The German 10-year benchmark yield went from 3.95% at the start of the year to 4.67% in July, before closing the year at 4.31%. The fallout from the subprime sector gradually spread across the entire financial sphere: interbank rates, money markets, corporate and high-yield bonds, and structured products all suffered the adverse impact of a sharp increase in aversion to risk. The ECB was prompted to make a number of cash injections into the system and called time on its cycle of raising interest rates. Despite judders on various risky asset classes that suffered the negative impact of the subprime crisis, emerging countries' debt rose sharply throughout the year. JPMorgan's emerging markets bond index, the EMBI Global Diversified, posted performance of 6.16%, while the emerging local markets index, the ELMI+, saw a 16.04% rise. Widening "spreads" on external debt were largely due to the substantial cut in US Treasury yields. Apart from inflation which was up sharply worldwide, the fundamentals of emerging countries proved much more solid than in the past. In mid-June the fund manager decided to significantly increase the portfolio's sensitivity to its upper limit. He raised the sensitivity of the eurozone bonds portion to nearly 7 before gradually reducing it to 6, in line with its benchmark index. Outlook Pressure on European economic growth should continue to be reflected in the statistics. The ECB is still torn between inflationary risks and the need to adopt a more accommodating monetary policy. The appreciation of the euro will help limit inflationary pressures but it will also hamper European competitiveness. In the United States, the bond markets have already factored in a probable recession. 12 BL SICAV with multiple Sub-Funds REPORT OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS (continued) BL-Global 30 After posting favourable performance in the first half of the year, the main stock market indexes dropped back during the second half. Among the main asset classes, only emerging countries ended the year with performance above 10%. The weakest stock market was - as in 2006 - the Japanese market, which fell by over 10%. For the second year in succession, bond market performance was disappointing. The JP Morgan EMU Bonds index was up 1.8% over the whole year. On the currency markets, the euro appreciated against most of the major international currencies. The US dollar, pound sterling and Japanese yen declined by 9%, 8% and 4% respectively against the euro. During the year, the weighting of equities was steadily decreased, from 35% in January to 28.5% in December. The reduction in equities was mainly achieved by cutting European stocks (from 16% to 12%) and US stocks (from 11.5% to 9.5%). Following the decrease in the equity weighting, the proportion of eurobonds was increased from 59% to 66%. However, the duration of the bond portion remained unchanged and stood at 6.0 at the end of December. In October, emerging country bonds were reduced from 4% to 2% (by the sale of half the position in the Julius Baer Local Emerging Markets Bond fund) following their good performance in recent years. Hedging of assets in dollars was reduced from 80% to 60% at the start of the year. Currencies other than the dollar (such as the pound sterling, the Japanese yen and other Asian currencies) are not hedged. Among European stocks, the fund manager invested in Continental, Royal Wessanen, Swedish Match, Hypo Real Estate, Schindler, Oesterreichische Post, Trygvesta, Intertek, Southern Cross Healthcare, Neopost, Synthes, Bodycote and Aalberts Industries. He sold positions in BHP Billiton, Rieter, Eurocommercial Properties, United Utilities, Endesa, Johnston Press, Henkel, Sanofi, Enel, HSBC and Royal Bank of Scotland. ABN Amro was taken over by the consortium formed by Royal Bank of Scotland, Fortis and Banco Santander. Novartis and Persimmon were reduced. Among US stocks, he took positions in Global Payments, Thomas & Betts, 3M, Dresser-Rand, Graco, Thermo Fisher Scientific, Best Buy, KBR, Checkfree, General Cable, Corporate Executive Board, Legg Mason, Amdocs and Joy Global. The manager sold positions in Borders Group, Jackson Hewitt, Washington Mutual, Toll Brothers, Kraft Foods, Magna International, Gannett, Oracle, Timberland, Pfizer, Masco, Diebold, Lennar, Commscope, Deere and Illinois Toolworks. CDW, Checkfree, Biomet and Cytyc were taken over. The position taken in Mueller Water Products during the year has been sold. In Asia excluding Japan, the fund manager reduced exposure at the end of the year after the good performance of the asset class in 2007. Accordingly, he sold Carlson Small Cap Asia and reduced the position of Templeton Asian Growth due to their significant exposure to China. On the other hand, he took an initial position in Comgest Magellan. In Japan, the fund manager did not make any major changes. In commodities, the fund manager eliminated his last exposure in June by the sale of the 0.5% invested in the Crédit Suisse Equities Global Energy fund. The commodities equities asset class has been removed from the strategic allocation after its strong run on the stock markets in the last few years. 13 BL SICAV with multiple Sub-Funds REPORT OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS (continued) In bonds, he took a position of 2% in a bond whose performance is indexed to the Stork Fund Credit & Bonds Arbitrage fund of funds. This fund of funds is 50% invested in the Cigogne Fixed Income Arbitrage fund (aiming to benefit from arbitrage possibilities between correlated bonds or between OTC products such as swaps or interest rate options) and 50% in the Cigogne Convertible Arbitrage fund (aiming to benefit from arbitrage possibilities between convertible bonds and the stocks underlying these bonds). These 2 products are hedge funds managed by the management company Cigogne (owned by Crédit Mutuel-CIC) which has over 20 years' experience in this area. The objective of the product is to generate higher performance than traditional bonds without increasing the risk. At the end of the year, the fund was 28.5% in equities, 68% in bonds and 3.5% in cash. Exposure to the US dollar is 60% hedged. Outlook The outlook on the bond markets is neutral. At around 4.25%, European 10-year rates are what the fund manager considers to be their fair value. The outlook for stock markets is poor. Company profits are likely to come under pressure due to the slowdown in the global economy and the high level of profit margins. Valuation multiples are not expected to increase given the uncertainties related to values of complex financial products created in recent years. 14 BL SICAV with multiple Sub-Funds REPORT OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS (continued) BL-Global 50 After posting favourable performance in the first half of the year, the main stock market indexes dropped back during the second half. Among the main asset classes, only emerging countries ended the year with performance above 10%. The weakest stock market was - as in 2006 - the Japanese market, which fell by over 10%. For the second year in succession, bond market performance was disappointing. The JP Morgan EMU Bonds index was up 1.8% over the whole year. On the currency markets, the euro appreciated against most of the major international currencies. The US dollar, pound sterling and Japanese yen declined by 9%, 8% and 4% respectively against the euro. During the year, the weighting of equities was steadily decreased, from 54% in January to 48.5% in December. The reduction in equities was mainly achieved by cutting US stocks (from 20% to 16.5%) and US stocks (from 22.5% to 20%). However, the weighting of Asian (excluding Japan) stocks was increased (from 5% to 7.5%). Following the decrease in the equity weighting, the proportion of eurobonds was increased from 41% to 43.5%. There was little change to the duration of the bond portion which stood at 5.6 at the end of December. During the year, emerging market bonds were sold (by the sale of Julius Baer Local Emerging Markets Bond fund) following their good performance in recent years. Hedging of assets in dollars was reduced from 80% to 60% at the start of the year. Currencies other than the dollar (such as the pound sterling, the Japanese yen and other Asian currencies) are not hedged. Among European stocks, the fund manager invested in Continental, Swedish Match, Hypo Real Estate, Schindler, Wereldhave, Trygvesta, Intertek, Southern Cross Healthcare, Neopost, Synthes, Bodycote, Brembo, Kaba, Aalberts Industries, Saipem and Petroleum Geo-Services. He sold positions in BHP Billiton, Rieter, Eurocommercial Properties, United Utilities, Endesa, Johnston Press, Henkel, Sanofi, Enel, HSBC and Royal Bank of Scotland.

