Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., 2013 Annual Report
Introduction by the Chairman of the Board
Ing. Martin Řezáč, CFA
Chairman of the Board of Directors
of the risk spectrum, the performance achieved by the Top Stocks
equity fund is “sparkling”, having grown by almost 34% year on
year! Reflection of the very good absolute but also relative performance can then be found precisely in the growing volume of assets
in our unit trusts (more than CZK 55 billion at the end of 2013),
which is accompanied by interest in regular investing. The share
of regular investors in overall sales of retail funds last year was
approximately 25%.
With a view to the low-interest environment, it is now very complicated to offer attractive appreciation to very conservative investors whose funds have in the past been concentrated in money
market funds. It is precisely conservative mixed funds which we
recommend to these investors, where the return on the small share
component (typically around 10%) more than compensates for the
potentially higher volatility of the investment. Proof of the success
of this thinking can be found not only in last year’s performance,
but in particular in the growth in volume of the assets of the Konzervativní mix unit trust by approximately CZK 4 billion.
Dear friends,
The year 2013 went down in history as a successful year for investors for many reasons: holders of units in our company’s mixed
and in particular equity funds registered very attractive appreciation of their assets, the volume of assets managed grew pleasingly
thanks to positive net sales and auspicious market development
and our company coped extremely successfully with personnel
changes and pressure on decreasing costs. We thus beat last year’s
financial and commercial result and in addition to this, our contribution to the overall result of the Ceska sporitelna group exceeded
the expectations or rather the original plans. We also adapted ahead
of schedule to the new legal environment regulating our field of
business.
The long-term high quality of work of the investment team was
again confirmed by excess performance (so-called alpha) in the
vast majority of our unit trusts and mandates which we manage.
In relation to this, I must not forget the two flagships of our product range: the performance of the conservative mixed unit trust
Konzervativní mix achieved 2.86% last year; on the opposite end
We are aware of the fact that past successes represent a clear-cut
commitment for the future. Although it is difficult to realistically
expect a repetition of similarly exceptional performance of the developed share markets seen last year, we are convinced that investors in our mixed funds (among others) will be delighted with the
appreciation achieved in 2014. Besides, our leading position on the
domestic market with open-ended mutual funds does not allow us
to do anything else.
In conclusion, I would like to thank all of my colleagues from the
Ceska sporitelna financial group for their cooperation to date and
assure our unit holders that the whole team at Investicni spolecnosti Ceske sporitelny will again be doing their utmost to ensure
the success of your investments. I wish you all the best of luck in
terms of your investments.

Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., 2013 Annual Report
Report of the Board of Directors
on the Business Activities of ISČS and the Balance of Its Assets
In 2013 the economic indicators of Investiční společnost České
spořitelny, a. s. (“ISČS”, the “Company”) reached very satisfactory values that exceeded both the previous year results and also
careful expectations created in the first half of the year by sudden events with a negative impact on company’s p/l. Nevertheless, the net profit and also total contribution to the financial group
exceeded budgeted figures thanks to positive net sales and higher
fee income, outstanding performance of portfolios resulting in
above-expected performance fees and also thanks to strict costmanagement throughout the whole period.
Investiční společnost České spořitelny reported a net profit of CZK
46.4 mil in 2013. The net profit will be traditionally distributed
based on a decision of the sole shareholder exercising the powers
of the general meeting in accordance with Section 190 article 2 of
Act. No. 90/2012 Coll. on business corporations.
The company’s financial and liquidity situation was good throughout the whole period under assessment. The company did not acquire any assets in the form of financial leasing in 2013 and does
not have overdue trade receivables.
The company’s registered capital is divided between 700 certificated shares to name that are not publicly tradable and have a nominal
value of CZK 100 th., i.e. a total of CZK 70,000 th. Since December 16th, 2009, the sole shareholder of ISČS has been Erste Asset
Management GmbH., (“EAM”), owning 100% of registered capital and associated voting rights. The general reserves have reached
the statutorily-required 20% of registered capital.
Neither ISČS nor EAM owns the assets of the open-ended mutual
funds (OEMF); they belong to unit holders in the unit trusts. The
company’s accounts are strictly separated from the accounts of the
open-ended mutual funds.
ISČS is active solely on the market of the Czech Republic and its
revenues are realised in the Czech Republic.
Trading and Assets under Management
In 2013, the gross sales of ISCS funds reached CZK 17.233 bn,
while gross redemptions reached CZK 15.389 bn. Thus the total
net sales reached CZK 1.844 bn, when outflows from money market funds were more than compensated inflows into mixed and
to some extent also into equity funds. The market share of ISCS
remained more or less unchanged (approx. 26%), as the overall
market grew by almost the same figure.
The assets under management within retail oriented ISČS funds
grew as a result of net positive sales and thanks to very good absolute performance. ISČS managed fund assets with a total market
value of CZK 55 bn at the end of 2013.
ISČS’ Market Position and Business Policy
The position of ISCS in the Czech market remained stable. Even
despite growing gross sales, the company continues to suffer from
redemptions from money market funds, mainly from Sporoinvest
as a result of low-yield environment. The share of Sporoinvest on
the retail products managed by ISCS declined from 32% at the beginning of the year down to 24% at the end of 2013. Similar to the
previous year, we did our best to improve the structure of clients
asset-allocation mix especially in a long-term horizon, i.e. more
diversified investment solutions with higher share of risky assets.
Significant part of Sporoinvest outflows have been switched to
other funds, primarily mixed funds (Konzervativni Mix above all).
This positive shift in product mix naturally also resulted in better
average margin.
A significant change of the legal and regulatory environment
materialized in 2013 (the new Investment companies and investment funds act effective since August 2013), additional changes
are valid from 1st January 2014. The changes have been recorded
both within commercial and civil code. Henceforth, ISČS internal
rulebooks and workflows base responds to these changes in ongoing fashion. Furthermore, the company had to amend contracts for
Board members in line with net legal set-up and we expect changes
in code of rules of the company in 2014, too. ISČS’ capital adequacy remains to be at a sufficient level.
Česká spořitelna is ISČS’ main distribution partner. The provision of collective investment services is linked to high quality
clients’ money asset management and to a range of funds that is
constantly being perfected. In addition, clients are provided with
quality advisory services through Česká spořitelna branches. Such
information can also be obtained from the Client Centre of Česká
spořitelna, a. s. phone no. 800 207 207 and on ISČS and ČS websites.
Changes in Company Bodies
The board of directors has been changed during 2013. Mgr. Martin Burda decided to leave positions of CEO and Chairman of
the Board in late March. His successor became Ing. Martin Řezáč,
CFA in both positions since April. Ing. Štěpán Mikolášek, CFA,
was named into Board by a decision of the sole shareholder and,
subsequently, he was also elected as the Deputy chairman. Mr. Arjen Janmaat continues to act as a member of the Board.
Term of RNDr. Petr Bobysud in the supervisory board expired in
September. He was replaced by Mr. Christian Schön, who also
became the Deputy Chairman. Remaining members of the Supervisory Board continued to act in their positions: Mag. Heinz
Bednar (chairman), Mag. Günther Mandl, Ing. Jiří Škorvaga, CSc.,
Ing. Daniel Heler and Ing. Pavel Kráčmar (members).

Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., SPOROINVEST – otevřený podílový fond, 2013 Annual Report
SPOROINVEST
Characteristics
The short term bond fund. The biggest CZK denominated fund in
the Czech Republic. Recommended investment horizon is one year
and longer. The risk weight of the fund is 2 on a scale 1-7 of the
Synthetic risk and reward indicator.
Investment strategy
The fund’s portfolio contains primarily fixed or variable coupon
bonds mostly with the intention of holding them until their maturity. Investments are made also in the treasury bills, bank deposits
and eventually in derivative embedded bonds. The average duration of the mutual fund’s portfolio is maximum 18 months. Preferred are debenture securities from issuers with credit rating of at
least the investment grade.
Commentary of the fund manager
Traditional stability prevailed on the CZK money market in the
first three quarters of the year. There was greater volatility only
on the more liquid market - FRA (Forward Rate Agreement). The
high level of free liquidity on the market pushed the yields of conservative money market instruments and short government bonds
to new lows. A change on the market only occurred in November,
when the CNB Banking Council decided to employ interventions
to significantly weaken the Czech crown. By this decision, the
central bank flooded the market, which had already been overflowing with free liquidity, and additional approximately CZK
200 billion. This massive inflow of free liquidity was naturally
immediately reflected in inter-bank deposit market rates, which
dropped sharply.
Most of the first half of the year on the corporate bond market was
marked by a tightening of credit premiums which was supported
primarily by high investor demand for higher yields in an environment of low interest rates and excellent corporate sector fundamentals. Growth in credit markets was also supported by favourable
macroeconomic data from the US and German economies. A brief
correction on the market occurred in May and June, when public unrest in Turkey and an announcement of the US central bank
(Fed) of a gradual reduction of the government bond redemption
programme caused a correction on the financial markets. Whereas
swap rates and government bond yields grew relatively significantly, the expansion of credit premiums on investment-level corporate bonds was not striking. Regionally, bonds of countries and
companies from the Central and East-European region lost more
during the correction. Another turn came at the end of June, and
credit premiums started to tighten slowly. All previous losses were
erased in the course of two months and credit premiums gradually
stabilised. The market staggered lightly in November, when credit
premiums expanded slightly. But premiums started to tighten again
at the end of the year.
The average modified duration of the Sporoinvest portfolio was
low throughout 2013. In the first half of the year, investment-level
corporate bonds were increased in the fund, to the detriment of
deposits and government bonds. This extended the average time to
maturity of the portfolio. The level of diversification of the fund’s
portfolio was also up. In the second half of the year, the position in
bank and financial institution bonds was enhanced, and the position in the bonds of non-financial companies was reduced.
Full names of open-end mutual funds are stated in statutes or prospectuses of the funds. Conformable with rules valid for the collective investment the manager of funds refers to the fact,
that the present performance does not guarantee the performance in future. Investment in unit certificates implies a risk of a volatility of the current value of investment and yields of it and
that the return on initially invested amount cannot be guaranteed.

Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., SPOROBOND – otevřený podílový fond, 2013 Annual Report
SPOROBOND
Characteristics
The biggest open-ended mutual bond fund in the Czech Republic,
designed for mid-term up to long-term investment with a recommended investment horizon of three years and longer. Its yields
proceed from good-quality, primarily domestic bonds. The risk
weight of the fund is 3 on a scale 1-7 of the Synthetic risk and
reward indicator.
Investment strategy
The mutual fund invests primarily into government fixed-coupon
bonds denominated in CZK, eventually also into government
bonds from other countries with a mature bond market. The currency risk is in most cases hedged. Other investments go into corporate bonds, treasury bills, bank deposits, acquired are also bonds
with embedded derivative or bonds connected with a right to their
exchange for shares or priority right for subscription of shares.
Proportional share of stock however must not exceed 10% of the
fund’s asset value. The aim of the investment policy is to provide
the unit holders a growth of their unit certificates under the condition that the total risk profile of the mutual fund minimizes the
possibility of a loss in the two years horizon.
Commentary of the fund manager
In the first half, the Czech bond market copied the developments
of German government bonds. Bond yields were down until mid
May and then they grew relatively significantly until the end of
June (prices went down). At the beginning of the year, investors
were pessimistic as to the possible return of the European economy to growth, which was confirmed by the incoming weak data
from European economies. This pressed government bond yields
to new all-time lows. On the other hand, the US economy reported positive data, and in the end, the German economy joined in
May, where data indicated possible stabilisation. Also the Spanish and Portuguese economies, for example, showed first signs of
improvement. On the basis of that, a turn occurred on the markets
in mid May and government bond yields started to grow again.
Czech bonds copied this development. The drop in their prices was
magnified by unrest in Turkey and the related sale of government
bonds of developing economies. The US central bank (Fed) fuelled
the increase in yield far more strongly, as in mid June, it clarified
its steps in terms of a gradual reduction of monetary stimuli in the
economy. From mid May to the beginning of July, the yield of
ten-year Czech government bonds flew up by approximately 1%.
But a part of the previous correction was erased relatively quickly,
the market consolidated and was relatively stable through to the
end of September. The gradual arrival of positive macro-economic
data from European economies in the last quarter pushed yields to
lower levels, primarily at the shorter end and in the middle of the
yield curve. The longer end of the yield curve was rather stable.
The steepness of the yield curve thus started to increase. The drop
in shorter yield was magnified in November by a reduction of the
repo rate in the European Monetary Union to 0.25%, and the decision of the CNB Banking Council to resort to intervention significantly weakened the Czech crown.
Most of the first half of the year on the corporate bond market
was marked by a tightening of credit premiums which was supported primarily by high investor demand for higher yields in an
environment of low interest rates and excellent corporate sector
fundamentals. A short-term correction occurred on the market in
May and June, when public unrest in Turkey and an announcement of the US Fed contributed to a slight expansion of credit premiums on investment-level corporate bonds. Another turn came
at the end of June, and credit premiums started to tighten slowly.
All previous losses were erased in the course of two months and
credit premiums gradually stabilised. The market staggered lightly
in November, when credit premiums expanded slightly. Nevertheless, premiums started to tighten again at the end of the year.
Throughout the year, the fund actively managed the duration position on the CZK and EUR yield curve, thereby significantly eliminating the pronounced growth of no-risk rates at the mid point of
the year. Also investments in credit markets reflected positively
in the performance of the fund. Partial changes took place in the
part of the portfolio comprised of investments in credit markets.
The share of direct investments was expanded to the detriment of
fund investments, with an enhancement primarily in the position in
subordinated bank and financial institution bonds.
Full names of open-end mutual funds are stated in statutes or prospectuses of the funds. Conformable with rules valid for the collective investment the manager of funds refers to the fact,
that the present performance does not guarantee the performance in future. Investment in unit certificates implies a risk of a volatility of the current value of investment and yields of it and

Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., TRENDBOND – otevřený dluhopisový podílový fond, 2013 Annual Report
TRENDBOND
Characteristics
The open-ended mutual bond fund, designed rather for long-term
investment with a recommended investment horizon of at least
three years. The risk weight of the fund is 4 on a scale 1-7 of the
Synthetic risk and reward indicator.
Investment strategy
The fund invests mainly in government bonds of the Central and
East European countries, which were denominated in local and
strong currencies. It could be invested also in treasury bills, bank
deposits, eventually in derivative embedded bonds. Up to 10% of
the Fund‘s value can be invested in securities of the collective investment funds. The fund purchases preferably debenture securities from issuers with the long-term credit rating from the Standard
& Poor’s or from Moody’s of at least on the investment grade. The
mutual fund is managed in such a way that it should profit from
eventual decline of interest yields and, at the same time, it would
maximize its yields from the exchange rates movements.
German market and to the only slightly improving figures from its
economy. The FED (the US central bank) had a far greater impact
on yield growth when it announced a gradual discontinuation of
bond redemption.
Nervousness as to the gradual discontinuation of stimuli for the
economy was most apparent on the Turkish market; together with
problems in Syria, political problems, and high inflation, it increasingly discouraged confidence of foreign investors. Due to that, the
Turkish lira was one of the most seriously weakening currencies
on developing markets in 2013 (25.5% against the USD). Bonds
weakened by 4.2%.
Other markets in the region were also influenced by this volatility
in bond markets, but fortunately not as significantly as in Turkey.
Thanks to that, the Polish market strengthened by 1.4%, but the
zloty weakened by 1.8% against the euro. Hungarian bonds added
an impressive 9.8%, but the forint weakened by 5.8% with respect
to the euro.
Commentary of the fund manager
Bond markets throughout the region carried on the optimistic wave
of last year approximately until May. Bond yields reached their
new all-time lows. Central banks in Poland, Hungary, and Turkey
continued to reduce their base rates until the mid point of the year,
primarily due to weaker data from their domestic economies and
low inflation. Only the Hungarian central bank carried on in its
relaxed monetary policy through to the end of the year.
After a year of threats, the CNB resorted to FX interventions in
November, thereby sharply weakening the crown by 5% of its value, to around CZK 27 per euro. After that, bond yields started to
drop, primarily at the short end. At the end of the year, bond yields
were pulled up by good data from the US and the FED’s stimuli
reduction. Overall, Czech bonds added 0.12%, primarily thanks to
the drop of yields at the short end.
The situation turned in mid May and bond yields started to grow
(price drop) on all markets. In the region, this was launched by protests in Turkey against the present Erdogan government. Foreign
investors then started to close their profits, thereby weakening the
Turkish lira and sending bond yields upwards. This nervousness
spilled over to other markets in the region - Hungary and Poland.
The Czech bond market also responded to developments on the
In the end, the fund’s performance ended up in slightly negative
figures. The fund’s performance sharply increased in November
thanks to CNB’s intervention. Thanks to the under-weighted position position on the Turkish market and the overweighted position
on the Polish market, the fund’s performance got above its comparative index (benchmark) at the end of the year.

ČS korporátní dluhopisový
Characteristics
The open-ended mutual bond fund, designed for mid-term investment with a recommended investment horizon of at least three
years. The risk weight of the fund is 4 on a scale 1-7 of the Synthetic risk and reward indicator.
Investment strategy
The fund invests mainly in bonds of the corporate, municipal, bank
and government issuers from emerging markets of Europe, Near
and Middle East and African countries. Investments are directed
into bonds of above mentioned issuers that are traded on public
market of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) countries.
The currency risk is hedged by means of standard hedging operations. The fund’s portfolio consists mainly of bonds with fixed
and variable coupon, denominated in EUR and USD. Investments
go also into treasury bills, bank deposits, in some case even into
bonds with embedded derivative.
The fund purchases preferably debenture securities from issuers
with the long-term credit rating from the Standard & Poor’s at least
on the grade B- or from Moody’s at least on the grade B3. The
duration of the mutual fund’s portfolio shall not exceed 10 years.
Commentary of the fund manager
Most of the first half of the year on the corporate bond market of
the East-European region was marked by a light tightening of credit premiums which was supported primarily by strong investor demand for higher yields in an environment of low interest rates and
excellent corporate sector fundamentals. A brief correction on the
market occurred in May and June, when public unrest in Turkey
and an announcement of the US central bank (Fed) of a gradual
reduction of the government bond redemption programme caused
a correction on the financial markets. This caused a significant
growth in swap rates as well as an expansion of the credit premiums of the bonds of Turkish and Russian companies. But the situation stabilised quickly, with a turn at the end of June, when credit
premiums started to tighten slowly and gradually erased about
a half of the previous correction. Then credit premiums stabilised
for some time and another significant tightening only occurred
in December. The fourth quarter of last year was relatively rich
in important events in the East-European corporate bond market.
Another postponement of problems with the US budget and debt
ceiling had an impact on the market. The announcement of the
US Fed concerning a gradual cutback of the bond redemption programme starting in January 2014 was no less important and served
as a positive impulse. On the other hand, Ukraine got dangerously
close to bankruptcy. The country had been facing public finance
deficit problem for some time and the option of financing from
financial market had closed for it entirely. At the end of the year,
these problems were accompanied by a sharp drop in currency
reserves to the very bottom. In mid December, the market situation stabilised after an announcement that aid from Russia would
be accepted in the form of a loan and a discount from the price
of imported natural gas. This averted the immediate threat of the
country’s potential bankruptcy, which was immediately positively
reflected in the markets.
Exposure to Russian companies prevailed in the fund for the entire
year. Next in line were Turkish and Kazakh corporate bonds. But the
share of Kazakh corporate bonds in the portfolio lessened due to the
worsening development of the country’s banking sector. Ukrainian
corporate bonds were not represented in the fund at all until May,
and subsequently, their share was very low until the end of the year.
The average modified duration of the portfolio was low for most of
the year thanks to hedging instruments.

Characteristics
The open-ended mutual bond fund, designed for more experienced
investors who can lay aside their invested capital for at least three
years. The risk weight of the fund is 5 on a scale 1-7 of the Synthetic risk and reward indicator.
Investment strategy
Aim of the strategy is to provide the unit holders with a longterm
positive absolute performance of their crown investment into unit
certificates, mainly by investments in bonds of corporate and bank
issuers who have the long-term credit rating from the Standard &
Poor’s or from Moody’s at least on the speculative grade. The issuers are mostly from Western and Eastern Europe.
The fund’s portfolio consists mainly of fixed and variable rate
bonds issued in EUR or USD. The currency risk is hedged by
means of standard hedging operations. Moreover, derivative embedded bonds, treasury bills and bank deposits may be purchased
in the fund’s portfolio.
Commentary of the fund manager
Most of the first half of the year on the corporate bond market was
marked by a tightening of credit premiums which was supported
primarily by strong investor demand for higher yields in an environment of low interest rates and excellent corporate sector fundamentals. Growth in credit markets was also supported by favourable macroeconomic data from the US and German economies.
A small correction on the market occurred in May and June, when
public unrest in Turkey and an announcement of the US central
bank (Fed) of a gradual reduction of the government bond redemption programme caused a correction on the financial markets. This
caused a significant growth in swap rates as well as an expansion of
the credit premiums of corporate bonds. The market of high-interest corporate bonds (from developed economies), however, noted
a far lesser expansion of credit spreads than the market of corporate bonds from emerging economies. The movement of the norisk yield curve (swap rates) had a far more adverse impact. The
situation stabilised again at the end of June and credit premiums
slowly started to tighten again. The second half of the year on the
market of high interest corporate bonds was marked by a tightening
of credit premiums. In this period, credit premiums of high interest
European corporate bonds tightened by approximately 130 basic
points (1.3%), with the overall yield being 6.9%. The high appreciation was supported by improving macroeconomic data, strong
fundamentals of individual companies, a historically very low level
of corporate bankruptcies (defaults) and the resolution (postponement) of problems with the budget and debt ceiling in the US.
In the first half of the year, several changes occurred in the portfolio
which aimed at bringing the fund’s composition closer to its original focus on the European region. The positions in Greek, Portuguese, Spanish, and Italian corporate bonds were also strengthened
to allow the fund to profit from stabilisation in that region. Also
the level of diversification of the entire portfolio was increased.
Throughout the year, the fund actively managed the duration position on the EUR and USD yield curve, thereby eliminating to some
extent the pronounced growth of no-risk rates at the mid point of
the year.

