MANAGER’S REPORT FUND OBJECTIVE AND POLICY What is the investment objective of the Fund? The Fund aims to achieve medium to long-term growth in both capital and income by investing in permissible Shariah-compliant investments. Has the Fund achieved its objective? The Fund’s objective of providing capital and income over the medium to long-term is still in place. Over 3 years and 5 years, the Fund has grown by 18.91% and 27.33% respectively. What are the Fund investment policy and principal investment strategy? The Fund aims to invest in a diversified portfolio of Shariah-compliant equities and Shariah-compliant fixed income investments. In line with its objective, the investment policy and strategy is to maintain a balanced portfolio between Shariah-compliant equities and Shariah-compliant fixed income investments in the ratio of 60:40. The fixed income portion of the Fund is to provide some capital stability to the Fund whilst the equity portion will provide the added return in a rising market. The investments by the Fund in Shariah-compliant equities shall not exceed 60% of the Net Asset Value ("NAV") of the Fund and investments in Shariah-compliant fixed income securities and Shariah-compliant liquid assets shall not be less than 40% of the NAV of the Fund with a minimum credit rating of “BBB3” or “P2” by RAM Ratings ("RAM") or equivalent rating by Malaysian Rating Corporation Berhad ("MARC") or by local rating agency(ies) of the country; “BBB” by Standard & Poor's ("S&P") or equivalent rating by Moody's or Fitch. The Fund may invest up to 25% of its NAV in unrated Shariah-compliant fixed income securities. At least 2% of the Fund's NAV will be invested in Shariah-compliant liquid assets. The Fund may opt to invest in Shariah-compliant foreign equities up to a maximum of 30% of its NAV. Such foreign equities must be of equity securities of companies domiciled in, listed in, and/or have significant operations in countries in Asia Pacific ex Japan. 'Significant operations' means major businesses of the company. For example, the Fund can invest in a company with significant business and/or operations in Thailand but listed on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”). The threshold for 'significant operations' would be if more than 30% of total group revenue derives from countries in Asia Pacific ex Japan. The calculation would be based on the most recent financial reports released by the companies (e.g. interim and annual reports). Fund category/type Balanced (Shariah-compliant)/Growth and Income How long should you invest for? Recommended three (3) years or more Indication of short-term risk (low, moderate, high) Moderate When was the Fund launched? 8 March 2001 What was the size of the Fund as at 31 March 2016? RM378.07 million (777.20 million units) What is the Fund’s benchmark? 30% Financial Times Stock Exchange (“FTSE”) Bursa Malaysia EMAS Shariah (“FBMS”) Index + 30% Morgan Stanley Capital International All Country (“MSCI AC”) Asia ex Japan Islamic Index + 40% CIMB Islamic 1-month General Investment Account-i (“GIA”) Note: The benchmark is customised as such to align it closer to the structure of the portfolio and the objective of the Fund. The 1-Month GIA Rate is reflective of the objective of the Fund. Thus, investors are cautioned that the risk profile of the Fund is higher than investing in Shariah-compliant deposits.

MARKET REVIEW (1 OCTOBER 2015 TO 31 MARCH 2016) Regional Equity The financial period from October 2015 to March 2016 has been turbulent for Asian markets. During the financial period under review, the MSCI AC Asia ex Japan Islamic Index rose by 7.0%. However, in Malaysian Ringgit (“MYR”) terms, the benchmark fell 5.4% primarily due to the strengthening of the MYR versus other currencies. Asian markets started the financial period with a rally after central banks around the world cut interest rates. In particular, Chinese equities listed in Hong Kong rallied massively in April 2015 with the trigger being the announcement on 27 March 2015 to broaden access to the southbound link for China funds. Due to tight domestic liquidity conditions, the People’s Bank of China (“PBOC”) cut the Reserve Requirement Ratio (“RRR”) by a larger than expected 100 basis points (“bps”) on 19 April 2015. The Shanghai Stock Exchange Composite Index peaked at 5,166 points on 12 June 2015. It then fell 17% in June 2015 due to a combination of an over-extended market, unwinding of margin financing and liquidity being drained by large Initial Public Offering ("IPOs"). The sell-off in China spilled over to the large North Asian markets like Hong Kong, Korea and Taiwan. Asian equities fell 2% in the month of June 2015. Asian markets experienced deeper correction in the month of July 2015. The Chinese market continued to sell-off despite a frenzy of government measures. Other Asian markets also sold off in sympathy, partly due to worries over possible impact of slowing China economic growth. Asian markets continued to fall sharply in August 2015 led by faster than expected deceleration in China’s economy, which also led to 3% devaluation in the Chinese Yuan Renminbi (“CNY”). The sell-off narrowed to -4% in the month of September 2015 as investors de-risked on concerns over disinflationary pressures and a slowdown in global growth.