In Asia excluding Japan, he bought Fidelity Fund Thailand at the beginning of the year. At the end of the year, he sold Carlson Small Cap Asia and reduced the position of Templeton Asian Growth due to their high exposure to China. In contrast, he took an initial position in JPM Taiwan and Comgest Magellan. He also took a position in the biggest Korean bank, Kookmin Bank. In Japan, the fund manager did not make any major changes. In commodities, he eliminated his last exposure in June by the sale of the 0.5% invested in the Crédit Suisse Equities Global Energy fund. The commodities equities asset class has been removed from the strategic allocation after its strong run on the stock markets in the last few years. 15 BL SICAV with multiple Sub-Funds REPORT OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS (continued) In bonds, he took a position of 2% in a bond whose performance is indexed to the Stork Fund Credit & Bonds Arbitrage fund of funds. This fund of funds is 50% invested in the Cigogne Fixed Income Arbitrage fund (aiming to benefit from arbitrage possibilities between correlated bonds or between OTC products such as swaps or interest rate options) and 50% in the Cigogne Convertible Arbitrage fund (aiming to benefit from arbitrage possibilities between convertible bonds and the stocks underlying these bonds). These 2 products are hedge funds managed by the management company Cigogne (owned by Crédit Mutuel-CIC) which has over 20 years' experience in this area. The objective of the product is to generate higher performance than traditional bonds without increasing the risk. At the end of the year, the fund was 48.5% in equities, 43.5% in bonds and 8% in cash. Exposure to the US dollar is 60% hedged. Outlook The outlook on the bond markets is neutral. At around 4.25%, European 10-year rates are what the fund manager considers to be their fair value. The outlook for stock markets is poor. Company profits are likely to come under pressure due to the slowdown in the global economy and the high level of profit margins. Valuation multiples are not expected to increase given the uncertainties related to values of complex financial products created in recent years. 16 BL SICAV with multiple Sub-Funds REPORT OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS (continued) BL-Global 75 After posting favourable performance in the first half of the year, the main stock market indexes dropped back during the second half. Among the main asset classes, only emerging countries ended the year with performance above 10%. The weakest stock market was - as in 2006 - the Japanese market, which fell by over 10%. For the second year in succession, bond market performance was disappointing. The JP Morgan EMU Bonds index was up 1.8% over the whole year. On the currency markets, the euro appreciated against most of the major international currencies. The US dollar, pound sterling and Japanese yen declined by 9%, 8% and 4% respectively against the euro. During the year, the weighting of equities was steadily decreased, from 73.5% in January to 69.5% in December. The reduction in equities was mainly achieved by cutting US stocks (from 29% to 23.5%). However, the weighting of Asian (excluding Japan) stocks was increased (from 6.5% to11.5%). The proportion of eurobonds hardly changed. The duration of the bond portion was maintained at around 6.2. At the start of the year, emerging market bonds were sold (by the sale of Julius Baer Local Emerging Markets Bond fund) following their good performance in recent years. Hedging of assets in dollars was reduced from 80% to 60% at the start of the year. Currencies other than the dollar (such as the pound sterling, the Japanese yen and other Asian currencies) are not hedged. Among European stocks, the fund manager invested in Continental, Swedish Match, Hypo Real Estate, Schindler, Intertek, Southern Cross Healthcare, Neopost, Synthes, Bodycote, Brembo, Kaba, Aalberts Industries, Saipem and Petroleum Geo-Services. The fund manager sold positions in BHP Billiton, Rieter, Endesa, Johnston Press, Henkel, Sanofi, HSBC and Royal Bank of Scotland. ABN Amro was taken over by the consortium formed by Royal Bank of Scotland, Fortis and Banco Santander. Novartis and Persimmon were reduced. Among US stocks, he took positions in Global Payments, Thomas & Betts, 3M, Dresser-Rand, Graco, Thermo Fisher Scientific, Best Buy, KBR, Checkfree, General Cable, Corporate Executive Board, Legg Mason, Amdocs and Joy Global. He sold positions in Borders Group, Jackson Hewitt, Washington Mutual, Toll Brothers, Kraft Foods, Magna International, Gannett, Oracle, Timberland, Pfizer, Masco, Diebold, Lennar, Commscope and Deere. CDW, Checkfree, Biomet and Cytyc were taken over. The position taken in Mueller Water Products during the year has been sold. In Asia excluding Japan, the manager bought Fidelity Fund Thailand at the beginning of the year. At the end of the year, he sold Carlson Small Cap Asia and reduced the position of Templeton Asian Growth due to their high exposure to China. In contrast, he took an initial position in JPM Taiwan, Crédit Agricole Asean New Markets and Comgest Magellan. He also took a position in the biggest Korean bank, Kookmin Bank. In Japan, he did not make any major changes. In commodities, the fund manager eliminated his last exposure in June by the sale of the 0.5% invested in the Crédit Suisse Equities Global Energy fund. The commodities equities asset class has been removed from the strategic allocation after its strong run on the stock markets in the last few years. At the end of the year, the fund was invested 69.5% in equities, 24.5% in bonds and 6% in cash. Exposure to the US dollar is 60% hedged. 17 BL SICAV with multiple Sub-Funds REPORT OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS (continued) Outlook The outlook on the bond markets is neutral. The manager considers that European 10-year rates are at fair value. The outlook for stock markets is poor. Company profits are likely to come under pressure due to the slowdown in the global economy and the high level of profit margins. Valuation multiples are not expected to increase given the uncertainties related to values of complex financial products created in recent years. 18 BL SICAV with multiple Sub-Funds REPORT OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS (continued) BL-Global Equities After posting favourable performance in the first half of the year, the main stock market indexes dropped back during the second half.

During the year, the weighting of equities was steadily decreased, from 94% in January to 83.5% in December. The reduction in equities was mainly achieved by cutting US stocks (from 35% to 26.5%) and European stocks (from 40.5% to 38.5%). By contrast, Asian stocks excluding Japan were increased (from 8.5% to 11.5%). Hedging of assets in dollars was reduced from 80% to 60% at the start of the year.

On the other hand, he took an initial position in JPM Taiwan, Crédit Agricole Asean New Markets and Comgest Magellan. He also took a position in the largest Korean bank, Kookmin Bank. In Japan, the manager sold Sparx Japan and invested the proceeds in UBAM Equities Japan. In commodities, he eliminated his last exposure in June by the sale of the 0.5% invested in the Crédit Suisse Equities Global Energy fund. The commodities equities asset class has been removed from the strategic allocation after its strong run on the stock markets in the last few years. At the end of the year, the fund was 83.5% invested in equities and 16.5% in cash. Exposure to the US dollar is 60% hedged. 19 BL SICAV with multiple Sub-Funds REPORT OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS (continued) Outlook The outlook for stock markets is poor. Company profits are likely to come under pressure due to the slowdown in the global economy and the high level of profit margins. Valuation multiples are not expected to increase given the uncertainties related to values of complex financial products created in recent years. 20 BL SICAV with multiple Sub-Funds REPORT OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS (continued) BL-Equities Horizon In 2007, the fund manager continued to focus on companies presenting a sound balance sheet, high profitability and generating substantial surplus cash on a recurrent basis. New investments were made with a long-term outlook and at valuation levels offering an attractive discount in relation to the companies' intrinsic value. On this basis, the fund manager took positions during the year in Bangkok Bank (January, 2%), 3M (2nd half, 2%), Anheuser-Busch (August, 1%), Royal Wessanen (2nd half, 4%), Schneider Electric (2nd half, 1.5%), Cisco (October, 1%) and Adidas (October, 1%). Bangkok Bank is the biggest bank in Thailand. Although it is a commercial bank offering a wide range of products and financial services, its profits are largely derived from the interest margin between deposits and credits. As the majority of credits have short deadlines, asset/liability management of the balance sheet presents little risk. The main uncertainty lies in the quality of the credit portfolio. At the time of purchase, Bangkok Bank traded at 1.5 times equity in 2006 and at 10 times estimated profits in 2007. With these multiples, the margin of security seems to us to be sufficiently high to open an initial position in the company. The US industrial conglomerate 3M, the company behind "Scotch" and "Post-It", markets thousands of products, all based on a limited number of technologies and processes developed in the group's highly innovative research laboratories. 60% of sales are generated outside the United States and 50% of its revenues are considered to come from non-cyclical activities. The group's capacity for innovation may give it a competitive advantage over its competitors. The company's stock market valuation is reasonable after the share's stagnation over the last 4 years. Anheuser-Busch is the leading beer producer in the United States. Despite weak growth in the US beer market, the company is expected to continue to post regular growth in profits thanks to a slight increase in volumes, its ability to regularly raise its prices due to its dominant position, the value of its distribution network through cooperation with other drinks producers, and share buybacks. It was purchased at the end of August after the share had fallen 12% in the previous two months. The Dutch food company Royal Wessanen restructured its activities during recent years to concentrate exclusively on natural/biological product segments and high quality niche products. In particular, the company has the second largest bio products distribution network in the United States. In the next few years, Wessanen should benefit from the structural change towards healthier eating. The company has low debt levels and offers a net dividend yield of 5%. The French group Schneider is a dominant player in electrical distribution systems and industrial automation. Following the steady restructuring of its portfolio of products over recent years, the company now has a powerful position in the majority of its activities. In the coming years, it should benefit from the renewal of electricity distribution systems in many developed countries and strong demand for electrical infrastructures in emerging countries. Following the slump in Schneider's share price in the 2nd half, we have taken an initial position in the company. Cisco is the global market leader in hardware and software for the internet and intranet. Cisco's unique status in its segment of activity procures the company unrivalled margins in the sector and enables it to generate high cash flow and reach higher than average levels of profitability. Cisco should benefit from excellent positioning among its clients to diversify its income in peripheral areas to its base activity. In these new areas of expertise, which Cisco penetrates not least via targeted acquisitions, it could exploit its technology networks expertise and offer integrated and effective solutions. 21 BL SICAV with multiple Sub-Funds REPORT OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS (continued) Adidas dominates the sports shoe and clothes market along with Nike. Due to its acquisition of Reebok in 2006, the company is currently in a transition phase. The latest figures seem to indicate that Adidas is succeeding in steadily increasing Reebok's profitability through cost synergies and a differentiated positioning for the American brand. Adidas is also benefiting from the weak dollar given that its production costs are all denominated in dollars. Because of the value of the Adidas brand, and prospects for acceleration of sales and improved profitability in 2008, the fund manager took an initial position in the company as its price remains reasonable despite the share's good stock market performance in recent years. On the other hand, he sold all his investments in Johnston Press, Pfizer, Kraft Foods, Thor Industries, Persimmon, Titan Cement, Lennar and McGraw Hill. He also considerably reduced his weighting in Gannett, Vinci, Berkshire Hathaway and HSBC. In the 1st quarter, the fund manager sold shares in the British newspaper publisher Johnston Press. Like most newspaper companies, Johnston Press is suffering increasing competition from online publicity which is in the process of taking market share in advertising. This trend is likely to intensify in the future and call into question the business model of traditional newspaper publishers like Johnston Press which had until now a virtual monopoly on local advertising markets. Consequently, the increase in revenues and the level of margins (over 30%) reached in the past risk are unlikely to be sustainable in the medium term. From January to April, he sold shares in the US pharmaceutical company Pfizer. The sale can be explained by the poor projections for Pfizer's future results. From 2010, Pfizer will lose a number of very important patents, which are in danger of not being be replaced by current compounds under development. Despite its size, Pfizer depends on a handful of flagship products (its principal product Lipitor accounts for a quarter of total sales) so the loss of patents on these products raises concerns about future cash flow. Due to these uncertainties surrounding the investment case, he has decided to disengage from Pfizer. In June, the manager sold his shares in the US food company, Kraft Foods. He became shareholders in Kraft in April when the parent company Altria distributed its holding in Kraft to its shareholders in order to concentrate exclusively on tobacco activities. As the Kraft shares, which were already listed prior to that date, were particularly weak March, we kept our investment in the company initially. However, Kraft has a portfolio of low quality products which could suffer from a structural change towards healthier and more natural food. So he took advantage of the share's rebound in June to sell our position. In June the manager also sold his position in Thor Industries, the biggest manufacturer of caravans and mobile homes in the United States. Although the company remains undisputed leader in its sector and maintains a top quality balance sheet, it is suffering from a slowdown in demand for its products due to the rise of the interest rates. As the share price had not yet reacted to the deterioration of the company's prospects, we sold our positions in June. In July, the manager sold his shares in the UK construction firm Persimmon. In the last few years, the company has benefited from the huge increase in home prices in the UK. This increase in prices is explained by housing stock availability structurally lower than demand and the good performance of the London financial marketplace. Following the Bank of England's higher than expected increase in interest rates, the increase in house prices has started to slow. In an environment of rising interest rates in the UK and the sub-prime crisis in the United States, he decided to sell Persimmon which was then trading at a price/earnings multiple of 8 corresponding to the average for the last 10 years. 