| Client Base Our client base is diverse and includes clients in the Benelux Nordic region
(including Belgium, Norway, Sweden, Finland, the Netherlands, Luxembourg, Denmark, Lithuania, Estonia, Latvia,
Spain and Portugal). We provide investment solutions for pension funds, insurance companies, banks and other
asset managers, as well as third party distributors such as fund-of-funds, private banks and brokers.
We continuously monitor and analyse the fast-changing global and local investment environment to provide
informed advice and capitalise on opportunities often overlooked by other managers. Together with regular
feedback from clients and our own rigorous research, we formulate and develop new ideas and products to add
value for clients within this dynamic financial landscape.
Global Strength SSgA's global investment network operates in local markets worldwide and enables us to
capitalise on new investment opportunities. Our clients benefit from this. We have offices, operations and
research capacity in all major markets. The combination of our size and diverse client base generates
cross-trading opportunities and potential cost-savings for our clients. We provide broad expertise in managing
strategies across virtually every asset class, capitalization range, investment approach, region and style.
These strategies are available in passive and active management styles, and can be implemented through segregated
or pooled vehicles.
