</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><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 3.67% in U.S. dollar terms
in March. Foreign investors net sold NT$18.4&nbsp;billion, while local
institutions and proprietary traders net bought NT$ 4.9&nbsp;billion
and NT$ 4.2
billion, respectively. In terms of sector performance, the tourism and the
construction sectors outperformed, rising by 8.9% and 15.7% month-over-month
(&#147;MoM&#148;), respectively. The retail and the technology sectors underperformed
and declined 3.8% and 1.0% MoM, respectively. On the economic front, Taiwan&#146;s
central bank raised key policy rates by 12.5bps to 3.5% to contain inflation
expectations. In February, Taiwan&#146;s consumer price index (&#147;CPI&#148;) rose 3.89%
year-over-year (&#147;YOY&#148;), higher than the CPI&#146;s level of 3.0% in January.
Export growth and export order growth surged to 18.5% and 18.08% YoY in
February, respectively. Taiwan&#146;s seasonally-adjusted unemployment rate
declined 0.01&nbsp;percentage point to 3.94% in February.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>Fund Performance Review:</B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Taiwan Fund, Inc. (the &#147;Fund&#148;) underperformed its benchmark by 2.21% in
March. An overweight position in the operator sector and an underweight
position in the personal computer component sector contributed positively to
the Fund&#146;s performance. An underweight position in the shipping sector and an
overweight position in TFT-LCD sector negatively contributed to the Fund&#146;s
performance.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>Investment Strategy:</B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Taiwan&#146;s presidential election was completed in March and the Kuomintang
party candidate Ma Ying-jeou defeated the Democratic Progressive Party
candidate, Frank Hsieh. Stocks expected to benefit from the anticipated
easing of cross-strait restrictions continued to outperform. Whether these
stocks will continue to outperform beyond this point depends on the progress
of the implementation of the new government&#146;s cross-strait policy. In the
near term, HSBC Investments (Taiwan) Limited expects tech sentiment to remain
weak due to NT dollar appreciation and a lagging US economy. In terms of
sector allocation, the Fund has a slightly over-weight position in technology
and an under-weight position in cyclicals. The Fund holds a more neutral
position in the financial sector.
