Emerging Market Equities: OutlookDespite lower levels of global growth, most major EM economies remain on course to sustain their long term structural growth path

Structural growth potential driven by demographics, urbanisation, productivity and consumption growth

Sound balance sheets– On average low debt levels at government.

corporate and household sectors

Both DM and EM macro policies are still supportive:– Loose monetary policy in DM

Economic growth appears to be bottoming out in some key EM countries

Contagion risks from sovereign debt issues in Europe and US– Economies which require global capital markets to

fund current account and fiscal deficits affected

Rising regulatory intervention– Price controls and resource taxes in emerging

markets

Increase in bank credit/GDP in Asia, back to pre-Asian crisis level

Escalating tensions in the Korean peninsula

For the MSCI EM equity index, DPS (dividend per share) has steadily increased over the last 10 years

Dividends have been more stable than earnings in downturns

EM and Asia are the regions with the fastest growth rates of DPS

EM have managed DPS compound annual growth rate of 13% since 2000

MSCI EM, DPS and EPS EM and Asian Dividends have grown fastest

Payout DM Payout EM

EM equities offer the potential to raise dividend payments

EM companies consistently reduced their debt levels during the past decade

Current net debt to equity ratios ~ 28%, lower than developed markets with a ratio of ~40%

EM companies have high cash levels on their balance sheets

Potential to further increase dividend pay out ratios– Current pay out ratios are at the lower end of historical range and below DM levels

– many companies enter mature growth phase

Dividends represent an important component of total return

Dividends compound over the long run to make a substantial contribution to total return

The contribution from dividends becomes more important in periods of normal or muted equity market returns

Source: UBS, December 2012 – cumulative returns excl. transaction costs, commissions, fees, margin interest. Actual transactions adjusted for such costs will result in reduced total returns

Dividend (re-investment) gain vs Capital gain

All other information is as at 31 December 2012. 1 Back test rules: At each month end, the universe is restricted to stocks which are in the MSCI EM Index on that date. Each stock has a market capitalisation of at least USD 1 billion on thatdate. 75 stocks with the highest trailing dividend yield over the previous 12 months on that date are selected. These stocks are equally weighted within the portfolio. The portfolio is rebalanced at month end and the total returns computed in USD.Note: Back-test results or past performance are not guides for the future. No restriction to buy/sell stocks i.e. no constraint on having to actually receive dividends and payout the same as income. Our portfolio will be selected from ca. 350-400 stocks under our research coverage.

Why high dividend stocks in Emerging Markets/Asia ?

Stable dividend payout: EM/Asian companies have typically paid shareholders between 30-40% of their earnings over the past 10 years1

Ability to pay sustainable dividends

– EM/Asian companies show low debt levels on their balance sheets and have the cash to fund sustainable dividend payments

– Their current payout ratio is <35%1 which is at the lower end of its historic band, and below DM cos. payout ratio, suggesting room to increase

Dividend strategies have performed very well

– A simple illustrative portfolio2 that picked the EM/Asia stocks with the highest dividend yields, performed significantly better than the market1 over the last 10 years

– The UBS EM/Asia high dividend strategies have performed very well since inception in 2011

Diversification: EM/Asia High Dividend funds should provide good diversification to both your yield/income and Emerging markets exposures

Benefits of high and stable yield, with the potential for long-term capital appreciation
