Directors’ Comments

The Directors present the Semi-Annual Report and Accounts for HSBC Global Investment Funds for period ending 30 September 2010.

HSBC GIF Funds – Interim Report --- 1 April 2010 to 30 September 2010

Investment Manager comments regarding the performance during the period.

Reserve Sub-Fund

HGIF Euro Reserve

For the six month period ending 30 September 2010, the Fund returned 0.14% net of fees, against a benchmark return of 0.39% (European Overnight Index Average – EONIA). During the period, the European Central Bank decided to keep its refinancing interest rate at 1.00% to continue to support growth. The amount of excess liquidity in the inter-banking system has driven the EONIA, which was still historically low in the first part of the period. In July, this amount was reduced. As a consequence, the EONIA increased slightly. The normalisation process will probably continue to operate until year end. Despite some government debt concerns, the Eurozone is holding up pretty well. Latest data shows good growth recovery, despite the prospects for the coming months remaining uncertain with poor labour markets and austerity policies. The Manager remained cautious during the period and maintained liquidity within the Fund by investing mainly in short dated government bonds.

Bond Sub-Funds

HGIF Brazil Bond

For the six month period ending 30 September 2010, the Fund returned 9.33% (net of fees share class A), compared with a benchmark return of 10.74%. Markets have been quite volatile in the period up to mid June, due to the renewed fears of a global credit-crunch arising from the problems in Europe, causing the BRL to lose ground, especially in May. The currency remained relatively stable in the period that anticipated the definition of the conditions of the Petrobras IPO, as the uncertainties balanced the positive mood for emerging markets. The perception of the possible resuming of quantitative easing by the Federal Reserve caused the USD to lose ground, and this had a positive effect on the BRL. The Fund remained fully exposed to the currency. With the pick-up in the local economy and inflation expectations observed during Q1, the Central Bank increased the basic interest rate from to 8.75% to 10.75%. The rate hike was interrupted in August, with the perception of lower current inflation figures, and rates are expected to remain on hold until year end. The strong flows from foreigners into the local market forced the authorities to increase the IOF flat fee to fixed income investments to 6% (from 2%). However, in an environment of low rates around the globe, demand for local fixed income kept local rates well bid. During this period, duration was increased in order to benefit from the higher yields and inflation linked bonds were added, given the strength in local demand.

HGIF Euro Core Bond

For the six month period ending 30 September 2010, the Fund returned 2.76% (net of fees, Class AC) against a benchmark return of 2.48% (Barclays Euro aggregate Corporate Total return Index). Credit spreads widened dramatically from March to the end of June 2010 with a generic iTraxx Main moving from 77 bps to 133 bps. The Fund underperformance during this period was attributed to its overweight position on private issuers versus Government issuers. This underperformance was mitigated with a strong underweight in Greece, Portugal and Spain versus Germany, France and Italy. Q3 2010 was quite different regarding credit spreads which tightened slightly (from 133 bp to 111 bp) but PIIGS (Portugal, Italy, Ireland, Greece and Spain) remained weak. The Fund benefited strongly from these changes and returned 2.84%, compared to a benchmark return of 2.20%. The sectorial positioning, overweight financials versus corporates, was kept unchanged as the most prominent European banks significantly improved their credit quality over the last eighteen months. During the last three months, the risk-exposure was reduced while keeping an overweight on credit.

Directors’ Report (continued)

HGIF Euro Core Credit Bond

For the six month period ending 30 September 2010, the Fund delivered a return of 3.08% (net of fees share class AC) compared with a benchmark return of 3.17% (100% Iboxx Euro Corporate). The top-down overweight credit was retained for the entire period under review, while staying underweight on issuers from peripheral European countries. Excessive budget deficit worries on fiscal gap in these countries triggered important volatility in credit market in May and June, with the most important spread widening occurring in the financial sector. The Fund suffered from its overweight on subordinated financials during this period, as the market stabilised holdings were added, always following the qualitative issuer selection process, these bonds became very well bid after the proposal on Basel 3. Both beta and sector allocation were monitored closely in the last months. Holdings on cyclical names were reduced.

HGIF Euro High Yield Bond

For the six month period ending 30 September 2010, the Fund returned 3.92% (net of fees share class AC) while the benchmark returned 4.99% (100% Merrill Lynch Euro High Yield Constraint BB-B). While market spreads were roughly the same at the end of March and at the end of September, the market volatility during this six-month period was quite high: the market dropped significantly in May and June before rallying in July, August and September. This volatility was the consequence of the uncertainty surrounding the fiscal situation of sovereigns in the European periphery. Financials were the weakest sector, which detracted from Fund performance as it was overweight in this sector. This sectorial positioning is unchanged as the most prominent European banks have significantly improved their credit quality over the last eighteen months. The overall Fund positioning was also relatively stable over the period with an investment ratio which was kept slightly above 100% (using Credit Default Swaps) in order to keep a relatively high exposure to a market which was also viewed as attractive.

HGIF Global Core Plus Bond

For the six month period ending 30 September 2010, the Fund returned 6.0% (net of fees Class AC), compared with a benchmark return of 7.3% (Barclays Capital Global Aggregate Bond Index). During the period under review, there was a sustained fall in government bond yields: in the second calendar quarter, the Euro crisis prompted a move into higher quality government bonds such as the US, Germany and the UK; and in the third quarter, US Federal Reserve economic caution and discussion about further quantitative easing prompted further buying of government debt. While government yields fell sharply over the period, corporate yields did not fall by the same amount so the yield spread between these two markets widened. The fundamentals of the corporate sector continued to be good with good operating results, growing free cash flow and falling leverage. The Fund underperformed over the six month period, primarily due to an underweight position in government bonds and overweights in corporates.

HGIF Global Emerging Markets Bond

For the six month period ending 30 September 2010, the Fund returned 9.7% gross of fees compared with the benchmark return of 9.6%. The Fund continued to outperform its benchmark over the period under review, with the strongest outperformance coming in months of July and September. The asset class performed well as a whole, with a small drop in May as the pace of the global recovery was once again questioned, causing a sell off in the market. The Fund’s outperformance was driven by small off benchmark allocations in local currency, and selected country selections such as an underweight to Eastern European countries in the second quarter of the year and an overweight in Argentina in the last quarter. Security selection also helped. Emerging market debt remained constructive in general and maintenance of off-benchmark local currency debt exposure is expected to be a long term outperformer for structural reasons.

Directors’ Report (continued)

HGIF Global Emerging Markets Local Debt

For the six month period ending 30 September 2010, the Fund returned 9.1% compared to the benchmark’s return of 10.1%. Emerging local debt markets have had a mixed run over the past six months, seeing sharp losses in May as concerns over global growth drove a sell off of risky assets, but then recouping losses in July and again rallying in September as a more positive backdrop supported markets and risk-appetite was back on the table. The Fund underperformed the benchmark in the period. Selected country underweight positions hurt performance, such as an underweight to Thailand toward the end of the period. The main driver, however, was due to a relatively short duration position compared to the benchmark, which hurt performance as the markets rallied. The Fund’s duration is now closer to the benchmark and the manager continues to maintain some structural FX bets in the portfolio that it anticipates will aid performance going forward.

HGIF Global Core Credit Bond

For the six month period ending 30 September 2010, the Fund delivered a return of 3.47% (net of fees share class AC) compared with a benchmark return of 5.08% (50% Merrill Lynch Euro Corporate (USD hedged) + 50% Merrill Lynch US Corporates 1-10yr).The Fund has a strategic overweight in credit with an overweight on subordinated financials on the Euro and the USD sleeve. A core holding on Tier 1 debt was built upon on both sleeves and defensive and diversified players were chosen from bottom-up the stock-picking process. However, the Fund suffered from under exposures to duration on the USD sleeve.

HGIF Global High Income Bond

Since inception on 28 July 2010 and to the period ending 30 September 2010, the Global High Income Bond Fund returned 3.0% net of fees. The Fund has a 40% Emerging Market Debt sleeve, which performed strongly and it has benefited from exposure to high-beta names in the rallying emerging market debt asset class.

HGIF Global Inflation Linked Bond

Since inception on 30 June 2010 through to 30 September 2010, the Fund returned 2.69% (net of fees, Class I USD) marginally in line with its benchmark the Barclays World Government Inflation-Linked Bond hedged USD Index, which posted performance of 2.71%. Over the period under review, international bond markets continued to benefit from concerns over sustainability of the economic recovery in the US, expectations of an extension of quantitative easing and renewed worries about the peripheral markets in the Eurozone. Real rates decreased significantly and US Treasury Inflation Protected Securities (TIPS) strongly outperformed. A significant underexposure to duration had a relative negative contribution, which was offset by a winning country allocation. At the end of the period, the portfolio remained underexposed in sensitivity compared to the benchmark and the country allocation favours US and Japan against Eurozone, United Kingdom and Canada.