BONDINVEST
Characteristics
An open-ended mutual bond fund was designed for mid-term investment of 2–3 years. The risk weight of the fund is 3 on a scale
1-7 of the Synthetic risk and reward indicator.
Unit certificates of this open-ended mutual fund are in the form
of a bearer security in documentary form. They were issued at the
nominal value of CZK 5,000 and CZK 50,000.
The entire profit generated by the fund was used as a source for
payment of the profit share, which were paid out to unit holders
once a year. With effect from April 1, 2008, the statute of the fund
has been changed according to the decision of the Czech National
Bank; this change was connected among others with the change of
the fund’s type from the income to growth type and with termination of paying-off of the profit share.
Investment strategy
This fund is not offered by Česká spořitelna any more. Operation
of the type purchase, i.e. unit certificates redemption from the client will still be executed.
Commentary of the fund manager
In 2013, the Czech bond market more-or-less followed developments in developed markets. Until mid May, the Czech bond market carried on in the buoyant developments that started the year
before. After that, the trend reversed and bond yields started to
gradually climb up (bond prices were going down).
Until May, weak data kept coming in from European economies,
pressing government bond yields to new all-time lows. Later, the
German economy started to show a better outlook of its economic
developments, indicating a potential stabilisation thanks to which
a turn in bond markets came and government bond yields started
to grow (drop in prices). Czech bonds followed this development.
The US central bank (FED) fuelled the increase in yield far more
strongly, as it clarified its steps in terms of a gradual reduction of
monetary stimuli in the economy. This resulted in an increase in
yields on the entire EUR and CZK yield curve. But the increase
in yields (drop in prices) was too steep, which is why yields could
not avoid a minor correction in July. Subsequently, during the rest
of the summer vacation, the macro-figures published in Europe
started to push bond yields up again. This growth was halted in
September, when the US central bank surprisingly failed to reduce
the volume of bonds purchased, creating pressure on revenue drop.
This was fuelled by protracted debates about the US budget. After
a year of threats, the Czech National Bank resorted to FX interventions in November, primarily due to low inflation. This resulted
in a sudden weakening of the crown against the euro by 5%, to
a level around CZK 27 per euro. This step was manifest primarily
by a drop in revenue on the short end. Thanks to that, bond prices
grew rapidly in December, driven primarily by better data from the
US and reduced monetary stimuli of the US central bank.
Corporate bond funds are represented in the fund to a lesser degree. Increased volatility was seen in credit markets only at the
end of the first half, when credit premiums on investment-level
corporate bonds as well as high interest-rate bonds tightened. At
that time, the situation turned and credit premiums kept tightening
until the end of the year.
The Management Board of Investiční společnost České spořitelny
intends to wind the Bondinvest mutual fund down with liquidation
in 2014. The investment company is authorised to decide about
the winding down of the Bondinvest mutual fund with liquidation
pursuant to Section 375 (a) of Act No. 240/2013 Coll., on investment companies and investment funds. Within 6 months of the
winding down of the unit trust, the investment company has to
liquidate its assets and pay its debts. Following the completion of
liquidation, it will file a request with the Czech National Bank to
delete Bondinvest from the list of mutual funds, and pay unit-holders their share in the liquidation remainder within three months
(Section 376 of Act No. 240/2013 Coll., in investment companies
and investment funds).
Full names of open-end mutual funds are stated in statutes or prospectuses of the funds. Conformable with rules valid for the collective investment the manager of funds refers to the fact,
that the present performance does not guarantee the performance in future. Investment in unit certificates implies a risk of a volatility of the current value of investment and yields of it and
that the return on initially invested amount cannot be guaranteed.

Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., SPOROTREND – otevřený podílový fond, 2013 Annual Report
SPOROTREND
Characteristics
An open-ended mutual equity fund is designed for dynamic investors who believe in positive development on stock markets of the
EU member states, as well as other Eastern Europe states. It is
designated for long-term investment with a horizon of 5 to 7 years.
The risk weight of the fund is 7 on a scale 1-7 of the Synthetic risk
and reward indicator.
Investment strategy
The fund manager invests mainly into the publicly traded liquid
stock of trustful Czech and foreign issuers from the EU member
states, candidate countries as well as another East European states.
The fund invests also on the Russian and Turkish equity markets.
The sector and regional allocation of the fund’, as well as the selection of individual stocks, is managed with the aim of surpassing
of the index investments returns. The equity risk is constrained by
a broad diversification of the portfolio; nevertheless a high value
volatility of unit certificates may occur. Moreover, also other invetment instruments permitted for the collective investment of
a standard fund by the Act on Collective Investment are bought
into the mutual fund’s portfolio.
Commentary of the fund manager
In 2013, individual stock markets performed very diversely. On the
one hand, US stocks (the main index of the US market, S&P500,
was up by 29.6%) performed very well, on the other, there was
a drop in emerging markets (the MSCI Emerging Markets index
was down by 7.1% in a CZK expression). Aside from the different rate of growth in profitability, also a change in sentiments in
different regions had an impact in terms of profitability growth.
Whereas in the US, relative valuation grew from significantly pessimistic levels back to levels that correspond to the long-term average, relative stock valuation on developing markets remained still
relatively low. Central and Eastern Europe trailed these developments; with the exception of Hungarian stock which strengthened
by 7.2%, in a CZK expression, no other local market managed
to post positive profitability. Turkish stock performed the worst
(-23.8%), followed by Czech (-4.8%), Russian (-1.3%), and Polish
stock (-0.5%), all in a CZK expression. The best sectors were sectors of cyclical and non-cyclical goods and services (+11.8% and
+9%, respectively), whereas the worst sectors were the electrical
engineering (-31.8%) and materials (-29.9%) sector.
The fund’s performance in 2013 was negative, as it did not manage
to erase the losses after sales on stock markets at the mid point of
the year. Furthermore, the end of the year brought increased stock
volatility in Turkey and Poland. Turkish sales were related to the
worsening development of the economy (weakening exchange rate,
high current account deficit), but primarily to political struggles
between the governing elites and the Gullenists. In Poland, stock
market performance reflected the planned changes in the set-up of
local pension funds and their “nationalisation”. The fear of a drain
of money from the system did not materialise, but the problem was
only postponed. Even then, it had an adverse impact on the performance of the Polish market. The relatively good performance
of the Hungarian market can be attributed to the low year-on-year
comparative basis and the good performance of the pharmaceutical sector (redemption of Egis stock with a premium, high interest
in Richter stock). The performance of the Czech market depended partially on the election struggle during which certain parties
planned to introduce special sectoral taxes (primarily in the financial and telecommunications sectors). There were also ambiguities
with respect to the potential expansion of ČEZ’s Temelín nuclear
power plant. Overall, the CEE region again showed that it is still
a developing market and it experienced higher volatility compared
to developed markets. Politics and non-standard political decisions
still play a non-negligible role, with an impact on local capital markets. The second factor that may explain the region’s worse performance in comparison with developed markets is the great weight of
companies from the material and energy sectors. Commodity prices
stagnated at best, and increasing costs of companies (pressure on
wages) had an adverse impact on the profitability of the companies
concerned.
Full names of open-end mutual funds are stated in statutes or prospectuses of the funds. Conformable with rules valid for the collective investment the manager of funds refers to the fact,
that the present performance does not guarantee the performance in future. Investment in unit certificates implies a risk of a volatility of the current value of investment and yields of it and

GLOBAL STOCKS FF
Characteristics
The fund is an open-ended mutual fund of funds designed for investment of at least five years. Its portfolio shows a broad diversification of investments focused on global markets. The risk weight
of the fund is 6 on a scale 1-7 of the Synthetic risk and reward
indicator.
Investment strategy
An aim of the fund is to provide to unit holders a long-run valuation of unit certificates primarily by investing into globally spreaded portfolio of securities of equity funds of collective investment
and in shares. Further, also other investment instruments permitted
for the collective investment of a standard fund by the Act on Collective Investment can be bought into the mutual fund’s portfolio.
Commentary of the fund manager
2013 was one of the most successful years in the history of stock
markets, as all three of the most important regions (USA, Europe,
and Japan) ended the year with an appreciation in excess of 25%
as expressed in USD. For the US S&P500 index, it was the best
year in the last sixteen years, with an appreciation of 29.6 % (!).
It closed the year with a new all-time high of 1848.4 points, high
above the original estimates of investment strategists. Whereas the
developed markets index reached an all-year performance of 24%,
emerging markets again did not do very well and closed the year
with a loss of -5%. The main feature of 2013 on stock markets was
growth in valuation which significantly exceeded the growth of
corporate profits. Thanks to that, stock prices went up significantly.
The extremely relaxed monetary policy of the largest central banks
continued to be the main driver of growth in the P/E indicator. In
December, the US central bank, somewhat surprisingly, resorted
to a first reduction in direct bond purchases, reducing its direct
monthly interventions from USD 85 bn to USD 75 bn. Unlike in
June, the market took the news favourably, rather as evidence of an
improvement in the macroeconomic environment. Optimism was
also supported by increasing estimates of another acceleration in
corporate profitability.
In the autumn, we reinvested the fund’s portfolio in line with the new
investment strategy, into global funds instead of the current mix of
regional funds. Funds are chosen for the model portfolio on the basis
of a mix of quantitative and qualitative criteria and their weight in
the portfolio (which must not exceed 20%) is determined by broad
global diversification, a clearly defined investment style (e.g., small
cap growth, absolute return, focus investing, etc.), and the return/risk
ratio. The monetary non-hedging strategy remains unchanged.
Over the course of the year, the fund’s unit certificates added
28,0% and the fund closed the successful 2013 6.2% above its
benchmark.
Full names of open-end mutual funds are stated in statutes or prospectuses of the funds. Conformable with rules valid for the collective investment the manager of funds refers to the fact,
that the present performance does not guarantee the performance in future. Investment in unit certificates implies a risk of a volatility of the current value of investment and yields of it and
that the return on initially invested amount cannot be guaranteed.

Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., TOP STOCKS – otevřený podílový fond, 2013 Annual Report
TOP STOCKS
Characteristics
The open-ended mutual equity fund, designed for experienced investors who can afford to lay aside their invested capital for at least
five years. The selection of the particular stock titles is managed
with the aim of achieving regular positive annual valuation in CZK
terms. At the same time, the potential of a long-term evaluation of
the unit holders´ investments shall be saved. The risk weight of the
fund is 7 on a scale 1-7 of the Synthetic risk and reward indicator.
Investment strategy
The fund manager invests permanently on the stock market. The
aim is to provide unit holders with a long-term evaluation of unit
certificates through investment in a concentrated portfolio of
shares traded in stock markets, denominated in relevant currencies.
Particular shares for the long-term evaluation are purchased in the
fund via active selection (“stock picking”), whereas the proportion in the portfolio of shares and investment instruments bearing
shares risk may achieve from 66% to 100%. With regard to the
emphasis on higher concentration of the portfolio and on a longer
investment horizon of particular investments, the achieved assets
turnover is rather low. The fund holds the currency risk resulting
from investments in local currencies; this risk is actively managed
by means of available hedging instruments.
Commentary of the fund manager
In spite of the initial scepticism of retail investors and investment
strategists, developed stock markets showed very decent appreciation last year. The US stock market, measured by the S&P500
index, was up by 29.6% in 2013. The 5.7% growth in company
profitability was slightly below the 6.1% profitability growth
achieved in 2012. Last year’s significantly above-average performance was, to a large degree, due to the growth in relative valuation which was still pessimistic at the beginning of 2013, in line
with the then-prevailing fears of a continued Eurozone crisis. Also
the European stock market, measured by the Europe Stoxx 600
index, grew by an above-average 17.4% last year.
In 2013, the ISČS Top Stocks fund’s unit certificate appreciated
by 33.9%. The fund ranked 5th out of 17 funds in a table of performance of internally defined competitive funds. The fund’s aboveaverage performance increased the most due to the appreciation
of the shares of ISIS Pharmaceuticals, Alnylam Pharmaceuticals,
Pandora, and NPS Pharmaceuticals, which grew by more than
100% last year. On the other hand, last year’s performance was
most reduced by unsuccessful investments in Amarin and ION
Geophysical.
The volume of the fund’s assets grew from the initial CZK 1.957
bn to CZK 2.586 bn at the end of 2013, primarily thanks to the
above-average market appreciation of the fund, as there was only
a slight increase in new investments during the course of the year,
amounting to CZK 26 million.
Last year, nine major changes took place in the composition
of the portfolio. The stock of Quicksilver, Avis Budget Group,
Auxilium Pharmaceuticals, Teva Pharmaceuticals, Abercrombie
& Fitch, Alnylam Pharmaceuticals, ISIS Pharmaceuticals, Amarin, and ION Geophysical were sold out. Newly, stock of Coach,
JWNordstrom, Vertex Pharmaceuticals, Celgene, Reckitt Benckiser, Ralph Lauren, and McDonald‘s was purchased. The stock of
NPS Pharmaceuticals and Sarepta Therapeutics, which had previously been included in the “Lieutenant Dan’s Portfolio” investment idea, was promoted to constitute a separate investment idea.
The stock of Prolor Biotech, Achillion Pharmaceuticals, Amicus
Therapeutics a Rigel Pharmaceuticals was sold from the “Lieutenant Dan’s Portfolio” investment idea. Newly, the stock of Enanta
Pharmaceuticals and Sunesis Pharmaceuticals was purchased for
the “Lieutenant Dan’s Portfolio” investment idea.
Thanks to those changes, the share of the consumer sector increased by approximately 5 percentage points over the course of
last year, to 37.5% as at the end of 2013. In terms of sectoral
representation, the healthcare sector follows, with 32.2%, and the
technological sector with 25% (the share of both these sectors in
the portfolio was reduced slightly = by approximately 1 percentage point). On the other hand, the commodity sector dropped the
most due to portfolio changes, from 7.0% to 3.5% at the end of
2013. As at the last day of 2013, the portfolio of the ISČS Top
Stocks fund comprised 25 investment ideas.
Aside from the biotechnological industry which accounts for
the greatest part of the portfolio in terms of industry distribution and which is currently reaping the fruit of previous technological advances in genetic research. Other sectors I consider
interesting include certain consumer sector segments, such as
restaurants, clothing, and luxury goods. Last year, these industries noted a slow-down in their growth, due to a shift of
a portion of consumption back to automobile and real estate
purchases, which experienced only slight growth at the beginning of the economic cycle. I think that once the postponed
consumption from previous years is saturated with respect to
these two goods, consumption in the segments of non-essential
consumer goods will grow again.
The performance of a one-time investment since the establishment of the fund as at 31 December 2013 was at 7.84%. This
yield roughly corresponds to the sum of the growth in profitability
of the companies historically included in the fund’s portfolio and
of the dividends collected, net of the cost of the management of
the fund. The relative valuation level currently approximates the
25
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., TOP STOCKS – otevřený podílový fond, 2013 Annual Report
level at which the fund was traded shortly after its establishment,
and although I do think that the present relative valuation level
still slightly undervalues the growth potential of the companies of
which the portfolio is currently comprised, we can likely expect
that in the future, the long-term yield of the fund will continue
to be a function of profitability growth, the dividends collected,
and the costs related to the management of the fund. Naturally,
my goal is to successfully build on this long-term above-average
performance of the fund in upcoming years.

KONZERVATIVNÍ MIX FF
Characteristics
The open-ended profile fund of funds with a recommended investment horizon of three years. The fund is suitable for investment
aims of continual formation of capital with complex investments
spreading in its portfolio and in a conservative relation among the
money, bond and stock markets. The risk weight of the fund is 3 on
a scale 1-7 of the Synthetic risk and reward indicator.
continued to be the main driver of growth in the value of the P/E
indicator. In December, the US central bank, somewhat surprisingly, resorted to a first reduction in direct bond purchases, reducing its direct monthly interventions from USD 85 bn to USD 75
bn. Unlike in June, the market took the news favourably, rather as
evidence of an improvement in the macroeconomic environment.
Optimism was also supported by increasing estimates of another
acceleration in corporate profitability.
Investment strategy
The aim of the mutual fund is to achieve in a long-run horizon
a performance higher than a benchmark. Means collected in the
mutual fund are invested primarily in securities of money market
funds that supplement securities of bond funds and, in a smaller
extent, equity funds. Further, also shares, bonds and money market
instruments permitted by the law for the collective investment of
a standard fund may be purchased into the mutual fund’s portfolio. The portion of the stock part of the mutual fund’s assets shall
be actively managed; the neutral weight of this part of the mutual
fund’s assets shall be 10%.
Commentary of the fund manager
2013 was one of the most successful years in the history of stock
markets, as all three of the most important regions (USA, Europe,
and Japan) ended the year with an appreciation in excess of 25%
as expressed in USD. For the US S&P 500 index, it was the best
year in the last 16 years, with an appreciation of 29.6% (!). It
closed the year with a new all-time high of 1848.4 points, high
above the original estimates of investment strategists. Whereas the
developed markets index reached an all-year performance of 24%,
emerging markets again did not do very well and closed the year
with a loss of -5%. The main feature of 2013 on stock markets was
growth in valuation which significantly exceeded the growth of
corporate profits. Thanks to that, stock prices went up significantly.
The extremely relaxed monetary policy of the largest central banks
Overall, the stock market did well on the background of increasing yields of government bonds of economically strong countries
- for example, the yield of US 10-year bonds grew from 1.76% to
3.03%. The expected drop in Czech bonds did not happen, which
is why the fund’s mixed portfolio profited fully from growth in
the prices of stocks, in which we were significantly overweighted
throughout 2013 (the share of equities in the fund’s assets was
around 13%). The segment of high-yield bonds again added an
additional positive yield of 6%; here, the shift in the government
bond curve was more than offset by the tightening of the credit
spread. The segment of European high-yield bonds that were represented in the portfolio throughout the year, achieved a total yield
of 8.3%. The spread on the European periphery tightened; but no
such bonds (Italy, Spain), were represented in the portfolio. For the
commodity market, 2013 was again negative, with a -9.6% drop
in the general DJUBS index, and for example gold lost 28% of its
value.
Over the course of the year, the fund’s unit certificates added 2.9%
and the fund closed the successful 2013 1.1% above its benchmark. The fund noted the highest increase in its assets since its
foundation, from CZK 1.169 bn at the end of 2012 to CZK 5.207
bn at the end of 2013.
Full names of open-end mutual funds are stated in statutes or prospectuses of the funds. Conformable with rules valid for the collective investment the manager of funds refers to the fact,

Commentary of the fund manager
2013 was one of the most successful years in the history of stock
markets, as all three of the most important regions (USA, Europe,
and Japan) ended the year with an appreciation in excess of 25%
as expressed in USD. For the US S&P 500 index, it was the best
year in the last 16 years, with an appreciation of 29.6% (!). It
closed the year with a new all-time high of 1848.4 points, high
above the original estimates of investment strategists. Whereas the
developed markets index reached an all-year performance of 24%,
emerging markets again did not do very well and closed the year
with a loss of -5%. The main feature of 2013 on stock markets was
growth in valuation which significantly exceeded the growth of
corporate profits. Thanks to that, stock prices went up significantly.
The extremely relaxed monetary policy of the largest central banks
continued to be the main driver of growth in the P/E indicator. In
December, the US central bank, somewhat surprisingly, resorted
to a first reduction in direct bond purchases, reducing its direct
monthly interventions from USD 85 bn to USD 75 bn. Unlike in
June, the market took the news favourably, rather as evidence of an
improvement in the macroeconomic environment. Optimism was
also supported by increasing estimates of another acceleration in
corporate profitability.
Overall, the stock market did well on the background of increasing
yields from government bonds of economically strong countries for example, the yield of US 10-year bonds grew from 1.76% to
3.03%. The expected drop in Czech bonds did not happen, which
is why the fund’s mixed portfolio profited fully from growth in
the prices of stocks, in which we were significantly overweighted
throughout 2013 (the share of stock in the fund’s assets was around
80%). The segment of high-yield bonds added an additional positive yield of 6%; here, the shift in the government bond curve was
more than offset by the tightening of the credit spread. The segment of European high-yield bonds that were represented in the
portfolio throughout the year achieved a total yield of 8.3%. The
spread on the European periphery tightened; but no such bonds (Italy, Spain), were represented in the portfolio. For the commodity
market, 2013 was again negative, with a -9.6% drop in the general
DJUBS index, and for example gold lost 28% of its value over the
course of last year.
Over the course of the year, the fund’s unit certificates added
17.0% and the fund closed the successful 2013 3.4% above its
benchmark.
Full names of open-end mutual funds are stated in statutes or prospectuses of the funds. Conformable with rules valid for the collective investment the manager of funds refers to the fact,
that the present performance does not guarantee the performance in future. Investment in unit certificates implies a risk of a volatility of the current value of investment and yields of it and
that the return on initially invested amount cannot be guaranteed.

OSOBNÍ PORTFOLIO 4
Characteristics
Growth fund of funds with a prevalence of securities of bond and
equity funds of collective investment, designed for medium-term
investments. Recommended time of investment is at least four
years. Suitable for investors, whose reference currency is CZK and
who are interested not only in mediated investments in a stable,
broadly differentiated and liquid portion of the portfolio, but also
in a long-term successive capital creation. The risk weight of the
fund is 3 on a scale 1-7 of the Synthetic risk and reward indicator.
Investment strategy
The long-term aim of the fund is to achieve an average yearly appreciation that surpasses the level achieved by Czech government
bonds. At the same time, the effort is focused on results, when
the maximum loss during one year would be with a high probability limited on 3%. The priority aim however is to achieve a 100%
hedging of the invested capital during every four years, starting
always at June 1. Fund uses financial derivatives for the currency
hedging.
Commentary of the fund manager
The fund was invested primarily in conservative instruments
throughout the year. Most of the portfolio was made up primarily
by Czech government bonds and money market instruments. In
2013, the Czech bond market more-or-less followed developments
in developed markets. Until mid May, the Czech bond market carried on in the buoyant developments that started the year before.
After that, the trend reversed and bond yields started to gradually
climb up (bond prices were going down).
Incoming weak data from European economies pressed government bond yields to new all-time lows. In May, the German econ-
omy started to show a better outlook in terms of its economic
development. Thanks to that, a turn in bond markets came and
government bond yields started to grow (a drop in prices). Czech
bonds followed this development. But the US central bank (FED)
fuelled the increase in yield far more strongly, as it clarified its
steps in terms of a gradual reduction of monetary stimuli in the
economy. But the increase in yields (drop in prices) was too
steep, which is why yields could not avoid a minor correction in
July. Subsequently, during the rest of the summer vacation, the
macro-figures published in Europe started to push bond yields up
again. This growth was halted in September, when the US central
bank surprisingly failed to reduce the volume of bonds purchased,
creating pressure on revenue drop. This was fuelled by protracted
debates about the US budget. After a year of threats, the Czech
National Bank resorted to FX interventions in November, primarily due to low inflation. This resulted in a sudden weakening of
the crown against the euro by 5%, to a level around CZK 27. This
step was manifest primarily by a drop in revenue on the short
end. Bond prices grew rapidly in December, driven primarily by
better data from the US and reduced monetary stimuli of the US
central bank.
In spite of the increase in yields, primarily on the longer end, their
levels are still very low. That kept us from going for riskier assets.
In terms of riskier assets, the fund’s portfolio only features corporate bonds, high-yield bonds, and a real estate fund.
Increased volatility was seen in credit markets only at the end of
the first half, when credit premiums on investment-level corporate bonds as well as high interest-rate bonds tightened. At that
moment, the situation turned and credit premiums kept tightening
until the end of the year.

