The Rorento bond fund will start using a new benchmark as of 1 July
2006. The fund's current benchmark, the Lehman Multiverse Index, is
50% hedged into euros. This will be changed into a 100% hedge into
euros. As a result, the fund's risk profile will be considerably
reduced for investors in the euro zone. "If you want your fund to be
a pure fixed-income fund which is independent of the development of
the dollar or yen, full hedging is the preferred option", says Edith
Siermann, Chief Investment Officer Fixed Income.

The investment policy will not be changed. Rorento will continue to
actively take advantage of currency movements. Because of the broad
range of strategies, Rorento can benefit from almost every
opportunity. Edith Siermann: "Rorento's all-strategy concept sets it
apart from other bond funds which usually depend on one performance
driver. Rorento has a more diversified strategy, leading to an
attractive and stable risk/return profile.

Rorento, which manages some EUR 3 billion was founded in 1974 and is
one of the Netherland's oldest and largest bond funds.
