a long period.However, even with very strong well-defined trends,there is likely to be a point at which the trend getsexhausted and there will be a reversal in price. Themodel incorporates the third and essential componentof “momentum-exhaustion” which attempts to identifythe price and time points at which the probability of ashort-term reversal in price trend is quite high. Thestrategy involves tracking price behavior and identifyingprice relationships that typically appear prior to andcoincident with market turning points.

This framework requires the fund manager to monitor thelevel, rate of change and pattern of changes in themomentum for these asset classes on a regular basis.Under normal conditions, the fund manager would take thedecision to reallocate the funds based on the relativestrength of momentum and its rate of change for eachasset class. However, given the indications of momentumexhaustion reallocation will be based on the contrary stanceto the existing momentum signal. In this framework, FundManager will use the “momentum-exhaustion” strategy solelyon the equity asset class. When either a buy or sell signalis triggered using this strategy, the weight obtained forequity using the Momentum and Rate of change frameworkwill be over-ruled. In other words, under a “Buy” signal, theportfolio will entirely shift to the equity asset class whileunder the “Sell” signal, the equity weight in the portfolio willbe reduced to zero. This will last as long as the buy or sellsignal is active. The “momentum-exhaustion” signals willeventually get deactivated either upon realizing a pre-calculated profit target or upon reaching a stop-loss level.Buy and sell signals using the “momentum-exhaustion”strategy is triggered relatively infrequently.

The frequency of reallocation and portfolio turnover will bemaintained under control by allowing small deviation fromthe target weights suggested by the above strategy. Theasset classes will retain market adjusted weights as long asthe deviation from targeted weight is below an absolutepercentage threshold. The allocation strategy of SBIDynamic Asset Allocation Fund, under certain volatile marketconditions, may signal frequent rebalancing of the portfolioin a short period of time.

The Scheme will use the derivatives for portfoliorebalancing. Use of derivatives will provide us the ability tofollow these frequent signals and efficiently manage thefund. Derivatives on major equity indices are more liquidand less expensive to transact in comparison to selling orbuying each individual securities in the portfolio. Derivativeswill provide the ability to make larger changes in the allocationwithout increasing the risk of illiquidity. The exposure toderivatives will be gradually reduced as the market retainsa stable trend.

*The Benchmark Index of the Scheme to be changed from S&P BSE 100 Index to S&P BSE 500 Index as the scheme invests across marketcapitalizations.

APPLICABLE INVESTMENT RESTRICTIONS FOR REITs AND InvITs:• SBI Mutual Fund will invest in the units of REITs and InvITs subject to the following:

(a) SBI Mutual Fund under all its schemes shall not own more than 10% of units issued by a single issuer of REIT and InvIT; and(b) The scheme shall not invest -

i. more than 10% of its NAV in the units of REIT and InvIT; andii. more than 5% of its NAV in the units of REIT and InvIT issued by a single issuer

RISK FACTORS ASSOCIATED WITH INVESTMENTS IN REITs AND InvITs:Risk of lower than expected distributions: The distributions by the REIT or InvIT will be based on the net cash flows available fordistribution. The amount of cash available for distribution principally depends upon the amount of cash that the REIT/InvIT receives asdividends or the interest and principal payments from portfolio assets. The cash flows generated by portfolio assets from operations mayfluctuate primarily based on the below, among other things:• success and economic viability of tenants and off-takers• economic cycles and risks inherent in the business which may negatively impact valuations, returns and profitability of portfolio assets• force majeure events related such as earthquakes, floods etc. rendering the portfolio assets inoperable• debt service requirements and other liabilities of the portfolio assets• fluctuations in the working capital needs of the portfolio assets• ability of portfolio assets to borrow funds and access capital markets• changes in applicable laws and regulations, which may restrict the payment of dividends by portfolio assets• amount and timing of capital expenditures on portfolio assets• insurance policies may not provide adequate protection against various risks associated with operations of the REIT/InvIT such as fire,