flowing with free liquidity, and additional approximately CZK
200 billion. This massive inflow of free liquidity was naturally
immediately reflected in inter-bank deposit market rates, which
dropped sharply.
Commentary of the fund manager
Most of the first half of the year on the corporate bond market was
marked by a tightening of credit premiums which was supported
primarily by high investor demand for higher yields in an environment of low interest rates and excellent corporate sector fundamentals. Growth in credit markets was also supported by favourable
macroeconomic data from the US and German economies. A brief
correction on the market occurred in May and June, when public
unrest in Turkey and an announcement of the US central bank
(Fed) of a gradual reduction of the government bond redemption
programme caused a correction on the financial markets. Whereas
swap rates and government bond yields grew relatively significantly, the expansion of credit premiums on investment-level corporate
bonds was not striking. Another turn came at the end of June, and
credit premiums started to tighten slowly. All previous losses were
erased in the course of two months and credit premiums gradually
stabilised. The market staggered lightly in November, when credit
premiums expanded slightly. But premiums started to tighten again
at the end of the year.
Traditional stability prevailed on the CZK money market in the
first three quarters of the year. There was greater volatility only
on the more liquid market - FRA (Forward Rate Agreement). The
high level of free liquidity on the market pushed the yields of conservative money market instruments and short government bonds
to new lows. A change on the market only occurred in November,
when the CNB Banking Council decided to employ interventions
to significantly weaken the Czech crown. By this decision, the
central bank flooded the market, which had already been over-
The low interest rate environment did not allow the fund to invest
into equities. During the first half of the year, the composition of
the portfolio of Fond řízených výnosů changed, with an increase in
the share of investment-level corporate bonds to the detriment of
government bonds. This also extended the average maturity of the
portfolio. The level of diversification of the fund’s portfolio was up
significantly. The average modified portfolio duration was kept at
very low levels using hedging instruments.
Investment strategy
The fund manager invests in domestic short duration bonds, in
money market instruments and in European shares with an expected high dividend yield, low volatility and low evaluation compared
to their book value. A weight of shares and instruments bearing
a risk of shares shall not exceed 25% of the mutual fund’s assets
value. In the case of a decline in value of shares in the fund’s portfolio during the calendar year, their weight shall be gradually lowered so that the bond portion of the portfolio would make possible
to achieve a positive appreciation of the fund in the given year. The
criterion of the fund is to achieve a positive performance in every
calendar year.
Full names of open-end mutual funds are stated in statutes or prospectuses of the funds. Conformable with rules valid for the collective investment the manager of funds refers to the fact,
that the present performance does not guarantee the performance in future. Investment in unit certificates implies a risk of a volatility of the current value of investment and yields of it and
that the return on initially invested amount cannot be guaranteed.

ČS fond životního cyklu 2020 FF
Characteristics
It is an open-ended mutual fund of funds with an optimized Investment strategy adjusted to long-term investment horizon. This fund
is designed for investors who plan to retire in the year 2020 or
around this year. The risk weight of the fund is 4 on a scale 1-7 of
the Synthetic risk and reward indicator.
Investment strategy
The fund invests namely in securities of equity funds, bond funds,
money market funds and in funds with performance linked to the
development of commodities price according to a beforehand stipulated scheme of assets allocation, prepared for fund’s unit holders
who plan to retire around the year 2020. The stock portion shall be
primarily invested by means of index funds unit certificates. The
fund’s construction allows from the very beginning for higher representation of assets classes with a higher yield potential (shares,
commodities) and successive decrease of their exposition in such
way that the fund in fact will be transformed in a money market
fund at the end of the investment horizon. In the last two years
before the target date will be the volatility of the share values near
0 degree.
Commentary of the fund manager
2013 was one of the most successful years in the history of equity markets, as all three of the most important regions (USA, Europe, and Japan) ended the year with an appreciation in excess of
25% as expressed in USD. For the US S&P 500 index, it was the
best year in the last 16 years, with an appreciation of 29.6% (!).
It closed the year with a new all-time high of 1848.4 points, high
above the original estimates of investment strategists. Whereas
the developed markets index reached an all-year performance of
24%, emerging markets again did not do very well and closed
the year with a loss of -5%. The main feature of 2013 on equity
markets was growth in valuation which significantly exceeded
the growth of corporate profits. Thanks to that, stock prices went
up significantly. The extremely relaxed monetary policy of the
largest central banks continued to be the main driver of growth
in the value of the P/E indicator. In December, the US central
bank, somewhat surprisingly, resorted to a first reduction in direct bond purchases, reducing its direct monthly interventions
from USD 85 bn to USD 75 bn. Unlike in June, the market took
the news favourably, rather as evidence of an improvement in
the macroeconomic environment. Optimism was also supported by increasing estimates of another acceleration in corporate
profitability.
Overall, the equity market did well on the background of increasing government bonds of economically strong countries - for example, the yield of US 10-year bonds grew from 1.76% to 3.03%.
The expected drop in Czech bonds did not happen, which is why
the fund’s mixed portfolio profited fully from growth in the prices
of stocks, in which we were significantly overweighted throughout
2013 (the share of equities in the fund’s assets was around 38%).
The segment of high-yield bonds again added an additional positive yield of 6%; here, the shift in the government bond curve was
more than offset by the tightening of the credit spread. The segment of European high-yield bonds that were represented in the
portfolio throughout the year, achieved a total yield of 8.3%. The
spread on the European periphery tightened; but no such bonds
(Italy, Spain), were represented in the portfolio. For the commodity market, 2013 was again negative, with a -9.6% drop in
the general DJUBS index, and for example gold lost 28% of its
value. The share of commodities in the portfolio throughout the
year amounted to 4.5%.
Over the course of the year, the fund’s unit certificates added 6.7%
and the fund closed the successful 2013 1.3% above its benchmark.
Full names of open-end mutual funds are stated in statutes or prospectuses of the funds. Conformable with rules valid for the collective investment the manager of funds refers to the fact,
that the present performance does not guarantee the performance in future. Investment in unit certificates implies a risk of a volatility of the current value of investment and yields of it and

LIKVIDITNÍ FOND
Characteristics
Commentary of the fund manager
This fund is categorized as a money market fund. The recommended investment horizon is 6 months. The fund is designed for
investors who endeavour to achieve a higher appreciation of their
investments than the ordinary bank time deposits interests in the
lower investment ranges. The risk weight of the fund is 1 on a scale
1-7 of the Synthetic risk and reward indicator.
Traditional stability prevailed on the CZK money market in the
first three quarters of the year. There was greater volatility only
on the more liquid market - FRA (Forward Rate Agreement). The
high level of free liquidity on the market pushed the yields of conservative money market instruments and short government bonds
to new lows. The yield of six-month to one-year treasury bills in
that period held between 0.11% and 0.16%. A change on the market only occurred in November, when the CNB Banking Council
decided to employ interventions to significantly weaken the Czech
crown. By this decision, the central bank flooded the market,
which had already been overflowing with free liquidity, and additional approximately CZK 200 billion. This massive inflow of free
liquidity was naturally immediately reflected in inter-bank deposit
market rates. The three-month Pribor rate dropped by 0.06% and
the one-year rate by as much as 0.10%. Also rates on the FRA
market dropped by approximately 0.15% to 0.20%. Treasury bill
yields reached their all-time lows, when the subsequent auction of
nine-month bills ended with a yield of 0.07%.
Investment strategy
The fund’s portfolio contains predominantly Czech treasury bills,
Czech fixed interest government bonds with a maturity under one
year and Czech variable interest government bonds. The time deposits in banks are also used. The securities are hold until their
maturity. The weighted average maturity of fund assets do not exceed 6 months. The weighted average life of fund assets do not
exceed 12 months. The aim of the Investment strategy is to provide
the most conservative investors with such a money market fund,
which will assure the appreciation of invested means with the
highest level of safety and reliability; all that under condition of retaining of the invested capital value (without a formal guarantee).
The average modified duration of the portfolio of the Likviditní
fond throughout the year held at low levels, as did average maturity. For most of the year, the portfolio was dominated by short-term
and medium-term deposits. The share of treasury bills grew in the
last quarter.
Full names of open-end mutual funds are stated in statutes or prospectuses of the funds. Conformable with rules valid for the collective investment the manager of funds refers to the fact,
that the present performance does not guarantee the performance in future. Investment in unit certificates implies a risk of a volatility of the current value of investment and yields of it and

Privátní portfolio AR 0
Characteristics
Commentary of the fund manager
This is a special fund of funds. The recommended time of investing is at least two years. The minimum initial purchase amount of
unit certificates is CZK 1 million; but ISČS may issue unit certificates even for a lower amount. The risk weight of the fund is 3 on
a scale 1-7 of the Synthetic risk and reward indicator.
In the first months of 2013, longer government bonds carried on
in their good performance that has lasted for several years already.
The shortest, roughly two-year bonds, however, had no room for
appreciation. The gross yield of 0.15% p.a. at the beginning of 2013
closed the year at precisely the same, essentially minimum level.
Investment strategy
In the second half of the year, room for the appreciation was closed
even in the case of long bonds. For most of the year, appreciation
therefore had to be achieved with the assistance of high-risk bonds,
and essentially only on the high-yield bond market. In order to retain only a certain level of overall risk, AR 0 can use aggressive
bonds only to a limited degree. These investments definitely cannot
reverse the overall development and ensure high appreciation. An
appreciation of 0.4% for the entire year in the net is due to the use of
high-yield bonds and also of the segment of alternative investments
which, with its appreciation of 3-5%, helped offset the low performance of exhausted Czech government bonds. Appreciation can be
rated favourably in comparison with other regular very conservative investments. Many of them closed the year with no appreciation
whatsoever.
The aim of the fund’s strategy is to provide the unit holders with
a long-term appreciation of their unit certificates primarily through
investments in securities of the bond funds of collective investment. The aim is achieved also by an occasional allocation of the
dynamic part of the portfolio (bonds versus investment instruments
bearing the real estate risk and the so-called alternative investments). The characteristic of this fund is the higher turnover of the
dynamic part of its portfolio, controlled by the active management.
The fund is namely subject to currency risk resulting from investments in local currencies. The currency, credit and interest risks
are actively managed by means of accessible hedging instruments.
Full names of open-end mutual funds are stated in statutes or prospectuses of the funds. Conformable with rules valid for the collective investment the manager of funds refers to the fact,
that the present performance does not guarantee the performance in future. Investment in unit certificates implies a risk of a volatility of the current value of investment and yields of it and
that the return on initially invested amount cannot be guaranteed.