MARKET REVIEW (1 OCTOBER 2015 TO 31 MARCH 2016) (CONTINUED) Regional Equity (continued) Asian markets rallied 12% in October 2015 on the back of the US Federal Reserve (the “Fed”)’s decision to keep rates on hold and weak US payroll data during the month. The rally was also exaggerated by the overly bearish positioning of global funds after 4 straight months of decline. However, Asian markets fell 2.7% in the following month on the back of rising geopolitical tensions between Turkey and Russia, terror attacks in Paris and was flat after the Fed rate hike in December 2015. Asian markets went through a sharp correction in the month of January 2016 after the introduction of circuit breakers in China accelerated the selling from the first day of the year. This led to new fears of capital controls in China. Sentiment towards China recovered and coupled with a dovish Fed statement, Asian markets rallied 10% in March 2016. This also led to a rebound of commodity prices from their lows in January 2016 and also the strengthening Asian currencies versus the US Dollar (“USD”). Local Equity Overall, the FBMS Index rose by 5.1% to 12,498 points during the financial period under review. In October 2015, the market was lifted by the Fed’s dovish tones on rate hike, as well as the European Central Bank (“ECB”) hint that it could extend easing. China’s willingness for policy support also encouraged market stability and prompted some fund flows back into Emerging Markets (“EM”). This extended to November 2015, where news about the sale of Edra Global Energy Berhad’s power assets to the Chinese, as well as China’s commitment to buy Malaysian bonds helped support sentiment. December 2015 was a volatile month. Oil prices dipped after the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (“OPEC”) refrained from setting an official output target. Meanwhile, the much debated Fed’s liftoff finally happened as interest rates were raised by 25 bps. Equities had a rocky start in 2016. The FBMS Index ended the month of January 2016 at 12,420 points, a loss of 2.97% from the previous month. Oil prices and worries about China’s economic health were in focus at the start of the year. Oil prices dropped to the lowest level in 12 years as turmoil in China’s markets pushed crude oil closer to USD30 per barrel on concern that the economic slowdown in China is worsening. The MYR rose to a 3-month high after Prime Minister Najib Razak announced measures to shore up the economy. He maintained the fiscal deficit target in the budget revisions while lowering employee state pension contributions. 2016 growth forecasts were trimmed to between 4.0%-4.5% from 4.0%-5.0% and the assumption price of oil cut to USD30 to USD35 per barrel from USD48 per barrel. In February 2016, the FBMS Index continued its downtrend. The market continued to be roiled by fluctuating oil prices despite co-ordinated actions by Saudi Arabia, Russia, Qatar and Venezuela to hold output steady at January 2016 levels. Comments from the Fed that they would not rush to increase rates in the face of global market turmoil failed to stem a sell-off in risk assets. Malaysia’s fourth quarter of 2015 real Gross Domestic Product (“GDP”) growth slowed for the 3rd consecutive quarter to 4.5% year-on-year (“y-o-y”). Full year 2015 growth moderated to 5.0%. The FBMS Index ended the month of March 2016 at 12,498 points, a gain of 2.0% from the previous month. The market was in risk-on mode in March 2016 on the back of comments from the Fed that it would “proceed cautiously in adjusting policy”. The MYR appreciated against the USD, gaining 7.2% month-on-month (“m-o-m”) to settle at RM3.8995 against the USD.

MARKET REVIEW (1 OCTOBER 2015 TO 31 MARCH 2016) (CONTINUED) Local Sukuk Market players turned cautious in the fourth quarter of 2015 as the Fed signaled that it may hike its interest rate in December 2015, leading to a spike in sovereign yields. However, January 2016 saw the Government Investment Issues (“GII”) rally as investors took up positions after staying sidelined at the end of 2015. Demand for sovereign issues extended out the curve, as investors searched for relative yield pickup after Bank Negara Malaysia (“BNM”) cut the Statutory Reserve Requirement (“SRR”). This is the first time since 2009 that BNM has decided to cut the amount of cash that banks must set aside as reserves. A reduction in SRR means a certain amount of liquidity will be injected into the financial system, which is expected to be used by banks to finance more economic activities in the market. Trading volume for corporate Sukuk was robust during the financial period under review. Most of the trades were focused at Government-Guaranteed (“GG”), AAA and AA rated Sukuk. BNM reiterated that the stance of monetary policy remains accommodative and supportive of economic activity. Assessment on the global and domestic economy has turned more cautious as BNM highlighted increased downside risks to domestic growth outlook. BNM believes that recovery in the advanced economies has not been as strong as earlier expected and that growth in emerging economies has slowed. The latest statement also highlighted heightened financial market volatility poses additional downside risk to global growth. FUND PERFORMANCE