HGIF US Dollar Core Plus Bond

For the six month period ending 30 September 2010, the Fund returned 4.1% (net of fees, Class AC) versus a benchmark return of 6.1% (Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index). During the period under review, there was a sustained fall in US Treasury yields: in the second calendar quarter, the Euro crisis prompted a move into higher quality government bonds such as the US; and in the third quarter, US Federal Reserve caution over the economy and discussion about further quantitative easing prompted further buying of US government debt. While US Treasury yields fell sharply over the period, US corporate yields did not fall by the same amount so the yield spread between these two markets widened by 25 basis points. The fundamentals of the corporate sector continued to be good with good operating results, growing free cash flow and falling leverage. The Fund underperformed over the six month period, primarily due to an underweight position in government bonds and overweights in corporates.

Equity Sub-Funds

International and Regional Equity Sub-Funds

HGIF Asia ex Japan Equity

For the six-month period ending 30 September 2010, the Fund returned 12.75% (net of fees, Class AD) versus a benchmark return of 10.91% (MSCI Asia ex Japan). Against a backdrop of heightened volatility in equity markets, as investors remain sensitive to the macroeconomic environment, the MSCI Asia ex Japan was up more than 10 during the period under review. The combination of the possibility of a double-dip recession, the sustainability of China’s growth and the depth of the European debt crisis, all contributed to the markets’ behaviour. The Fund’s active positions contributed positively over the period. Stock selection in Korea and Hong Kong contributed to Fund performance, while stock picking in Singapore detracted from performance. The Fund’s overweight allocation towards Thai stocks also added to relative returns. At a sector level, stock selection within the financials and industrials sectors contributed positively to relative performance, while stock picking in the telecommunication services and utilities sectors was a negative contributor.

HGIF Asia ex Japan Equity Smaller Companies

For the six-month period ending 30 September 2010, the Fund returned 15.74% (net of fees, Class AD) compared to a benchmark return of 12.26% (MSCI Asia ex Japan Small Cap). Against a backdrop of heightened volatility in equity markets, as investors remain sensitive to the macroeconomic environment, the MSCI Asia ex Japan was up more than 10 during the period under review. The combination of the possibility of a double-dip recession, the sustainability of China’s growth and the depth of the European debt crisis, all contributed to the markets’ behaviour. The Fund’s active positions contributed positively over the period. Stock selection in Taiwan, Korea and Hong Kong contributed to performance, while stock picking in India detracted from performance. The Fund’s overweight allocation towards Philippine stocks also added to relative returns. At a sector level, stock selection in the consumer staples and IT sectors contributed positively to relative performance, while stock picking in the consumer discretionary sector was a laggard.

HGIF Asia Pacific ex Japan Equity High Dividend

For the six-month period ending 30 September 2010, the Fund returned 7.09% (net of fees, Class AD) compared to a benchmark return of 7.86% (MSCI All Country Asia Pacific Ex Japan). Against a backdrop of heightened volatility in equity markets, as investors remain sensitive to the macroeconomic environment, the MSCI Asia ex Japan was up more than 10 during the period under review. The combination of the possibility of a double-dip recession, the sustainability of China’s growth and the depth of the European debt crisis, all contributed to the markets’ behaviour. Stock selection in India contributed to Fund performance, while stock picking in Hong Kong and Singapore detracted from performance. The Fund’s overweight allocation towards Thai stocks made a negative contribution to relative returns. At a sector level, stock selection in the energy and healthcare sectors contributed positively to relative Fund performance, while stock picking in the consumer discretionary sector detracted from performance.

HGIF BRIC Equity

For the six month period ending 30 September 2010, the Fund delivered a return of 4.86% (net of fees, share class AC). By way of reference, an equally weighted index of the four MSCI indices returned 4.44% (MSCI Brazil 25%, MSCI Russia 25%, MSCI India 25%, MSCI China 25%). As the review period began, BRIC markets were hit by a host of global factors, including the continuing sovereign debt crisis in Europe, a slow-down in Chinese growth and increased concerns of a double-dip in global economic activity. The latter particularly came to the fore at the end of June. However, sentiment improved as investors handled the conflicting signals of continued sovereign debt worries which gradually abated and weaker US consumer data offset by the apparent Eurozone recovery. Markets surged in September when the US Federal Reserve hinted at further quantitative easing. Relative to the reference benchmark, both the overweight in Russia and stock selection contributed to its underperformance relative to the reference benchmark. Positions in sectors in the Russia sub-portfolio that are at a valuation discount to peers in other BRIC markets, such as oil and gas underperformed. The underweight in India, which was due to the relatively high valuations, detracted from performance. Stock selection in India was mildly negative. However, in absolute terms, the Fund's India sub-portfolios made the strongest positive contribution to performance. The Brazil sub-portfolios made the second best positive contribution to performance in both absolute and relative terms. China was the biggest contributor the relative performance through strong stock selection. Chinese automobile stocks Brilliance and Guangzhou Automobile Group were strong performers in the China portfolio.

HGIF BRIC Markets

For the six month period ending 30 September 2010, the Fund returned 4.12% (net of fees, Class YC) in US dollar terms compared with are turn of 4.4% in the MSCI BRIC index (equally weighted at country level). The renewed fears on budget deficit and debt level penalised the Russian market (-4.2%). The Brazilian market rose by 3.1% despite the new 2% tax on foreign capital inflows. Elsewhere, the Chinese and Indian markets yielded strong returns (5.5% and 12.8% respectively) as Asian economic growth remained relatively immune to the fears of a double-dip in developed countries. Looking ahead, the build up of economic growth based on internal consumption sustains Brazilian, Indian and Chinese equity market whereas Russian market will stay more dependent on commodity price expectations.

HGIF BRIC Markets Equity

For the six month period ending 30 September 2010, the Fund returned +3.7% (net of fees, share class AC) vs. a +4.54% performance for its benchmark (MSCI BRIC Index TR USD). During the fall concerns over European countries default risk continued to weigh on markets. In parallel, macro data confirmed the recovery is uneven, further highlighting the short-comings of a one-size-fits-all policy. Whilst G20 countries eventually pledged to reduce deficits at tailored paces not to stymie growth, markets continued to head south. Early in the summer another record earnings season in the US rekindled investors optimism, sending equity markets up and volatility down. As the earnings season winded down focus shifted back towards sub-par growth prospects. In the wake of a sluggish August, equities recorded their best September month in 7 decades. Upbeat macro data eased concerns regarding the pace of the economic recovery; earnings figures and M&A news supported the rally. Meanwhile, oil prices hovered around the $80 mark. The sector rotation picture was mixed, reflecting both concerns over the economic context and specifics. Consumer-related sectors (discretionary and staples) posted the best performances. At the other end of the spectrum, energy, materials and information technology lagged. Asia registered the most significant outperformance, benefiting from the strong out-performance coming from India. China also outperformed. Commodity-related countries (Brazil and Russia) underperformed the benchmark. The Fund's country allocation had a positive impact on performance, especially with the Fund's overweight exposure on Russia and the underweight exposure on India. Stock selection had a negative impact on relative performance, especially in the large cap portion of the Fund. Over the short-term, the Fund is keeping a full exposure as it is expected that BRIC equities will rise moderately despite the recent market rally.

HGIF Climate Change

For the six month period ending 30 September 2010, the Fund returned –1.90% (net of fees, share class AC) versus a –1.45% performance for its benchmark (HSBC Global Climate Change Index TR). Concerns over European countries default risk continued to weigh. In parallel, macro data confirmed the recovery was uneven, further highlighting the shortcomings of a one-size-fits-all policy. Whilst G20 countries eventually pledged to reduce deficits at tailored paces not to stymie growth, markets continued to head south. Early in the summer, another record earnings season in the US rekindled investor’s optimism, sending equity markets up and volatility down. As the earnings season wound down, focus shifted back towards sub par growth prospects. In the wake of a sluggish August, equities recorded their best September month in seven decades. Upbeat macro data eased concerns regarding the pace of the economic recovery; earning figures and M&A news supported the rally. Meanwhile oil prices hovered around the $80 mark. The sector rotation picture was mixed, reflecting both concerns over the economic context and specifics. Gas and bio-energy names posted the best performances. At the other end of the spectrum, the wind sector lagged, mainly on lower-than-expected revenue and guidance by heavyweight Vestas Wind. At odds with previous months, the diversification strategy had a negative impact on the performance. On the contrary, the stock selection strategy added value, especially among wind and industry efficiency names. Over the long-term, demographic pressure on demand and global resources depletion are supporting commodity prices and paving the way for extensive use of sustainable, clean energy sources. The International Energy Agency underscored that oil prices near $75 a barrel meant rural populations in sub-Saharan Africa should turn to solar, wind and other renewables.

HGIF Climate Change (continued)

Over the medium-term, favourable funding conditions and improved global growth prospects are providing investors with powerful incentives to invest in the sector, as reflected by the recent upsurge in M&A and IPO activity. Despite a challenging economic context and deficit issues here and there, governments worldwide remain strongly committed to promote the theme, which reinforces investors’ confidence. The strategy continues to chase quality stocks displaying attractive valuations and momentum to capture opportunities within this expanding segment.