Characteristics
It is a special open-ended mutual fund of funds. The characteristic
of this fund is the higher turnover of the dynamic part of its portfolio. The fund is designed for favourers of the active management.
The investor should be able to accept even the shorter periods of
a negative development of the unit certificate’s price. The recommended investment horizon is at least 4 years. The minimum initial
investment in unit certificates is CZK 100. The risk weight of the
fund is 3 on a scale 1-7 of the Synthetic risk and reward indicator.
Investment strategy
The fund invests namely in securities of bond and equity funds of
collective investment. The currency, credit and interest risks are
actively managed by means of attainable hedging instruments. The
aim is achieved primarily by the active allocation of the dynamic
portfolio’s part (bonds versus investment instruments bearing equity risk, or real estate and the so-called alternative investments).
The neutral weight of particular portions should in the long-run approach these values: bond markets 55%, stock markets 25%, real
estate markets 10% and alternative investments 10%.
Commentary of the fund manager
Czech government bonds continued to perform well in the first
half of the year and as in previous years, the second half of the
year was peaceful on the markets. The yield of the ten-year bond,
for example, did drop to 1.5% p.a. in May, but it went back up in
the second half of the year, stabilising at around 2.3%. This level
remained stable, with slight fluctuations, until the end of the year
and definitely better corresponded to developments abroad, where
revenues also increased to higher levels. Czech government bonds
no longer served as the driver of performance.
We made abundant use of higher-risk bonds, primarily of the high
yield segment, throughout the year. Around autumn, we started to
increase the share of those bonds, which contrasted sharply with
our approach to bonds of developing economies. There, we were
loosing confidence and only kept reducing our exposure throughout the second half of the year.
We kept a relatively high investment quota in equity markets
(around 90%), primarily in the second half of the year. Only at the
end of the year we briefly kept a zero equity position. Our stock investments were directed primarily into stock on major markets and
we were gradually leaving our positions on developing markets.
The dynamism of the alternative part of the portfolio supported
the performance achieved and it also increased its correlation to
the equity market. We naturally see the increased correlation as
a problem. The diversification effect is thereby being lost.
The fund appreciated its assets by 4%, including fees. This result
is best evident in comparison with investments into government
bonds, which were at 0%.
Full names of open-end mutual funds are stated in statutes or prospectuses of the funds. Conformable with rules valid for the collective investment the manager of funds refers to the fact,
that the present performance does not guarantee the performance in future. Investment in unit certificates implies a risk of a volatility of the current value of investment and yields of it and
that the return on initially invested amount cannot be guaranteed.

Characteristics
It is a special open-ended mutual fund of funds (OPF). The characteristic of this fund is the higher turnover of the dynamic part

and definitely better corresponded to developments abroad, where
revenues also increased to higher levels. Czech government bonds
no longer served as the driver of performance.
We used the segment of aggressive bonds more extensively in the
first half of the year. These bonds of emerging countries and socalled high-yield bonds constituted approximately 38% of the portfolio at the beginning of the year, and significantly supplemented
the lesser utilisation of the equity quota. But we reduced the share in
the first half of the year, primarily in the case of bonds of emerging
countries. This turn away from risky bonds in the portfolio continued for the rest of the year.
With small exceptions, we held a high share of equities throughout nearly the entire year. We reduced this position significantly,
to nearly a zero percentage of equities at the end of the year when
the market responded nervously to the notice of US FED about the
planned reduction in supporting programmes. Throughout the year,
we significantly preferred investments on developed markets.
The dynamics of the alternative part of the portfolio supported the
performance achieved and it also increased its correlation to the
stock market. We naturally see the increased correlation as a problem. The diversification effect is being lost.
The fund appreciated its assets by more than 8%, including fees.
This result best stands out in comparison with investment into the
high yield bond segment itself, whose performance was several percentage points lower.
Full names of open-end mutual funds are stated in statutes or prospectuses of the funds. Conformable with rules valid for the collective investment the manager of funds refers to the fact,

Characteristics
Commentary of the fund manager
It is a special open-ended mutual fund of funds. The characteristic
of this fund is the higher turnover of the dynamic part of its portfolio. The fund is designed for favourers of the active management.
The investor should be able to accept even the longer period of
a negative development of the unit certificate’s price. The recommended investment horizon is at least 7 years. The minimum initial
investment in unit certificates is CZK 100. The risk weight of the
fund is 5 on a scale 1-7 of the Synthetic risk and reward indicator.
Unlike in the past, we decided to make significant use of higherrisk bond segments in our global asset allocation, such as so-called
high-yield bonds and bonds of emerging countries. At the beginning of the year, they amounted to 40% of our portfolio; we always
combined that share with investments into stock. At the beginning
of the year, the share of equities was only 25% (i.e., one third of
the quota), and it had climbed to 90% of the quota by the end of
the quarter. From this point of view, second quarter only meant
a gradual retreat from risk, which peaked in the last days of June
when we briefly sold out equities down to 0%. In the second half of
the year, we increasingly preferred equities to other investments,
and in the last months, the utilisation of the equity quota amounted
to 90%. We increasingly relatively preferred equities of developed
markets, especially in the US and in Japan.
Investment strategy
The fund invests namely in securities of bond and equity funds of

and alternative investments 15%.
An alternative part of the portfolio improved its dynamism, having

Characteristics
Commentary of the fund manager
A special fund of funds. The fund is suitable for CZK investors,
who are interested on returns from investments on equity markets
and at the same time they wish to profit from relatively short-term
investment occasions. Characteristic higher turn-over of the dynamic part of portfolio is available for those, who prefer an active management. Investor should be able to accept also longer
period of negative performance as well as higher volatility of the
unit certificate value. Recommended investment horizon is 5 years
and longer. The risk weight of the fund is 6 on a scale 1-7 of the
Synthetic risk and reward indicator.
We kept a very high level of investment into equities for nearly
the entire first half of 2013, when stock markets continued to grow
with low volatility. On average, our equity exposure was over 87%.
Thanks to the favourable market developments and an appropriate
regional asset allocation, the fund reported annual appreciation in
excess of 20% in May. A price correction at the end of the sixmonth period meant a worsening in performance to 15% year on
year, which is still decent. At the very end of the six-month period,
we temporarily resorted to a more conservative portfolio, holding
equity market exposure of only 39%. This reduction in risk assets
was due to our fear of market response to the discontinuation of
support programmes in the US in the near future, announced by the
US central bank. The conservative set-up of the fund’s portfolio,
however, lasted only for a few days. We returned to an investment
level of 90% very soon and held it, with minor changes, for the rest
of the year. The trend development in equity markets, especially
on major developed markets, did not force us to make any major
changes. In terms of portfolio composition, we increasingly preferred a portfolio focused solely on these major markets.
Investment strategy
The fund invests primarily in equity funds of collective investments and other investment instruments bearing the equity risk.
The portion of the equity part in the portfolio is actively managed,
as well as its sector and regional structure. In the neutral weight,
the equity instruments portion should be 100% of the portfolio.
Currency, credit and interest risk is actively is actively managed.
The fund has no benchmark; its target is a positive performance on
defined investment horizon.
At the end of the year, annual appreciation of nearly 20% was
achieved, which exceeded other equity investments in most cases.
Full names of open-end mutual funds are stated in statutes or prospectuses of the funds. Conformable with rules valid for the collective investment the manager of funds refers to the fact,
that the present performance does not guarantee the performance in future. Investment in unit certificates implies a risk of a volatility of the current value of investment and yields of it and
that the return on initially invested amount cannot be guaranteed.

Characteristics
Commentary of the fund manager
A special fund of funds. It is focused on products with real estate
theme. The fund’s target is to bring to its shareholders the absolute
return no matter the actual economical cycle. The portion of the
real estate part in the portfolio is actively managed, as well as its
sector and regional structure. Currency, credit and interest risk is
actively managed. The risk weight of the fund is 5 on a scale 1-7
of the Synthetic risk and reward indicator.
This mutual fund, focused on global real estate markets, reached
fairly good performance in 2013 in spite of the fact that prices on
the real estate market dropped at the mid point of the year due to
a correction on the equity markets. The fund practically erased its
six-month performance. Compared to the benchmark, however, it
still did very well, as the benchmark had gone through a far greater
correction. In the second half of the year, the nervousness disappeared from the markets and they returned to price growth in the
real estate. This fact is documented by the sustained growth in real
estate in the US in 2013, measured by the S&P/Case-Shiller Composite Index.
Investment strategy
The fund invests primarily in the real estate funds of collective investment and other investment instruments bearing the real estate
markets risk. The portion of the real estate part in the portfolio is
actively managed, as well as its sector and regional structure. In
the neutral weight, the real-estate instruments portion should be
100% of the portfolio. Currency, credit and interest risk is actively
managed. The fund has no benchmark; its target is a positive performance on defined investment horizon.
Due to this and to other factors, the fund ended 2013 with a performance of 3.4%, more than 4% above the comparative benchmark.
The fund maintained a high level of investment practically for the
entire year.

Characteristics
Commentary of the fund manager
A special fund of funds. The aim of the fund is to achieve longterm positive absolute performance.The fund is suitable for CZK
investors, who are interested on returns from hedge funds of collective investment, commodity funds of collective investment and
other alternative investment instruments. Recommended investment horizon is 5 years and longer. The risk weight of the fund is 5
on a scale 1-7 of the Synthetic risk and reward indicator.
For most of the first half of 2013, the development of alternative
investments carried on in a positive spirit similar to that of the second half of 2012. This lasted until mid May, when the increasing
weakness of this segment and the increasing correlation between
investments focused on risk investments. The drop of equity markets was apparent in this segment, too. Fortunately, the excessive
reaction of the markets to Fed’s announcement soon faded away
and the market returned to a stable growth trend with increasingly
decreasing volatility. Strategies focused on the equity markets did
the best throughout the entire period, without any great surprises.
Investment strategy
The aim of the Investment strategy of the fund is to provide investors the long-term positive absolute performance of their CZK investment via investing in unit certificates of mutual funds, investing primarily into alternative investment instruments. The portion
of this part in the portfolio is actively managed, as well as its sector

managed by means of available hedging instruments. The fund has
no benchmark; its target is a positive performance on defined investment horizon.
The fund achieved net appreciation of 4.8%.

Characteristics
Commentary of the fund manager
It is a special fund of funds. The fund is designed for investors
with CZK as a refference currency CZK, who are looking for an
easy way of taking part in the development of international stock
markets by means of broadly diversified and liquid equity portion
of the portfolio, which consists primarily of the securities of equity funds. Recommended time of investment is at least five years.
The minimum initial investment in unit certificates is CZK 100
thousand. The risk weight of the fund is 7 on a scale 1-7 of the
Synthetic risk and reward indicator.
2013 was one of the most successful years in the history of stock
markets, as all three of the most important regions (USA, Europe,
and Japan) ended the year with an appreciation in excess of 25% as
expressed in USD. For the US S&P 500 index, it was the best year
in the last 16 years, with an appreciation of 29.6% (!). It closed
the year with a new all-time high of 1848.4 points, high above the
original estimates of investment strategists. Whereas the developed
markets index reached an all-year performance of 24%, emerging
markets again did not do very well and closed the year with a loss
of -5%. The Central and East European region, which constitutes
40% of the fund’s benchmark, did even worse, with a USD performance of -7.2%. The drop in Turkish equities due to a corruption
scandal accounted for most of the drop in the region in December.
The main feature of 2013 on stock markets was growth in valuation which significantly exceeded the growth of corporate profits.
Thanks to that, stock prices went up significantly. The extremely
relaxed monetary policy of the largest central banks continued to
be the main driver of growth in the value of the P/E indicator. In
December, the US central bank, somewhat surprisingly, resorted
to a first reduction in direct bond purchases, reducing its direct
monthly interventions from USD 85 bn to USD 75 bn. Unlike in
June, the market took the news favourably, rather as evidence of an
improvement in the macroeconomic environment. Optimism was
also supported by increasing estimates of another acceleration in
corporate profitability.
Investment strategy
The prevailing part of the fund´s portfolio is created by securities
of equity funds of collective investment, shares and investment instruments bearing equity risk. The dimension of the equity part
as well as the sector and regional structure are actively managed.
The currency, credit and interest risks are also actively managed
by means of attainable hedging instruments. The fund can invest in
the supplementary liquid assets such as deposits and time deposits.
Full names of open-end mutual funds are stated in statutes or prospectuses of the funds. Conformable with rules valid for the collective investment the manager of funds refers to the fact,
that the present performance does not guarantee the performance in future. Investment in unit certificates implies a risk of a volatility of the current value of investment and yields of it and
that the return on initially invested amount cannot be guaranteed.

Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., Dluhopisový fond – otevřený podílový fond, 2013 Annual Report
Dluhopisový fond
Characteristics
The open-ended mutual bond fund is designed for the more conservative sector of investors to provide them with a medium to
long-term appreciation of units mainly investing in bonds with low
credit risk. The recommended minimum investment period is three
years or more. The risk weight of the fund is 3 on a scale 1-7 of the
synthetic risk and reward indicator.
Investment strategy
The fund manager invests mainly into fixed-rate bonds portfolio,
to a lesser extention floating rate bonds and treasury bills. These
are bonds represent exposure primarily to the Czech government,
reputable banks, occasionally to corporations with investment
grade rating. In order to reduce interest rate risk, bonds are usually
held until maturity. The manager also invests in banking deposits.
The fund does not invest in equities.
Fund invests in government bonds, bonds of banks and other issuers who have the long-term credit rating from the Standard
& Poor´s or Fitch Ratings at least on the investment grade. Time to
maturity may be up to 15 years.
Incoming weak data from European economies pressed government bond yields to new all-time lows. In May, the German
economy started to show a better outlook in terms of its economic
development. Thanks to that, a turn in bond markets came and government bond yields started to grow (a drop in prices). Czech bonds
followed this development. The US central bank (FED) fuelled the
increase in yield far more strongly, as it clarified its steps in terms
of a gradual reduction of monetary stimuli in the economy. But
the increase in yields (drop in prices) was too steep, which is why
yields could not avoid a minor correction in July. Subsequently,
during the rest of the summer vacation, the macro-figures published in Europe started to push bond yields up again. This growth
was halted in September, when the US central bank surprisingly
failed to reduce the volume of bonds purchased, creating pressure
on revenue drop. This was fuelled by protracted debates about the
US budget. After a year of threats, the Czech National Bank resorted to FX interventions in November, primarily due to low inflation.
This resulted in a sudden weakening of the crown against the euro
by 5%, to a level around CZK 27. This step was manifest primarily
by a drop in revenue on the short end. In December, however, bond
prices grew rapidly, driven primarily by better data from the US
and reduced monetary stimuli of the US central bank.
Commentary of the fund manager
In 2013, the Czech bond market more-or-less followed developments in developed markets. Until mid May, the Czech bond market carried on in the buoyant developments that started the year
before. After that, the trend reversed and bond yields started to
gradually climb up (bond prices were going down).
The fund is invested into Czech government bonds with a shorter
maturity period and it is also holding a smaller position in banking
sector corporate bonds.

Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., CERTIFIKÁTOVÝ FOND – otevřený podílový fond, 2013 Annual Report
CERTIFIKÁTOVÝ FOND
Characteristics
A special securities fund for investors who have some experience
with capital markets. The fund strives to increase the value of unit
certificates over the long term by actively managing the risk components of its portfolio, with an emphasis on the current and expected volatility of individual investment instruments. The recommended investment horizont is at least 4 years or more. The risk
weighting of the fund is 4 on a scale of 1 to 7 (synthetic indicator).
Investment strategy
For the Fund’s portfolio, the Fund manager purchases structured
bonds, investment certificates, short- and medium-term bonds and
investment instruments from alternative asset classes. The Fund
can also use equity instrument derivatives (equity indices). Regionally, the Fund’s investments cover primarily developed capital
markets in the US, Europe, and Japan, and to a lesser extent also
developed capital markets. The objective is reached primarily by
active management of the risk components of the portfolio. When
deciding about the composition of the unit trust’s portfolio and the
selection of individual investments, attention is paid to the current
volatility level of individual investment instruments and to the expected volatility level of the prices of derivatives.
Commentary of the fund manager
All of 2013 carried on in the spirit of a growth trend on developed
stock markets. That meant that for many stock indices, this was
one of the most successful years in recent history. For example, the
US stock index S&P 500 grew by nearly 30% in 2013, the most
since 1997. The growth of equity markets was due primarily to
good figures coming in from the US, European, and Chinese economies. Also corporate data from the US played their role, as their
profitability grew faster in comparison with the first half.
That is why the possibilities of increasing positions in the fund
were only very limited. Events increasing volatility on financial
markets were extremely isolated. At the end of February, it was
uncertainty as to the elections in Italy and then in April a sharp drop
of the Japanese stock market. The situation started to change at the
end of May, and primarily in June. The US central bank changed
the outlines of the gradual reduction of monetary stimuli of the
economy, accompanied by problems on the Chinese inter-bank
market. Some investors started to fear a potential outbreak of a financial crisis in the Chinese banking sector. The sharp growth in
volatility (accompanied by a drop in financial markets) allowed us
to make use of investment opportunities. We realised them primarily through bonus certificates for the US S&P 500 index.
In August, markets corrected their growth to some degree in response to increasing tension in Syria. This was accompanied by
another sharp increase in volatility that allowed us to take advantage of investment opportunities, including through a bonus
certificate for the US S&P 500 index. An investment opportunity
occurred in September as volatility increased in connection with
the unexpected decision of the US central bank to postpone the
gradual discontinuation of economic stimuli. We took advantage
of that opportunity through a bonus certificate for the European
Euro Stoxx50 index.
In the meantime, we placed some of our disposable cash into
Czech government bonds maturing in 3 years, and in 4 years with
a variable coupon, and also into German government bonds with
a maturity of 1.5 years. We are attempting to thereby avoid the
adverse impact of the potential growth in interest rates.
At the end of 2013, 8% of the fund’s portfolio had been invested
into investment certificates and 57% into Czech and German government bonds.

The SRRI (a numerical scale of 1 to 7) is based on the volatility of the fund’s unit certificate value in the past. Therefore assigning to the
appropriate category of the SRRI is not an indicator of the future development. The assigning to the appropriate category of the SRRI can
be revised from time to time. Neither the assigning of the fund into the lowest category of the SRRI means the investment without a risk.
ISCS computes the SRRI of the fund on an ongoing basis according to the unified European methodology3.

Independent Auditor’s Report
To the Shareholder of Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s.:
I. We have audited the financial statements of Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s. (“the Company”) as at 31 December 2013 presented in the annual report of the Company on pages 77–93 and our audit report dated 4 February 2014 stated the following:
“We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s. which comprise the balance sheet
as at 31 December 2013, and the income statement, statement of changes in equity for the year then ended, and a summary of significant
accounting policies and other explanatory information. For details of Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s. see Note 1 to the financial
statements.
Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the Czech Republic, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of
financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the
Act on Auditors and International Standards on Auditing as amended by implementation guidance of the Chamber of Auditors of the Czech
Republic. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance
whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including an assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements,
whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation
and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the
purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness
of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Investiční společnost České
spořitelny, a. s. as at 31 December 2013, and its financial performance for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the Czech Republic.”
II. We have also audited the consistency of the annual report with the financial statements described above. The management of Investiční
společnost České spořitelny, a. s. is responsible for the accuracy of the annual report. Our responsibility is to express, based on our audit, an
opinion on the consistency of the annual report with the financial statements.
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing and the related implementation guidance issued by the
Chamber of Auditors of the Czech Republic. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance as
to whether the information presented in the annual report that describes the facts reflected in the financial statements is consistent, in all
material respects, with the financial statements. We have checked that the accounting information presented in the annual report on pages
1–73 is consistent with that contained in the audited financial statements as at 31 December 2013. Our work as auditors was confined to
checking the annual report with the aforementioned scope and did not include a review of any information other than that drawn from the
audited accounting records of the Company. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Based on our audit, the accounting information presented in the annual report is consistent, in all material respects, with the financial statements described above.

III. In addition, we have reviewed the accuracy of the information contained in the report on related parties of Investiční společnost
České spořitelny, a. s. for the year ended 31 December 2013 presented in the annual report of the Company on pages 70–72. As described
in the report on related parties, the Company prepared this report in accordance with Act on Commercial Corporations, effective from
1 January 2014.
The management of Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s. is responsible for the preparation and accuracy of the report on related parties. Our responsibility is to issue a report based on our review.
We conducted our review in accordance with the applicable International Standard on Review Engagements and the related Czech standard
No. 56 issued by the Chamber of Auditors of the Czech Republic. Those standards require that we plan and perform the review to obtain
moderate assurance as to whether the report on related parties is free from material misstatement. The review is limited primarily to enquiries of company personnel, to analytical procedures applied to financial data and to examining, on a test basis, the accuracy of information,
and thus provides less assurance than an audit. We have not performed an audit and, accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the report on related parties of Investiční společnost
České spořitelny, a. s. for the year ended 31 December 2013 is materially misstated.