As at 31 March 2016, local equity exposure was maintained at 29.34%, while the foreign equity exposure was reduced to 27.20% from 29.56% a year ago. On the other hand, Sukuk exposure increased to 36.32% from last year’s 31.03%, which was in line with our strategy of positioning the Fund defensively amidst the cautious view on the Asian market. MARKET OUTLOOK* Regional Equity The change in the Fed’s view towards being more dovish has brought about a halt in USD strength and triggered a ‘reversion’ rally in EM assets. We expect this risk-taking sentiment to persist for a few months, buoying Asian fixed income and normalizing returns of oversold currencies. With inflation in check, the short term investment theme will focus on the search for higher yielding assets. However, beyond the short term rally, Asia will have to demonstrate higher productivity and economic growth than that seen in developing market, in order to have a longer term return of strong capital flows into the region. We continue to view 2016 as a year of slow global growth, low inflation and elevated volatility. Local Equity

In the short term, we believe that the FBMS Index should have a positive bias based on the following: i) Capital flows will continue to seek refuge in defensive higher yielding countries like Malaysia especially in an environment where negative yields persist in the Europe and Japan; ii) Earnings momentum, although negative, is bottoming and expectations are more realistic than a year ago; and iii) Malaysia is cheap from a USD perspective based on price to book (1.7 times currently versus 2.1 times on a 5-year average). Local Sukuk There is growing scepticism about the Fed's ability to raise interest rates again this year given the mixed bag of US domestic economic figures together with lingering worries about weak global growth and the absence of a broad deal among major oil producers to control output. In addition, the recent Bank of Japan’s (“BOJ”) adoption of negative interest rate and the RRR cut by PBOC which signaled intensified policy easing added another piece of dovish news to the market. The local sovereign yields have moved lower over the last few months. In the absence of additional catalysts, we expect sovereign yields to trade range bound on the back of steady domestic institutional demand. In the primary issuance space, corporate Sukuk supply pipeline is expected to remain active. We expect the sentiment for corporate Sukuk market will continue to be well supported with investors continue to look at secondary offerings to fill up their portfolios. *This market outlook does not constitute an offer, invitation, commitment, advice or recommendation to make a purchase of any investment.

INVESTMENT STRATEGY Regional Equity We remain neutral on Asian equities. Beyond the expected near-term increase in risk appetite, Asian equities will continue to struggle against poor corporate earnings amidst a lack of growth opportunities. Our portfolios are fully invested, with our research efforts focused on identifying companies which could benefit from the next industrial revolution, infrastructure spending, or capital expenditure (“CAPEX”) cuts. Local Equity As part of risk management, we continue to reduce our exposure to selective Exporters. We believe large caps currently offer more value than small caps. We remain neutral in Plantation, but underweight for Telecommunications sector. Construction remains a sector which we continue to overweight as we believe the government will continue to roll out more high impact infrastructure projects. Local Sukuk We continue to overweight on corporate Sukuk with focus on the primary issuances which offer better yield pickup. We will also invest in lower rated corporate Sukuk issuances for yield enhancement but remain selective as downgrades and defaults on credit market are expected to rise in the near term. UNIT HOLDINGS STATISTICS Breakdown of unit holdings by size as at 31 March 2016 are as follows:

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE SIX MONTHS FINANCIAL PERIOD ENDED 31 MARCH 2016 1. THE FUND, THE MANAGER AND ITS PRINCIPAL ACTIVITY

