Management Discussion of Fund Performance Investment Objective and Strategies Investment Objective: Fidelity siastar Fund (Fund) aims to achieve long-term capital growth by investing primarily in equity securities of companies located in the sia-pacific region and in companies that derive a significant portion of their revenues from that region. Strategies: The portfolio manager examines each company s potential for success in light of its current financial condition, its industry position and economic and market conditions. The portfolio manager considers factors such as the value of the company relative to its market price and its growth and earnings potential. lthough the portfolio manager anticipates investing primarily in companies located in the sia-pacific region, the portfolio manager has the ability to invest in companies anywhere in the world. The portfolio manager may also choose to concentrate the Fund s investment in certain countries in the sia-pacific region, from time to time. The Fund may sometimes have significant exposure to relatively few companies, industries or countries or to one size of company. It may also hold a higher portion of securities that are illiquid than the other funds. It may hold cash and invest in fixed-income securities.. Risk The risks associated with investing in the Fund remain as discussed in the prospectus. ny changes to the Fund over the period have not affected the overall level of risk of the Fund. The Fund is suitable for long-term investors who want to gain exposure to companies in the sia- Pacific region and companies that derive a significant portion of their revenue from that region, can handle the volatility of returns generally associated with equity investments and are able to accept a medium to high level of risk. The suitability of the investment has not changed from what has been disclosed in the prospectus. Results of Operations Fidelity siastar Fund, Series B, returned -6.1%, after fees and expenses, for the one-year period ended March 31, The net returns of the other series of this Fund are similar to those of Series B, except for differences attributable to expense structures. Global equity markets, as broadly represented by the MSCI CWI (ll Country World Index) Index, returned -2.3% (in Canadian dollar terms) during the review period. Market overview: Global equities fell during the period amid concerns about the economic slowdown in China and the implications it would have for global growth. sian markets were the worst-performing markets; investors were worried about China s slowing economy and rising prospects of an increase in U.S. interest rates. European markets followed global equity markets, registering negative returns during the review period. The U.S. was among the best-performing markets, registering a positive return supported by encouraging economic data releases and news of central banks in Europe and China increasing their efforts to boost their weak economies. Canadian equities also declined, due to falling oil prices that drove down the stock prices of energy companies. The Fund underperformed the broad global equity index, primarily due to its holdings in Japan and India. dditionally, the Fund s lack of exposure to the U.S. market, in line with its mandate, detracted from relative performance. Factors affecting performance: The Fund s benchmark, the MSCI C (ll Country) sia Pacific Index, returned -7.8% for the one-year period under review. The Fund outperformed the benchmark, primarily due to its holdings in the materials and health care sectors. In the materials sector, positions in ustralia s mcor and South Korea s LG Chemical contributed to relative performance. In the health care sector, Japan s Ono Pharmaceutical and Hong Kong s Sino Biopharmaceutical made top contributions. In contrast, the Fund s holdings in the consumer staples sector detracted from relative performance, with top detractions made by BGF Retail in South Korea and Kao Corporation of Japan. t the end of the review period, the Fund did not having exposure to these stocks. Portfolio changes: 1

4 Fidelity siastar Fund Management Discussion of Fund Performance continued During the review period, the portfolio manager, Eileen Dibb, increased exposure to the consumer staples and health care sectors. In the consumer staples sector, the portfolio manager initiated positions in select food, beverage and tobacco companies, such as Japan Tobacco and Korea Tobacco & Ginseng Corporation, which fit her investment criteria of multi-year structural growth prospects and attractive valuations. In the health care sector, exposure was increased to Ono Pharmaceutical, owing to improved prospects for its key drug. In contrast, exposure was reduced to the industrials sector, by selling positions in IHI Corporation, due to a deteriorating growth outlook for the company. The portfolio manager also sold a position in KEPCO Plant Service and Engineering, because the increased costs for its overseas business are expected to weigh on its financial performance. The portfolio manager also reduced exposure to the information technology sector, by decreasing position in Murata Manufacturing; a slowdown in demand for smartphones is expected to weigh on the company s performance. She also exited a position in Lenovo Group, where declining earnings, along with its management s inability to address margin decline, is expected to weigh on performance. The country exposures of the Fund are a result of the portfolio manager s bottom-up stock picking. Recent Developments Portfolio manager Eileen Dibb remains positive about sian markets and continues to find attractive investment opportunities in the region. She suggests that while China s economy is still growing (albeit at a slower pace), it is now faced with the task of reducing excess capacity in key areas of the market, such as steel production and infrastructure development, and this is causing some headwinds. s a result, exporters to China such as Indonesia, Thailand, Singapore, Malaysia and Hong Kong have come under pressure and will likely continue to as demand from China slows. In addition, commodity price weakness and the slowdown in global growth have also dimmed the outlook for many countries in this region. Regardless, Ms. Dibb s focus on picking best-in-class companies driven by strong fundamentals and prospects for long-term secular growth enables her to navigate through market volatility. Moving forward, she is positive on the outlook of the region, despite near-term headwinds. Her focus on bottom-up stock selection should allow her to find opportunities in the region, especially where income growth and consumption levels are rising. t the end of the review period, the Fund had its largest absolute exposure to the consumer discretionary sector. The Fund deviated the most from the benchmark weightings by having a larger exposure to the health care sector and a lower exposure to the financials sector. In terms of country exposures, the Fund had a larger-than-benchmark exposure to Hong Kong and a smaller-than-benchmark exposure to ustralia. 2
