Aberdeen Asia-Pacific (ex-Japan) Equity Fund, Aberdeen China Opportunities Fund, Aberdeen Emerging Markets Fund and Aberdeen Japanese Equities Fund

The Asia-Pacific Equity Fund, the China Fund and the Japanese Equities Fund are managed by the Asia Pacific Equity Team. The Emerging Markets Fund is managed by the Global Emerging Markets Equity Team. Each team works in a truly collaborative fashion; all team members have both portfolio construction and research responsibilities. The teams work in an open floor plan environment in an effort to foster communication among all members. The Adviser and Subadvisers do not believe in having star managers, instead preferring to have both depth and experience within the team. Depth of team members allows the Adviser and Subadvisers to perform the diligent research required by the Adviser’s process. The experience of senior managers provides the confidence needed to take a long-term view.

The Teams are jointly and primarily responsible for the day-to-day management of the Funds, with the following members having the most significant responsibility for the day-to-day management of each Fund, as indicated:
