Passive currency hedging
• Protects returns when exchange rates move “the
wrong way”
• Removes the chance to profit when exchange
rates move “the right way”
Active currency hedging seeks to protect the
portfolio against adverse currency movements

Very long term economic value considerations include:
• Inflation (How much does a hamburger cost?)
• Terms of Trade (Prices of exports vs prices of imports)
• Productivity
Other considerations include
• Interest Rate
• Every currency is different
• US dollar might be “expensive” while Japanese yen is “cheap” compared to Australian dollar
• Avoiding large transaction costs

This general information has been prepared without taking into account your individual objectives,
financial situation or needs and you should consider whether it is appropriate for you. You should seek
professional advice and consider the product disclosure document, available at www.ssga.com, before
deciding whether to acquire or continue to hold units in the Funds.
This document may contain certain statements deemed to be forward-looking statements. All statements,
other than historical facts, contained within this document that address activities, events or developments
that SSGA expects, believes or anticipates will or may occur in the future are forward-looking statements.
These statements are based on certain assumptions and analyses made by SSGA in light of its
experience and perception of historical trends, current conditions, expected future developments and
other factors it believes are appropriate in the circumstances, many of which are detailed herein. Such
statements are subject to a number of assumptions, risks, uncertainties, many of which are beyond
SSGA's control. Please note that any such statements are not guarantees of any future performance and
that actual results or developments may differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking
statements.
Investing involves risk including the risk of loss of principal. Risk associated with equity investing includes
stock values which may fluctuate in response to the activities of individual companies and general market
and economic conditions. Investing in foreign domiciled securities may involve risk of capital loss from
unfavorable fluctuation in currency values, withholding taxes, from differences in generally accepted
accounting principles or from economic or political instability in other nations.
Currency Hedging involves taking offsetting positions intended to substantially offset currency losses on
the hedged instrument. If the hedging position behaves differently than expected, the volatility of the
strategy as a whole may increase and even exceed the volatility of the asset being hedged. There can be
no assurance that the Fund's hedging strategies will be effective.
Currency Risk is a form of risk that arises from the change in price of one currency against another.
Whenever investors or companies have assets or business operations across national borders, they face
currency risk if their positions are not hedged
Standard deviation is a historical measure of the degree to which a fund's returns varied over a certain
period of time. It is normally shown over a time period of 36 months, but the illustrations noted in this
material reflect a shorter time frame. This may not depict a true historical measure, and shouldn't be
relied upon as an accurate assessment of volatility. The higher the standard deviation, the greater the
likelihood (and risk) that a fund's performance will fluctuate and have greater potential for volatility; a
lower standard deviation indicates past returns have been less volatile.