HGIF Emerging Wealth

For the six month period ending 30 September 2010, the Fund returned +3.47% (net of fees, share class AC) compared to a +2.33% performance for its benchmark (50% MSCI The World / 50% MSCI Emerging Markets). Concerns over European countries default risk continued to weigh. In parallel, macro data confirmed the recovery is uneven, further highlighting the shortcomings of a one-size-fits-all policy. Whilst G20 countries eventually pledged to reduce deficits at tailored paces not to stymie growth, markets continued to head south. Early in the summer, another record earnings season in the US rekindled investor’s optimism, sending equity markets up and volatility down. As the earnings season wound down focus shifted back towards sub par growth prospects. In the wake of a sluggish August, equities recorded their best September month in seven decades. Upbeat macro data eased concerns regarding the pace of the economic recovery; earning figures and M&A news supported the rally. Meanwhile, oil prices hovered around the $80 mark. Emerging markets outperformed developed markets over the period, benefiting from financial stability and positive growth momentum in the area. The stock selection strategy proved successful especially among consumer-related sectors. The financial sector was a more challenging field. The Fund remained primarily overexposed to equity markets based upon positive momentum and attractive valuations, which contributed positively to the performance.

HGIF Euroland Equity

For the six month period ending 30 September 2010, the Fund returned –2.04% (net of fees, share class AC) while its benchmark returned –2.30% (100% MSCI EMU (EUR) NR). The sovereign debt crisis and deteriorating macro-economic data from the US led to currency volatility and increased risk aversion and brought a halt to the market rebound. Investors tried to get exposure to the strong economic growth emanating from the emerging world. Auto, luxury goods, chemical and capital goods outperformed while technology, construction, utilities and financials lagged. During the period, the Fund outperformed modestly the market. Key contributors to performance were found in banking, energy, transportation and utilities. During the semester, some arbitrage was made among cyclical companies and reinforced financials. The Fund remains over-exposed to telecom, financials and healthcare and under-exposed to utilities and material.

HGIF Euroland Equity Smaller Companies

For the six month period ending 30 September 2010, the Fund returned-2.38% net of fees, share class AC), while its benchmark returned-1.85% (100% MSCI EMU Small Cap (EUR) NR).The sovereign debt crisis and deteriorating macroeconomic data from the US led to currency volatility and increased risk-aversion, and brought a halt to the market rebound. Investors tried to get exposure to the strong economic growth of the emerging world (Luxury Goods, Chemicals and Capital Goods) and sectors subsidised by governments, such as auto, technology, utilities and financials lagged. Key contributors to the performance were the underweight positions in financials, and underweights in Greece, Spain, Ireland and Portugal. The Fund remains highly exposed to export companies, especially those with assets in emerging countries and companies whose stock price will benefit from consolidation in their sectors.

HGIF Euroland Growth

For the six month period ending 30 September 2010, the Fund returned -3.31% (net of fees, Class M1D), compared to a benchmark return of -1.14% (100% MSCI EMU (EUR) NR). Relative performance was negative over the period. Most of the underperformance occurred in April, as the Fund was underexposed to "Euro-sensitive" companies. Moreover, the strategy to overweight defensive growth companies at the expense of financially fragile companies and cyclical growth companies was detrimental to relative performance. Turnover was modest. Positions where earnings momentum peaked have been reduced. The proceeds were used to invest in companies able to maintain their strong earnings momentum.

HGIF European Equity

For the six-month period ending 30 September 2010, the Fund returned 1.6% (net of fees, Class P), compared to a benchmark return of 0.7% (the FTSE World Europe (RI)). European equity markets fell in the second quarter as the euro crisis developed. This involved concerns over fiscal deficits and high government debt levels of European countries such as Greece, Ireland and Portugal. The EU institutions took measures to alleviate the problems and equity markets recovered in the third quarter to provide an overall small gain over the six-month period. During the period under review, the corporate sector continued to perform well with profits rising strongly. Capital expenditure has been modest and many companies have increased dividend payments. The Fund holdings have concentrated on companies with sustainable cash flows and good balance sheets. Performance was led by companies releasing good results. In addition, one of the oil stocks was taken over. The valuation of the equity market is well below 15-year averages. With corporate earnings expected to grow through 2011, the Fund Manager envisages that investors should receive modest gains from equities over the medium-term. HGIF Global Equity

For the six month period ending 30 September 2010, the Fund returned –1.73% (net of fees, share class AC) compared to a –0.64% performance for its benchmark (MSCI World Index TR USD). Concerns over European countries default risk continued to weigh. In parallel, macro data confirmed the recovery is uneven, further highlighting the shortcomings of a one-size-fits-all policy. Whilst G20 countries eventually pledged to reduce deficits at tailored paces not to stymie growth, markets continued to head south. Early in the summer, another record earnings season in the US rekindled investor’s optimism, sending equity markets up and volatility down. As the earnings season wound down focus shifted back towards sub par growth prospects. In the wake of a sluggish August, equities recorded their best September month in seven decades. Upbeat macro data eased concerns regarding the pace of the economic recovery; earning figures and M&A news supported the rally. Meanwhile, oil prices hovered around the $80 mark. The sector rotation picture was mixed, reflecting both concerns over the economic context and specifics. Telecommunication services and consumer discretionary posted the best performances. At the other end of the spectrum, financials and information technology lagged. Northern Europe registered the most significant out performances, benefiting from a geographical rotation in Europe where the Euro countries were penalised by a sell-off. Greece and Ireland were by far the most significant underperformers. Asia outperformed, thanks to Hong Kong and Singapore. Northern American performances were close to the benchmark. The Fund’s country allocation had a positive impact on performance, especially with underweight exposures in the Euro countries (Spain, Italy, Greece and Ireland). The Fund stock selection had a negative impact on the relative performance, especially in the US portfolio which was the most challenging region in terms of correlation between the fundamentals and the equity returns. Exposure management was positive for the Fund, as the exposure in global equities was raised in the Q3 when risk aversion began to fall. Over the short-term, the Fund is keeping an overweight exposure as we expect global equities to rise moderately despite the recent market rally. HGIF Global Emerging Markets Equity

For the six month period ending 30 September 2010, the Fund delivered a return of 5.46% (net of fees, share class AC) compared with a benchmark return of 8.15% (MSCI EM Index). As the review period began, emerging markets were hit by a host of global factors, including the continuing sovereign debt crisis in Europe, a slow-down in Chinese growth and increased concerns of a double-dip in global economic activity. The latter particularly came to the fore at the end of June. However, sentiment improved as investors handled the conflicting signals of continued sovereign debt worries which gradually abated and weaker US consumer data offset by the apparent Eurozone recovery. Markets surged in September when the US Federal Reserve hinted at further quantitative easing. The most significant detractor to performance at the geographic level was the Fund's exposure to Korea. The Fund is positioned for the global economic recovery and growth in Asia. Companies in Korea, particularly in the industrial sector offer excellent access to this. However, as concerns about growth in China and global growth took hold, these sectors underperformed. Other markets that detracted from relative performance were Russia and Taiwan, which were also hit by global factors and arise in risk-aversion. Their long-term prospects remain attractive however. The Russian market is currently trading at very attractive valuations of approximately 6x forward PE, a 40% discount to emerging markets, although this gap has yet to close. This also represents a discount to its own historical 5-year average. Relative outperformance over the period was led by overweight positions in Turkey, China and Thailand. In Turkey, a market which is currently favoured, considering the country's demographics and strong growth prospects, holdings in industrials and financials were particularly strong.

HGIF Global Emerging Markets Elite

For the six month period ending 30 September 2010, the Fund delivered a return of 4.88% (net of fees, share class Y) compared with a benchmark return of 8.15% (MSCI EM Index). As the review period began, emerging markets were hit by a host of global factors, including the continuing sovereign debt crisis in Europe, a slow-down in Chinese growth and increased concerns of a double-dip in global economic activity. The latter particularly came to the fore at the end of June. However, sentiment improved as investors handled the conflicting signals of continued sovereign debt worries which gradually abated and weaker US consumer data offset by the apparent Eurozone recovery.

However, as concerns about growth in China and global growth took hold, these sectors underperformed. Other markets that detracted from relative performance were Russia and Taiwan, which were also hit by global factors and a rise in risk aversion. Their long-term prospects remain attractive however. The Russian market is currently trading at very attractive valuations of approximately 6x forward PE, a 40% discount to emerging markets, although this gap has yet to close. This also represents a discount to its own historical 5 year average. Relative outperformance over the quarter was led by overweight positions in Turkey, China and Thailand. In Turkey, a market which is currently favoured, considering the country's demographics and strong growth prospects, holdings in industrials and financials were particularly strong.

