4 Chinese overseas investment has grown in an extremely fast pace in recent years, reaching US$123.12 billion in 2015. As one of China’s largest investment groups, Fosun has been actively looking for overseas investment opportunities and has now extended its diversified business footprints throughout the world, including the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Germany, France, Russia, Portugal, Israel, Greece, Japan and etc. Fosun’s solid investment capabilities gradually caught attention by many world-class enterprises, however, has been falling into the skeptical gaze of the world, which criticized the explosion of Chinese investment more as a “shopping fever” rather than logical and reasonable investments. Chinese enterprises have certainly grown more influential among the nations in the recent decade, yet there are still markets or communities with more reluctance to welcome Chinese investments. Domestic media and general audience in targeted markets may have limited understanding for Chinese enterprises, and in particular, an investment group with complex business structure and capabilities such as Fosun. Hence, our reputation management is counted on as immediate priorities in audition and bidding processes to secure possible future investment opportunities, as well as to minimize any speculation or rumor-mongering in targeted markets. Riding on the trend of rising Chinese wealth and consumption, Fosun’s reputation sometimes also faces challenges as China’s general image is under suspicious perceptions with sensitive topics in geopolitical fights. Fosun has been leveraging its strengths to open up new financing resources, and it has helped portfolio companies to build up reliable positive corporate image globally and in China. Challenge

5 Strategy Based on our analysis on current overseas investment challenges and trends, Fosun set up multiple strategies to succeed in such rigorous environment: Defines Fosun’s corporate and management identity as a long-term value investor to the rest of the world with committed support and business structure. Differentiates Fosun from other international investment groups with our specific value-investing philosophy and management’s aspirations of “Combining China’s Growth Momentum with Global Resources”, which successfully connected foreign traditional renowned brands with Chinese growing consumption, and drove strong growth for our portfolio companies. Establishes congenial business partnership with overseas investee enterprises by means of respecting their culture values and corporate governance practices in retaining their independent routine operations, and thereby confirming that Fosun is a trustworthy partner to maximizing corporate value in Chinese market. Increase Fosun’s name recognition and awareness in the world with an emphasize of Chinese style entrepreneurship, particularly in the insurance and investment segments, thereby to differentiate Fosun from other Chinese companies, and raise the profile of Fosun to seek favor with regard to our investment. Through successful local events in various business markets and efficient media interview coverage with influential financial/business media, Fosun has further elucidated our vision and capacity to transform the company to a global investment group.

6 Execution Fosun’s corporate communications team has been actively exploring global media landscape and public relations strategies in various markets to ensure effective linkages with media and dissemination of information for business updates around the world. With our comprehensive communication network, the team has secured numbers of opportunities for our senior management team, including Chairman Mr. Guo Guangchang, Vice Chairman & CEO Mr. Liang Xinjun, and President Mr. Wang Qunbin, to conduct interviews on various storylines and attend international summits. In last year, the team arranged over ten management interviews with media in the United States, Germany, Israel, Portugal, Hong Kong and China, which meant to reaffirm Fosun’s position as a long-term value investor in the worldwide, further to deliver strong investment ambitions in targeted markets. Fosun also leveraged significant financial developments, particularly the interim and annual results announcement, and closing of major M&A transactions, to deepen media relationships and raise the profile of Fosun’s fast growth in the Wealth, Health and Happiness business segments. Both mainstream influential media, finance and trade publications reported Fosun from different perspectives, but with an emphasize of true Chinese entrepreneurship and insurance + investment strategy. Completed deals of last year, especially the acquisition of the global premium tourism chain Club Med, investment of the quintessence of Canada Cirque du Soleil, the British travel company Thomas Cook and high-end nursery brand Silver Cross, also gained significant media coverage and positive feedbacks from all over the world.