CIMB Islamic Balanced Fund (the “Fund”) is governed by a Master Deed dated 15 May 2008, a Fourth Supplemental Master Deed dated 25 June 2008, a Sixth Supplemental Master Deed dated 14 July 2008, a Seventh Supplemental Master Deed dated 19 November 2008, a Fourteenth Supplemental Master Deed dated 26 June 2012 and a Seventeenth Supplemental Master Deed dated 25 March 2015 (collectively referred to as "the Deeds"), between, CIMB-Principal Asset Management Berhad (the “Manager”) and Universal Trustee (Malaysia) Berhad (the “Trustee”). The Fund aims to invest in a diversified portfolio of Shariah-compliant equities and Shariah-compliant fixed income investments. In line with its objective, the investment policy and strategy is to maintain a balanced portfolio between Shariah-compliant equities and Shariah-compliant fixed income investments in the ratio of 60:40. The fixed income portion of the Fund is to provide some capital stability to the Fund whilst the equity portion will provide the added return in a rising market. The investments by the Fund in Shariah-compliant equities shall not exceed 60% of the NAV of the Fund and investments in Shariah-compliant fixed income securities and Shariah-compliant liquid assets shall not be less than 40% of the NAV of the Fund with a minimum credit rating of “BBB3” or “P2” by RAM or equivalent rating by MARC or by local rating agency(ies) of the country; “BBB” by S&P or equivalent rating by Moody's or Fitch. The Fund may invest up to 25% of its NAV in unrated Shariah-compliant fixed income securities. At least 2% of the Fund's NAV will be invested in Shariah-compliant liquid assets. The Fund may opt to invest in Shariah-compliant foreign equities up to a maximum of 30% of its NAV. Such foreign equities must be of equity securities of companies domiciled in, listed in, and/or have significant operations in countries in Asia Pacific ex Japan. 'Significant operations' means major businesses of the company. For example, the Fund can invest in a company with significant business and/or operations in Thailand but listed on the NYSE. The threshold for 'significant operations' would be if more than 30% of total group revenue derives from countries in Asia Pacific ex Japan. The calculation would be based on the most recent financial reports released by the companies (e.g. interim and annual reports). All investments will be subjected to the Securities Commission Malaysia ("SC") Guidelines on Unit Trust Funds, SC requirements, the Deeds, except where exemptions or variations have been approved by the SC, internal policies and procedures and the Fund’s objective. The Manager, a company incorporated in Malaysia, is a subsidiary of CIMB Group Sdn Bhd and regards CIMB Group Holdings Berhad as its ultimate holding company. The Manager is also an associate of Principal International (Asia) Limited, which is a subsidiary of Principal Financial Group Inc. The principal activities of the Manager are the establishment and management of unit trust funds and fund management activities.

2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The following accounting policies have been used consistently in dealing with items which are considered material in relation to the financial statements:

(a) Basis of preparation

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the provisions of the

MFRS and International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”). The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, as

modified by financial assets at fair value through profit or loss.

CIMB ISLAMIC BALANCED FUND

18

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

(a) Basis of preparation (continued) The preparation of financial statements in conformity with MFRS and IFRS requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported financial period. It also requires the Manager to exercise their judgment in the process of applying the Fund’s accounting policies. Although these estimates and judgment are based on the Manager’s best knowledge of current events and actions, actual results may differ.

The areas involving a higher degree of judgment or complexity, or areas where estimates and assumptions are significant to the financial statements are disclosed in Note 2(k). Standards, amendments to published standards and interpretations to existing standards that are effective: The Fund has applied the following amendments for the first time for the financial year beginning 1 October 2015: • Annual Improvements to MFRS 2010 – 2012 Cycle • Annual Improvements to MFRS 2011 – 2013 Cycle The adoption of these amendments did not have any impact on the current financial period or any prior period and is not likely to affect future periods. The standards, amendments to published standards and interpretations to existing standards that are applicable to the Fund but not yet effective and have not been early adopted are as follows:

(i) Financial year beginning on/after 1 October 2016

• Amendments to MFRS 101 “Presentation of financial statements - Disclosure Initiative” (effective from 1 January 2016) provide clarifications on a number of issues, including:

Materiality – an entity should not aggregate or disaggregate information in a manner that obscures useful information. Where items are material, sufficient information must be provided to explain the impact on the financial position or performance. Disaggregation and subtotals – line items specified in MFRS 101 may need to be disaggregated where this is relevant to an understanding of the entity’s financial position or performance. There is also new guidance on the use of subtotals.

Notes – confirmation that the notes do not need to be presented in a particular order. Other comprehensive income (“OCI”) arising from investments accounted for under the equity method - the share of OCI arising from equity-accounted investments is grouped based on whether the items will or will not subsequently be reclassified to profit or loss.

CIMB ISLAMIC BALANCED FUND

19

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

(a) Basis of preparation (continued)

(i) Financial year beginning on/after 1 October 2016 (continued)

Each group should then be presented as a single line item in the statement of other comprehensive income.

According to the transitional provisions, the disclosures in MFRS 108 regarding the adoption of new standards/accounting policies are not required for these amendments.

• Annual Improvements to MFRS 2012 – 2014 Cycle (effective from 1 January 2016)

As these amendments merely clarify the existing requirements, they do not affect the Fund’s accounting policies or any of the disclosures.

(ii) Financial year beginning on/after 1 October 2017 MFRS 15 ‘Revenue from Contracts with Customers’ (effective from 1 January

2017) replaces MFRS 118 ‘Revenue’ and MFRS 111 ‘Construction contracts’ and related interpretations. The standard deals with revenue recognition and establishes principles for reporting useful information to users of financial statements about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from an entity’s contracts with customers. Revenue is recognised when a customer obtains control of a good or service and thus has the ability to direct the use and obtain the benefits from the good or service. The core principle in MFRS 15 is that an entity recognises revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to the customer in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The Fund will apply this standard when effective. This standard is not expected to have a significant impact on the Fund’s financial statements.

