Investment Philosophy:High Quality Growth At Sensible Prices
Page 8
We believe there is a close correlation between earnings
growth and stock price appreciation over time. By
identifying sensibly priced high quality companies that can
grow earnings faster than the market on a sustainable basis,
we believe we will be able to achieve superior returns for
our clients.

Investment Approach: Bottom-up, Concentrated and Unconstrained
Page 9
Fundamental bottom-up approach that integrates
elements of growth investing (growth and stability of
earnings) with a strict valuation discipline in a longer
term context
Concentrated because more diversification leads to
flatter returns and index-like risk characteristics
We try to avoid portfolio anomalies arising from
benchmark-dictated constraints

The index comparisons in this presentation are provided for informational purposes only and should not be used as the basis for making
an investment decision. Further, the performance of the composite and the Index may not be comparable.
Investments discussed in the presentation are hypothetical investments and there is no assurance that Vontobel will make any
investments with the same or similar characteristics as the hypothetical investments presented. The hypothetical investments are
presented for discussion purposes only and are not a reliable indicator of the performance or investment profile of the composite.
Any projections contained in this presentation are based on a variety of estimates and assumptions. There can be no assurance that the
assumptions made in connection with the projections will prove accurate, and actual results may differ materially. The inclusion of
projections should not be regarded as an indication that Vontobel considers the projections to be a reliable prediction of future events
and projections should not be relied upon as such.
This disclaimer applies to this presentation and the oral or written comments of any person presenting it.
The inclusion in the composite of the performance of wrap accounts and private client assets could result in a material difference in the
performance returns.
There can be no assurance that investment objectives will be achieved. Clients must be prepared to bear risk of a total loss of their
investment.
As fees are deducted quarterly, the compounding effect will be to increase the impact of the fee by an amount directly related to the
gross account performance. For example, on an account with a 0.5% fee, and gross performance of 20% over one year, the compounding
effect of the fee will result in performance of approximately 19.4%. A $10,000 initial investment would grow to approximately $14,256
gross of fees, versus $14,000 net of fees, over a two-year period.

Emerging Markets Equity Composite includes all discretionary accounts, excluding wrap accounts and private client assets, that invest mainly in equity securities of issuers located in emerging market countries in Asia, Latin America, Africa, and Europe. Results of the composite are shown compared to the Morgan Stanley Capital International - Emerging Markets Index (the “MSCI Emerging Markets Index”), an unmanaged index based on share prices of a select group of global emerging market stocks that are available to global investors. The benchmark is used for comparative purposes only and generally reflects the risk or investment style of the investments in the composite. The index is a free float-adjusted market capitalization index of approximately 750 stocks that is designed to measure equity market performance in 21 emerging markets countries. The index is calculated on a total return basis with gross dividends reinvested, but does not reflect fees, withholding taxes or other investment expenses, and is expressed in U.S. Dollars. Investments made by the Company for the portfolios it manages according to respective strategies may differ significantly in terms of security holdings, industry weightings, and asset allocation from those of the MSCI Emerging Markets Index. The minimum account size for this composite is $1 million.
Vontobel Asset Management, Inc. ("VAMUS") claims compliance with the Global Investment Performance Standards (GIPS®) and has prepared and presented this report in compliance with the GIPS standards. VAMUS has been independently verified for the periods between January 1, 2001 through June 30, 2011. Verification assesses whether (1) the firm has complied with all the composite construction requirements of the GIPS standards on a firm-wide basis and (2) the firm’s policies and procedures are designed to calculate and present performance in compliance with the GIPS standards. The Emerging Markets Equity composite has been examined for the periods between January 1, 1994 through June 30, 2011. The verification and performance examination reports are available upon request.
VAMUS is an investment advisory firm registered under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 and a subsidiary of Vontobel Holding AG, Zurich, Switzerland. For GIPS purposes, the firm is defined as all institutional accounts at Vontobel Asset Management, excluding wrap accounts and private client assets. The firm maintains a complete list and description of composites, which is available upon request. Policies for valuing portfolios, calculating performance, and preparing compliant presentations are available upon request.
Results are based on fully discretionary institutional accounts under management, including those accounts no longer with the firm, and excluding wrap accounts and private client assets. Net composite performance is presented after the deduction of foreign withholding taxes. Capital gains, dividends and interest income received may be subject to withholding taxes imposed by the country of origin and such taxes may not be recoverable. Past performance is not indicative of future results.
No portfolios contained in this composite were carved out from balanced portfolios or multi-manager portfolios currently or historically. Leverage and short positions are not used in the composition of client portfolios. Derivatives in the form of forward currency contracts are used in the composition of client portfolios for opportunistic currency hedging.
The Vontobel Global Emerging Markets Fund, an unregistered private investment trust, pays a bundled fee, the components of which include: investment management fees; custodial fees; legal fees; and, other administrative expenses. Bundled-fee portfolios as a percentage of composite assets at year-end are as follows: 3.5% in 2007, 3.1% in 2008, 3.9% in 2009, 2.1% in 2010.
The U.S. Dollar is the currency used to express performance. Returns include the effect of foreign currency exchange rates. Returns are presented gross and net of management fees and include the reinvestment of all income. The gross rates of return are presented before the deduction of investment management fees, other investment-related fees, and foreign withholding taxes and after the deduction of brokerage commissions and transaction costs. An investor’s actual return will be reduced by investment advisory fees. The net rates of return are presented after the deduction of investment management fees, brokerage commissions, transaction costs and bundled fees. Such investment management fees are actual fees, as distinguished from model fees, and do not contain any performance-based fee components.
The standard annual management fees charged by the Company for the Composite are: 0.95% on the first $100 million, 0.85% over $100 million. Certain accounts may have higher management fees than the standard fee schedule. The Company’s investment advisory fees are further described in Part II of its Form ADV.
The Emerging Markets Equity Composite was created October 31, 1992. Compliance with GIPS has been verified firm-wide by Ashland Partners & Company LLP from January 1, 2005 through June 30, 2011. In addition, a performance examination was conducted on the Emerging Markets Equity Composite beginning January 1, 2005. For the period January 1, 2001 through December 31, 2004, the Company was verified firm-wide by, and the performance results of the Emerging Markets Equity Composite were examined by, Ernst & Young LLP. Performance results from January 1, 1994 to December 31, 2000 have been examined by PriceWaterhouseCoopers.
