Highlights

0    The CS FX Factor Index showed a stable  performance in February,  declining
     by a modest 0.03% in difficult market  conditions.  Year to date, FX Factor
     yielded an excess return of -0.66%, with a realised volatility of 4.23%.

0    Market  appetite for risk  continued  to drift lower amid ongoing  concerns
     about Greece's fiscal  position and the surprise  discount rate hike in the
     US.

0    Against this  background,  Carry continued to contribute  negatively to the
     overall index  performance  in February,  while Value  retraced some of the
     strong gains reported in January.

0    On the positive side, Momentum, Growth, Terms of Trade and Emerging Markets
     posted  moderate  gains  in  February,  but  with  substantial  intra-month
     volatility.