(iii) Financial year beginning on/after 1 October 2018

MFRS 9 “Financial Instruments” (effective from 1 January 2018) will replace MFRS 139 “Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement”. The complete version of MFRS 9 was issued in November 2014. MFRS 9 retains but simplifies the mixed measurement model in MFRS 139 and establishes three primary measurement categories for financial assets: amortised cost, fair value through profit or loss and fair value through OCI. The basis of classification depends on the entity’s business model and the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial asset. Investments in equity instruments¹ are always measured at fair value through profit or loss with an irrevocable option at inception to present changes in fair value in OCI (provided the instrument is not held for trading). A debt instrument² is measured at amortised cost only if the entity is holding it to collect contractual cash flows and the cash flows represent principal and interest³.

¹ For the purposes of the investments made by the Fund, equity instruments and derivatives refers to Shariah-compliant equity instruments and Shariah-compliant derivatives.

² For the purposes of the investments made by the Fund, debt instruments refers to Sukuk. ³ For the purposes of this Fund, interest refers to profits earned from Shariah-compliant investments.

CIMB ISLAMIC BALANCED FUND

20

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

(a) Basis of preparation (continued)

(iii) Financial year beginning on/after 1 October 2018 (continued) For liabilities, the standard retains most of the MFRS 139 requirements. These include amortised cost accounting for most financial liabilities, with bifurcation of embedded derivatives¹. The main change is that, in cases where the fair value option is taken for financial liabilities, the part of a fair value change due to an entity’s own credit risk is recorded in OCI rather than the income statement, unless this creates an accounting mismatch. MFRS 9 introduces an expected credit loss model on impairment that replaces the incurred loss impairment model used in MFRS 139. The expected credit loss model is forward-looking and eliminates the need for a trigger event to have occurred before credit losses are recognised. The Fund will apply this standard when effective. This standard is not expected to have a significant impact on the Fund’s financial statements.

(b) Financial assets and financial liabilities Classification

The Fund designates its investments in Shariah-compliant collective investment scheme, Shariah-compliant quoted securities and unquoted Sukuk as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss at inception. Financial assets are designated at fair value through profit or loss when they are managed and their performance evaluated on a fair value basis. Financing and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market and have been included in current assets. The Fund’s financing and receivables comprise cash and cash equivalents, amount due from stockbrokers, amount due from Manager and dividends receivable. Financial liabilities are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into and the definitions of a financial liability. The Fund classifies amount due to stockbrokers, amount due to Manager, accrued management fee, amount due to Trustee, distribution payable, provision for donation to charitable bodies, and other payables and accruals as other financial liabilities.

Recognition and measurement

Regular purchases and sales of financial assets are recognised on the trade-date, the date on which the Fund commits to purchase or sell the asset. Shariah-compliant investments are initially recognised at fair value. Transaction costs are expensed in the statement of comprehensive income.

Financial liabilities, within the scope of MFRS 139, are recognised in the statement of financial position when, and only when, the Fund becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the financial instrument.

¹ For the purposes of the investments made by the Fund, equity instruments and derivatives refers to Shariah-

compliant equity instruments and Shariah-compliant derivatives. ² For the purposes of the investments made by the Fund, debt instruments refers to Sukuk. ³ For the purposes of this Fund, interest refers to profits earned from Shariah-compliant investments.

CIMB ISLAMIC BALANCED FUND

21

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

(b) Financial assets and financial liabilities (continued)

Recognition and measurement (continued) Financial assets are derecognised when the rights to receive cash flows from the Shariah-compliant investments have expired or have been transferred and the Fund has transferred substantially all risks and rewards of ownership. Financial liabilities are derecognised when it is extinguished, i.e. when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged or cancelled or expired. Unrealised gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of the financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are presented in the statement of comprehensive income with net gain or loss on financial assets at fair value through profit or loss in the financial period which they arise.

Dividend income from financial assets at fair value through profit or loss is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income as part of gross dividend income when the Fund’s right to receive payments is established.

Shariah-compliant collective investment scheme is valued based on the most recent published NAV per unit or share of such Shariah-compliant collective investment scheme or, if unavailable, the last published price of such unit or share (excluding any sales charge included in such selling price).

Shariah-compliant quoted securities in Malaysia are valued at the last done market price quoted on Bursa Malaysia Securities Berhad (“Bursa Securities”) at the date of the statement of financial position. Foreign quoted investments are valued at the last traded market price quoted on the respective foreign stock exchanges at the close of the business day of the respective foreign stock exchanges.

