2. Presentation Overview How the Lehman Brothers bankruptcy changed portfolio management from dealing with risk to dealing with uncertainty Copley Investment Managements Hedge Strategy an overlay strategy designed to provide insurance to an existing portfolio using newly introduced instruments Slide 2

3. Portfolio Management Before and After Crisis Before crisis, portfolio managers: Assumed measurable risk (i.e. normal distribution) Based decisions on historical data assuming future would look like the past (mean reversion) Had false impression that they could insure against default using Credit Default Swaps After crisis, we learned hard lessons that: Black swan events and six sigma events introduced immeasurable uncertainty Hedging strategies have become increasingly important Slide 3

4. Financial Crisis Overview Worst crisis since the Great Depression Greenspan- Caused by the Under pricing of risk worldwide Risk management models inability to manage the risk of the entire financial system breaking down (systematic risk) Slide 4

5. Effects of Lehman Failure Questions that came about: What is the proper role of government? What is the proper amount of regulation? Should government bailout the private sector? What is acceptable level of debtprivate and public? Are credit rating agencies truly independent? Should the Fed act before or after bubble occurs? Is capitalism flawed? Slide 5

6. Why Lehman went Bankrupt Large positions in subprime mortgages High Leverage Ratio: 30.7 : 1 Small loss in value of the mortgages underlying assets destroys their equity Example: Asset decline of only 3-4% would wipe out all equity Slide 6

7. Lehman Bankruptcy On Sept. 15 2008 Lehman Brothers filed for bankruptcy protection DJIA closed down over 500 points (-4.4%) Largest point decline since 9/11 attacks at the time Largest bankruptcy in U.S. history $613 billion Slide 7

8. Changes in Portfolio Management More defensive and more active Renewed interest in diversificationsearching for new asset classes Slide 8

9. New Risks to Portfolio Managers Increased market volatility Huge budget deficits mean government intrusion in market Easy monetary policies of central bank create bubbles Potential inflation/deflation Potential Stagflation Slide 9

10. Reasons for Increased Volatility in U.S. Austerity measures in Europe Weak housing market and persistently high unemployment Increase in Government spending offset by decrease in Consumer spendingnet effect: decrease in aggregate demand China slowing growth in order to reduce inflationary pressures Possible Stagflationhigher interest rates necessary to attract international investors will choke off recovery Slide 10

11. Keynes on Unemployment Reduced Confidence Hoarding of Money Reduced Investment Reduced Production of Goods and Services Increased unemployment Slide 11

12. US is following Keynesian Approach in Fighting Unemployment Very loose monetary policy has driven interest rates down to historic lows Aggressive fiscal policy stimulus used to complement monetary policy expansion Goal: To increase confidence of employers and consumers Slide 12

13. Problems with Keynesian Approach Major problems: When should Fed withdrawal excess liquidity from market in order to avoid inflation down the road? How will Government retire huge debt without inflating? Is Governments objective to redistribute wealth as opposed to generating growth? Many investors view Governmental intervention as increasing uncertainty as opposed to reducing it. Slide 13

14. Problems with Keynesian Approach Other problems: Government crowds out private sector Politicians cannot be trusted to reduce deficits once economy recovers Moral Hazard from Bailout policies General distrust of Big Government infringing on personal freedoms Slide 14

15. CIMs Hedging Strategy Creates a defensive strategy to protect a clients portfolio against increasing uncertainty from macro factors Uses new instruments (ETFs and ETNs) coupled with Closed end Investment Companies Gives clients the benefits of a hedge fund, without the excessive costs and lack of liquidity See Appendix for a complete list of ETFs, ETNs and CEFs we use in creating hedging strategy. Slide 15

16. Risks of Hedging Strategy Incorrect Timing The strategy could be right but the timing wrong Excessive Global Capacity Constrains inflation; allows central bank to keep interest rates low possibly for many years Opportunity Cost Missed positive returns in global equity markets Low Trading Volume of selected securities Hard to buy and sell large quantities Slide 16

17. What is an Exchange Traded Fund (ETF)? An Exchange Traded Fund (ETF): Tracks an index of assets Trades like a stock on an exchange Arbitrage prevents premiums and discounts by creating new ETF units or redeeming old ETF units depending on demand Slide 17

18. What is an iPath Exchange Traded Notes (ETNs)? An iPath ETN is: Senior, unsecured, unsubordinated debt securities A way for investors to access the returns of market benchmarks at a low cost Traded on an exchange and can be shorted Similar to an ETFno premiums or discounts Slide 18

19. What is a Closed-end Investment Company? A Closed-end Investment Company: Has a fixed number of shares outstanding Does not redeem shares the way a typical mutual fund does Shares trade on a stock exchange Fund is not obligated to issue new shares or redeem outstanding shares like an ETF or ETN Price of a share driven by market demandshares can trade either at a discount or a premium Slide 19

20. Benefits of ETFs and ETNs Good liquidity in carefully selected funds Allows for investment in specific indexes of stocks, bonds or commodities Close to 1,000 listed ETFs in the U.S. and growing Lower cost than traditional mutual funds Gaining market share at the expense of open-ended funds Have tax advantages relative to mutual fundsan ETF is a swap Slide 20
