<DIV align="center" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 18pt"><B>Portfolio Review</B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B>Market review:</B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Taiwan Stock Exchange Index (&#147;TAIEX&#148;) rose by 3.5% in U.S. dollar terms in September.
Both foreign investors and proprietary traders were net buyers and bought NT$ 78.8&nbsp;billion and NT$
6.1&nbsp;billion, respectively. Local institutions were net sellers and sold NT$ 5.8&nbsp;billion. On the
economic front, Taiwan&#146;s Central Bank raised the discount rate to 2.625% from 2.50%. This is the
ninth consecutive time since September&nbsp;2004 that the Central Bank has raised the discount rate. We
anticipate the Central Bank will take steps to steer interest rates to a neutral level after the
fourth quarter of 2006. Taiwan&#146;s export orders grew 18.3% to a record high US$ 26.2&nbsp;billion in
August. Orders from all major trading partners grew robustly. Although annual growth of measures of
the money supply both fell in August; market liquidity still appears to be abundant for the long
term. Sluggish financial indicators weakened on Taiwan&#146;s leading index in August. The continued
rise of non-financial indicators, such as exports and employment figures, will be the key to the
strengthening of the leading index. In terms of sector performance, construction (&#043;9.7%) and
financial (&#043;7.3%) outperformed other sectors in September due to the appreciation of real estate
and merger and acquisition activity. On the other hand, technology (&#043;2.8%) was an underperformer in
September as investors took profits and invested in non-technology sectors.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B>Fund Performance Review:</B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Fund underperformed its benchmark by 2.3% in September. Overweight positions in the
electronic component sector and underweight positions in the plastics sector
contributed positively. Overweight positions in the packaging and testing sector and Printed
Circuit Board (&#147;PCB&#148;) substrate sector negatively contributed to performance.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B>Investment Strategy:</B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Despite ongoing political disruption, the rebound of the TAIEX continues as global stock markets
are performing strongly (for example, the Dow Jones has reached new highs) amid falling oil prices.
Following the strong run in July and August, the momentum of technology shares has slowed in
September with funds showing clear signs of flowing into China-concept stocks (in
anticipation of continuing appreciation of the renminbi) and financials (triggered by Standard
Chartered&#146;s recent move to acquire Hsinchu Commercial Bank at a high price). HSBC Investment
(Taiwan) Limited (&#147;HSBC Taiwan&#148; or the &#147;Adviser&#148;) expects short-term buying interest in the
technology sector to emerge again when technology companies start holding analyst meetings and
releasing financial results for the third quarter of 2006 in October. The expectation is that most
of the numbers should be impressive.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Although slightly increased lately, long margin remains at an extremely low level, signaling
that retail investors are still conservative(possibly due
to the political situation). Meanwhile, foreign investors continue to buy most likely because
of the market&#146;s low valuations, superior earnings growth and high exposure to the technology
sector , which is moving into the high season. HSBC Taiwan continues
to believe that any significant upside for the TAIEX is
unlikely in the short term due to uncertainty surrounding U.S. consumption, continued political
disruption, and a lack of new major products/applications to drive technology demand in the
fourth quarter of 2006. Long-term money is in general staying out of the market, waiting for the
confirmation of year-end sell-through data before rebuilding positions aggressively.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Moving into the fourth quarter of 2006, HSBC Taiwan may add some non-technology positions including
stocks that are benefiting from falling raw material costs and/or from continued strong China
demand. In addition, HSBC Taiwan will look into certain deep-valued financials which may be ready
to rebound. Technology, however, remains HSBC Taiwan&#146;s favorite sector in the medium term,
particularly DRAM, handset, and packaging &#038; testing. HSBC Taiwan remains underweight in operators.
HSBC Taiwan believes that a more sustainable and significant pick-up in technology fundamentals
will take place from the fourth quarter of 2006 and onwards.