If a valuation based on the market price does not represent the fair value of the investments, for example during abnormal market conditions or when no market price is available, including in the event of a suspension in the quotation of the investments for a period exceeding 14 days, or such shorter period as agreed by the Trustee, then the investments are valued as determined in good faith by the Manager, based on the methods or bases approved by the Trustee after appropriate technical consultation. Unquoted Sukuk denominated in Ringgit Malaysia (“RM”) are revalued on a daily basis based on fair value prices quoted by a Bond Pricing Agency (“BPA”) registered with the SC as per the SC Guidelines on Unit Trust Funds. Refer to Note 2(k) for further explanation. Shariah-compliant deposits with licensed Islamic financial institutions are stated at cost plus accrued profit calculated on the effective profit method over the period from the date of placement to the date of maturity of the respective deposits. Financing and receivables and other financial liabilities are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective profit method. Impairment for assets carried at amortised costs For assets carried at amortised cost, the Fund assesses at the end of the reporting period whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset or group of financial assets is impaired.

CIMB ISLAMIC BALANCED FUND

22

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

(b) Financial assets and financial liabilities (continued)

Impairment for assets carried at amortised costs (continued) A financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired and impairment losses are incurred only if there is objective evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the asset (a ‘loss event’) and that loss event (or events) has an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset or group of financial assets that can be reliably estimated. The amount of the loss is measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows (excluding future credit losses that have not been incurred) discounted at the financial asset’s original effective profit rate. The asset’s carrying amount is reduced and the amount of the loss is recognised in statement of comprehensive income. If ‘financing and receivables’ has a variable profit rate, the discount rate for measuring any impairment loss is the current effective profit rate determined under the contract. As a practical expedient, the Fund may measure impairment on the basis of an instrument’s fair value using an observable market price.

If, in a subsequent financial period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognised (such as an improvement in the debtor’s credit rating), the reversal of the previously recognised impairment loss is recognised in statement of comprehensive income. When an asset is uncollectible, it is written off against the related allowance account. Such assets are written off after all the necessary procedures have been completed and the amount of the loss has been determined.

(c) Income recognition

Dividend income is recognised on the ex-dividend date when the right to receive payment is established.

Profit income from Shariah-compliant deposits with licensed Islamic financial

institutions and unquoted Sukuk are recognised on a time proportionate basis using the effective profit rate method on an accrual basis.

Realised gain or loss on disposal of Shariah-compliant collective investment scheme

and Shariah-compliant quoted securities are accounted for as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of Shariah-compliant quoted securities, determined on a weighted average cost basis.

Realised gain or loss on disposal of unquoted Sukuk is accounted for as the difference

between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of unquoted Sukuk, determined on cost adjusted for accretion of discount or amortisation of premium.

(d) Foreign currency Functional and presentation currency Items included in the financial statements of the Fund are measured using the

currency of the primary economic environment in which the Fund operates (the “functional currency”). The financial statements are presented RM, which is the Fund’s functional and presentation currency.

CIMB ISLAMIC BALANCED FUND

23

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

(d) Foreign currency (continued) Transactions and balances Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the

exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions or valuation where items are remeasured. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation at period-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in statement of comprehensive income, except when deferred in OCI as qualifying cash flow hedges.

(e) Cash and cash equivalents

For the purpose of statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents comprise bank

balances and Shariah-compliant deposits held in highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

(f) Taxation Current tax expense is determined according to Malaysian tax laws at the current rate

based upon the taxable profit earned during the financial period. Tax on dividend income from foreign Shariah-compliant quoted securities is based on

the tax regime of the respective countries that the Fund invests in.

(g) Amount due from/to stockbrokers

Amounts due from and amount due to stockbrokers represent receivables for Shariah-compliant investments sold and payables for Shariah-compliant investments purchased that have been contracted for but not yet settled or delivered on the statement of financial position date respectively. These amounts are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective profit method, less provision for impairment for amounts due from stockbrokers. A provision for impairment of amounts due from stockbrokers is established when there is objective evidence that the Fund will not be able to collect all amounts due from the relevant stockbroker. Significant financial difficulties of the stockbroker, probability that the stockbroker will enter bankruptcy or financial reorganisation, and default in payments are considered indicators that the amount due from stockbrokers is impaired. Once a financial asset or a group of similar financial assets has been written down as a result of an impairment loss, profit income is recognised using the profit rate used to discount the future cash flows for the purpose of measuring the impairment loss.

(h) Transaction costs Transaction costs are costs incurred to acquire or dispose financial assets or liabilities

at fair value through profit or loss. They include fees and commissions paid to agents, advisors, brokers and dealers. Transaction costs, when incurred, are immediately recognised in the statement of comprehensive income as expenses.

CIMB ISLAMIC BALANCED FUND

24

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

(i) Unit holders’ capital

The unit holders’ contributions to the Fund meet the criteria to be classified as equity

instruments under MFRS 132 “Financial Instruments: Presentation”. Those criteria include:

the units entitle the holder to a proportionate share of the Fund’s NAV;

the units are the most subordinated class and class features are identical;

there is no contractual obligations to deliver cash or another financial asset other than the obligation on the Fund to repurchase; and

the total expected cash flows from the units over its life are based substantially on the profit or loss of the Fund.