22 BL SICAV with multiple Sub-Funds REPORT OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS (continued) In July the manager also sold his position in Titan Cement. Although the leading Greek cement producer continued to post solid results, its high exposure to the US market is in danger of leading to a slowdown in profits growth. Since the value of cement companies has increased sharply in recent years, the company also had trouble finding attractive target acquisitions to diversify beyond Greece and the United States. As the share price did not react significantly to the deterioration of prospects in the medium-term, he sold his shares in the company. In August and September, he sold his position in Lennar. Lennar is one of the biggest real estate constructers in the United States. Since homebuilding in the United States has slumped and as it could take several years for prices and activity to adjust, construction companies will have trouble finding satisfactory profitability and are in danger of seeing the collapse of their equity which is substantially invested in land and other real estate. The fund manager also sold his position in McGraw Hill (gradually over the second half of the year). In the last few years, the owner of the rating agency Standard & Poor's has derived huge benefit from the explosion in structured products. If the sub-prime crisis spreads to other segments of the credit market, securitisation of all kinds of loans could slow in the next few years, especially as the rapid and sizeable downgrading of the rating of certain securities significantly affected the credibility of the major rating agencies. Gannett's position was reduced from 4% to 1% over the year due to the loss of the company's competitive advantage in light of the ascendancy of online advertising steadily taking market share from traditional newspapers. In September, the position of Vinci was reduced from 7% to 4%. The French group has considerably shifted its portfolio of activity in recent years, becoming one of the leading players in concessions in Europe. This repositioning has been accompanied by a sharp increase in the share price since 2003. Even though the results of the company remain on a favourable path, the manager has reduced the stock's weight because of lower stock market potential in the future following the group's major revaluation since 2003. In December, the position of Berkshire Hathaway was reduced from 6% to 3% due to the favourable performance of the share. Following the financial turbulence, investors sought less risky investments, which benefited Berkshire due to Warren Buffett's credibility and its strong cash position (representing nearly a quarter of its portfolio). Substantial outpeformance led the manager to reduce the position. In December, the position in HSBC was reduced from 5% to 2.5%. The reduction in HSBC was explained by the poor outlook for banks in 2008. Given the weakness of financial stocks in the last few months, the HSBC share has held up relatively well. The share is now trading at 11 times estimated profits for 2007, while many major international banks are posting considerably weaker valuation multiples. Because of uncertainties over the valuation of complex financial instruments created in recent years and the risks of recession in the United States and the UK (regions in which HSBC has considerable exposure), the potential for the company's profitable growth and increase in valuation multiples seems limited. At the end of the year, the fund was 90% invested in equities and 10% in cash. Exposure to the US dollar was 80% hedged throughout 2007. Outlook The outlook for the European stock markets is poor. Company profits will come under pressure due to the slowdown in the global economic situation and the high level of profit margins. Valuation multiples are not expected to increase given the uncertainties over the valuation of complex financial products created in recent years. In this environment, the manager is continuing to focus on the quality of selected companies and he favours organisations that he believes have limited sensitivity to economic cycles. 23 BL SICAV with multiple Sub-Funds REPORT OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS (continued) BL-Equities America In 2007 in the United States, the stock market was dominated by the real estate crisis and the bursting of the mortgage lending financial bubble, leading to considerable divergence between the performance of different market sectors. The energy, commodities, industry and technology sectors recorded the best performance. Companies in these sectors profited from their exposure to international markets, the weakness of the dollar and the continuing rise in raw materials prices. In addition, thanks to the good quality of the balance sheet of many of these companies, operating activities were not affected by the harsher credit environment. On the other hand, financial and cyclical consumer stocks performed markedly below par. The objective of the BL-Equities America fund is to invest in companies with promising growth prospects that generate high free cash flow as well as having an attractive valuation. The BL-Equities America investment philosophy is based on the concept of “business-like investing”, a more comprehensive and extensive approach than “value investing”. By analysing companies according to this concept, the fund manager has grouped his investments into 3 categories: “Established Value”, “Consistent Earners” and “Growing Franchises”. He has made the following adjustments to his investment portfolio: In the industry sector, he took a position in the industrial conglomerate 3M. The appointment of a new CEO and the development of a new growth strategy based on new product designs and more pronounced geographic diversification offer attractive growth prospects. The fund manager also invested in the leader in international express transport, FedEX. Its logistics market is built on a distribution network that is impossible to duplicate so it offers attractive prospects for future years. His investment in Corporate Executive Board, which provides “best practice” research to company heads, is based on its unique positioning in its industry. In infrastructure, he invested in Thomas & Betts, KBR, General Cable and Joy Global. The investment case for these companies lies mainly in the process of industrialisation of the Non-G7 countries. This growth cycle, spanning several years, is driving a strong increase in demand and pushing up prices for raw materials, energy and construction products. In addition, after many years of under-investment, modernisation of the infrastructure network in the United States will require substantial investments over the next decade. In technology and IT services, the manager invested in Checkfree and Amdocs, suppliers of billing software. Checkfree is the undisputed leader in online invoice payment. Its competitive advantage and excellent free cash flow generation were recognised by the financial services group Fiserv which acquired Checkfree during the year. He also took a position in Global Payments which offers services and solutions for payment processing and fund transfers. Generating the majority of its revenues in the United States, Global Payments is continuing to systematically develop its franchise by increasing its presence in other areas of the world such as Eastern Europe and Asia. In the financial sector, the manager invested in the asset manager Legg Mason. Following the acquisition of the Citigroup Asset Management business in 2005, Legg Mason had around 1,000 billion dollars of assets under management. The impact of the financial crisis in the United States, difficulties in integrating Citigroup's products and the search for a successor for Chip Mason have made the group's valuation very attractive. 24 BL SICAV with multiple Sub-Funds REPORT OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS (continued) Other investments were made in Thermo Fisher Scientific and Best Buy. Over the last 20 years, Best Buy has been established as a leader in distribution of the latest electronic products in the United States. With an innovative sales approach and unique service quality, the company has built up competitive advantage over its competitors. At the same time, Best Buy has succeeded in generating a return on capital employed that far exceeds its cost of capital. On the disposal side, the fund manager sold his positions in Realogy, Biomet, CDW Corp. and Hydril which were either bought by competitors or private equity groups. Most of the other sales were linked to the real estate crisis and its impact on consumer spending in the United States. The subprime crisis had a seriously detrimental impact on the operational environment of many companies in the retail and financial sector. As a result, he got out of Jackson Hewitt, Pulte Homes, Lennar, Gannett, Timberland, Masco, Diebold, Borders and Washington Mutual. During the year, he also took a position in the drinking water and waste water distribution systems equipment supplier Mueller Water Products but, as a result of the real estate crisis, the fundamentals of this company also deteriorated significantly and he sold the share. The investments of the fund manager in Ingersoll Rand, Kraft, Oracle, Deere and Commscope were sold for valuation reasons. Outlook The outlook for the US stock market in 2008 is poor. Corporate profits will probably come under pressure from the slowdown in US consumption. Valuation multiples are unlikely to increase due to the uncertainties over the valuation of the complex financial products created in recent years. In this environment, the fund manager is continuing to focus on the quality of the companies he selects and to favour companies that he considers have limited sensitivity to economic cycles. 