Manager’s Report
The Odyssey Tax-Exempt Philippine Equity Fund is a Unit Investment Trust Fund (UITF) and not a bank deposit product. It is not guaranteed by BPI nor by the Philippine Deposit Insurance Corporation (PDIC). As such, units of
participation of the investor in the UITF, when redeemed, may be worth more or worth less than his/her initial investment/contributions. Due to the nature of the investments, yield and potential yields cannot be guaranteed. Any income or
loss arising from market fluctuations and price volatility of the securities held by the UITF, even if invested in government securities, is for the account of the investor. Historical performance, when presented, is purely for reference purposes
and is not a guarantee of future results. The Trustee is not liable for losses, unless upon willful default, bad faith or gross negligence. For the purpose of lodging, clearing, settlement, and delivery of securities in the Fund, the Trustee is
authorized to avail of the services of third party institutions such as but not limited to custodians which the Trustee may change or replace without prior notice to or approval from the investors. The Trustee will not be responsible for any loss
or damage suffered by the Fund as a result of the third parties’ willful default, gross negligence, or evident bad faith. Investors are advised to read the Declaration of Trust for the Fund, which may be obtained from the office of the Trustee,
before deciding to invest. For inquiries, please call: (632) 902-7032 or (632) 902-7033, email [email protected] or visit www.bpiassetmanagement.com.

Market Review. The Philippine Stock Exchange Index (PCOMP) rose 3.98% in November, closing at 5,640.45 on domestic banking M&A expectations. Average turnover was
P6.76bn, a 40.8% improvement MoM (ex-BPI cross in October). Foreigners were net buyers of $191.8mn, a contrast to the net selling in October. The Financial and Holding
sectors were the best performers at 8.26% and 7.16%, respectively. Conversely, Mining and Services lagged at -9.39% and -1.12%. PCOMP year-to-date performance soared
to a region-leading 29.01%, while the MSCI Asia Ex. Japan Index (MXASJ) improved to 15.85%.
Philippine 3Q12 GDP numbers beat expectations, coming in at 7.1% versus the 5.4% consensus. Public construction (23.7%), government spending (12%) and household
spending (6%) were notable contributors. Corporate earnings results were generally in-line, with PCOMP third quarter income growth of 12% year-on-year (YoY), bringing 9-
month earnings growth to 25.6% YoY.
Talks of Bank of the Philippine Islands acquiring Philippine National Bank surfaced during the second half of the month, reportedly involving a share swap based on a P96/share
(1.7x P/B) valuation for the latter. No specifics have been officially released, though discussions between the two have contributed to the financial sector’s outperformance, as
investors took positions on other likely acquisition targets.
The SEC announced that companies in breach of the 40% foreign ownership limit would be given a five-year “curing period” to comply.
Fund Performance. The Fund rose 1.86% in November, underperforming the benchmark PCOMP’s 3.98%. The 212bps underperformance primarily came from the fund’s
overweight position in the mining sector.
Fund Strategy. Given the Philippine’s healthy macroeconomic factors, domestic-consumption driven economy and positive corporate earnings, we maintain our overweight on
domestic equities.