The outstanding units are carried at the redemption amount that is payable at each

financial period if unit holder exercises the right to put the unit back to the Fund.

Units are created and cancelled at prices based on the Fund’s NAV per unit at the time of creation or cancellation. The Fund’s NAV per unit is calculated by dividing the net assets attributable to unit holders with the total number of outstanding units.

(j) Segment information Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting used by the chief operating decision-maker. The chief operating decision-maker is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments.

(k) Critical accounting estimates and judgments in applying accounting policies

The Fund makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates will, by definition, rarely equal the related actual results. To enhance the information content of the estimates, certain key variables that are anticipated to have material impact to the Funds’ results and financial position are tested for sensitivity to changes in the underlying parameters.

Estimates and judgment are continually evaluated by the Manager and are based on

historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.

Estimate of fair value of unquoted Sukuk

In undertaking any of the Fund’s Shariah-compliant investment, the Manager will

ensure that all assets of the Fund under management will be valued appropriately, that is at fair value and in compliance with the SC Guidelines on Unit Trust Funds.

Ringgit-denominated unquoted Sukuk are valued using fair value prices quoted by a

BPA. Where the Manager is of the view that the price quoted by BPA for a specific unquoted Sukuk differs from the market price by more than 20 bps, the Manager may use market price, provided that the Manager records its basis for using a non-BPA price, obtains necessary internal approvals to use the non-BPA price, and keeps an audit trail of all decisions and basis for adopting the use of non-BPA price.

3. RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES

The investment objective of the Fund is to achieve medium to long-term growth in both capital and income by investing in permissible Shariah-compliant investments. The Fund is exposed to a variety of risks which include market risk (inclusive of price risk, interest rate risk and currency risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. Financial risk management is carried out through internal control process adopted by the Manager and adherence to the investment restrictions as stipulated in the Deeds and SC Guidelines on Unit Trust Funds. (a) Market risk

(i) Price risk

This is the risk that the fair value of a Shariah-compliant investment in quoted securities and unquoted Sukuk will fluctuate because of changes in market prices (other than those arising from interest rate risk and currency risk). The value of Shariah-compliant investments may fluctuate according to the activities of individual companies, sector and overall political and economic conditions. Such fluctuation may cause the Fund's NAV and prices of units to fall as well as rise, and income produced by the Fund may also fluctuate. The price risk is managed through diversification and selection of Shariah-compliant collective investment scheme, Shariah-compliant quoted securities, unquoted Sukuk and other financial instruments within specified limits according to the Deeds.

(ii) Interest rate risk In general, when interest rates rise, unquoted Sukuk prices will tend to fall and vice versa. Therefore, the NAV of the Fund may also tend to fall when interest rates rise or are expected to rise. However, investors should be aware that should the Fund holds an unquoted Sukuk till maturity, such price fluctuations would dissipate as it approaches maturity, and thus the growth of the NAV shall not be affected at maturity. In order to mitigate interest rates exposure of the Fund, the Manager will manage the duration of the portfolio via shorter or longer tenured assets depending on the view of the future interest rate trend of the Manager, which is based on its continuous fundamental research and analysis. Investors should note that the movement in prices of unquoted Sukuk and Shariah-compliant money market instruments are benchmarked against interest rates. As such, the investments are exposed to the movement of the interest rates. However, it does not in any way suggest that this Fund will invest in conventional financial instruments. All investment carried out for the Fund including placements and deposits are in accordance with Shariah. This risk is crucial since unquoted Sukuk portfolio management depends on forecasting interest rate movements. Prices of unquoted Sukuk move inversely to interest rate movements, therefore as interest rates rise, the prices of unquoted Sukuk decrease and vice versa. Furthermore, unquoted Sukuk with longer maturity and lower yield profit rates are more susceptible to interest rate movements.

3. RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES (CONTINUED)

(a) Market risk (continued)

(ii) Interest rate risk (continued)

Such investments may be subject to unanticipated rise in interest rates which may impair the ability of the issuers to meet the obligation under the instrument, especially if the issuers are highly leveraged. An increase in interest rates may therefore increase the potential for default by an issuer.

(iii) Currency risk

Currency risk of the Fund is associated with Shariah-compliant investments that are quoted and/or priced in foreign currency denomination. Foreign currency risk is the risk that the value of financial instruments will fluctuate due to changes in foreign exchange rates. The Manager will evaluate the likely directions of a foreign currency versus RM based on considerations of economic fundamentals such as interest rate differentials, balance of payments position, debt levels, and technical chart considerations.

