3 Introduction We are pleased to present the for the HBOS Specialised Investment Funds ICVC ( the Company ) for the six month period ended 30 November The financial statements have been prepared on an aggregated basis including all Funds as permitted by the Financial Conduct Authority's (''the FCA'') Collective Investment Schemes sourcebook ( the COLL sourcebook ). As required by the COLL sourcebook, information for each of the five Funds has also been included. About the Company The HBOS Specialised Investment Funds ICVC is an Open-Ended Investment Company ( OEIC ) with variable capital incorporated in England and Wales since 27 September 2000 and authorised by the Financial Services Authority (which has since been succeeded by the Financial Conduct Authority the FCA ) with effect from 20 September The Company is managed by HBOS Investment Fund Managers Limited, the Authorised Corporate Director ( the ACD ), who is responsible for the day to day running of the Company including the preparation of interim and annual reports. The property of the Company is entrusted to State Street Trustees Limited ("the Depositary"). The objective of the Company is to invest the Scheme Property in transferable securities, money market instruments, cash and near cash, derivatives and forward transactions, deposits and units (as defined in the COLL sourcebook) of collective investment schemes in accordance with the COLL sourcebook with the aim of spreading investment risk and giving its shareholders the benefit of the results of the management of that property. The Shareholders have no interest in the scheme property, and are not liable for the debts of the Company. The Company is a UCITS scheme operating in accordance with the COLL sourcebook and is structured as an umbrella company, as defined in the Open-Ended Investment Company Regulations 2001 ( the OEIC Regulations ), in that it currently contains five Funds, each with different investment objectives. New Funds may be established from time to time by the ACD with the approval of the FCA. Within the financial statements there is an investment review for each Fund, which includes details of the investment objectives. The Cautious Managed Fund was launched on 6 April The following four Funds were launched on 3 November 2000 following the conversion of four existing unit trusts: Ethical Fund Fund of Investment Trusts Smaller Companies Fund Special Situations Fund 1

4 Director's Report and Statement Director's Report HBOS Investment Fund Managers Limited is the Authorised Corporate Director ( the ACD ) and Registrar for the HBOS Specialised Investment Funds ICVC. HBOS Investment Fund Managers Limited is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority ( the FCA ). The ACD is the sole director. The HBOS Specialised Investment Funds ICVC is an Open-Ended Investment Company with variable capital under Regulation 12 (Authorisation) of the Open-Ended Investment Companies Regulations It is a UCITS retail scheme and is structured as an umbrella scheme with five Funds. The shareholders are not liable for any debts of the Company. As the Funds are not legal entities, if the assets attributable to any Fund were insufficient to meet the liabilities attributable to it, the shortfall might have to be met out of the assets attributable to one or more other Funds of the HBOS Specialised Investment Funds ICVC. The investment objective for each of the five Funds, together with the ACD's policy for achieving those objectives and a review of the investment activities during the period, is set out in the respective investment market overview in this report. During the period there have been a number of changes to the Company: These changes are detailed below in the section Prospectus changes. Prospectus changes During the period and up to the date of this report, the following changes were made to the Company and therefore the following changes were reflected in the Prospectus of HBOS Specialised Investment Funds ICVC: With effect from 1 October 2013, for certain share classes of the Scheme (as detailed below) the existing fee charges were changed to allow the fees of auditors, tax, legal and other professional advisors (the Expense) to be paid out of the Scheme property. For share classes A, Institutional and Scottish Widows Share Class 1 for all sub-funds of the Scheme, the ACD amended the Prospectus of the Scheme to allow it to pay the Expense out of the scheme property. The ACD has deemed it necessary to make the changes due to increasing costs associated with management of the Scheme where such costs are primarily incurred as a result of investing in and operating in certain overseas jurisdictions where filing of overseas tax returns and reclaims is required through agents in order to provide the optimum returns for the potential benefit of Shareholders in the Scheme. As a result, the costs will be aligned with the benefits accruing to the Scheme. With effect from 1 October 2013, the investment and borrowing powers of the Cautious Managed Fund were amended to allow for wider investment in other collective investment schemes (as notified to Shareholders in August 2013). The Cautious Managed Fund may now invest up to 20 the value of its scheme property in other regulated collective investment schemes. Under the FCA rules, the Cautious Managed Fund could be permitted to invest all of its scheme property in other collective investment schemes but, until this change, the Fund was restricted to investing only 10 its assets in this way. However, we believe that the Fund should take only the flexibility we view as being in the best interests of shareholders, considering the investment objective and policy of the Fund and so we raised the permitted level of investment to 20%. This change is not intended to have any impact on the risk profile of the Fund. A copy of the Prospectus is available on request. 2

5 Director's Report and Statement (continued) Important information Amendments to the UK Regulations governing Open-Ended Investment Companies and the *FCA s Collective Investment Schemes sourcebook which require limitation of liability between sub-funds of the Company came into effect on 21 December The new segregated liability regime is mandatory and it is our intention to apply to the FCA within the transitional period for approval to amend the Company s Prospectus and Instrument of Incorporation which will provide for this change. The transitional implementation period is open until 20 December *FSA was replaced by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) on 1 April In the future, the Company may launch further Funds. The ultimate parent undertaking of the ACD is Lloyds Banking Group plc. The statement of the ACD's Responsibilities is set out on page 4 of this report. The names and addresses of the ACD, the Depositary, the Investment Adviser, the Registrar and the Auditors can be found on page 88 of this report. Director's Statement In accordance with the rules in the Collective Investment Schemes sourcebook as issued and amended by the Financial Conduct Authority, I hereby approve the report and financial statements on behalf of the Authorised Corporate Director of the HBOS Specialised Investment Funds ICVC. Robert Fletcher Director HBOS Investment Fund Managers Limited 30 January