25 BL SICAV with multiple Sub-Funds REPORT OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS (continued) BL-Equities Europe BL-Equities Europe invests in companies that are building and developing unique differentiation factors. This competitive advantage is generally a guarantee of good operational profitability and a healthy financial situation. The investments are made when the company's stock market valuation offers an attractive discount against our estimate of the company's intrinsic value. Our process reflects a long-term investment horizon but, ideally, the fund manager invests at a time when the company's return on capital employed is high and/or increasing. The portfolio's structure did not change fundamentally in 2007. It was far removed from that of its benchmark with high exposure in consumer, chemical and industrial companies and under-exposure in pharmaceuticals, telecommunications, technology and financials. The portfolio remained relatively concentrated, with the top 20 positions (out of 50-55) representing 60% of the portfolio all year. Of the companies that were the top 20 positions in the portfolio at the start of the year, the fund manager sold Royal Bank of Scotland and HSBC, as these two banks, highly exposed to the UK and US markets, are likely to suffer from the economic slowdown expected in these two regions and will have to deal with the repercussions of the financial crisis triggered by the US sub-prime crisis. At the same time, he considerably reduced the position in Persimmon, the leading residential housebuilder in the UK, during the year because of the slowdown on the British property market after many years of feasting. His investment in Sanofi-Aventis was sold following the setback for Acomplia which was not approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in the United States. His investment case, partially resting on the success of this drug against obesity, was nullified. He also cashed in his investment in Henkel, as the stock market valuation of the German household product group reached his sell target. Among the portfolio's major investments, the fund manager also sold the shares he held in ABN Amro and Endesa in the context of the takeover bids on these companies, respectively by a consortium led by the Royal Bank of Scotland and by Acciona-Enel, at a good price. Three new investments taken on during the year figured among the top 20 in the portfolio. He invested in Continental, which has a big franchise in the automobile sector, specifically tyres and vehicle electronic systems. Continental presents two considerations that underpin our investment case: on the one hand, activity is driven by the growing penetration of electronic equipment in vehicles. On this market, in which the German group has frequently played a pioneering role, Continental is well able to extend its franchise by becoming established as world leader, particularly in chassis control systems and passive security in the early stages of their development. On the other hand, given its recurrent cash flow generation and balance sheet cash surpluses, Continental will be able pursue its strategy of acquisitions of electronic systems units from integrated businesses. Continental's unique integration capacity and management standards should enable it to increase the profitability of activities thus acquired. The fund manager has taken a holding in Swedish Match, a player heavily weighted on the non- cigarette tobacco market. The company has a portfolio of leading brands on very niche markets for snuff, chewing tobacco, pipe tobacco and cigars. As is the case for cigarettes, brand loyalty and recurrent demand generate high return on equity. The possibility of an expansion of the market addressable by Swedish Match cannot be excluded. This could happen if the ban on the sale of snuff in Europe were lifted. 26 BL SICAV with multiple Sub-Funds REPORT OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS (continued) The fund manager invested in Hypo Real Estate, the second-largest European operator on the commercial property financing market. Its activity is based principally in Europe and the United States, but Asia is in a process of expansion within its portfolio of activities, ensuring complementary diversification of the asset base. Hypo focuses its activity on major financing projects with professional investors (commercial and public sector). Our investment thesis is based on the capacity of the management to continue to improve its return on equity, while maintaining the pace of generating new contracts by the development of its off balance sheet activity (securitisation and syndication), as well as by market share gains in the growing activity of infrastructure financing (e.g. for petroleum infrastructures) and public-private partnerships (e.g. roads and airports) with the new “Asset Finance” division. Among smaller positions (those held up to 2%), we sold four investments. BHP Billiton, SES and Rieter Holding were sold as their valuation had reached our sales objective, while British newspaper publisher, Johnston Press, was sold due to the increasing competition from on-line advertising which is gaining market share. We also sold the shares that we held in Euronext and Kaufman & Broad. These two groups were the subject of takeovers, by the Nyse Group and PAI Partners. At the same time, we initiated a certain number of positions with a portfolio weighting of less than 2%. Southern Cross Healthcare is the biggest operator of retirement homes in Great Britain, controlling 7% of the offer on a very fragmented market with structurally high growth potential. Southern Cross Healthcare could benefit from good projections for its activity and costs as well as potential to increase its operating margins. Intertek, along with the Swiss company SGS and the French company Bureau Veritas, dominates the market for analysis, control and certification of products, raw materials and systems. Together they hold aggregate market share of 25%. Although correlated to the global economic situation, the markets on which Intertek operates are driven by key structural factors that will boost the company's growth. Intertek has a worldwide network of offices and laboratories and expertise that enables it to forge close links with its clients, thus constituting sizeable entry barriers. Bodycote is the European leader in technologies and services for heat treatments and metallurgical isostatic pressing. These are expanding in services for product analysis, verification and certification, especially for materials, engineering and health. As world leader in heat treatments (enabling the quality or performance of metals to be strengthened), Bodycote is a critical link in the supply chain for a number of industries such as aeronautics, engineering, construction and electronics. Pfeiffer Vacuum, a modest-sized German company, is world leader in vacuum technologies. The company designs, produces and markets different types of pumps to create a vacuum in a given environment. Its product range includes complex systems as well as individual components. Apart from 100 years of expertise, which underpins the reputation of its products for quality, Pfeiffer Vacuum offers a competitive advantage through the quality of its service division (geographic coverage, client accessibility, and quick response), which enables the company to respond instantly to a client in the event of any of its equipment failing. This is absolutely vital to avoid halting a production chain and is highly valued by clients. The French company Neopost is European leader in postroom and logistics systems equipment. It covers a full range of personalised solutions for post handling and management. The group is developing in a market with a low risk of new entrants. Neopost's profile is steadily rising, due particularly to the size of its installed base, towards a services business with nearly 60% of its revenues being recurrent (after-sales services, consumables) and that have higher margins than equipment. Over the next few years, Neopost should benefit from the regulatory transition to digital in 2008 in the United States and the deregulation of the postal services market in Europe. 27 BL SICAV with multiple Sub-Funds REPORT OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS (continued) Saipem is one of the major suppliers of turnkey projects for the energy sector (oil and gas). Its range of services covers drilling activities, onshore (refineries, pipelines, storage terminals and transport) and offshore (production platforms, subsea-surface connections). This Italian group has very solid capacities for the engineering and execution of its projects. It has a particular niche in isolated projects, in deepwater and ultra deepwater environments and in gas. Demand for oil and gas infrastructures is in a long cycle due to the rationalisation of investments during the 1990s. This rationalisation came about after significant production overcapacities and the emergence of new vectors of demand, in this case coming from countries seeing burgeoning economic growth and as yet consuming small amounts of oil derivatives per capita (China, India). To meet its sizeable order book, Saipem has embarked on an investment programme to massively expand its new capacity, which will double its invested capital by 2010 compared to 2000-2005. The group's operational result should increase sharply and generate a higher return on capital employed than in the early 2000s. Petroleum Geo-Services has a strong franchise providing geophysical services for the oil industry. The Group offers seismic analysis (offshore and onshore) for oil companies to enable them to identify new reserves of oil/gas and understand more about the structure of their production reservoirs. PGS is one of the world's three biggest players on this market, at the cutting edge of technology. It has a dominant position in offshore because of its excellent quality and the competitive advantage generated by the wealth of its database. The industry has seen a spate of new entrants in recent years due to the increase in volumes of activity and prices. This new competitiveness does not threaten the profitability of companies with command over the technical challenges of their activity - the increase of the industry offer (by new entrants and existing players) is more than absorbed by the greater demand, as this market segment is seeing sustained demand, relatively little correlated to the price of oil, in both the upstream and downstream oil and gas production chain. The portfolio's performance over the whole year came in slightly below the Dow Jones 600 due to our exposure to certain banking and construction stocks. Nevertheless, overall, the majority of our investments posted favourable growth. Outlook The outlook for the European markets is poor. Companies' return on equity is at an all-time high, probably indicating the top of the cycle. Company profits will come under pressure due to the downturn in the economic situation in the United States and in many European countries. At best, emerging markets will only be able to marginally shore up European export activity. Valuation multiples are not expected to increase strongly given the risk premium required in the current climate of financial uncertainty. In this environment, we are continuing to focus on the quality of selected companies and we favour organisations that we believe have limited sensitivity to economic cycles. 