HGIF Latin American Equity

During the six month period ending 30 September 2010, MSCI LatAm was up 5.1% underperforming MSCI GEM (6.5%) and MSCI EM Asia (8.0%) (5.1%), but eventually outperforming MSCI World (-0.7%). During the second quarter of 2010, from a global perspective, volatility increased as a result of higher uncertainties on the three major themes - sovereign debt crisis in Europe, slowdown in China's growth and worries of potential double dip in US recovery. Overall, global economic data continued to send mixed signals about the sustainability of the global economic recovery and, eventually, markets were not able to distinguish between a slowing in global growth or the early stages of a more serious down-turn. Under such scenario, Brazilian equities faced a challenging environment. At a regional level, Brazil, which represents more than 36% of Latin America GDP, expanded 9.0% YoY (from 4.3% YoY in 4Q09) (fastest pace since early 1995) with domestic demand leading the way (Household consumption climbing 9.3% and investment jumping 26.0% - the fastest on record). During the period under review, Brazil also posted second quarter GDP, which ended up also being strong but with some healthy accommodation. The country posted 1.2% QoQ growth above consensus (0.7%) and with an annualised expansion of 5.1%. In Mexico, the second quarter GDP release contributed to additional increases in market expectations towards Mexican expansion in 2010 (4.52% growth; up from 4.4% previously). However, recent weakness in US economic data together with a sluggish recovery in the domestic Mexican economy positions the country in a Tier 2 type of expansion when compared to Brazil, Peru, Chile and Colombia in 2010 and 2011. The Colombian recovery lagged Brazil, Peru and Chile during 2009 and beginning of 2010. However, over the last few months, overall, economic data confirms that growth is on track. The consumer confidence index rose 9.2 points in August to 38.8, the highest level since the index was started in 2001. At a Fund level, during the period under review, HGIF Latin American Equity was up 7.78% underperforming MSCI LatAm10/40 by 0.67%. At a country level, Brazil was the most important contributor (stock picking worked well within the country) while Colombia was the country that detracted the most as we held an underweight in the country (very high valuation multiples) and eventually it was the best performing market in LatAm. At a sector level, industrials was the most important contributor (stock picking worked well within the sector) while consumer staples was the lagging one (mainly as a consequence of lagging performance of JBS - one of our biggest overweights). As we move towards the fourth quarter of 2010, LatAm equities are likely to experience a more interesting development as most countries across the region continue to post above average growth and interesting earnings results. From a global viewpoint: 1) G3 real interest rates close to zero (nurturing search for real assets -commodities, infrastructure and equities; 2) expectations on a solid US 3Q10 earnings season; 3) worst in China slowdown staying behind. All of them together are also likely to contribute for increasing appetite for Latin American equities.

HGIF Middle East and North Africa Equity

For the six month period ending 30 September 2010, the Fund delivered a return of 2.74% (net of fees) compared with a benchmark return of 2.12%. As the review period began, MENA markets were hit by a host of global factors, including the continuing sovereign debt crisis in Europe, a slow-down in Chinese growth and increased concerns of a double-dip in global economic activity. The latter particularly came to the fore at the end of June. In the third quarter, markets including MENA recovered, with an improved global outlook and the prospect of a further round of quantitative easing in the USA responsible for boosting stocks. The Fund strongly outperformed over the period. At a country level, an allocation to Saudi Arabia contributed most significantly to performance with overweight to financials and underweight to energy names primarily responsible. Exposure to Oman, Egypt and Qatar was also positive, whilst exposure to Morocco and UAE marginally detracted. At a sector level, positive stock selection in financials contributed strongly, followed by materials. Positions in utilities and telecoms dragged slightly. Market Specific Equity Sub-Funds

HGIF Brazil Equity

For the six month period ending 30 September 2010, MSCI Brazil was up 1.6% underperforming MSCI GEM (6.5%), MSCI EM Asia (8.0%) and MSCI LatAm (5.1%), but eventually outperforming MSCI World (-0.7%). During the second quarter in 2010, from a global perspective, volatility increased as a result of higher uncertainties on the three major themes - sovereign debt crisis in Europe, slow-down in China's growth and worries of potential a double-dip in US recovery. Overall, global economic data continued to send mixed signals about the sustainability of the global economic recovery and, eventually, markets were not able to distinguish between a slowing in global growth or the early stages of a more serious downturn. Under such scenario, Brazilian equities faced a challenging environment. At a local level, the first quarter 2010 GDP expanded 9.0% YoY (from 4.3% YoY in 4Q09) (fastest pace since early 1995) with domestic demand leading the way (Household consumption climbing 9.3% and investment jumping 26.0% - the fastest on record). During the referred period, Brazil also posted second quarter 2010 GDP which also was strong, but with some healthy accommodation. The country posted 1.2% QoQ growth above consensus (0.7%) and with an annualised expansion of 5.1%.At a Fund level, during the period under review, HGIF Brazil Equity was up 9.61% outperforming MSCI Brazil 10/40 by 1.71%. At a sector level, industrials was the most important contributor (stock picking worked well within the sector) while consumer staples was the lagging one (mainly as a consequence of lagging performance of JBS - one of our biggest overweights). With regards to JBS (largest beef processor globally), there were no changes in its fundamentals. The Fund suffered from negative news flow (lack of definitions on the JBS USA IPO and the Inalca Dispute - 50/50 joint venture with Cremonini Group in Inalca). Investment in JBS remains positive as a) positive outlook for beef producers in the US; 2) cattle prices in a downtrend in Brazil, leading to margins improvement; 3) synergy gains of its acquisitions; 4) geographically diversified; and 5) it has underperformed Brazilian and global peers in the last 6 months and is trading at attractive valuation. HGIF Chinese Equity

For the six-month period ending 30 September 2010, the Fund returned 2.38% (net of fees, Class AD), compared to a benchmark return of 5.60% (MSCI China 10/40). The markets saw ups and downs while investors tried to second guess Beijing’s determination towards both implementing tightening measures and trading quantity for quality in terms of China’s growth. Stock selection in the financials and consumer discretionary sectors contributed positively towards performance, but was offset by negative stock selection effects in the energy, utilities and consumer staples sectors. Allocation effects were positive in the consumer discretionary sector, where the Fund was overweight, but underweight positions in the consumer staples and telecommunication services sectors detracted from relative Fund performance.

HGIF Hong Kong Equity

For the six-month period ending 30 September 2010, the Fund returned 6.88%, (net of fees, Class AD) compared with the benchmark return of 8.00% (Hang Seng (RI) USD). The Hong Kong stock market rebounded during the reporting period, primarily driven by ample liquidity, solid corporate earnings and improving macro sentiment. Positive stock selection in consumer discretionary and energy sectors added value. The Fund was overweight in the consumer discretionary and materials sectors, which hurt performance. HGIF Indian Equity

For the six month period ending 30 September 2010, the Fund returned 12.48%, compared to 14.32% for the benchmark, underperforming the benchmark by 1.83%. The cash holding in the Fund during the period contributed approximately 61% of the total performance. From an overall attribution perspective, performance was helped by positions in energy (underweight), utilities (underweight), information technology (underweight) and healthcare (overweight), while positions in industrials (overweight), materials (overweight), consumer discretionary (overweight) and financial (underweight) hurt the performance of the Fund. HGIF Japanese Equity

For the period 1 April 2010 to 30 September 2010, the Fund returned -15.66% (net of fees, Class AC (LU0164882085), compared to a benchmark return of -15.01% (TOKYO (SE) TOPIX). The Japanese market was down over the period, as the yen strengthened to a multi-year-high against the US dollar and market tension over intervention by the bank of Japan rose. In addition, the stronger yen hurt the exporters. Investors grew increasingly more concerned about a faltering US recovery leading to a faster pace of appreciation in the yen. From a sector allocation perspective, the Fund benefited from an overweight in consumer services. Conversely, an underweight towards real estate detracted from the Fund performance. At a stock level, the portfolio did well on selecting stocks from materials and technology hardware whereas was hurt by stock selection on transportation and telecommunications. On the attribution analysis of our quantitative signals, the Fund benefited from the outperformance of valuation factors over the period. The prevailing economic conditions provide a more difficult background for Japanese equity market. In this environment, the portfolio will maintain exposure towards stocks with good value and momentum.

HGIF Korean Equity

For the six month period ending 30 September 2010, the Fund delivered a positive return of 8.36%, matching its benchmark MSCI Korea, which was up 8.34%. The market and the currency both rebounded during the period. The strong rally during September sent KOSPI to the highest point since mid-May 2008, mainly thanks to continuous inflow of foreign capital on the back of improving corporate performance and expectations of quantitative easing in the US. Sector allocation contributed positively to the Fund in general. Furthermore, an underweight in IT and an overweight in consumer discretionary added value to the Fund's performance. Stock selection, on the other hand, was mixed. Active positions in consumer discretionary and financials helped performance while the materials and industrials stocks detracted. We continue to re-orient the portfolio slightly more toward reasonably valued technology and cyclicals while keeping an overweight position in defensive consumer stocks. HGIF Russia Equity For the six month period ending 30 September 2010, the Fund returned -3.17% (net of fees, Class AC), compared to a benchmark return of -1.66% (MSCI Russia 10/40 index).Over the period, returns for the Russian market contrasted starkly, with the MSCI Russia 10/40 index falling 15.4% in Q2 before rebounding 16.3% in Q3. In the second quarter, markets globally were plagued by a number of factors, notably Eurozone sovereign debt levels, fears over Chinese policy tightening and worries surfacing of a double-dip recession. In the third quarter, however, markets rebounded, although disappointingly Russia has underperformed its Global Emerging Market and BRIC peers, in addition to key commodities including oil. Some market observers attribute this weak performance to Russia's summer drought and fires and the potentially negative impact these may have on the country's economic recovery.

