STAFF DEALING POLICES

 

2 January 2014

 

 

1.Scope

 

The Company’s Staff Dealing Policies govern the trading activities of the personal accounts of the Company’s employees and executive directors (the “Employee”), their spouse, their minor children, or any other person to who the employee provides the significant financial support and accounts in which they directly or indirectly hold beneficial interests. The Staff Dealing Policies are considered as a part of the Compliance Manual (the “Manual”) maintained at Bosera International and should read with the Manual from time to time. The types of securities to be covered, approved for trading and reported for disclosures are listed out in the Appendix 1 – Security Type.

 

2.Disclosure Requirements

 

All Employees (including those executive directors) is required to disclose his/her initial holdings later than 10 days after he/she becomes an access person and the information provided must be current within 45 days prior to the date the report was submitted.

 

All employees will then have to disclose his/her holdings once in every quarter within 15 days at the end of each quarter covering the details of holdings and trading activities which may or may not be subject to the pre-trade clearance. Even if the employees do not have any holding, they are required to fill out the disclosure forms indicating that they have no holding by stating “NIL” in the name of investment column in both own and related accounts.

 

On an annual basis, the Employee is also required to confirm its annual holdings at least once each 12-month period within 45 days at the end of each calendar year.

 

To ensure that there are no instances where a conflict of interest occurs and to prevent occurrences where the Employee may benefit from privileged information at the expense of the clients, the employees wishing to conduct a trade for their personal accounts will have to seek prior approval before doing so. Please refer to Section 5 below for the procedures on pre-trade clearance. For avoidance of doubt, the Employee, is not required to obtain any prior approval in the manner as below when buying and selling any other mutual funds ( except for the one managed by Bosera International) managed by other 3rd party investment adviser for their personal accounts. However, disclosure of holding in other mutual funds or unit trust is still required to be done on a monthly basis via the submission of the relevant statements.

3.General Principles for personal trading

 

Employees are expected to devote their workdays to serving the interests of Bosera International and its clients. Accordingly each employee’s personal securities and other financial transactions must be oriented towards a philosophy of investment as distinguished from short-term or speculative trading.

 

In addition to complying with the Manual and all relevant policies and procedures (including those applicable to the Employee’s specific line of business), you should observe the following general investment principles in carrying out personal transactions in securities and other financial instruments. (All references to securities should be understood to include all financial instruments, such as equity securities, bonds and other debt securities, convertible securities, derivatives, options, and any stock index.)

 

a)While in possession of inside information about the issuer of any securities or the securities themselves, never buy, sell, or recommend the purchase or sale of such securities for your account or the accounts of others, regardless of whether the inside information is gained through the scope of your employment or elsewhere. If in doubt, don’t trade.

 

b)Do not buy or sell securities with knowledge of proposed client trades, trades by Bosera International or forthcoming research reports.

 

c)the trading and investment activities must be within the Employee’s financial means.

 

d)Do not ask for or accept any preferential terms or conditions in connection with any personal trading or investments, unless the terms are available to all persons having comparable portfolios and creditworthiness or to all employees under a plan negotiated by Bosera International.

 

e)Limit the risks in your personal account trading. Do not engage in excessive trading activities that represent a high degree of financial risk.

 

f)Trading and investment activities should be for investment purposes and not for short term trading profits.

 

g)Do not engage in speculative trading, such as trading based on rumors.

 

h)In general, Employees should not invest in a competitor (other than investments in securities of publicly traded companies). Competitors include unrelated financial services companies of any kind, and others engaged in any business the firm is involved in, such as banks, asset managers, depository institutions, credit unions, lenders, investment banks, insurers, insurance agencies, and securities brokers, dealers, and underwriters.

 

4.Approval to Open External Broking Account
