1 Teachers Cautious Investment Fund Annual Long Report for the year ended 30 June 2015

2 Report of the Manager Constitution The Fund was established on 9 February 2006 and is a unit trust scheme authorised by an authorisation order under Section 243 of the Financial Services and Markets Act The Scheme is classified as a non-ucits retail scheme and an Authorised Investment Fund (AIF). Fund Investment Objective and Policy The objective of the Fund is to achieve a high level of income along with an element of capital growth. The Manager s policy to achieve this objective is to invest directly, or indirectly through investment in a range of collective investment schemes, so as to gain exposure to a diversified portfolio of fixed interest securities and equities. Risk Profile and Attitude to Risk You are only willing to take low levels of risk. You are prepared to accept the potential for only a small amount of capital growth for the greater security of your money. You understand that you could still lose money on a Low Risk investment. You understand that Teachers Assurance may categorise its own investment fund as Low Risk where the fund typically invests: Up to 20% in equity markets (company shares) and the remainder in gilts, corporate bonds and cash. Risk Management Risk is managed by the careful management of the weighting of assets in the portfolio.

3 Report of the Manager (continued) Market Review The first half of the year was an eventful one. Investors had to navigate through the developments around Greece s financial and geopolitical future, which included a possible Grexit, a stock market bubble in China, signs of softening US economic growth, and key elections in Europe and the UK. Sentiment was generally positive in the first three months, as global economic activity stabilised and continued to warrant a continuation of accommodative monetary policies in developed countries with limited concerns around price inflation. However, the following three months were characterised by a material increase in market volatility, which began with a European bond market correction and the escalation of political events in Europe. The turmoil spread to other bond markets and eventually affected market sentiment more broadly. Against this backdrop, equity markets posted reasonable gains, but this masked considerable volatility and regional/ country divergence. US and UK equities added 1.7% and 1.2% over the period respectively, which contrasted with double digit returns for the Eurozone (+13.5%) and Japan (+16.1%). Monetary stimulus was a major driving theme of performance, particularly in the first three months. In January, the European Central Bank (ECB) committed for the first time in its history to engage in a full-scale Quantitative Easing (QE) programme, which was subsequently launched in March. Elsewhere, Chinese, Singaporean, Australian, Turkish, Canadian, Danish, Polish and Indian central banks all eased monetary policy in the first quarter of The QE announcement boosted confidence across Europe and, together with positive economic data, contributed to strong stock performance in the region. The attention of markets returned to Greece in the second quarter, with the focus on the Greek government s attempts to negotiate a vital extension of the bailout program it has relied upon for the past five years. As hopes for a deal between the nation and its creditors vanished, and the ECB ended its Emergency Lending Assistance program, the Greek government was forced to shut its banks and impose capital controls to avert the collapse of its financial system. Over the second quarter, equities corrected sharply, notably in Europe, with the UK down 3.4%, whilst the continent registered a 7.6% drop. In fixed income, concerns over a spillover of the Greek crisis led market participants to seek the safety of low-risk bonds such as German Bunds, UK Gilts and US Treasuries. Whilst these climbed during the days of turmoil, this did not compensate for the declines earlier in the month driven by a readjustment of inflation expectations in Europe and the anticipation of interest rate increases later this year in the US and the UK. Report of the Manager continued Overseas market moves were materially impacted by movements in Sterling (GBP) versus major developed currencies. For example, over the period, GBP gained 8.6% against the Euro. The movement was more muted against the US Dollar (USD) (+0.8%), but again this masked significant volatility. In the first quarter GBP posted a 5.1% decline against the USD, a move that helped the returns of assets held overseas. In contrast though, in the second quarter GBP added 5.7% against the USD, a move that was detrimental to overseas equities and bonds, and corporate bonds in particular, where the widening of spreads was relatively muted despite the market turmoil. Performance The Teachers Cautious Investment Fund declined by 0.35% over the past 6 months. Given the relatively low active risk budget, this is a positive outcome. The absolute performance of the Fund reflected the impact of negative returns within bonds (where the fund holds the majority of its assets). Nominal gilts declined by 1.3% alongside overseas corporate bonds, which were down 3.7%. The positive relative return was driven by favourable tactical positioning, notably in equities. These were funded by underweight exposures in both gilts and overseas corporate bonds a key contributor to returns given their negative performance over the period.

4 Report of the Manager (continued) Outlook BlackRock s core scenario for 2015 remains unchanged. They expect global economic growth to be below trend. Private sector deleveraging remains a headwind, but a varying one, whilst fiscal policy is likely to remain fairly restrictive globally. BlackRock expect developed short-term rates to diverge. US rates are set to rise by the end of 2015, whilst in contrast, the Eurozone and Japan maintain an accommodative stance. In emerging markets, BlackRock expect growth to normalize further. From an inflation perspective, BlackRock expect low to very low inflation, notably in the Euro area. Risk premia on risk assets remain attractive despite the recent rise in government bond yields. An improving growth environment in the US has materialized, whilst the Euro area and Japan have both benefited from central bank support. Equity valuations are on average at fair value across regions, but valuations in the US are starting to look stretched. In fixed income, credit spreads are narrow relative to long term averages, although BlackRock have seen some normalisation between US and Euro credit spreads, with Euro spreads widening. Overall, returns are likely to be less substantial and more volatile going forward. BlackRock regard the combination of moderate risk premia, loose monetary policy and no sustained downside growth surprises as supporting a risk-on strategy.

Interest on deposits is accounted for on an accruals basis. d) Expenses are recognised as incurred. e) Current tax: Corporation tax is charged on the net taxable income of the Fund at the rate applicable to unit trusts. f) Deferred tax: In accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 19, deferred tax liabilities are recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed by the balance sheet date, except where the timing difference is permanent. Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that they are regarded as recoverable. Where appropriate, discounting has been used to take account of the time value of the amount of tax deferred until future periods.

10 Notes to the Financial Statements (continued) 2 Distribution policies a) The distribution is determined based on the net revenue after taxation. All items of revenue are distributed. b) Unclaimed distributions from previous periods are taken to capital. c) Equalisation received as part of the distribution from collective investment schemes is treated as capital and is not distributed. d) Expenses, apart from custody transaction costs, which are included within net capital gains or losses, are deducted from revenue and no adjustment is made in determining the distribution. e) Equalisation, which forms part of the distribution, only applies to units purchased during the distribution period (group 2 units). It is the average amount of income included in the purchase price of all group 2 units and is refunded to holders of these units as a return of capital. Being capital it is not liable to income tax and must be deducted from the cost of units for capital gains tax purposes. 3 Purchases, sales and transaction costs As the Fund is currently invested in a range of collective investment schemes there are no direct broker charges and purchases of investments ( 7,738,980) and sales of investments ( 11,372,187) are the same before and after transaction costs Income Revenue Dividend income distribution on collective investment schemes 422, ,420 Interest income distribution on collective investment schemes 1,047,132 1,272,867 Bank interest 332 1,718 1,469,501 1,775,005 Capital Realised gains on non derivative securities 541, ,942 Unrealised gains on non derivative securities 1,845, ,041 Custody transaction costs payable to the Trustee (1,170) (2,190) Net capital gains 2,385, ,793 Where realised gains include gains arising in previous periods a corresponding loss is included in unrealised gains.