natural disasters, accidents• taxation and other regulatory factorsPrice-Risk: The valuation of the REIT/InvIT units may fluctuate based on economic conditions, fluctuations in markets (eg. real estate) inwhich the REIT/InvIT operates and the resulting impact on the value of the portfolio of assets, regulatory changes, force majeure eventsetc. REITs & InvITs may have volatile cash flows. As an indirect shareholder of portfolio assets, unit holders rights are subordinated to therights of creditors, debt holders and other parties specified under Indian law in the event of insolvency or liquidation of any of theportfolio assets.Interest-Rate Risk: Generally, there would be an inverse relationship between the interest rates and the price of units. Generally, when theinterest rates rise, prices of units fall and when interest rates drop, such prices increase.Liquidity Risk: This refers to the ease with which REIT/InvIT units can be sold. There is no assurance that an active secondary marketwill develop or be maintained. Hence there would be time when trading in the units could be infrequent. The subsequent valuation of illiquidunits may reflect a discount from the market price of comparable securities for which a liquid market exists.

RISK CONTROL:The Investment Manager endeavours to invest in REITs/InvITs, where adequate due diligence and research has been performed by theInvestment Manager. The Investment Manager also relies on its own research as well as third party research. This involves one-to-onemeetings with the managements, attending conferences and analyst meets and also tele-conferences. The analysis will focus, amongstothers, on the predictability and strength of cash flows, value of assets, capital structure, business prospects, policy environment, strengthof management, responsiveness to business conditions, etc.

RISK FACTORS ASSOCIATED WITH INVESTMENTS IN STOCK LENDING:There are risks inherent to securities lending, including the risk of failure of the other party, in this case the approved intermediary, to complywith the terms of the agreement. Such failure can result in the possible loss of rights to the collateral, the inability of the approvedintermediary to return the securities deposited by the lender and the possible loss of any corporate benefits accruing thereon.

RISKS FACTORS ASSOCIATED WITH INVESTING IN FOREIGN SECURITIES (FOR EQUITY ORIENTED SCHEMES):• Subject to necessary approvals and within the investment objectives of the Scheme, the Scheme may invest in Foreign Securities

including foreign equities, ADRs, GDRs, mutual funds and exchange traded funds, unlisted securities, government securities,corporate debt securities, money market instruments, repos not involving borrowing and short-term deposits with overseas banks. Suchinvestments carry risks related to fluctuations in the foreign exchange rates, the nature of the securities market of the country,repatriation of capital due to exchange controls and political circumstances.

• It is the AMC’s belief that investment in Foreign Securities offers new investment and portfolio diversification opportunities into multi-market and multi-currency products. However, such investments also entail additional risks. Such investment opportunities may bepursued by the AMC provided they are considered appropriate in terms of the overall investment objectives of the Scheme. Since theScheme(s) would invest only partially in Foreign Securities, there may not be readily available and widely accepted benchmarks tomeasure performance of the Scheme.

• Overseas investments will be made subject to any/all approvals, conditions thereof as may be stipulated under the SEBI Regulationsor by RBI and provided such investments do not result in expenses to the Scheme(s) in excess of the ceiling on expenses prescribedby and consistent with costs and expenses attendant to international investing. The Mutual Fund may, where necessary, appoint otherintermediaries of repute as advisors, custodian/sub-custodians, etc. for managing and administering such investments. The appointmentof such intermediaries shall be in accordance with the applicable requirements of SEBI and within the permissible ceilings of expenses.

· To the extent that the assets of the Scheme(s) will be invested in Foreign Securities denominated in foreign currencies, the Indian Rupeeequivalent of the net assets, distributions and income may be adversely affected by changes in the value of certain foreign currenciesrelative to the Indian Rupee. The repatriation of capital to India may also be hampered by changes in regulations concerning exchangecontrols or political circumstances as well as the application to it of other restrictions on investment.