28 BL SICAV with multiple Sub-Funds REPORT OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS (continued) BL-Equities Dividend This fund was launched in November. The particularly uncertain macroeconomic and financial environment prompted the fund manager to keep the cash portion high (36.5% at end of December). This cash will be gradually invested by taking advantage of any share price weaknesses on the companies selected. At the end of December, the fund was split between the three categories of companies as follows: pay-out ratio > 70%: 31.5% pay-out ratio between 40% and 70%: 16.5% pay-out ratio > 40%: 15.5% The fund's average net dividend yield is approx. 3.8%. Outlook The fund manager will remain open to changes in the portfolio's composition depending on opportunities offered by economic developments and the relative valuations of the various asset classes. 29 BL SICAV with multiple Sub-Funds REPORT OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS (continued) BL-Equities FoF Asia 2007 was another very good vintage for the Asian stock markets, despite liquidity problems generated by the US sub-prime crisis. Investors continued to acclaim the good health of companies which is reflected in their low debt levels and excellent profitability. So, after four years of rises, even though they can no longer be characterised as “cheap”, Asian stocks seem reasonable to us with an average price/earnings ratio of around 15.5 for 2007. Chinese stocks quoted in Hong Kong continued to attract investors who were counting on the opening of international markets to the Chinese, via the QDII (Qualified Domestic Institutional Investors) programme. Meanwhile, the Indian market benefited from its relatively low exposure to the world economy given that only 15% of Indian GDP is destined for export. In terms of performance, once again it was the stock markets of the major countries that did best with respective rises of 67%, 58% and 50% for the Indian, Chinese and Indonesian stock markets. Asian currencies continued to appreciate against the dollar except for the Indonesian rupee that was devalued against it by nearly 4%. Over the year, the fund manager favoured ASEAN markets for the portfolio, with overweighting in Thailand and Malaysia in particular. He also replaced Fidelity ASEAN by CAAM ASEAN New Market, in order to profit from its exposure to Vietnam. And he initiated positions in Invesco Asia Infrastructure and GAM Star Asia. Outlook After 5 years of rises, the Asian stock markets could mark time in 2008, in the wake of a slowdown or even recession in the United States. Even though these countries are more sound than they used to be and are starting to free themselves from dependence on exports for their economic growth, it still seems fairly unlikely that as far as stock market activity is concerned, they would manage to decouple from western stock markets as they are still very dependent on attracting inward investment from investors in rich countries. 30 BL SICAV with multiple Sub-Funds REPORT OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS (continued) BL-Equities FoF Japan Uncertainties surrounding the United States real estate crisis and domestic economic indicators continued to weigh on the Japanese stock market, while the political turbulence following the early departure of Prime Minister Abe did nothing to boost investors' confidence. Inflation is still below target and, in this difficult environment, the Bank of Japan (BoJ) maintained interest rates at 0.5%, unchanged since February 2007. Despite a weak currency and near-zero interest rates, Japan's domestic consumption failed to rally. Wages are stagnating and company profits have not yet translated into household spending. The labour market even dipped slightly in 2007. Apart from a few sectors such as commodities and maritime transport, it was hard to find a refuge in Japanese stocks. Exporting companies were hit by fears related to US consumption and the strength of the yen during the correction phases. Meanwhile, companies with substantial exposure to the domestic market continued to suffer from stagnation of national demand. Over the year, the Topix index fell 11.3% (in yen). Generally, the major exporters posted better performance than smaller players focusing on internal demand: the Topix 100 index was down -10.7% compared with -15.3% for the Topix Small. In terms of currencies, the yen remained weak against the euro and lost nearly 3.8% in 2007. In the second quarter, a new fund, Metzler Japanese Equity, was selected for the “core portfolio” segment. The manager reduced the more opportunist segment of the portfolio, through the sale of the Invesco Japanese Equity and JF Japan funds, in order to increase the more defensive segment. Exposure to small and medium caps was gradually increased following the major corrections of 2006 and continued weakness in 2007. This predominantly national positioning detracted from performance. The cash portion was maintained above 5% and was reduced towards the end of the year. Outlook After strong corrections on the Japanese market, in absolute and relative terms, valuations were reasonable and equity returns again exceeded bond yields, a strong buy sign for Japanese equities in the past. On the other hand, if domestic consumption remains low, a deterioration in the global economic situation could have damaging consequences for Japan. 31 BL SICAV with multiple Sub-Funds REPORT OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS (continued) BL-Bond Euro The bond markets had a very volatile year in 2007. The German 10-year benchmark yield went from 3.95% at the start of the year to 4.67% in July, before closing the year at 4.31%. The fallout from the subprime sector gradually spread across the entire financial sphere: interbank rates, money markets, corporate and high-yield bonds, and structured products all suffered the adverse impact of a sharp increase in aversion to risk. The ECB was prompted to make a number of cash injections into the system and called time on its cycle of raising interest rates. In mid-June, the manager decided to significantly increase the fund's sensitivity to interest rate fluctuations to 6.92, which was 20% above its benchmark index. After the fall in yields, which prompted the fund's outperformance, he then gradually reduced it to 6, the same level as the benchmark index. Outlook Pressure on European economic growth should continue to be reflected in the statistics. The ECB is still torn between inflationary risks and the need to adopt a more accommodating monetary policy. The appreciation of the euro will help limit inflationary pressures but it will also hamper European competitiveness. 32 BL SICAV with multiple Sub-Funds REPORT OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS (continued) BL-Bond Dollar The 10-year US bond yield was down from 4.70% at the start of the year to 4.03% at 31 December. In a context of defiance versus the fallout in the subprime sector, US treasury notes benefited from a flight to quality. During the year, the fund manager saw a series of cash injections to offset the rampant crisis on the interbank rate market in particular. The Federal Reserve cut its key interest rates by 100 basis points to 4.25%. The sensitivity of the BL-Bond Dollar to interest rate fluctuations was increased to 6.80 in the second quarter (in line with that of its benchmark index). Outlook The markets gradually shifted their attention from the subprime crisis to a probable US recession. But as the bad news for the economy has already been factored into current prices, the fund manager is no longer expecting US Treasury bonds to post a particularly noteworthy performance. 33 BL SICAV with multiple Sub-Funds REPORT OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS (continued) BL-Short Term Euro 2007 was a year of contrasts on the credit markets: • The first half of the year was characterised by tightening credit spreads and a buoyant primary market (new issues). • The second half saw an abrupt about-turn as the subprime crisis broke out in the US. As depreciated assets in the of crisis, aversion and was sharp widening of credit spreads in all the asset classes held by the fund. In 2007, the European Central Bank pursued its monetary tightening raising interest rates by 50 basis points to 4%. Rising inflation, growth in the M3 money supply, and risks linked to rising oil prices prompted the ECB to pursue its monetary tightening at the start of the year. Outlook We expect some volatility to persist in January (most of the US banks will be publishing their results). The fund should see gains from coupons (indexed on the EURIBOR+spread), currently offering 5%. We expect that the fall-out from widening credit spreads will gradually be reversed, which should drive the fund's positive performance. We have also reviewed the portfolio's composition and are selling off the investments we consider volatile and exposed to degradation in order to reduce NAV volatility. 34 BL SICAV with multiple Sub-Funds REPORT OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS (continued) BL-Short Term Dollar Risk aversion mounted over the year sparked by the subprime crisis: some of the consequences include significant losses announced by the main financial institutions and the broad economic slowdown. After raising interest rates four times in a row, the Fed cut its Fed funds rate by 1% over the year. Outlook We expect that the fall-out from widening credit spreads will gradually be reversed, which should drive the fund's positive performance. The fund is also expected to benefit from the steepening of the money-market curve and the resulting increase in coupons (indexed on the LIBOR rate+spread). We have also reviewed the portfolio's composition and are selling off the investments we consider volatile and exposed to degradation in order to reduce NAV volatility. 