Mutual Funds Association of Pakistan:

Mutual Funds Association of Pakistan (MUFAP) is the trade body for Pakistan’s multi billion
rupees asset management industry. The money our members manage is in a wide variety of
investment vehicles including stocks, bonds, money market instruments, government
securities and bank deposits. Our role is to ensure transparency, high ethical conduct and
growth of the mutual fund industry. MUFAP was formed in 1996 by Mr. Zaigham Mahmood
Rizvi, ex-Chairman and founder member, and was formally licensed in 2001 as a public
limited company (by guarantee) under Section 42 of the Companies Ordinance, 1984 by
Ministry of Commerce (MOC) and is thus a quasi legal entity. After the establishment of
MUFAP in 1996, private and foreign firms were allowed to float open-ended funds for the
general public. This time also saw the stock market’s performance scale new heights as a
result of positive government policies and incentives, registering a growth of more than 15
times in the net assets of the mutual funds between 2000-2008. Mutual Funds were initially
overseen by the Corporate Law Authority (“CLA”) under its Securities Wing. The CLA, then
a division of the Ministry of Finance, was gradually transformed and made independent as the
Securities and Exchange Commission of Pakistan (“SECP”) as part of the Capital Market
Development Program (CMDP) initiative of the Asian Development Bank undertaken for
Pakistan. The CMDP envisaged formation of four types of Self-Regulated Organizations
(“SROs”) to function under the SECP:

1. Stock Exchanges recognized as separate SROs;

2. Mutual Funds Association of Pakistan (MUFAP);
3. Leasing Association of Pakistan (LAP); and
4. Modaraba Association of Pakistan (MAP).
MUFAP’s role is to establish the essential codes and standards within the industry to
ensure the trust and confidence of investors and build the industry as a whole. MUFAP’s
core objectives encompass:
1. Overseeing industry compliance under prescribed prudential standards;
2. Perform onsite supervision based on agreed criteria;
3. Conducting registration and testing/ examinations;
4. Developing cooperative programs with governmental agencies and industrial
organizations to resolve problems affecting investors;
5. Liaising between the industry and SECP and other concerned government
bodies to highlight and resolve issues affecting the mutual fund industry; and
6. Presenting budgeting proposals and other recommendations to the SECP for
the development of the industry.

Underlying Risk & Mitigates

Subsequent investment into the Scheme shall be for a minimum of Rs. 1,000/- per transaction,
with no applicable maximum amount.
Investors are advised that all investments in mutual funds and securities are subject to market
risks. A targeted return/dividend range cannot be guaranteed. It should therefore be clearly
understood that the portfolio of POAIIF is subject to market risk and other risks inherent in all
such investments. The risk emanates from various factors that include, but are not limited to:
1. Equity Risk - Companies issue equities, or stocks to help finance their operations and
future growth. A company’s performance outlook, market activity and the larger economic
picture influence the price of its shares. When the economy is expanding, the outlook for
many companies will be good and the value of their stocks should rise. The opposite is also
true. Usually, the greater the potential reward, the greater would be the risk. For small
companies, startups, resource companies and companies in emerging sectors, the risks and
potential rewards are usually greater. Some of the products and services offered by
technology companies, for example, can become obsolete as science and technology advance.
2. Credit Risk - Credit risk is comprised of default risk, credit spread risk and downgrade risk.
Each can have a negative impact on the value of a fixed-income security including money
market instruments.
a) Default risk is the risk that the issuer of the security will not be able to pay the obligation,
either on time or at all.
b) Credit spread risk is the risk that there will be an increase in the difference between the
return/mark-up rate of an issuer’s bond and the return/mark-up rate of a bond that is
considered to have little associated risk (such as a government guaranteed bond or treasury
bill). The difference between this return/mark-up rates is called a “credit spread”. Credit
spreads are based on macroeconomic events in the domestic or global financial markets. An
increase in credit spread will decrease the value of fixed income securities including money
market instruments.
c) Downgrade risk is the risk that a credit rating agency will reduce the credit rating of an
issuer’s securities. Downgrades in credit rating will decrease the value of those securities
including Shariah compliant money market instruments.
3. 3. Derivative Risk - Derivatives may be used to limit or hedge potential losses associated
with investments. This process is called “hedging”. The hedging strategy may not be effective
and there is no guarantee that a market will exist when a Fund wants to buy or sell the
derivative contract. There is also no guarantee that an acceptable counterpart will be willing
to enter into the derivative contract. The counter-party to the derivative contract may not be
able to meet its obligations or the Exchanges on which the derivative contracts are traded may
set daily trading limits, preventing a Fund from closing out a particular contract. If an
Exchange halts trading in any particular derivative contract, a Fund may not be able to close
out its position in that contract. The price of a derivative may not accurately reflect the value
of the underlying security or index.
4. Government Regulation Risk - Government policies or regulations are more prevalent in
some sectors than in others. Funds that invest in these sectors may be affected due to change
in these regulations or policies, which directly or indirectly affect the earnings and/or the cash
flows and/or any governmental or court orders restraining payment of capital, principal or
income.
5. Voluminous Purchase/Redemption of Fund Units Risk - Any significant transaction made
by any investor could significantly impact a Fund’s cash flow. If the third party buys large
amounts of Units of a Fund, the Fund could temporarily have a high cash balance.
Conversely, if the third party redeems large amounts of Units of a Fund, the Fund may be
required to fund the redemption by selling securities at an inopportune time. This unexpected
sale may have a negative impact on the performance of the investment.
6. Country or Political Risks - is the uncertainty of returns caused by possibility of a major
change in political or economic environment of the country such as
a. Breakdown of law and order, war, natural disasters, etc
b. Any Government actions, legislative changes or court orders restricting payment of
principal or income
c. Any enactment by government of Foreign exchange restrictions
d. Any governmental or court orders restraining payment of capital income