RISKS FACTORS ASSOCIATED WITH INVESTING IN FOREIGN SECURITIES (FOR DEBT ORIENTED SCHEMES):a. Currency Risk:

Moving from Indian Rupee (INR) to any other currency entails currency risk. To the extent that the assets of the Scheme will beinvested in securities denominated in foreign currencies, the Indian Rupee equivalent of the net assets, distributions and income maybe adversely affected by changes in the value of certain foreign currencies relative to the Indian Rupee.

b. Interest Rate Risk:The pace and movement of interest rate cycles of various countries, though loosely co-related, can differ significantly. Hence byinvesting in securities of countries other than India, the Scheme stand exposed to their interest rate cycles.

c. Credit Risk:Investment in Foreign Debt Securities are subject to the risk of an issuer’s inability to meet interest and principal payments on itsobligations and market perception of the creditworthiness of the issuer. This is substantially reduced since the SEBI (MF) Regulationsstipulate investments only in debt instruments with rating not below investment grade by accredited/registered credit rating agency. Tomanage risks associated with foreign currency and interest rate exposure, the Mutual Fund may use derivatives for efficient portfoliomanagement including hedging and in accordance with conditions as may be stipulated by SEBI/RBI from time to time.

d. Country Risk:The Country risk arises from the inability of a country, to meet its financial obligations. It is the risk encompassing economic, socialand political conditions in a foreign country, which might adversely affect foreign investors’ financial interests. In addition, countryrisks would include events such as introduction of extraordinary exchange controls, economic deterioration, bi-lateral conflict leadingto immobilisation of the overseas financial assets and the prevalent tax laws of the respective jurisdiction for execution of trades orotherwise.To manage risks associated with foreign currency and interest rate exposure, the Mutual Fund may use derivatives for efficientportfolio management including hedging and in accordance with conditions as may be stipulated by SEBI/RBI from time to time.

RISK FACTORS ASSOCIATED WITH REPO TRANSACTIONS IN CORPORATE DEBT SECURITIES:Corporate Bond Repo transactions are currently done on OTC basis and settled on non guaranteed basis. Credit risks could arise if thecounterparty does not return the security as contracted on due date. The liquidation of underlying bonds in case of counterparty defaultwould depend on the liquidity of the bond and market conditions at that time. This risk is largely mitigated, as the choice of counterpartiesis largely restricted and also haircuts are applicable on the underlying bonds depending on credit ratings. Also operational risks are lower assuch trades are settled on a DVP basis.

NOTICE

In the event of the scheme(s) being unable to pay back the money to the counterparty as contracted in case of transactions as a borrower,the counter party may dispose of the assets (as they have sufficient margin) and the net proceeds may be refunded to the Mutual Fund. Thus,the scheme(s) may in remote cases suffer losses. This risk is normally mitigated by better cash flow planning to take care of such repayments.

RISK FACTORS ASSOCIATED WITH INVESTMENTS IN SECURITISED DEBT:(i) The Scheme may be exposed to risks associated with investing in asset backed securities (ABS), i.e. securitised debt. The underlying assets

in the case of investment in securitised debt could be mortgages [being mortgage backed securities (MBS)] or other assets like credit cardreceivables, automobile/vehicle, consumer durables, personal, commercial or corporate loans and any other receivables, loans or debt.

(ii) Different types of securitised debt/structured instruments carry different levels and types of risks and the NAV(s) of the Scheme may,to the extent that its assets are invested in such instruments, fluctuate depending on the value of such instruments. For instance,credit risk on securitised bonds depends upon the credit worthiness of the originator and would vary depending on whether such bondsare issued with recourse to the originator or otherwise (a structure with recourse will have a lower credit risk than a structure withoutrecourse). Even within securitised debt, AAA rated securitised debt offers lesser risk of default than AA rated securitised debt. Changesin/withdrawal of the credit rating of the instruments issued by the originator may affect the value of the Scheme’s investments andconsequently, the NAV of the Units.