35 BL SICAV with multiple Sub-Funds REPORT OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS (continued) BL-Global Flexible After posting favourable performance in the first half of the year, the main stock market indexes dropped back during the second half. Among the main asset classes, only emerging countries ended the year with performance above 10%. The weakest stock market was - as in 2006 - the Japanese market, which fell by over 10%. For the second year in succession, bond market performance was disappointing. The JP Morgan EMU Bonds index was up 1.8% over the whole year. On the currency markets, the euro appreciated against most of the major international currencies. The US dollar, pound sterling and Japanese yen declined by 9%, 8% and 4% respectively against the euro. During the year, the weighting of equities oscillated between 60% and 65% in the first half of the year. In the second half, exposure to equities was progressively hedged through the sale of Futures to keep pace with revelations of the extent of the sub-prime crisis in the United States and as its repercussions on the financial system became increasingly apparent. At the end of December, net exposure to equities stood at 35%. The weightings of the US and European stock markets were reduced during the year in favour of Asian markets. Hedging of assets in dollars was reduced from 80% to 60% at the start of the year. Currencies other than the dollar (such as the pound sterling, the Japanese yen and other Asian currencies) are not hedged. In the bond portion, the rise in long-term interest rates in the first months of the year was used to slightly increase the weighting of bonds. The fixed-income portfolio is composed of 60% government bonds and 40% high-grade corporate bonds (KPN and Bayer). Having been reduced during the first half, the hedging of dollar-denominated assets was again increased to around 66% at the beginning of September, since the US authorities determination to stimulate their economy is not helping the appreciation of their currency. Currencies other than the dollar are not hedged. Outlook The manager will continue to adapt the composition of the portfolio based on an analysis of the economic environment and the relative valuation of the different asset classes. 36 BL SICAV with multiple Sub-Funds REPORT OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS (continued) BL-Optinvest (Euro) The bond markets have had a very volatile year. The benchmark German 10-year bond went up from 3.95% at the start of the year to 4.67% in July before closing the year at 4.31%. The fallout from the sub-prime sector progressively spread across the financial sphere: interbank rates, money markets and corporate bonds as well as high-yield bonds and structured products all suffered the full backlash of aversion to risk. The ECB was forced to make several cash injections into the system and called a halt to its policy of raising its key interest rates. When the BL-Optinvest (Euro) fund was launched in August 2007, the manager decided to implement high sensitivity to interest rate movements. The adjusted duration was thus raised to 6.6, 10% above that of its benchmark index. Subsequently, the manager took profits on the longest maturities. The exposure of BL-Optinvest (Euro) remains exclusively in sovereign bonds from eurozone issuers. At 6.0, its sensitivity is now in line with that of its benchmark index. Since its launch on 2 August 2007, BL-Optinvest (Euro) has recorded performance of +1.77%. 37 BL SICAV with multiple Sub-Funds REPORT OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS (continued) BL-Emerging Markets This fund was launched in November. The particularly uncertain macroeconomic and financial environment prompted the fund manager to restrict his allocation to 46% equities, against the neutral allocation of 75%. The 22% investment in bonds was however close to the benchmark allocation of 25%. In equities, the funds/direct line allocation is currently 29%/71%. The geographical allocation is 34.5% for Asia, 6.5% for Latin America and 5% for Eastern Europe. The equity part will be gradually increased by taking advantage of any weaknesses on the emerging markets. On the bond side, most investments (17.5%) were on euro-denominated government bonds, while awaiting the best opportunities on local currency bonds. Outlook The fund manager will remain open to changes in the portfolio's composition depending on opportunities offered by economic developments and the relative valuations of the various asset classes. 38 BL SICAV with multiple Sub-Funds REPORT OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS (continued) BL-Kingfisher FoF MARKET REVIEW: The bursting of the United States real estate bubble, a major cash crisis on the financial markets, the soaring price of oil… The global economy was sorely tested in 2007. Despite the fact that these shocks took place in a favourable environment (European household consumption was sustained by the net fall in unemployment, low corporate debt and very high profit margins), the economic prospects have deteriorated considerably since the summer. The highly indebted American consumer suffered the full force of the erosion of their purchasing power as the price of petrol and food products shot up. At the same time, the banks sharply reduced the volumes of credit they granted, so much so that the risk of a more pronounced slowdown in the world's leading economy increased dramatically. In Europe, the economic slowdown has so far been less marked, even though the European Central Bank's monetary tightening that began at the end of 2005 and the appreciation of the euro against the dollar have started to weigh on growth in the old continent. Meanwhile, the emerging markets have continued to post high growth rates. The benchmark German 10-year bond went up from 3.95% at the start of the year to 4.67% in July before closing the year at 4.31%. The fallout from the sub-prime sector progressively spread across the financial sphere: interbank rates, money markets and corporate bonds as well as high-yield bonds and structured products all suffered the full backlash of aversion to risk. The ECB was forced to make several cash injections into the system and called a halt to its policy of raising its key interest rates. Meanwhile, the Federal Reserve proceeded to cut interest rates by 100 basis points to 4.25%. REVIEW OF THE PORTFOLIOS: All sub-funds: Equities versus bonds/cash allocation: The manager maintained a prudent bias throughout the year. While the portfolio was slightly underweight in equities in the first three quarters of 2007, the portfolios became much more defensive during the 4th quarter, so that at the end of the year the weightings in the various portfolios were as follows: BL-Kingfisher FoF Equities: Equities: 89%, Cash 11% BL-Kingfisher FoF 75: Equities 68%, Bonds 23%, Cash 9% (neutral allocation 75% equities) BL-Kingfisher FoF 50: Equities 49.5%, Bonds 43%, Cash 7.5% (neutral allocation 55% equities) BL-Kingfisher FoF 30: Equities 27%, Bonds 67%, Cash 6% (neutral allocation 30% equities) Equities segment: While the strong weighting on the Asia zone was particularly beneficial, the decision to be defensive in terms of fund selection in the first part of the year deprived the portfolio of some of the excellent performance of these markets. The position on Japan, whose benchmark index, Topix, recorded performance (in euros) of -14% had a negative impact. As for the two biggest asset classes represented in the portfolio, Europe and the USA, their performance was lacklustre. The "value" funds in the portfolio, even though their under-weighting was increased throughout the year, were affected by the sub-prime crisis - this type of fund has a structurally strong bias on the financial sector that was hit hard from the summer onwards. Moreover, 2007 was a year of transition in which, after several years of strong outperformance, small caps and the "value" management style fell out of investor favour, while large caps and the "growth" style started to return to front of stage. Moreover, 2007 was a transitional year in which, after a number of years of strong outperformance, small market caps and 39 BL SICAV with multiple Sub-Funds REPORT OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS (continued) "value" management fell out of investor favour. The manager took this shift into account within the portfolio. Accordingly, the GAM Star European Systematic Value, JPM European Strategic Value, and JPM Europe Small Caps funds, which were among the biggest positions at the start of the year in the Equities Europe segment, were sold during the year. The same was true for UBAM Neuberger Berman US Equity Value in the US segment. Only for mixed funds: Bond segment: When the German 10-year Bund yield reached 4.66 in June, the manager adjusted the duration to 7.2 (which was 20% above the benchmark), a movement that turned out to be positive. At the end of October, the German 10-year bond yield stood at 4.24%. Following this relaxation, bond yields were, according to the estimates of BLFRAM bond analysts, at their “fair value”. In the current economic context, government bonds therefore offer real diversification and stabilisation for mixed portfolios and constitute a hedge against bad economic news that could have a negative effect on the equity markets. Outlook Asset allocation The announcement of major provisions by the majority of leading banking establishments, the continuing decline in real estate prices in the United States and uncertainties over the impact of the sub-prime crisis on economic activity led to a correction on the stock markets. In the recent correction, the asset classes that had escaped the stock market weakness in August, such as technology stocks and emerging market equities, were not spared. The stock market environment is likely to remain difficult in the coming months. However, the abundance of cash and attractive company valuations could mitigate these uncertain prospects. With poorer short-term prospects, the portfolio will be positioned defensively for the start of the year 2008. Target funds In 2007, it was very difficult for opportunist managers to outperform their index and quantitative managements had a hard time in a very volatile environment. The manager has always favoured conviction managers faithful to their own investment philosophy and who have established a methodology and a precise and appropriate management process. The manager will adopt the same approach for 2008. The core of the portfolio will continue to be composed of sound funds with exemplary performance history. The manager will give greater weight to thematic investments in order to be more directly exposed to secular trends which he believes offer good long-term prospects. And she will not hesitate to respond to opportunities that open up on the stock market.

