Regulation may influence Supply & Demand Technicals
 Leverage regulations will likely
constrain the size and growth of
financial institutions balance sheets
leading to lower funding needs.
 The demand for short dated
assets we believe will continue
to be strong given improving
corporate balance sheets, and
the regulatory requirements for
minimum levels of liquidity
 Liquidity Coverage
Requirements may increase the
demand for high quality assets
and reduce demand for short-
term funding.
 We believe regulation will
impact the funding profile of
financial institutions which will
shift the supply function. The
Net Stability Funding Ratio
seeks to establish a minimum
acceptable level of stable
funding based on the liability
profile of the institution.

Leverage
Ratio
• The Leverage Ratio encourages banks to maintain
an efficient balance sheet. This could potentially
include the reduction of otherwise desirable, but lower-
yielding business such as repo and secured financing.
• Raising Tier 1 Capital may dilute existing shareholder
holdings (common equity issuance).
• A number of home state regulators are adding
supplementary leverage ratios, most notably in the US
and Europe, above the Basel minimum.
• Global Systemically Important Financial Institutions
(GSIFI1s), identified by home state regulators, typically
have much higher ratios and shorter implementation
times to adhere to.
• Reduced bank balance sheet availability for
investors. This is not limited to deposits and includes all
on- and off-balance sheet transactions.
• The value of an investor’s combined business to a
bank will decide how much balance sheet they will be
able to access.
If a bank wishes to enlarge its balance sheet,
it must increase its Tier 1 Capital
The value of an investor’s combined business
to a bank will decide how much balance sheet
they will be able to access.

Macro Themes
 Economic and policy divergence back in focus
– Growth in the US and UK again appears to be diverging from the Eurozone after a period of convergence
– As a result, markets are increasingly focused on incoming data as a guide to when the Fed and Bank of England may raise rates
 The Fed remains on track to raise rates this year; BoE rate hikes may come in 2016
– The US is nearing the Fed’s estimate of full employment and the Fed appears on track to raise rates this year
– Tighter financial conditions and sluggish wage growth may persuade the Fed to wait until December
– Stronger wage gains may be leading the Bank of England to consider a rate hike but we do not expect a move until 2016
 Eurozone growth may have peaked; ECB QE likely to continue until September 2016 or later
– Eurozone growth surprised to the upside early in 2015 but appears to have lost some momentum
– We believe inflation will undershoot ECB expectations, leading the ECB to continue QE through at least September 2016
 China slowdown is leading to divergence between EM and DM countries
– China’s economy appears to be slowing, creating downside risks for EM and DM economies geared to China
– Slower Chinese growth may have limited impact on the US unless market volatility spills over into the global financial system

Current Market Environment
The Risk / Return Tradeoff in Liquidity Investing
 As investors balance the desire for principal stability, liquidity, and yield, it is important to
remember that typically the market only allows for two goals at any one time, at the give-up
of the third goal
 In today’s market environment in particular, where absolute rate levels in the shortest-
maturity, highest-quality investments in the Europe and the U.S. are so close to zero,
incremental yield involves stability and liquidity risk
Situation
 No tolerance for any price fluctuation or
principal loss
 Immediate or unpredictable liquidity
needs
Tradeoff
 Limit yield opportunity
 Desire for return of initial investment at
end of prescribed period, without
liquidity need in the interim
 Lock up liquidity expressly or risk price
loss if need liquidity (e.g., sell at a
loss)
 Desire for return with ability to redeem
on demand or with flexible timeline
 No price stability and possibility of loss
relative to initial investment

Market Environment Presents New Challenges
Regulation and central bank action pose threats
• Persistent low and even negative rates make liquidity investing more
challenging than ever.
• Investors will need to evaluate their investment objectives of principal
preservation, liquidity and yield as the historical approach to managing
liquidity may no longer work.
Zero interest rate policies make
achieving income goals difficult
• New bank regulations are changing financing dynamics and potentially
impact fixed income liquidity
• Changes may continue to impact bank balance sheet availability
Bank Regulatory Reform
• Cash investors will have to re-evaluate options in light of new MMF
requirements.
• Changes throw the “default option” of cash into chaos at the same time as
market disruption

For Illustrative purposes only.
• Short term funding is being deemphasized with the
adoption of Basel III bank regulation. This potentially
has implications for bank balance sheet capacity.
• The availability of investment products traditionally used
by liquidity investors will change and investors need to
prepare for change.
• Products that provide optimal liquidity characteristics will
play an important role in investment portfolios.