(iii) Underlying assets in securitised debt may assume different forms and the general types of receivables include Auto Finance, CreditCards, Personal Loans/Receivables, Home Loans/Receivables, Corporate Loans/Receivables and other retail loans. Credit risksrelating to these types of receivables depend upon various factors including macro economic factors impacting each of theseindustries. Specific factors like nature and adequacy of property mortgaged against these borrowings and the nature of loan agreement/mortgage deed in case of Home Loans, adequacy of documentation in case of Auto Finance and Home Loans, capacity of the borrowerto meet its obligations in case of Credit Cards and intentions of the borrower influence the risks relating to the asset borrowingsunderlying the securitised debt.

(iv) If a court/regulatory authority concludes that the sale from the originator to the securitisation trust was not a “true sale”, the Scheme(s)may, in the event that it has invested in instruments issued by such trust, experience losses or delays in the payments due and theNAV of the Units may be affected thereby. Care is generally taken while structuring the transaction so as to minimize the risk of thesale to the trust not being construed as a “true sale” and legal opinion confirming that the sale constitutes a true sale is usually obtained.

(v) Presently, the secondary market for securitised papers is not very liquid and there is no assurance that a deep secondary market will developfor such securities. This could limit the ability of the Scheme(s) to resell such securities. Even if a secondary market develops and sales wereto take place, these secondary transactions may be at a discount to the initial issue price due to changes in the interest rate structure.

(vi) In case of securitised debt, changes in market interest rates and pre-payments may not change the absolute amount of receivables forthe investors but may have an impact on the re-investment of the periodic cash flows that an investor receives on securitised papers.

(vii) Securitised debt papers carry credit risk of the obligors and are dependent on the servicing of the Pass Through Certificates,contributions, etc. However, these are offset suitably by appropriate pool selection as well as credit enhancements specified by CreditRating Agencies. However, the credit enhancement stipulated in a securitization transaction represents a limited loss cover only.Delinquencies and credit losses may cause depletion of the amount available under the cash collateral account and thereby thescheduled payouts of the investors may get affected if the amount available in the cash collateral account is not enough to cover theshortfall. In cases where the underlying facilities are linked to benchmark rates, the securitized debt papers may be adversely impactedby adverse movements in benchmark rates. However, this risk is mitigated to an extent by appropriate credit enhancement specifiedby Credit Rating Agencies.

Risk of Co-mingling:The servicers normally deposit all payments received from the obligors into the collection account. However, there could be a time gapbetween collection by a servicer and depositing the same into the collection account especially considering that some of the collections maybe in the form of cash. In this interim period, collections from the loan agreements may not be segregated from other funds of the servicer.If the servicer fails to remit such funds due to investors, the investors may be exposed to a potential loss. Due care is normally taken toensure that the servicer enjoys highest credit rating on stand alone basis to minimize co-mingling risk.

RISK FACTORS ASSOCIATED WITH IMPERFECT HEDGE USING INTEREST RATE FUTURES:1. The cost of hedge can be higher than adverse impact of market movements.

2. Price/change in price of a security may or may not be the same in spot/cash and futures segment of the market. This may lead to thehedging position not giving the exact desired hedge result.

3. Derivatives will entail a counter-party risk to the extent of amount that can become due from the party.

4. Efficiency of a derivatives market depends on the development of a liquid and efficient market for underlying securities.

Consider a hypothetical portfolio or a part of a larger portfolio composed of 3 different securities with a Portfolio Average Modified Durationof 6.74. On account of change in economic factors, it is expected that the interest rates could go up by 1% over the coming days. Theportfolio would look to hedge the impact on this portfolio through selling IRF, of which the underlying security is different as given. Thiswould be an example of imperfect hedge where the portfolio that is hedged and the instrument underlying the futures contract are different.

The maximum number of contracts in IRF to sold is given by the following formula=( Market Value portfolio * Modified Duration of portfolio)/(Market Value of 1 Futures contract* Modified Duration of futures).