Sub-Funds NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS as at 31st December 2007 NOTE 1 - PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING METHODS The financial reports of the SICAV have been drawn up in accordance with the legal and regulatory provisions on undertakings for collective investment in force in Luxembourg. a) Valuation of securities in portfolio Securities and money market instruments listed or traded on an official stock exchange are valued at the latest available closing price. For a significant part of portfolios, the prices used for the calculation of the closing Nets Assets Values were the closing prices as at 28th December 2007. Nets Assets Values, in particular for portfolios invested in US Shares, are appreciably different from what they would have been with the use of the prices as at 31st December 2007. Securities and money market instruments traded on another regulated official stock exchange, which functions regularly and is open to the public, are valued at the latest available closing price. Money-market instruments and fixed-income securities may be valued on the basis of the amortized cost, a method that takes into account constant amortization following purchase in order to reach the redemption price at maturity of the security. In an illiquid market these assets are valued with their fair value estimated on the basis of mathematical models or others alternatives methods of evaluation. Holdings of undertakings for collective investment are valued at the latest official Net Asset Value per share or at the latest estimated Net Asset Value if this is more recent than the official Net Asset Value. In this case, the SICAV must provide assurance that the valuation method used for this estimation is consistent with the valuation method used to calculate the official Net Asset Value. In the case of securities held in portfolio on the Valuation Day that are not listed or traded on an official stock exchange or other official regulated market, which functions regularly and is open to the public; or in the case of securities listed and traded on a stock exchange or other similar market whose valuation is determined using the methods described in the first and second paragraphs above but which is not representative of the true market value of these securities, the valuation is based on the probable value of the foreseeable sales price, which is estimated using prudence and good faith. The value of cash in hand or on deposit, notes payable on demand, accounts receivable, dividends and interest declared and payable but not yet received, is determined using the nominal value of these assets, unless it is deemed impossible that such value can be realised. In this case the value will be determined by deducting a sum that the Board of Directors considers to reflect the real value of such assets. Other net assets in currencies other than those of the relevant sub-fund shall be converted into the currency of the sub-fund at the average exchange rate on the closing date. b) Net realised profit or loss on the securities portfolio The net realised profit or loss on sales is calculated on the basis of the average cost of securities sold. c) Conversion of foreign currencies The consolidated financial statements of the SICAV are drawn up in euro and are the sum of the corresponding entries in the financial statements of each sub-fund, converted into euros at the exchange rate prevailing on the closing date: 1 EUR 166.3412725 JPY Japanese Yen 1.4705500 USD US Dollar 178 BL SICAV with multiple Sub-Funds NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) as at 31st December 2007 Within the various sub-funds, assets in bank as well as other net assets and the market value of securities in portfolio denominated in currencies other than that of the sub-fund are converted into the currency of the sub-fund at the average exchange rate on the closing date. Income and expenses in currencies other than those of the sub-fund are converted to the currency of the sub-fund at the exchange rate prevailing on the date the transaction takes place. d) Purchase price of securities in portfolio The purchase price of securities denominated in currencies other than those of the sub-fund is calculated on the basis of the exchange rates prevailing on the purchase date. e) Allocation of costs Non-individualised costs are allocated to the different sub-funds on a pro-rata basis based on the net assets of each sub-fund. f) Costs of formation If the launch of a sub-fund occurs after the launch date of the SICAV, the costs of formation in relation to the launch of the new sub-fund shall be charged to such sub-fund alone and may be amortized over a maximum of five years with effect from the sub-fund's launch date. NOTE 2 - COMMISSION ON SHARES ISSUED, CONVERTED AND REDEEMED Shares are issued at the Net Asset Value on the day following receipt of the subscription order, plus a maximum commission of 5%, which shall be paid to the Distribution Agents. In the case of BL-Short Term Euro and BL-Short Term Dollar, a 2% subscription fee shall be levied. Switches between sub-funds may be carried out on each "Valuation Day" by converting shares from one sub-fund into shares of another sub-fund except in case of suspension of one or both sub-funds concerned. No specific conversion fee shall be charged for share conversions, with the exception of BL-Short Term Euro and BL-Short Term Dollar. The conversion fee in this case shall be 3% (maximum) for conversions to sub-funds that are not "short term". No exit fee shall be levied for redeeming shares. NOTE 3 - MANAGEMENT FEES The management fee is payable quarterly and is calculated on the basis of the average net assets of each sub-fund for the relevant quarter. The BANQUE DE LUXEMBOURG FUND RESEARCH & ASSET MANAGEMENT S.A. charges the following annual commission for the various sub-funds: - BL-Global Bond 0.50% - BL-Global 30 1.00% - BL-Global 50 1.00% - BL-Global 75 1.00% - BL-Global Equities 1.00% - BL-Equities Horizon 1.00% - BL-Equities America 1.00% - BL-Equities Europe 1.00% - BL-Equities Dividend (launched at 30th October 2007) 0.75% - BL-Equities FoF Asia 1.50% 179 BL SICAV with multiple Sub-Funds NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) as at 31st December 2007 - BL-Equities FoF Japan 1.25% - BL-Bond Euro 0.50% - BL-Bond Dollar 0.50% - BL-Short Term Euro 0.20% - BL-Short Term Dollar 0.20% - BL-Global Flexible 1.00% - BL-Optinvest (Euro) (launched at 1st August 2007) 0.50% - BL-Emerging Markets (launched at 30th October 2007) 1.00% - BL-Kingfisher FoF Equities 1.25% - BL-Kingfisher FoF 75 1.25% - BL-Kingfisher FoF 50 1.25% - BL-Kingfisher FoF 30 1.00% NOTE 4 - SUBSCRIPTION DUTY ("TAXE D'ABONNEMENT") The SICAV is governed by Luxembourg tax law. In accordance with current legislation and regulations, the SICAV is subject to an annual subscription duty of 0.05% which is payable quarterly and calculated on the basis of the net assets at the end of each quarter. According to Article 129 (3) of the amended Law of 20th December 2002 the net assets invested in undertakings for collective investments already subject to the subscription duty are exempt from this duty. A lower rate of 0.01% is applied to BL-Short Term Euro and BL-Short Term Dollar sub-funds on an annual basis in accordance with the amended Law of 20th December 2002.

As at 31st December 2007, these three sub-funds were authorised in the countries of distribution of the SICAV BL (Germany, Austria, Belgium, France, Denmark, Sweden). 184 BL SICAV with multiple Sub-Funds NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) as at 31st December 2007 The Board of Directors decided that with effect 1st January 2008 BL-Equities Horizon would become an SRI fund, which invests universally at least two thirds of its total assets (net assets + commitments) in shares of companies that focus particular attention on their social and environmental responsibility. Consequently the fund's investment policy was adapted and may be consulted in the updated prospectus of the SICAV. NOTE 14 - VALUATION OF CERTAIN ASSETS Since the end of November 2007, following the liquidity crisis on the markets and in the absence of significant transactions on certain issues, some of the prices given by normal market price providers such as Bloomberg, Reuters or Telekurs no longer correspond to the intrinsic value of certain stocks held by the BL-Short Term Euro and BL-Short Term Dollar sub-funds. As a result, some of the assets of these two sub-funds, mostly financial sector bonds, have been valued on the basis of mathematical models using a benchmark index that reflects the average "credit spread" of the major financial issuer asset class in relation to risk-free interest rates. At 31st December 2007, assets valued according to these models represented 37.27% of the net assets of the BL-Short Term Euro sub-fund and 31.83% of the net assets of the BL-Short Term Dollar sub-fund. However, for three issuers (Sallie Mae, CIT Group and Washington Mutual), the mathematical model described above was not applicable due to significant events specific to these issuers. For these assets, a valuation committee has conducted a valuation of the assets in question, according to CDS (Credit Default Swap) spread levels on these issuers and the Committee's assessment of their fair value. At 31st December 2007, the assets valued by this Committee represented 1.08% of the net assets of the BL-Short Term Euro sub-fund and 7.38% of the net assets of the BL-Short Term Dollar sub-fund. 185