HGIF Russia Equity (continued)

More positively however, a number of economic indicators are beginning to turn positive (PMI) whilst rising job and wage growth has also been exhibited. Over the past 6 months, the Fund's underperformance of the benchmark has been derived primarily on account of a large overweight to energy stocks and underweight to materials, which have outperformed. Energy stocks, which dominate the Russian market, have been out of favour globally, notably in light of the Petrobras deal overhang, the negative impact of the BP oil spill disaster and a lack of production growth among global energy majors. Despite this however, they continue to trade at incredibly attractive valuations and at a large discount to emerging markets peers. An underweight to utilities and overweight to consumer staples names contributed positively to performance. HGIF Singapore Equity

For the six month period ending 30 September 2010, the Fund returned 12.0% (net of fees, share class AC), versus the benchmark return of 15.9% (MSCI Singapore (RI)). The Singapore market rallied along with regional markets, on rising investor preference for Asian growth markets over slow developed markets, rising global liquidity, higher risk-appetite, Fund inflows and strong macroeconomic data. Asset allocation detracted from performance mainly due to our underweight in consumer discretionary (Genting, Jardine Cycle and Carriage) and cash drag. Stock selection also detracted from performance, mostly due to our underweights in outperforming index stocks such as Genting, Jardine Cycle and Carriage, Yangzijang, City Developments and an overweight in laggard Ho Bee, partly offset by overweights in defensives (Starhub, Singapore Post) and an underweight in laggard oil rig builders. HGIF Taiwan Equity

For the six month period ending 30 September 2010, the Fund delivered a positive return of 10.11%, outperforming its benchmark MSCI Taiwan, which was up 8.73%. The Taiwanese market rebounded on the back of incrementally improving investor sentiments. Notably during the period under review, investors have been turning their focus from technology to non-tech sectors. For the Fund, stock selection contributed significantly to performance. The information technology stocks were the largest positive contributor by far and the materials stocks were the largest detractor. Sector allocation was mixed during the last six month. The Fund was overweight in consumer staples and industrials, which added value, while an underweight in consumer discretionary held back performance. Residual cash holdings also cost the Fund in the rising market. It is believed that the near-term market focus would still be primarily in non-tech and pockets of technology sector which are still seeing secular growth. Therefore, the preference would be on domestic consumption given the limited upside from technology. HGIF Thai Equity For the six month period ending 30 September 2010, the Fund returned 30.0% (net of fees, share class AC), compared to a benchmark return of 31.9% (Thailand SET). The Thai market performed very strongly. Notable events during the period covered included the political disturbances during Q2. This was followed by foreign institutional buying on the back of low relative valuations versus Asian markets, a strong baht versus the US dollar, resilient economic growth, and relative outperformance which attracted investor interest. Asset allocation detracted from performance, mainly from the underweight in index small caps, consumer staples, materials, industrials, and cash drag, but partly offset by overweights in consumer discretionary, and underweight in energy. Stock was negative with underweights in CP Food, CP All, and overweights in Erawan, Siam Commercial Bank, Bangkok Bank, Phatra Securities, but partially offset by overweights in Tisco, BEC World, Asian Property.

HGIF Turkey Equity

For the six months ending 30 September 2010, the Fund returned 23.61% (net of fees, Class AC), compared to a benchmark return of 24.35% (MSCI Turkey Gross Index). Concerns on sovereign debt sustainability for some of the members in European Union triggered a sell-off across global equity markets. Later, some of macroeconomic data on the US side awakened double-dip recession fears in developed economies. However, throughout this period, the Turkish equity market outperformed both developed and emerging counterparts, exceeding its all-time-high levels. Turkey's successful fiscal performance, strong GDP growth and a gradual pick-up in employment has created a relatively favourable investment environment. Additionally, The Central Bank of Turkey, kept interest rates at historically low levels helping credit volume growth and supporting domestic demand. On the political side, referendum for constitutional amendments resulted in a market-friendly outcome, diminishing concerns on a possible coalition government, ahead of general election in mid 2011. Consequently, strong fundamentals and political stability have led to substantial interest in Turkish equity market and boosted stock prices. Turkey is expected to continue its strong economic growth in quarters ahead, hence Turkish equity market to maintain its current up-trend. HGIF UK Equity

For the six-month period ending 30 September 2010, the Fund returned 2.4% (net of fees, Class A), compared to a benchmark return of 0.2% (the FTSE All Share (RI)). The UK equity market fell with European equity markets in the second quarter as the euro crisis developed. This involved concerns over fiscal deficits and high government debt levels of European countries such as Greece, Ireland and Portugal. The EU institutions took measures to alleviate the problems and equity markets recovered in the third quarter to provide an overall small gain over the six month period. In the UK, the economy continued to grow with further recovery in manufacturing and construction. During the period under review, the UK corporate sector has continued to perform well with profits rising strongly. Capital expenditures have generally been modest and many companies have increased dividend payments. Fund holdings have concentrated on companies with sustainable cash flows and good balance sheets. Performance was led by companies releasing good results. In addition, one of the oil stocks was taken over. The valuation of the equity market is well below 15 year averages. With corporate earnings expected to grow through 2011, the Fund Manager envisages that investors should receive modest gains from equities over the medium-term. HGIF US Equity

Over the six month period ending 30 September 2010, the Fund returned –2.85% (net of fees, share class AC) versus a –2.15% performance for its benchmark (S&P 500 COMPOSITE (RI)). Macro data confirmed the recovery is uneven, further highlighting the shortcomings of a one-size-fits-all policy. Early in the summer another record earnings season in the US rekindled investors optimism, sending equity markets up and volatility down. As the earnings season winded down focus shifted back towards sub par growth prospects. In the wake of a sluggish August, equities recorded their best September month in seven decades. Upbeat macro data eased concerns regarding the pace of the economic recovery; earning figures and M&A news supported the rally. Meanwhile, oil prices hovered around the $80 mark. The instability in financial markets represents a major downside risk to global growth. The sector allocation contributed negatively to Fund performance; the underweight of outperforming defensive sectors such as telecommunications services (+14.7%) was detrimental to the Fund performance. Meanwhile, the Fund benefited from a positive stock selection within both oil and gas industries and diversified financials industries. In terms of equity market exposure, the manager remained cautious over the period as the sources of uncertainty have not disappeared yet making equities riskier than reflected by low market volatility. The strategy continues to chase quality stocks displaying attractive valuations and momentum to capture opportunities within this expanding segment.

Other Sub-Funds

HGIF European Equity Alpha

For the six month period ending 30 September 2010, the Fund achieved a total return of +3.45%. Short positions contributed a positive 5.61%, offset by a 2.16% loss among long positions. Over the same period, the MSCI Europe Index declined by 2.50% and the Fund outperformed on both the long and short portfolios. Market conditions are constantly monitored, as is economic news, investor behaviour and micro-market structure to understand their impact on the portfolio. The impact of those factors on the stock market fundamentals is rather ephemeral. At best, they merely alter the short-term course of the market. The portfolio management process is being ‘fine tuned’ to cope with the headwind caused by market climate and investor sentiment swings. It is expected to continue identifying good long and shorts candidates, and deliver attractive returns for investors.

HGIF Global Currency

For the six month ending 30 September 2010, the Fund delivered a return of -3.37% (net of fees, Class L1) USD Institutional share class, against a benchmark return of 0.07% % (3 month USD T-Bill). During the period the global currency markets showed high volatility and large intra-month movements which was mainly triggered by the uncertainty about the quantitative easing programmes. The Fund was not able to take advantage of these market conditions, and subsequently, the Fund experienced negative performance in 4 out of the 6 months. The manager continues to use a quantitatively-based methodology and employed both short-term and long-term investment strategies. The daily risk management model, which is in place to limit draw downs reduced the overall risk allocation, and hereby limited the negative performance. Going into last quarter the Fund run a reduced gross exposure which will be increased when the Fund returns to positive performance. HGIF Global Bond Market Neutral

For the six month period ending 30 September 2010, the Fund returned 0.73% (net of fees, Class AC), compared to a benchmark return of 0.38% (European Overnight Index Average - EONIA). Both drivers (relative value nominal bond driver and currency overlay) delivered a positive contribution. Over the period, 10-year nominal yields came down sharply on average in the Fund’s investment universe and reached historic lows. The easing was triggered by a slew of disappointing economic data in the US (confidence indicators, employment, housing market) and spread to other markets to varying degrees. In relative terms, speculation about more precise announcements of quantitative easing in the US and in the UK benefited the US and UK nominal bonds markets which strongly outperformed other markets. In this environment, the relative value nominal bonds driver benefited from the long exposure (on average +50%) to the US (+150bp contribution) but was penalized by the short exposure (on average -45%) to the UK market (-55bp contribution). Overall, the contribution of the driver was positive (almost 1%). The currency overlay also contributed positively to Fund performance over the period (almost +40bp). Tactical bets in favour of dollar-bloc currencies versus European currencies (3% on average) and in disfavour of the US dollar versus all other OECD currencies (1% exposure on average) delivered +30bp and +10bp contributions respectively as the US dollar depreciated against other currencies and especially versus high-yielding dollar bloc currencies (Australian and New Zealand dollars).