Market Value Portfolio* Modified Duration of Portfolio 31,654,557,509.18

Market Value of 1 Futures Contract 201,985.00

No of contracts to be sold 23,183.04

Market Value of Futures (in Cr.) 468.26

Negative Impact on Portfolio (in Cr.) -31.65

Positive Gain on Futures (in Cr.) 31.65

The impact on portfolio due to a 1% rise in yields is approx ` 31.65 crs. Since the portfolio has sold IRF contracts , the gain on account ofthe same is around ` 31.65 crs. Accordingly the loss on the underlying portfolio is hedged through IRF even as the underlying securitiesare different. The scheme would pursue imperfect hedging to the extent permitted by extant SEBI guidelines.

CONCEPT OF MACAULAY DURATION:The Macaulay duration measures the weighted average term to maturity of the bond’s cash flow. The weights in this weighted average arethe present value of each cash flow as a percent of the present value of all the bond’s cash flows.

Macaulay’s Duration is linked to the price volatility of a bond.

Duration is the fund manager’s tool for structuring a portfolio of bonds to have the desired sensitivity.

Illustration :Macaulay Duration is a measure of the average life of a security. More specifically, it is the weighted average term-to-maturity of thesecurity’s cash flows. Mathematically, it is:

t1 x PVCF1 + t2 x PVCF2+ t3 x PVCF3 +.... + tn x PVCFtDuration =

k x PVTCFwhere

PVCFt = the present value of the cash flow in period t discounted at the yield-to-maturity.

PVTCF = the total present value of the cash flow of the security determined by the yield-to-maturity, or simply the price of the security.

K = number of payments per year.

DISCLOSURES PERTAINING TO SECURTIZED DEBT:Risk profile of securitized debt vis-a-vis risk appetite of the schemeThe risk of investing in securitized debt is similar to investing in debt securities. However it differs from other debt securities in two ways:• Liquidity: Typically the liquidity of securitized debt is less than similar debt securities.• Pre-payment: For certain types of securitized debt (backed by mortgages, personal loans, credit card debt, etc.), there is an additional

pre-payment risk. Pre-payment risk refers to the possibility that loans are repaid before they are due, which may reduce returns if there-investment rates are lower than initially envisaged.

Policy relating to originators:A securitization transaction involves sale of receivables by the originator (a bank, non-banking finance company, housing finance company,or a manufacturing/service company) to a Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV), typically set up in the form of a trust. Investors are issued ratedPass Through Certificates (PTCs), the proceeds of which are paid as consideration to the originator. In this manner, the originator, by sellinghis loan receivables to an SPV, receives consideration from investors much before the maturity of the underlying loans. Investors are paidfrom the collections of the underlying loans from borrowers. Typically, the transaction is provided with a limited amount of creditenhancement (as stipulated by the rating agency for a target rating), which provides protection to investors against defaults by theunderlying borrowers.The scheme will invest in instruments of the originator only if the originator has an investment grade rating. Over and above the credit ratingassigned by credit rating agencies to the originator, SBI MF will conduct an additional evaluation on:• Previous track record on origination, servicing and performance of existing pools• Willingness to pay, through credit enhancement facilities etc.• Ability to pay• Business risk assessment, wherein following factors are considered:

- Outlook for the economy (domestic and global)- Outlook for the industry- Originator/Pool specific factors

For single loan PTC, credit evaluation of the underlying corporate will be carried out as with any other debt instruments

RISK MITIGATION STRATEGIES:

Risk mitigation strategies will depend on each asset class, whether they are unsecured loans or secured, seasoning, collection history, pastrecovery rates, originator’s financial profile, servicing performance, etc for each asset class. SBI MF will invest in pools with investmentgrade rating by SEBI recognised rating agencies. In addition some specific risk mitigation measures will include:

Risk Mitigants

Credit Risk Analysis of originator with respect to past track record, systems and processes, performance of pools, collateraladequacy and disclosure frequency; Analysis of specific pool with respect to nature of underlying asset,seasoning, loan sizes, loan to value ratio, geographical diversity, etc

Counterparty Risk Past track record of handling securitized transactions, disclosure adequacy and frequency

Legal Risk Check with rating agency that investors’ interest is not compromised, specific protection measures likebankruptcy remoteness, etc are built in separate in-house legal opinion on transactions,

Market Risk Liquidity, Prepayment and Interest Rate Risk Analysis and level of their mitigation through transaction structureand credit enhancements provided.

The level of diversification with respect to the underlying assets, and risk mitigation measures for less diversified investments:

Information illustrated in the Table above, is based on the current scenario relating to Securitized Debt market and is subject to changedepending upon the change in the related factors. The investment committee will review the above guidelines considering the extantRBI guidelines pertaining to securitization.

We endeavor to consider some of the important risk mitigating factors for securitized pool i.e.

• Average original maturity of the pool: based on different asset classes and current market practices

• Collateral margin including cash collateral and other credit enhancements

• Loan to Value Ratio

• Average seasoning of the pool, which is a key indicator of past pool performance

• Default rate distribution

• Geographical Distribution

• Maximum single exposure: Retail pools (passenger cars, 2-wheelers, Micro finance, personal loans, etc) are generally well diversifiedwith maximum and average single exposure limits within 1%.

As illustrated above, these factors vary for different asset classes and would be based on interactions with each originator as well as thecredit rating agency.

Minimum retention period of the debt by originator prior to securitization:

The scheme shall invest in securitized debt as per final RBI guidelines issued on May 7, 2012 and as amended till date.

Minimum retention percentage by originator of debts to be securitized

The scheme shall invest in securitized debt as per final RBI guidelines issued on May 7, 2012 and as amended till date.

The mechanism to tackle conflict of interest when the mutual fund invests in securitized debt of an originator and the originatorin turn makes investments in that particular scheme of the fund.

Investments made by the Scheme in any asset are done based on the requirements of the Scheme and is in accordance with the investmentpolicy. All Investments are made entirely at an arm’s length basis with no consideration of any existing/consequent investments by anyparty related to the transaction (originator, issuer, borrower etc.). Investments made in Securitized debt are made as per the Investmentpattern of the Scheme and are done after detailed analysis of the underlying asset. There might be instances of Originator investing in thesame scheme but both the transactions are at arm’s length and avoid any conflict of interest.

The resources and mechanism of individual risk assessment with the AMC for monitoring investment in securitized debt.

As with any other debt instruments, investment in securitized debt instruments will be closely monitored by a dedicated team of creditanalysts, ratings of any such instruments will be continuously tracked and periodic performance report from Trustee and MIS fromOriginators, if any would be scrutinized closely.

RISK FACTORS ASSOCIATED WITH TRADING IN DERIVATIVES:

a) Derivatives are high risk, high return instruments as they may be highly leveraged. A small price movement in the underlying securitycould have a large impact on their value and may also result in a loss.

b) Derivative products are leveraged instruments and can provide disproportionate gains as well as disproportionate losses to theinvestor. Execution of such strategies depends upon the ability of the fund manager to identify such opportunities. Identification andexecution of the strategies to be pursued by the fund manager involve uncertainty and decision of fund manager may not always beprofitable. No assurance can be given that the fund manager will be able to identify or execute such strategies.

c) The risks associated with the use of derivatives are different from or possibly greater than, the risks associated with investing directlyin securities and other traditional investments.

d) The fund may use derivative instruments like Interest Rate Swaps, Forward Rate Agreements or other fixed income derivatives.

e) Credit Risk: The credit risk in a derivative transaction is the risk that the counter party will default on its obligations and is generally low,as there is no exchange of principal amounts in a derivative transaction.

f ) Market risk: Derivatives carry the risk of adverse changes in the market price.

g) Illiquidity risk: The risk that a derivative cannot be sold or purchased quickly enough at a fair price, due to lack of liquidity in the market.

h) Floating Leg Risk: The fund pays the daily compounded rate. In practice however there can be a difference in the actual rate at whichmoney is lent in the call market and the benchmark, which appears and is used.

