Prospectus & Financial Reports

IMPORTANT NOTES:

The Prospectus is distributed, and made available, by State Street Global Advisors Singapore Limited in electronic form on the internet ("Electronic Prospectus") and in paper form ("Paper Prospectus"). State Street Global Advisors Singapore Limited has taken steps to ensure that in distributing the Electronic Prospectus, the contents of the Electronic Prospectus is identical to the corresponding Paper Prospectus. However, due to technical difficulties, the appearance of the Electronic Prospectus will not be identical to the Paper Prospectus. Any supplement or subsequent amendment to the Prospectus will be made to both the Electronic Prospectus and the Paper Prospectus. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, due to the risk that the Internet may be subject to interruption, transmission blackout, delayed transmission due to Internet traffic or incorrect data transmission due to the public nature of the Internet, recipients downloading the Electronic Prospectus should be aware of such risks.

The Prospectus is published in connection with the offer of PAIF units in Singapore and in Hong Kong. No action has been taken to permit the offer of units or the distribution of the Prospectus in any jurisdiction outside Hong Kong and Singapore.

Accordingly, the Prospectus may not be used for the purpose of, and does not constitute, an offer or invitation in any jurisdiction or in any circumstances in which such an offer or invitation is not authorized or to any person to whom it is unlawful to make such an offer or invitation. The distribution of the Prospectus and the offering of units in certain jurisdictions may be restricted and accordingly persons into whose possession the Prospectus comes are required to inform themselves about and to observe such restrictions. Details of a number of these restrictions in respect of certain jurisdictions are set out in the Prospectus under the section entitled "Selling Restrictions".

No offer of units can be made in any jurisdiction in which such offer is illegal. No public offer of units is intended in any jurisdiction (other than Hong Kong and Singapore) which distinguishes between public offers and private placings of securities.

Please provide your address and name for downloading PAIF's Prospectus in PDF format. The information provided only applies to downloading the Prospectus this time. You will be required to provide such information again for any subsequent requests on downloading PAIF's Prospectus.

Investment involves risks. The fund is not promoted, sponsored, recommended, issued or guaranteed by any member of the EMEAP member central banks and monetary authorities. The fund is not guaranteed or endorsed by the governments of the eight investment markets. Investors should read the prospectus in full for important information about PAIF (and in particular the "Risk Factors" section) before making investment decision of investing in PAIF. The information on this website is for informational purposes only and is not intended as an offer for the sale of, nor a solicitation of as for the purchase or sale of, securities or investment services, nor an invitation to invest in PAIF.

Investors should be aware of that PAIF is different from a typical Unit Trust. Redemption of PAIF's units could only be executed in substantial size through designated dealers and the listing of PAIF on the Stock Exchange does not guarantee a liquid market for the units. PAIF's units are traded on the stock exchange at market price, which may be different from the net asset value per unit of the fund, and the fund may be delisted from the stock exchange. The semi-annual distributions are dependent on PAIF's performance and are not guaranteed.