HGIF Global Emerging Markets Equity Alpha

Since Fund inception on 16 April 2010 to period ending on 30 September 2010, the Fund delivered a small negative return of -0.64% (net of fees, Class L1) USD Institutional share class, against a benchmark return of 0.15% (1 month USD Libor).The investment process for the Fund is fundamentally driven by a robust and highly disciplined approach to stock-picking, using combined profitability /valuation for both long and short equity selection. Over the period, the portfolio held an average of approximately 35 long and 35 short positions selected from a universe of 700 stocks. The Fund saw negative performance in 3 out of the 6 months, but ended the period strongly in September, which provided the best monthly performance of +2.15%. The current market environment with valuations in a neutral zone, it is difficult to conclude on a high net position, and going into the last quarter of the year, the Fund Managers therefore remain focused on individual stocks with low net exposure to drive returns.

Directors’ Report (continued)

HGIF Global Macro

The Fund returned -1.30% (net of fees for L class shares) for the 6 month period to 30 September 2010. Over this period, risky markets proved quite volatile, especially in late spring as the sovereign crisis unfolded in the Euro area. Later in the period, bond yields fell heavily as the global economy started to slow-down. The overall performance of the Fund was held back by a short bond position, which was justified by the very low level of yields. Other bets partly offset the losses on duration risk. Positions on emerging market currencies have been maintained throughout the period, providing support especially towards the end of the period. Spread positions on bonds, favouring US or Euro bonds versus Japanese bonds have also contributed to limit the losses on the sub-fund. HGIF New World Income

For the six month period ending 30 September 2010, the Fund returned 4.5% gross of fees. The strategy maintains its place as one performing emerging markets debt products available on a risk-adjusted basis. Absolute performance was strong for the half year to September as both hard currency and local currency debt performed well. The Fund’s strongest months were July and September, whilst May saw some losses. The Fund maintained a net invested position of around 70% - 80% in the period ensuring that the manager captured the majority of market gains, but still maintained protection against any losses in the markets and controlled volatility. A significant amount of performance has been driven by country selection, with gains from both local and currency exposure, as it continues to only put best idea trades into this strategy. Overall, the Fund remains constructive on emerging markets debt, amid expectations for a liquidity-induced global recovery, a positive backdrop for commodity prices, improving fundamentals, and strong technicals with ongoing flows into the asset class.

Notes to the Financial Statements

66

1. Basis of presentation

HSBC Global Investment Funds (the “Company”) is incorporated under the laws of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg as an investment company with variable capital (Société d’Investissement à Capital Variable or “SICAV”). The capital comprises various classes of shares each relating to a separate portfolio (a “sub-fund”) consisting of securities, cash and other sundry assets and liabilities. The accompanying financial statements present the assets and liabilities of the individual sub-funds and of the Company taken as a whole. The financial statements of each individual sub-fund are expressed in the currency designated in the Prospectus for that particular sub-fund and the financial statements of the Company are expressed in United States Dollars (USD). The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the format prescribed by the Luxembourg authorities for Luxembourg investment companies.

The Company is an officially registered investment fund under Part I of the law of 20 December 2002 (the “2002 Law”) and has been certified as a UCITS fund under the directive 85/611/CEE of the Council of Europe.

Certain sub-funds of the Company are authorised by the Hong Kong Securities and Futures Commission under Section 104 of the “Securities and Futures Ordinance”.

In the Prospectus and in the various reports, the short names of the sub-funds are used. The complete name of each sub-fund consists of “HSBC Global Investment Funds” plus the short name of the sub-fund.

From 1 April 2010 to 30 September 2010, the Company has proceeded to the opening of the following 4 sub-funds:

• European Equity Alpha on 13 April 2010. • Global Emerging Markets Equity Alpha on 16 April 2010. • Global Inflation Linked Bond on 30 June 2010. • Global High Income Bond on 28 July 2010.

The following accounting policies have been used consistently in dealing with items which are considered material in relation to the Company’s financial statements.

2. Accounting Policies

a) Accounting convention

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention modified by the revaluation of investments.

b) Assets and portfolio securities valuation

Portfolio securities and/or financial derivative instruments which are listed on an official stock exchange are valued at the last available price on the principal market on which such securities are traded. Securities traded on other organised markets are valued at the last available price or yield equivalents obtained from one or more dealers in such organised markets at the time of valuation. If such prices are not representative of their fair value, all such securities and all other permitted assets will be valued at their fair value at which it is expected they may be resold as determined in good faith by or under the direction of the Directors.

The assets of each share class within each sub-fund are valued using prices available at different times during the day of 30 September 2010. If the Company had calculated the net asset values solely with a view to publication, the market prices used to value the net assets would have been the closing prices on 30 September 2010. However, these net asset values would not have been significantly different from those shown in these financial statements.

The financial derivative instruments which are not listed on any official stock exchange or traded on any other organised market are valued in accordance with market practice. Shares or units in underlying open-ended investment sub-funds are valued at their last available net asset value reduced by any applicable charges.

The Company uses the amortized cost method of valuation in valuing its portfolio of financial instruments in the form of short term debt (such as commercial paper, certificate of deposit, treasury bills,…).

2. Accounting Policies (continued)

c) Income and Expenses

Interest is accrued on a day-to-day basis. Dividends are accounted for on an ex-dividend basis.

d) Foreign Exchange

The cost of investments, income and expenses in currencies other than the fund relevant reporting currency have been recorded at the rate of exchange ruling at the time of the transaction. The market value of investments and other assets and liabilities in currencies other than the relevant reporting currency have been converted at the rates of exchange ruling at 30 September 2010.

e) Realised Profit/(Loss) on Sale of Investments

Realised profit/(loss) on sale of investments is the difference between the historical average cost of the investment and the sale proceeds.

f) Segregated Liability

The Company has segregated liability between its sub-funds; meaning, the assets of a sub-fund are exclusively available to satisfy the rights of shareholders in relation to that sub-fund and the rights of creditors whose claims have arisen in connection with the creation, operation and liquidation of that sub-fund.

3. Share capital

The Company has issued either A, AM, E, I, J, L, M, P, R, S, W, X, Y, YP, Z and ZP Shares to investors in one or several sub-funds as detailed below.

Within each share class of a sub-fund, the Company is entitled to create different sub-classes distinguished by their distribution policy (Capital-Accumulation (C) and Distribution (D) Shares), their hedging activity (H) and/or by any other criterion to be stipulated by the Directors.

All share classes are available as both ‘Capital Accumulation’ and ‘Distribution’ shares.

3. Share capital (continued) Share Class Denominations and Successive Classes: The share classes issued in the different sub-funds are designated by their class name, followed by their distribution characteristics and, if applicable, their specific hedging policy and the currency into which the base currency is hedged. This means that for example shares issued in Class A which are distributing income and applying a hedging policy to Euro, as defined above, would be identified as ADHEUR whereas Class I Shares accumulating income would be identified as IC. Successive Classes J, L, M, R, YP and ZP in a given sub-fund are numbered 1, 2, 3… and will be referred to as J1, J2, J3, (…), L1, L2, L3 (…), M1, M2, M3 (…) etc. Successive Classes S Shares will be issued in different sub-funds, and numbered 1, 2, 3 etc. and will be referred to as S1, S2, S3, etc. for the S Class launched in the first sub-fund, S Class launched in the second sub-fund and S Class launched in the third sub-fund, respectively and as disclosed in the relevant sub-fund characteristics (see Section 3.2. of the Prospectus). Within each share class of a sub-fund, separate currency hedged classes may be issued (suffixed by “H” and the currency into which the Base Currency is hedged e.g. “HEUR” or “HGBP”). Any fees of the Administrator relating to the execution of the currency hedging policy will be borne by the relevant currency hedged class. These fees are in addition to the operating, administrative and servicing expenses detailed below. Any gains or losses shall also accrue to the relevant currency hedged class. 4. Charges and Expenses 1. Explanation of the Charging Structure Investment in the Company is generally offered via charging structures, as represented by the A, AM, E, I, J, L, M, P, R, S, W, X, Y, YP, Z and ZP Classes of Shares. The Management Company is entitled, in respect of each class of shares, to a management fee to cover all investment management, investment advisory and distribution services provided in relation to the relevant class (see paragraph (2) headed “Management Fee” below). In addition, the Company pays to the Management Company a fee to cover operating, administrative and servicing expenses. To safeguard shareholders from fluctuations in a sub-fund’s operating, administrative and servicing expenses, the Company has agreed with the Management Company that the fee charged to cover such operating, administrative and servicing expenses is fixed at an annual rate. The potential excess of such expenses above such annual rate will be borne directly by the Management Company (see paragraph (4) headed “Operating, Administrative and Servicing Expenses / operating currency hedging fees” below). 2. Management Fee The Company pays to the Management Company an annual management fee calculated as a percentage of the Net Asset Value of each sub-fund or share class (“Management Fee”). The Management Fee is accrued daily and payable monthly in arrears at the rates specified in the table on page 125.