It may be mentioned here that the guidelines issued by Reserve Bank of India from time to time for forward rate agreements and interestrate swaps and other derivative products would be adhered to.

INVESTMENT IN REPO IN CORPORATE BONDS:

In accordance with the SEBI Circular no. CIR/IMD/DF/19/2011 dated November 11, 2011 read with SEBI Circular no. CIR/IMD/DF/23/2012dated November 15, 2012 on participation in repo in corporate debt securities, the following broad guidelines as per the policy approved byBoard of AMC and Trustee shall be followed by the Scheme:

1. The gross exposure of the scheme to repo transactions in corporate debt securities shall not be more than 10% of the net assets of theconcerned scheme.

2. The cumulative gross exposure through repo transactions in corporate debt securities along with equity, debt and derivatives shall notexceed 100% of the net assets of the concerned scheme.

3. The Scheme shall participate in repo transactions only in AA and above rated corporate debt securities.

4. The Schemes shall borrow through repo transactions only if the tenor of the transaction does not exceed a period of 6 months in termsof Regulation 44 (2) of SEBI (Mutual Funds) Regulations, 1996.

Further, the following conditions and norms shall apply to repo in corporate debt securities as approved by the Board of AMC & TrusteeCompany:

1. Category of counterparty - The schemes of SBI Mutual Fund would transact in corporate bond repo only with counterparties in theapproved list applicable for secondary market transactions in Corporate and Money market securities.

2. Credit Rating of the counterparty - The schemes shall participate in corporate bond repo transactions with only those counterpartieswho have a credit rating of AA and above and are part of the approved counterparty universe. Corporate bond repo transactions withcounterparties rated below AA- would be with prior approval of the Board.

3. Tenor of collateral - The tenor of the repo would be capped at 3 months. This would apply to transactions where the schemes are eithera lender or a borrower. The tenor of the collateral would be capped at 10 years. Prior approval of the investment committee of SBI MutualFund would be taken for any extension of the term of the repo or increase in the tenor of the collateral in compliance with the applicableSEBI guidelines.

4. Applicable haircuts - The applicable minimum haircut would be as per the extant RBI and SEBI guidelines. As per RBI circular RBI/2012-13/365 IDMD.PCD. 09/14.03.02/2012-13 dated 07/01/2013, all corporate bond repo transactions will be subject to a minimumhaircut given as below. The minimum haircut will be applicable on the market value of the corporate debt securities prevailing on the dayof trade of the 1st leg. The schemes may ask for a higher haircut (while lending) or give a higher haircut (while borrowing) dependingon the prevailing market situation.

Rating AAA AA+ AA

Minimum Haircut 7.50% 8.50% 10%

STOCK LENDING:

The scheme may also engage in stock lending. Stock lending means the lending of stock to another person or entity for a fixed period oftime, at a negotiated compensation. The securities lent will be returned by the borrower on expiry of the stipulated period. The Fund mayin future carry out stock-lending activity under the scheme, in order to augment its income. Stock lending may involve risk of default onpart of the borrower. However, this risk will be substantially reduced as the Fund has opted for the “Principal Lender Scheme of StockLending”, where entire risk of borrower’s default rests with approved intermediary and not with the Fund. There may also be risks associatedwith Stock Lending such as liquidity and other market risks. Any stock lending done by the scheme shall be in accordance with anyRegulations or guidelines regarding the same. The AMC will apply the following limits, should it desire to engage in Stock Lending:

(a) Not more than 20% of the net assets can generally be deployed in Stock Lending.

(b) Not more than 5% of the net assets can generally be deployed in Stock Lending to any single counter party.