The Benefits of Separately Managed Accounts
• SMAs provide an opportunity to diversify existing portfolio risks, including
but not limited to credit, counterparty, and interest rate riskDiversification
• SMAs provide investors with the ability to optimize book yield for a desired
level of risk
• In the developed markets, where interest rates are near zero, investors
have increased their duration and credit risk to capitalize on opportunities
and earn higher levels of income
Opportunities for Increased Book
Yield
• In a SMA the cost of liquidity is borne by the investor versus a fund
structure where investor liquidity needs are shared
• As an investor’s liquidity profile changes, the SMA guidelines can be
tailored to meet needs
Liquidity
• SMAs provide a company with the ability to customize their investment
portfolio to match their risk profile, liability structure, or other unique
considerations
• Special consideration should be given for the accounting classification and
tax policy which might influence the portfolio structure
Customization & Transparency

Option Adjusted Duration: A measure of the sensitivity of a bond’s price to interest-rate changes, assuming that the expected cash flows of the bond may change with interest rates.
Credit Adjusted Duration is a bond's option adjusted duration, adjusted for the bond's spread and the impact this may have on the bond's sensitivity to changes in interest rates.
"Yield to Worst (YTW)" is calculated by making worst-case scenario assumptions (excluding issuer default) on the bond by calculating the returns that would be received if provisions, including
prepayment, call, put, and sinking fund, are used by the issuer. YTW may be the same as YTM, but never higher. YTW does not represent the performance yield for the Fund.

General Disclosures
THIS MATERIAL DOES NOT CONSTITUTE AN OFFER OR SOLICITATION IN ANY JURISDICTION WHERE OR TO ANY PERSON TO WHOM IT WOULD BE UNAUTHORIZED OR UNLAWFUL
TO DO SO.
The strategy may include the use of derivatives. Derivatives often involve a high degree of financial risk because a relatively small movement in the price of the underlying security or benchmark
may result in a disproportionately large movement in the price of the derivative and are not suitable for all investors. No representation regarding the suitability of these instruments and strategies
for a particular investor is made.
Although certain information has been obtained from sources believed to be reliable, we do not guarantee its accuracy, completeness or fairness. We have relied upon and assumed without
independent verification, the accuracy and completeness of all information available from public sources.
Goldman Sachs does not provide accounting, tax, or legal advice. Notwithstanding anything in this document to the contrary, and except as required to enable compliance with applicable securities
law, you may disclose to any person the US federal and state income tax treatment and tax structure of the transaction and all materials of any kind (including tax opinions and other tax analyses)
that are provided to you relating to such tax treatment and tax structure, without Goldman Sachs imposing any limitation of any kind. Investors should be aware that a determination of the tax
consequences to them should take into account their specific circumstances and that the tax law is subject to change in the future or retroactively and investors are strongly urged to consult with
their own tax advisor regarding any potential strategy, investment or transaction.
References to indices, benchmarks or other measures of relative market performance over a specified period of time are provided for your information only and do not imply that the portfolio will
achieve similar results. The index composition may not reflect the manner in which a portfolio is constructed. While an adviser seeks to design a portfolio which reflects appropriate risk and return
features, portfolio characteristics may deviate from those of the benchmark.
Index Benchmarks
Indices are unmanaged. The figures for the index reflect the reinvestment of all income or dividends, as applicable, but do not reflect the deduction of any fees or expenses which would reduce
returns. Investors cannot invest directly in indices.
The indices referenced herein have been selected because they are well known, easily recognized by investors, and reflect those indices that the Investment Manager believes, in part based on
industry practice, provide a suitable benchmark against which to evaluate the investment or broader market described herein. The exclusion of “failed” or closed hedge funds may mean that each
index overstates the performance of hedge funds generally.
This information discusses general market activity, industry or sector trends, or other broad-based economic, market or political conditions. It also pertains to past performance or is the basis for
previously-made discretionary investment decisions. This information should not be construed as a current recommendation, research or investment advice. It should not be assumed that
investment decisions made in the future will be profitable or will equal the performance of investments discussed in this document. Any mention of an investment decision is intended only to
illustrate our investment approach or strategy, and is not indicative of the performance of our strategy as a whole. Any such illustration is not necessarily representative of other investment
decisions. A complete list of past recommendations may be available on request. Please see additional disclosures.

This could potentially include the reduction of otherwise desirable, but lower- yielding business such as repo and secured financing. • Raising Tier 1 Capital may dilute existing shareholder holdings (common equity issuance). • A number of home state regulators are adding supplementary leverage ratios, most notably in the US and Europe, above the Basel minimum. • Global Systemically Important Financial Institutions (GSIFI1s), identified by home state regulators, typically have much higher ratios and shorter implementation times to adhere to. • Reduced bank balance sheet availability for investors. This is not limited to deposits and includes all on- and off-balance sheet transactions. • The value of an investor’s combined business to a bank will decide how much balance sheet they will be able to access.

Option Adjusted Duration: A measure of the sensitivity of a bond’s price to interest-rate changes, assuming that the expected cash flows of the bond may change with interest rates. Credit Adjusted Duration is a bond's option adjusted duration, adjusted for the bond's spread and the impact this may have on the bond's sensitivity to changes in interest rates. "Yield to Worst (YTW)" is calculated by making worst-case scenario assumptions (excluding issuer default) on the bond by calculating the returns that would be received if provisions, including prepayment, call, put, and sinking fund, are used by the issuer. YTW may be the same as YTM, but never higher. YTW does not represent the performance yield for the Fund.

Derivatives often involve a high degree of financial risk because a relatively small movement in the price of the underlying security or benchmark may result in a disproportionately large movement in the price of the derivative and are not suitable for all investors.