(b) Credit risk

Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligation resulting in financial loss to the Fund. Investment in unquoted Sukuk may involve a certain degree of credit/default risk with regards to the issuers. Generally, credit risk or default risk is the risk of loss due to the issuer’s non-payment or untimely payment of the investment amount as well as the returns on investment. This will cause a decline in value of the defaulted unquoted Sukuk and subsequently depress the NAV of the Fund. Usually credit risk is more apparent for an investment with a longer tenure, i.e. the longer the duration, the higher the credit risk. Credit risk can be managed by performing continuous fundamental credit research and analysis to ascertain the creditworthiness of its issuer. In addition, the Manager imposes a minimum rating requirement as rated by either local and/or foreign rating agencies and manages the duration of the investment in accordance with the objective of the Fund. For this Fund, the Sukuk investment must satisfy a minimum rating requirement of at least “BBB3” or “P2” by RAM or equivalent rating by MARC or by local rating agency(ies) of the country; “BBB” by S&P or equivalent rating by Moody's or Fitch.

The credit risk arising from placements of Shariah-compliant deposits in licensed Islamic financial institutions is managed by ensuring that the Fund will only place Shariah-compliant deposits in reputable licensed Islamic financial institutions. The settlement terms of the proceeds from the creation of units receivable from the Manager are governed by the SC Guidelines on Unit Trust Funds. For amount due from stockbrokers, the settlement terms are governed by the relevant rules and regulations as prescribed by respective stock exchanges. The credit risk is minimal as all transactions in Shariah-compliant quoted securities are settled/paid upon delivery using approved stockbrokers.

3. RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES (CONTINUED)

(c) Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Fund will encounter difficulty in meeting its financial obligations. The Manager manages this risk by maintaining sufficient level of liquid assets to meet anticipated payments and cancellations of the units by unit holders. Liquid assets comprise bank balances and Shariah-compliant deposits with licensed Islamic financial institutions and other instruments, which are capable of being converted into cash within 7 business days. Generally, all investments are subject to a certain degree of liquidity risk depending on the nature of the investment instruments, market, sector and other factors. For the purpose of the Fund, the Manager will attempt to balance the entire portfolio by investing in a mix of assets with satisfactory trading volume and those that occasionally could encounter poor liquidity. This is expected to reduce the risks for the entire portfolio without limiting the Fund’s growth potentials.

(d) Fair value estimation Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (i.e. an exit price). The fair value of financial assets traded in active markets (such as trading securities) are based on quoted market prices at the close of trading on the financial period end date. The Fund utilises the last traded market price for financial assets where the last traded price falls within the bid-ask spread. In circumstances where the last traded price is not within the bid-ask spread, the Manager will determine the point within the bid-ask spread that is most representative of the fair value. An active market is a market in which transactions for the asset or liability take place with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. The fair value of financial assets that are not traded in an active market is determined by using valuation techniques. Fair value hierarchy (i) The table below analyses financial instruments carried at fair value. The

different levels have been defined as follows:

Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active market for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1)

Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (that is, as prices) or indirectly (that is, derived from prices) (Level 2)

Inputs for the asset and liability that are not based on observable market data (that is, unobservable inputs) (Level 3)

The level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement is categorised in its entirety is determined on the basis of the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. For this purpose, the significance of an input is assessed against the fair value measurement in its entirety.

3. RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES (CONTINUED)

(d) Fair value estimation (continued)

Fair value hierarchy (continued)

If a fair value measurement uses observable inputs that require significant adjustment based on unobservable inputs, that measurement is a Level 3 measurement. Assessing the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, considering factors specific to the asset or liability. The determination of what constitutes ‘observable’ requires significant judgment by the Fund. The Fund considers observable data to be that market data that is readily available, regularly distributed or updated, reliable and verifiable, not proprietary, and provided by independent sources that are actively involved in the relevant market.

Shariah-compliant investments which values are based on quoted market prices in active markets, and are therefore classified within Level 1, include Shariah-compliant collective investment scheme and Shariah-compliant quoted securities. The Fund does not adjust the quoted prices for these instruments. The Fund’s policies on valuation of these financial assets are stated in Note 2(b). Financial instruments that trade in markets that are not considered to be active but are valued based on quoted market prices, dealer quotations or alternative pricing sources supported by observable inputs are classified within Level 2. This includes unquoted Sukuk. As Level 2 instruments include positions that are not traded in active markets and/or are subject to transfer restrictions, valuations may be adjusted to reflect illiquidity and/or non-transferability, which are generally based on available market information. The Fund’s policies on valuation of these financial assets are stated in Note 2(b).

(ii) The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, amount due from

stockbrokers, amount due from Manager, dividends receivable and all current liabilities are a reasonable approximation of their fair values due to their short term nature.