2. Management Fee (continued) The maximum rate for Class E, I, J, L and M Shares is 3.5%. The maximum rate for Class A, AM, P, R, S, X, Y, YP, Z and ZP Shares is as stated in the Prospectus. No Management Fee is currently charged for Class W Shares. The Management Fee covers management and distribution services provided in relation to the relevant sub-fund of the Company by the Management Company, the Investment Advisers and the Share Distributors. The Management Company is responsible for discharging, out of such fee, the fees of the Investment Advisers and the Share Distributors and may pay part of such fee to recognised intermediaries or such other person as the Management Company may determine, at its discretion. The Management Company may instruct the Company to pay a portion of the Management Fee directly out of the assets of the Company to any of such service providers. In such case, the Management Fee due to Management Company is reduced accordingly. 3. Performance Fee Unless otherwise provided in the Prospectus, for sub-funds issuing Classes J Shares, L Shares, M Shares, R Shares, XP Shares, YP Shares and ZP Shares, the Management Company is also entitled to a Performance Fee, payable annually in arrears after the end of each twelve month period. Each Dealing Day, the Performance Fee accrual will be calculated as 20% of the difference between the change in the Net Asset Value per share of the relevant class of the sub-fund since the previous dealing day (net of all other fees and expenses and excluding the effect of subscriptions and redemptions) and the simple daily equivalent of the percentage defined below for the relevant sub-funds (hereafter the "Percentage") provided that on such Dealing Day the Net Asset Value per Share of the relevant class of the sub-fund is higher than the Low Tide Mark (as defined below). On a dealing day when the net asset value exceeds the Low Tide Mark but immediately follows a dealing day when the NAV per share was below the Low Tide Mark, no accrual is made. On the first issue of the relevant class of shares in a sub-fund, the Low Tide Mark will equal the initial offer price of the relevant class of shares of the sub-fund. The Low Tide Mark will not be set at a level below the initial offer price of the relevant class of shares of the sub-fund. The cumulative Performance Fee accruals from the beginning of the twelve months period will be included in the calculation of the Net Asset Value per Share. In the event of any change in the Net Asset Value per Share of the relevant Class of the sub-fund being less than the simple daily equivalent of the Percentage, the daily Performance Fee accrual will be negative and will reduce the cumulative Performance Fee accrual until the accrual reaches a minimum level of zero. If the cumulative Performance Fee accrual reaches zero, the Net Asset Value per Share on the previous day will be set as the ‘Low Tide Mark’. No further daily Performance Fee accruals will be made until the Net Asset Value per Share exceeds the Low Tide Mark.

4. Charges and Expenses (continued)

3. Performance Fee (continued) At the end of the twelve months period, the positive balance (if any) of the Performance Fee accrual will become payable to the Management Company and the Performance Fee accrual in the Net Asset Value per share of the relevant class of shares will be reset to zero and the Net Asset Value per Share on that day will be set as the Low Tide Mark. When there is a positive Performance Fee accrual during a period of significant new subscriptions into a sub-fund with the relevant class of shares, followed by a period of negative performance, all shareholders will participate (in proportion with their shareholding) in the reduction in the cumulative Performance Fee accrual, regardless of their actual contribution to the cumulative Performance Fee accrual. Also, if the Net Asset Value per Share is rising but is still below the Low Tide Mark, the Management Company will not benefit from any Performance Fee accruals on any relevant class of shares of the sub-fund, including shares that are newly issued and which only experience positive performance. The detailed Performance Fee information can be found in the Prospectus dated October 2010. If there is a positive balance of the Performance Fee, it will become payable to the Management Company and will be included in the “performance fees” balance from the statement of operations. If there was a positive balance of the Performance Fees accrued as at 31 March 2010 but no performance fees paid during the period ended 30 September 2010 or payable as at 30 September 2010, the 31 March 2010 accrual reversal is included in the “other income” balance from the statement of operations. 4. Operating, Administrative and Servicing Expenses / Operating Currency Hedging Fees The Company pays to the Management Company a fee to cover certain Operating, Administrative and Servicing Expenses. The Management Company is responsible for discharging out of this fee, the expenses described below, inter alia, payable to the Custodian, Administration, Registrar and Transfer Agent. This fee is set, for each sub-fund and/or class, at a fixed percentage of the Net Asset Value of the relevant sub-fund or class specified in the Company’s Prospectus (as specified in the table on page 123). Such fee is accrued daily and payable monthly in arrears. No Operating, Administrative and Servicing Expenses will be charged to Class W Shares. All the fees and charges allocated to such class of shares will be paid directly by a member or an affiliated entity of HSBC Group. The maximum rate for class A, AM, E, I, J, L, M, P, R, S, X, Y, YP, Z and ZP Shares is 1.0% (but not including the fees of the Administration Agent relating to the execution of the currency hedging for the currency hedged share classes). However, the Board of Directors reserves the right to amend the fixed level of the Operating, Administrative and Servicing Expenses applicable to each class of shares. In the event of an increase of such expenses, the concerned shareholders will be given at least three months prior notice of such increase. During this three months notice, such shareholders may request the redemption of their shares, free of charge. Operating, Administrative and Servicing Expenses cover the ongoing custody fees and safekeeping charges payable to the Custodian and its correspondent banks, fees for fund accounting and administration services (including domiciliary services) payable to the Administrative Agent and transfer agency fees for registrar and transfer agency services payable to the Registrar and Transfer Agent.

4. Charges and Expenses (continued)

4. Operating, Administrative and Servicing Expenses / Operating Currency Hedging Fees (continued) Operating, Administrative and Servicing Expenses also cover expenses relating to the creation of new sub-funds; the costs of the Subsidiaries (see below); the Luxembourg asset-based taxe d’abonnement, at the rate referred to under Section “Taxation” of the Company’s Prospectus attendance fees and reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Board of Directors legal, auditing fees and expenses ongoing registration and listing fees, including translation expenses the costs and expenses of preparing, printing, and distributing the Company’s Prospectus, simplified Prospectuses, financial reports, statements and other documents made available directly or through intermediaries to its shareholders. The Company pays to the Management Company a fee to cover the fees of the Administration Agent relating to the execution of the currency hedging policy for the hedged share classes launched on or after 1 December 2008. The Management Company may instruct the Company to pay a portion of the aforesaid fees directly out of the assets of the Company to any of the aforementioned service providers. In such case the fee due to the Management Company is reduced accordingly. 5. Transaction expenses and extraordinary expenses

The transaction expenses linked to security dealing are written off against the realised profit/loss from the sale of investments. Each sub-fund bears the costs and expenses of buying and selling portfolio securities and financial instruments, brokerage fees and commissions, interest or taxes payable, and other transaction related expenses. These transaction fees are accounted for on a cash basis and are paid when incurred or invoiced from the net assets of the sub-fund to which they are attributable. Transaction fees are allocated across each sub-fund’s share classes. The Company bears any extraordinary expenses including, without limitation, litigation expenses and the full amount of any tax, levy, duty or similar charge and any unforeseen charges imposed on the Company or its assets. 6. Indian Equity and Global Emerging Markets Equity

The Company’s wholly owned subsidiaries in Mauritius, HSBC Global Investment Funds Mauritius Limited ("HSBC Mauritius") and HSBC GIF Mauritius No. 2 Limited ("HSBC Mauritius No. 2"), (each a "Subsidiary" or collectively, the "Subsidiaries") both located at Rogers House, 5 President John Kennedy Street, Port Louis, Mauritius. HSBC Mauritius manages the Indian Equity sub-fund's investments in India, whilst HSBC Mauritius No. 2 manages the Global Emerging Markets Equity sub-fund's investments in India. HSBC Mauritius was incorporated in Mauritius on 3 October 1995. The accounts of the Indian Equity sub-fund and the HSBC Mauritius have been consolidated. HSBC Mauritius No. 2 was incorporated in Mauritius on 21 November 2007. The accounts of the Global Emerging Markets Equity sub-fund and HSBC Mauritius No. 2 have been consolidated.

