pro.en.xx.2151231.gb25162.pdf INSTITUTIONAL UK CORPORATE BOND FUND 31 DECEMBER 215 Approach and Style The fund invests primarily in sterling denominated investment grade corporate bonds. Emphasis is put on bottom up issuer selection and ensuring adequate diversity due to the asymmetric nature of corporate bond returns. The manager also retains a degree of flexibility to invest in outof index strategies as a means of adding performance but adherence to the investment objective remains imperative. The fund is managed according to Fidelity s active philosophy and approach to fixed income investing. This is teambased, but led by the Portfolio Manager to generate attractive riskadjusted returns through combining multiple, diversified investment positions advised by inhouse fundamental credit research, quantitative modelling and specialist traders. Fund Facts Fund launch date: 1.11. Portfolio manager: Ian Fishwick Appointed to fund: 1.8.7 Years at Fidelity: 9 Fund Size: 628m Fund reference currency: UK Sterling (GBP) Fund domicile: United Kingdom Fund legal structure: OEIC Management company: FIL Investment Services (UK) Limited Ongoing Charges Figure (OCF) per year:.42% (3.6.15) OCF takes into account annual management charge per year:.35% Objectives & Investment Policy Aims to provide income and capital growth. Obtains exposure primarily to nongovernment bonds. Has the freedom to invest outside the fund's principal geographies, market sectors, industries or asset classes. Investments may be made in relation to bonds issued in currencies other than the fund s denominated currency. Exposure to currencies may be hedged, for example with currency forward contracts. Can invest in relation to bonds issued by governments, companies and other bodies. The fund may make use of derivatives which are consistent with achieving the fund s objective. This may result in leverage by which we mean a level of exposure which could expose the fund to the potential of greater gains or losses than would otherwise be the case. The fund has discretion in its choices of investments within its objectives and policies. Income is reinvested in additional shares or paid to shareholders on request. Shares can usually be bought and sold each business day of the fund. This fund may not be appropriate for investors who plan to sell their shares in the fund within 5 years. Investment in the fund should be regarded as a longterm investment. Share Class Risk and Reward Profile This risk indicator is taken from the Key Investor Document (KIID) at the relevant monthend. Because it may be updated during a month, please refer to the KIID for the most uptodate information. The risk category was calculated using historical performance data. The risk category may not be a reliable indication of the future risk profile of the fund, is not guaranteed and may change over time. The lowest category does not mean a "risk free" investment. The risk and reward profile is classified by the level of historical fluctuation of the Net Asset Values of the share class, and within this classification, categories 12 indicate a low level of historical fluctuations, 35 a medium level and 67 a high level. Important Information Before investing you should read the Key Investor Information Document (KIID). Details of where the KIID is available are on the last page of this factsheet. The value of investments and any income from them may go down as well as up and an investor may not get back the amount invested. Where an investor's own currency is different to the currency of the fund's investments, the fund's returns can be affected by fluctuations in currency exchange rates. The use of financial derivative instruments may result in increased gains or losses within the fund. The price of bonds is influenced by movements in interest rates, changes in the credit rating of bond issuers, and other factors such as inflation and market dynamics. In general, as interest rates rise the price of a bond will fall (and vice versa). Bonds with a longer time to maturity are generally affected to a greater degree. The risk of default is based on the issuer's ability to make interest payments and to repay the loan at maturity. Default risk may therefore vary between different government issuers as well as between different corporate issuers. The investment policy of this fund means it can be more than 35% invested in Government and public securities. These can be issued or guaranteed by other countries and Governments. For a full list please refer to the fund's prospectus. This information is for Investment Professionals only and should not be relied upon by private investors.

pro.en.xx.2151231.gb25162.pdf INSTITUTIONAL UK CORPORATE BOND FUND 31 DECEMBER 215 Glossary Portfolio Characteristics Distribution Yield (%) The Distribution Yield reflects the amount of income that investors may expect to receive over the next twelve months as a percentage of the price of the fund on the date shown. It is based on a snapshot of the portfolio on that day. It is net of the fund s ongoing charges but does not include any entry charge. The Distribution Yield is gross of tax and investors may be subject to tax on distributions. Effective Duration Duration is a measure of sensitivity of the fund value to changes in interest rates. Effective duration is a duration calculation for bonds with embedded options (such as a call or a put option). It takes into account that expected cash flows will fluctuate as interest rates change and affect a bond s price. The effective duration of a fund is calculated by a market weighted sum of the effective duration of each individual instrument. The effect of derivatives such as bond futures and interest rate swaps are included in the calculation. Running Yield (%) Describes the income investors get from their portfolio as a percentage of market value of the securities. It should not be relied on as a measure of expected fund return (or distribution). Bonds with high probability of default are excluded from the calculation. The running yield does not reflect the total return over the life of the bond and takes no account of reinvestment risk (the uncertainty about the rate at which future cash flows can be reinvested) or the fact that bonds usually mature at par value, which can be an important component of a bond's return. The running yield does not include the impact of fees. Yield to Maturity (%) The Yield to Maturity (also known as the redemption yield) is the internal rate of return earned on a bond, assuming that the bond will be held until maturity and all coupon and principal payments will be made. It is an estimation of future return, as the rate at which coupon payments can be reinvested when received is unknown. The portfolio s redemption yield is the value weighted sum of the redemption yield of each individual instrument. The redemption yield is gross of the fund s charges and gross of tax. Average Maturity (Years) The marketweighted average maturity of bonds held in the portfolio. Perpetual bonds are assigned a maturity of 31 December 249. Derivatives are excluded from the calculation. Average Coupon (%) The coupon is the interest rate stated on a bond when it is issued. Average Coupon is the weighted average coupon of bonds held in the portfolio. Derivatives are excluded from the calculation. Spread Duration The sensitivity of the price of a bond to a change in its Option Adjusted Spread. Option Adjusted Spread (Basis Points) Option Adjusted Spread (OAS) measures the yield spread that is not directly attributable to the bond's characteristics. OAS is a measurement tool for evaluating price differences between similar bonds with different embedded options. A larger OAS implies a greater return for greater risks. Duration Times Spread (DTS) DTS is a measure of credit risk sensitivity that utilises credit spread and credit spread duration based on current market valuations. It is superior to spread duration as a standalone measure of credit risk because it recognises that securities with a higher spread tend to experience greater spread changes. The portfolio s DTS is the value weighted sum of the DTS of each individual instrument. Number of Holdings The number of bonds and derivatives held in the fund. Where the fund invests in another fund, it is counted as one holding. FX (foreign exchange) forwards are excluded. These are forward contracts that allow currency to be bought or sold at an agreed price on a future date. Number of Names The total number of individual issuers whose bonds are held in the fund. Since the fund will often hold more than one bond from an issuer, this figure is generally lower than the number of holdings. Average Credit Rating This is the weighted average of all the bond credit ratings in the fund, expressed using the industry standard letter system (ie AAA, BBB). It takes into account all investments in the fund, including derivatives. This measure gives an idea of how risky the fund s bonds are overall: the lower the average credit rating, the riskier the fund. 7