The BlackRock Institutional Sterling Liquidity Fund s objective is to maximise current income consistent with preservation of principal and liquidity. The Fund will only invest in high quality money market instruments, which consist of investments that have been awarded one of the two highest available short-term credit ratings by each recognised credit rating agency that has rated the instrument, or, if the instrument is not rated, it is of equivalent quality as determined by the investment manager of the Fund. 11 Creditors Amount payable for cancellation of units 100,320 22,499 Accrued expenses 74,874 75, ,194 97, Commitments and contingent assets or liabilities There were no commitments and contingent assets or liabilities at 30 June Related party transactions Sovereign Unit Trust Managers Limited, as manager of the Fund, is a related party and acts as principal in respect of all transactions of units and is the Registrar. National Westminster Bank Plc, as Trustee of the Fund, is a related party. Please refer to notes 3 and 6 of the financial statements where any amounts payable in respect of the fund administration are disclosed. 14 Risk management The Fund is principally directly exposed to market risk and in particular other price risk as explained in c) below. Market risk a) Currency risk All financial instruments are designated in sterling and therefore there is no direct exposure to currency risk. b) Interest rate risk The Fund is principally invested in a range of collective investment schemes that are not themselves interest bearing and so is not significantly exposed to direct interest rate risk.

13 Notes to the Financial Statements (continued) Floating rate financial assets 3,104,468 3,975,525 Financial assets not carrying interest 54,681,001 55,165,217 Financial liabilities not carrying interest (405,732) (359,986) 57,379,737 58,775,699 The non interest bearing financial assets are the investment in collective investment schemes, excluding sterling liquidity collective investment schemes, and current assets which do not have maturity dates. The floating rate financial assets comprise sterling denominated cash and bank balances (see note 10). Sterling denominated bank balances and overdrafts bear interest at the current Bank of England Bank Rate less 50 basis points for net credit positions and are charged at the current Bank of England Bank Rate plus 100 basis points for net overdrawn positions. c) Other price risk and sensitivity analysis The Fund is subject to other price risk as a result of its holdings in a range of collective investment schemes. This risk is managed by the careful management of the asset allocation to benchmarks and regular monitoring of the weighting of these funds in the portfolio. Other risk The Fund has minimal liquidity risk as it is invested in readily realisable collective investment schemes. These collective investment schemes have minimal credit risk in themselves and so the Fund is not significantly exposed to direct credit risk. 15 Fair value disclosure The fair value of the investment assets and liabilities of the Fund was determined as follows: Assets Liabilities Assets Liabilities Prices of recent transactions for identical instruments 54,601, ,029,617 0 Portfolio of investments 54,601, ,029,617 0 There are no investment assets and liabilities for which the fair value is based on a valuation technique using either observable market data or non-observable data. 16 Stamp duty reserve tax Prior to the 1st April 2014 where units were transferred back to the Manager, a charge to stamp duty reserve tax (SDRT) could occur, being a liability of the Trustee. The SDRT charge was reduced where units sold back to the Managers exceed sales to unitholders and also to the degree that the assets of a trust consist of bonds and direct holdings of foreign equities. The Manager, as permitted by the regulations, offset SDRT against the capital values of each trust. The anticipated charge was of the order of 0.5% for trusts invested primarily in UK equities held either directly or indirectly via a collective investment scheme of which they represent more than 20% by market value. It represented a negligible amount for those invested primarily in cash, bonds or in foreign equities held either directly or indirectly via a collective investment scheme of which no more than 20% by market value was represented by UK equities. Where units were transferred between unitholders for money or money s worth, SDRT was also applied. In these circumstances the Manager reserved the right not to re-register the units until the liability to SDRT was discharged by either the transferor or transferee. With effect from 1st April 2014 SDRT for UK funds was abolished.

14 17 Registration fee The current rate of registration fee will increase automatically once a year in line with inflation. Inflation is measured by the change in the Retail Price Index (RPI) at the end of each year. With effect from 1 March 2015 the registration fee was increased from to per policy for the Fund. 18 Units in issue All units in issue are classified as income units which pay distributions net of basic rate tax deducted. Opening number of units 102,303,407 Number of units issued 2,817,639 Number of units cancelled (9,171,636) Closing number of units 95,949,410 Statement of Manager s Responsibilities The Manager is responsible for the management of the Fund in accordance with its Trust Deed, Prospectus and the Financial Conduct Authority s Collective Investment Schemes Sourcebook (COLL) and Investment Funds Sourcebook (FUND).