6 Statement and Reports Statement of the Authorised Corporate Director's (ACD's) Responsibilities The rules in the Collective Investment Schemes sourcebook issued by the Financial Conduct Authority ("the FCA") require the ACD to prepare financial statements for each accounting period which give a true and fair view of the financial position of the Company and of the net revenue and net gains and losses on the property of the Company for the period then ended. In preparing the financial statements the ACD is required to: select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; make judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; comply with the disclosure requirements of the Statement of Recommended Practice relating to the Financial Statements of Authorised Funds issued by the Investment Management Association in October 2010; follow generally accepted UK accounting principles and applicable UK accounting standards; and prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Company will continue in operation. The ACD is responsible for keeping proper accounting records and for the management of the Company in accordance with its Instrument of Incorporation, the Prospectus and the FCA Rules. The ACD has general responsibility for taking such steps as are reasonably open to it to prevent and detect fraud and other irregularities. 4

9 Notes to the Financial Statements Accounting Policies The aggregated financial statements represent the summation of the financial statements for each of the sub-funds. The interim financial statements for each of the sub-funds have been prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) for Authorised Funds issued by the Investment Management Association (IMA) in October 2010 (the IMA SORP 2010). The accounting and distribution policies applied are consistent with those of the financial statements for the year ended 31 May 2013 and are described in those annual financial statements. 7

10 Cautious Managed Fund Investment markets overview Investment objective The investment objective of the Cautious Managed Fund is to achieve long term growth by investing in a managed portfolio of equities investing mainly in the UK and fixed interest investments such as corporate bonds and gilts. Investment policy The Fund will actively manage a balanced mixture of assets between equities and fixed interest investments. The core of the equity assets within the Fund will tend to be invested in large companies whilst maintaining a reasonable presence in medium and small sized companies with above average potential for growth. However, the Fund is not restricted to the choice of company either by size or industry. The fixed interest assets will be invested primarily in a wide range of Sterling and Euro dominated investment grade interest bearing securities. UCITS scheme The Fund would qualify as a UCITS scheme operating under Chapter 5 of the COLL sourcebook if it were in itself an Open-Ended Investment Company in respect of which an authorisation order made by the FCA were in force. Not more than 20 the scheme property may consist of units in collective investment schemes. Synthetic risk and reward profile There are several different ways of measuring risk. The table below uses an industry standard measure of fund risk based on measuring a fund's volatility using its returns over the past five years. Volatility is generated by both rising and falling prices. Volatility doesn't tell you how much a fund has lost or gained; it indicates how volatile its returns were historically. The Fund's ranking may change over time and may not be a reliable indication of its future risk profile. This is a separate measure to the fund Risk Profiles we used to determine our investment portfolios (where we used our own methodology to take an overall look at the funds' risks and aims and group our funds into Cautious/Medium, Medium, Medium/Adventurous, Adventurous Profiles). This Fund is ranked at 5 because it has experienced medium to high levels of volatility over the past 5 years. The synthetic risk and reward indicator shown above is accurate and there have been no changes to this ranking to date.

11 Cautious Managed Fund Investment markets overview (continued) Investment review (continued) The period under review produced mixed returns, although on the whole equities outperformed. The Fund adopts a comparatively cautious approach, which means it did not participate in the equity rally to the same extent as funds that are focussed purely on equities. It generated a gross return of 1.16% over the six months under review. Looking first at fixed income markets, both government and corporate bonds struggled over the last six months. Yields on government bonds rose, and prices fell throughout much of the reporting period. The initial causes were stronger-than-usual economic data and signs that central banks might start to withdraw their monetary stimulus policies, which have involved the purchase of bonds. However, after the Federal Reserve (Fed) reassured investors that its extraordinary stimulus measures would remain in place for the time being, a large part of the earlier falls were reversed. Corporate bonds outperformed their government-issued equivalents, as investors continued on their search for higher yield investments. The Fund s bond holdings are mainly concentrated within corporate bonds, which helped shield investors from some of the losses incurred in the government bond sector. The Fund s equity holdings produced stronger returns. The Fund s main equity position is in the UK equity market, which performed well. The main driver of sentiment stemmed from overseas and the ongoing extraordinary support from the world s central bankers. The US Fed, for example, has been ploughing $85 billion-a-month into the world s largest economy in order to spur growth. But it wasn t only events in the US that occupied UK investors. News that the economy is starting to recover was well received. This proved particularly beneficial for stocks that are sensitive to economic conditions. Looking ahead, we expect that stock markets will continue to receive support from modest economic improvements, combined with ongoing stimulus measures from central banks. As a result, the Fund retains a comparatively high weighting in equities. However, gains in the coming year appear unlikely to be of the magnitude experienced over the last year and a half and markets looks set for further volatility. For this reason, maintaining a cautiously managed portfolio of diversified holdings remains a sensible strategy. Scottish Widows Investment Partnership Limited December