6. Indian Equity and Global Emerging Markets Equity (continued) The Subsidiaries have appointed Multiconsult Limited, Rogers House, 5, President John Kennedy Street, Port Louis, Mauritius, to provide administrative services to the Subsidiaries in Mauritius, including maintenance of its accounts, books and records. Both Subsidiaries have appointed KPMG Mauritius, KPMG Centre, 30 St George Street, Port Louis, Mauritius, as auditors of the Subsidiaries in Mauritius to perform the auditor’s duties required by Mauritius law. 7. Taxation of the Company

The following summary is based on the Company’s understanding of the law and practice currently in force in the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg and in other jurisdictions and is subject to changes therein. Belgium The Belgian government has enacted a law which charges an annual net asset value tax on foreign investment funds registered with the Belgian Banking and Finance Commission. An annual tax of 0.08% is charged on the net outstanding amounts of sub-funds placed in Belgium through Belgian financial intermediaries, or where that figure is not substantially documented, the tax authorities may calculate the tax on the total asset of those sub-funds. To date as the amounts are small, the Management Company has paid this tax cost on behalf of the Company out of the Operating, Administrative and Servicing Expenses it receives. However, should the cost become substantial or long term the Management Company may require the sub-funds concerned to bear that tax charge for future periods. India On the basis that they are a Mauritian tax resident and hold a valid Tax Residency Certificate, the Subsidiaries will benefit from the tax advantages available to them under the India-Mauritius double taxation treaty, which became effective on 1 July 1983. The Subsidiaries will file, through its Custodian, a declaration of Mauritian residency with the registrar of each Indian company in which it invests. Capital gains resulting from the purchase and sale by the Subsidiaries of stocks on the Indian stock exchanges will be exempt from tax on the basis that the Subsidiaries are able to benefit from the provisions of the India-Mauritius double taxation treaty. The above-stated tax treatment under the India-Mauritius double taxation treaty will be available provided that the Subsidiaries neither have a permanent establishment nor its effective management and control in India. No guarantee or warranty can be given or should be assumed that the tax benefits of the said treaty will continue to be available to the Indian Equity and in Global Emerging Markets Equity sub-funds in future periods due to, among others, changes in the regulatory environment in Mauritius, India or the European Union. The Central Board of Direct Taxes, an apex Income-tax authority of India, has confirmed the availability of the treaty benefits to companies holding a certificate of Mauritian tax residence. The Supreme Court of India in the case of Union of India and Anr. v. Azadi Bachao Andolan and Anr., confirmed on 7 October 2003 the validity of this position. Dividends paid by the Indian companies are exempt from tax in the hands of the recipients if the said company pays a dividend distribution tax at the prescribed tax rate on dividends declared, distributed or paid by them on or after 1 April 2003. The new Indian Direct Tax Code is expected to come into force from 1 April 2012. This will broadly tax all capital gains of foreign investors at 30% unless relief is available under an appropriate double tax treaty with India. However, the new Indian Direct Tax Code gives considerable discretion to the tax authorities, which may be used to seek to deny treaty benefits to foreign investors. Such actions could result in a significant financial cost for investors.

7. Taxation of the Company (continued)

Luxembourg The Company is not liable to any Luxembourg tax on profits or income. The Company is, however, liable in Luxembourg to a tax of 0.05% per annum of its net asset value, such tax being payable quarterly on the basis of the value of the net assets of the Company at the end of the relevant calendar quarter. The tax rate is reduced to 0.01% per annum for the Euro Reserve sub-fund and Classes J, L, S1, W, X, Z and ZP Shares in the relevant sub-funds. No stamp duty or other tax is payable in Luxembourg on the issue of shares. The classes/sub-funds may be exempted from this 0.01% tax if they comply with the requirements of the Luxembourg law of 19 December 2003 which are the following: (i) the shares of the class/sub-fund must be reserved to institutional investors in the meaning of article 129 of the 2002 Law; (ii) the exclusive object of the class/sub-fund’s portfolio must be the investment in money market instruments and/or deposits with credit institutions; (iii) the remaining average maturity of the class/sub-fund’s portfolio must be less than 90 days and (iv) the class/sub-fund must benefit from the highest possible rating of a recognized rating agency. No Luxembourg tax is payable on the realised or unrealised capital appreciation of the assets of the Company. Mauritius The Subsidiaries are registered with the Financial Services Commission as offshore companies. As a result they are subject to a reduced rate of Mauritian income tax on their income. In addition, no Mauritian capital gains tax will be payable in respect of the Subsidiaries investments in India and any dividends and redemption proceeds paid by the Subsidiaries to the Indian Equity or Global Emerging Markets Equity sub-funds will be exempt from Mauritian withholding tax. A certificate of Mauritian tax residence has been granted to the Subsidiaries by the Mauritius Revenue Authority. On the basis that they are Mauritian tax residents, the Subsidiaries will qualify for certain reliefs from Indian tax as set out in the Indian tax paragraph above. Thailand Where possible, Thai stocks of the Thai Equity sub-fund are held through custody arrangements in London which enables the Company to benefit from the United Kingdom-Thailand double tax treaty and therefore gains realised by the sub-fund are currently not liable to tax in Thailand. Although the Company will seek to maintain this favourable position, no guarantee or warranty can be given or should be assumed that the tax benefits of the treaty will continue to be available to the sub-fund in future periods. Should the sub-fund become subject to Thai tax on its gains this will have an adverse effect on investment returns and a possible impact on the net asset value. United Kingdom It is the intention of the Board of Directors to conduct the affairs of the Company so that it does not become resident in the United Kingdom. On the basis that the Company is not resident in the United Kingdom for tax purposes it should not be subject to United Kingdom corporation tax on its income and capital gains. The Company has received certification as a distributing fund under Schedule 27 of the Income and Corporation Taxes Act 1988.

The Management Company is entitled to collect a fee of up to 10% of the stock lending gross fee payable to the Company as a result of any stock lending programme, to cover the administration work the Management Company has to undertake in the monitoring and oversight of the stock lending activity. 16.

17. Subsequent events

The following Investment Advisers will change their names as at 1 January 2011: Former Investment Advisers Names New Investment Advisers Names Halbis Capital Management (Hong Kong) Limited HSBC Global Asset Management (Hong Kong) Limited Halbis Capital Management (USA) Inc. HSBC Global Asset Management (USA) Inc. Halbis Capital Management (UK) Limited HSBC Global Asset Management (UK) Limited The following sub-funds will change their names as at 1 January 2011: • Euro Core Bond will change its name to Euro Bond. • Euro Core Credit Bond will change its name to Euro Credit Bond. • Global Core Credit Bond will change its name to Global Credit Bond. • Global Core Plus Bond will change its name to Global Bond. • US Dollar Core Plus Bond will change its name to US Dollar Bond. • New World Income will change its name to GEM Debt Total Return. • European Equity Alpha will change its name to European Equity Absolute Return. • Global Emerging Markets Equity Alpha will change its name to GEM Equity Absolute Return. Further, in order to protect investors from some of the performance dilution they may suffer as a result of significant flows into and out of the sub-funds, an amendment has been made to the 'pricing adjustment' permitted to mitigate transaction costs associated with investing in Brazil. Since October 2010, where net capital inflows in the Brazil Bond, Brazil Equity, Latin American Equity and Latin American Local Debt sub-funds exceed a predefined threshold, the net asset value per share may be adjusted by a maximum of 7% to additionally mitigate the effects of a financial transactions tax (IOF) payable in Brazil.

Dealing Days of the Fund

293

Dealing for Shares in the Company will take place on any Business Day (other than days during a period of suspension of dealing in Shares) and which is also for each sub-fund, a day where stock exchanges and regulated markets in countries where the sub-fund is materially invested are open for normal trading. Until 1 February 2010, for sub-funds materially invested in North or South American markets, a Dealing Day means any Business Day (other than days during a period of suspension of dealing in Shares) except a Business Day following the day where stock exchanges and regulated markets in such countries were closed for normal trading. The Business Days which are not Dealing Days will be listed in the annual report and semi-annual reports and available at the registered office of the Company. Any amendments to such lists are also available at the registered office of the Company. Shareholders who deal through the Company's local distributor or representative should note that there will be no dealing for the Shares of the Company in the jurisdiction in which such distributor or representative operates on a day which is not a business day in such jurisdiction. Shareholders in such jurisdictions can however deal via the Transfer Agent in Luxembourg. The Company will determine the dealing/non-dealing calendar according to the latest market information obtained by the Company from time to time. Shareholders can obtain the latest dealing/non-dealing calendar of the Company from the registered office of the Company or from the Company's local distributor or representative.

2011) therefore equity sub-funds listing the US as a material market will not have a holiday on these

dates. Bond markets will be closed to trading on these dates and bond sub-funds listing the US as a

material market will have holiday days delayed by one business day in line with a policy adopted by the

Board of Directors.

*** In line with the change of definition for Business Day in the prospectus dated October 2010, holiday days

for North American and Latin American markets will be observed on the market holiday dates.