The financial statements are based on the accrual principle, that is,
transactions and other events are recognised in the accounting period in which they occur, regardless of when the related monetary
flow arises. The financial statements are presented in compliance
with the prudence concept and the going concern assumption.
17 December 2012 the Czech National bank granted to the investment company permission for creation of the new special
securities fund, Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s.,
CERTIFIKÁTOVÝ FOND – otevřený podílový fond (resolution
2012/12370/570). The resolution became effective on 17 December 2012. First participation certificates were issued on 15 January
2013.
The presentation of the financial statements requires that ISČS
make estimates which have an impact on the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities and contingent assets and liabilities as at the
date of the financial statements as well as expenses and income in
the relevant accounting period. These estimates are based on information available as at the date of the financial statements and may
differ from the actual results.
Principal Business
The financial statements contain the balance sheet, profit and loss
account, statement of changes in equity, and notes to the financial
statements.
The principal business activities of the Company are as follows:
– Collective investment involving the formation and management of mutual funds;
– Management of investment funds on the basis of a management contract;
– Management of assets in the mutual fund or other investment
company or the assets of the investment fund which did not
enter into the management contract;
– Activities relating to collective investments such as services
for other investment companies or an investment fund which
did not enter into the management contract;
ISČS operates solely on the Czech market, and all revenues are
generated in the Czech Republic. The authorisation for the activities of an investment company was granted by the Czech National
Bank on 26 April 2006, ref. no. 41/N/134/2005/5. The resolution
took legal effect on 18 May 2006. This authorisation replaces
a permission granted by the Czech Finance Ministry and approved
by the Securities Commission through its resolution dated 26 April
1999, ref no. 111/2648/R/1999; this resolution took legal effect on
4 May 1999. The original resolution of the Czech Ministry of Finance dated 19 April 1993, ref. no. 101/21 693/93, took effect on
10 May 1993.
2. Basis of Preparation
The financial statements have been prepared on the basis of underlying accounting records maintained in accordance with Accounting Act 563/1991 Coll., and applicable regulations and decrees
in compliance with and in the scope defined in Czech Finance
Ministry Regulation No. 501/2002, as amended. This sets out the
overall framework for the presentation of the financial statements,
and guidelines for the structure and minimum requirements for the
content of the financial statements of banks and certain financial
institutions, and Czech Accounting Standards for Financial Institutions.
All amounts are stated in Czech Crowns (CZK). Thousands of
CZK are the measurement unit, unless stated otherwise.
The financial statements, including notes, are unconsolidated.
Explanation Added for Translation into English
These financial statements are presented on the basis of accounting
principles and standards generally accepted in the Czech Republic.
82
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., 2013 Annual Report
Certain accounting practices applied by the Company that conform with generally accepted accounting principles and standards
in the Czech Republic may not conform with generally accepted
accounting principles in other countries.
3. Accounting Policies
3.1 Transaction Recognition Date
ISČS recognises the sales or purchases of securities using settlement date accounting. Transactions with securities outstanding at
the end of the month are accounted for in the off-balance sheet accounts from their trade date to their settlement date and are thereafter revaluated at fair value through the balance sheet.
The transaction recognition date can also be the date when money
in circulation is paid or received, the date when foreign currency
is purchased or sold, the date when a payment is made, the date
when ownership right is acquired or terminated, when a receivable
or payable arises, changes or ceases to exist, when assets move
within an accounting entity, and the date when other matters to be
included in the accounting records occur, or when the documents
supporting these other matters are available, or when other matters
are a consequence of internal conditions of the accounting entity
and/or special regulations.
3.2 Valuation of Assets and Liabilities
3.2.1 Tangible and Intangible Assets
Tangible fixed assets include identifiable assets with physical substance which have an estimated useful life greater than one year
and an acquisition cost greater than CZK 40 thousand.
Intangible fixed assets include identifiable assets with physical
substance which have an estimated useful life greater than one year
and an acquisition cost greater than CZK 60 thousand.
Tangible and intangible fixed assets are stated at an acquisition
cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated amortisation,
respectively, expressing the degree of the assets’ wear and tear.
Land and works of art, irrespective of their valuation, and assets
under construction are not depreciated.

depreciation/amortisation plan.

4-12 years
3.2.2 Securities
Upon acquisition, in accordance with ISČS’s strategy, all securities
are included in the portfolio of securities measured at fair value
through profit or loss.
Securities are measured at cost upon acquisition. The cost includes
direct transaction costs related to the acquisition of securities.
ISČS re-measures securities at fair value as at the last day of each
month and as at the date the sale is realised.
Capital gains or losses are recorded in the profit and loss account
through the ‘Profit or loss from financial operations’.
The fair value of securities is determined with reference to the
market value applicable as at the date of the fair value measurement, if the securities can be sold for that price.
3.2.3 Provisions
Provisions are made against assets and other assets which are not
re-measured at fair value or are not valued under the equity method
in cases where temporary asset impairment is identified.
Provisions are subject to year-end review procedures when their
level and appropriateness are assessed.
As at 31 December 2013 and 2012, ISČS did not make any provisions.
3.2.4 Equity
The provisions are recorded against assets whenever temporary asset impairment is identified. If the impairment is permanent, the
assets are written off.
The basic capital of the Company is stated at the amount recorded
in the Commercial Register maintained in the Municipal Court.
Any increase or decrease in the basic capital made pursuant to
the decision of the General Meeting which was not entered in the
Commercial Register as at the financial statements date is recorded
through changes in basic capital. Contributions in excess of basic
capital are recorded as share premium. Other capital funds consist
of monetary and non-monetary contributions in excess of basic
capital, tangible assets donations, etc.
Tangible and intangible fixed assets are depreciated/amortised for
accounting purposes in the month following the month the assets
are put into use. The assets are depreciated/amortised on a straight
In accordance with the Commercial Code, the Company creates
a legal reserve fund from profit or from amounts contributed by
partners above their contributions.
Tangible assets with an acquisition price below CZK 40 thousand
and intangible assets with a price below CZK 60 thousand are
charged to expenses in the period in which they were acquired.
83
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., 2013 Annual Report
In the first year in which profit is generated, a joint-stock company should allocate 20% of profit after tax (however, not more
than 10% of basic capital) to the legal reserve fund. In subsequent
years, the legal reserve fund is allocated 5% of profit after tax until
the fund reaches 20% of basic capital. These funds can only be
used to offset losses.
In accordance with its Articles of Association, the Company creates social fund.
3.2.5 Reserves
Reserves are liabilities of uncertain timing or amount. A reserve
is recognised when the Company has a present obligation (legal
or constructive) as a result of a past event, it is probable (i.e. more
likely than not) that an outflow of resources embodying economic
benefits will be required to settle the obligation and a reasonably
reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. Reserves are used exclusively for the purposes they were created for.
Reserve balances are reviewed annually, and the reserves are reversed or carried forward based on the review results.
3.2.6 Income Tax
The income tax base is calculated from the current year’s profit
or loss by adding all tax non-deductible expenses and subtracting
non-taxable income and items adjusting the tax base. The current
income tax liability is calculated at the end the tax period in compliance with Income Taxes Act No. 586/1992 Coll., as amended.
The tax rate for 2013 is 19 percent (2012: 19 percent).
The deferred tax liability (asset) is determined from all temporary
differences between the reported carrying amount of assets and liabilities and their value for tax purposes. Deferred tax is calculated
using the balance sheet liability method. The balance sheet liability
method focuses on all temporary differences between the tax base
of an asset or liability and its carrying amount in the balance sheet.
The amount of a deferred tax asset or liability is calculated as equal
to the resulting difference multiplied by the income tax rate set
out in Income Taxes Act No. 586/1992 Coll. that is expected to
apply in the period when the tax liability is settled or the tax asset
realised.
are translated at the Czech National Bank’s exchange rate prevailing as at that date.
3.2.8 Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements requires management to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts
of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company management prepared these estimates
and predictions based on all available relevant information. These
estimates and assumptions are based on information available as
at the date of the financial statements and may differ from actual
results.
3.3 Income and Expenses Recognition Policies
3.3.1 Interest Income
Interest income from current and term accounts placed with banks
is, based on a bank statement, posted to income against the appropriate balance sheet account. At the balance sheet date, the prorated amount of interest from term deposits is recognised using the
accrual principle, i.e. in the period to which it relates irrespective
of the time of its receipt. Accrued interest income related to the
assets is accounted for together with these assets on the face of the
balance sheet.
3.3.2 Interest Expenses
Interest expenses from loans are, based on a bank statement, posted to expenses against the appropriate balance sheet account. At
the balance sheet date, the pro-rated amount of interest from loans
is recognised using the accrual principle, i.e. in the period to which
it relates irrespective of the time of its payment. Accrued interest
expenses related to the liabilities are accounted for together with
these liabilities on the face of the balance sheet.
3.3.3 Fees and Commissions
Fees and commissions are accrued and posted to the income statement, except for the commission paid upon the acquisition of securities where the commission is part of the cost of the security.
3.3.4 Subsequent Events
Deferred tax liabilities are always recognised while deferred tax
assets are recognised only up to the amount of probable future taxable income against which the deferred tax asset can be offset. If
the deferred tax asset is not likely to be realised, it is appropriately
written down.
The impact of events that occurred between the balance sheet date
and the date of the financial statements preparation is recognized in
the financial statements provided these events provide additional
evidence about conditions that existed at the date of the balance
sheet.
3.2.7 Foreign Currency Translations
If material events reflecting the facts occurring after the balance
sheet date happened between the balance sheet date and the date
of the financial statements preparation the consequences of these
events are disclosed in the notes to the financial statements but not
recognized in the financial statements.
ISČS translates foreign currencies using the foreign exchange
rate promulgated by the Czech National Bank as at the relevant
date. Exchange rate gains and losses are recorded as income or expenses, as appropriate, which are reported in the income statement
through the ‘Net profit or loss from financial operations’. At the
date of the financial statements, the relevant assets and liabilities

4. Used Financial Instruments
4.1 Risk Management
ISČS monitors the market risks associated with its portfolio on an
ongoing basis. ISČS follows its policies of management of own
assets. The purpose of investment is always either achieving additional gains on excess liquidity or support of investment products of ISČS. The portfolio primarily comprises participation certificates of open-ended mutual funds managed by ISČS for which
a sound risk monitoring, measuring and assessment framework
was established together with an appropriate set of tools, which
provides for both the mediated management of the risk attached to
ISČS’s securities portfolio via the funds’ risk management and the
monitoring of an overall risk via Value at Risk (VAR). ISČS also
regularly assesses volume of equity compared to the undertaken
risks and it monitors its adequacy.
In managing the risk exposure of funds, ISČS employs a wide
range of tools for measuring, managing and, mainly, eliminating
the risk exposure of the particular portfolios with significant attention being paid to market risks, operational risks, concentration
risks and counterparty risk (credit risks).
Risk management also includes managing the funds’ performance
that is, measuring the performance of funds, comparing it against
the competition as well as the benchmark in particular cases where
applicable for the fund.
In addition to statutory restrictions, the funds are subject to a set
of internal limits which have a direct impact on the allocation of
investment products on the particular markets by their risk profiles,
the maximum FX exposure, the modified duration zone within
which the individual funds fall, rating structure of portfolios, etc.
The relevant limits are applied to the individual funds to correspond with the funds’ nature.
The VaR of all funds is assessed on daily basis, broken down to FX
VaR, Interest Rate VaR and Equity VaR and to the global VaR of
the fund’s assets. The above values serve as a basis for the identification of critical risk areas/segments. This identification has an
impact on the re-investment process. Limits are also set for VaR of
the individual funds, either as compared to the risk of the benchmark (relative limit) or as a maximum value of the VaR (absolute
limit).
To assess the impact of extremely unfavourable market conditions,
a maximum loss resulting from stress situations is estimated for
each fund. These situations particularly include critical developments in interest rates, equity markets and foreign exchange rates.
Stress testing is performed based on stress scenarios taking into
account the risk characteristics of individual funds. Major attention
is paid to those risk factors that the Company is most vulnerable to.
Adherence to the above-mentioned limits is reviewed on an ongoing basis together with the effectiveness of the setting of the limits.
The limits are adjusted as needed.

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., SPOROINVEST – otevřený podílový fond, which comprise the balance sheet as at 31 December 2013, and the income statement and statement of changes in equity for the
year then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information. For details of Investiční společnost
České spořitelny, a. s., SPOROINVEST – otevřený podílový fond, see Note 1 to the financial statements.
Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management of Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the Czech Republic, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the
Act on Auditors and International Standards on Auditing as amended by implementation guidance of the Chamber of Auditors of the Czech
Republic. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance
whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including an assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements,
whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation
and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the
purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness
of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Investiční společnost České
spořitelny, a. s., SPOROINVEST – otevřený podílový fond, as at 31 December 2013, and its financial performance for the year then ended
in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the Czech Republic.

Notes to the Financial Statements
for the year ended 31 December 2013
1. Organisation and Description
of Business
With the Czech National Bank resolution becoming effective on
12 August 2009, the merging fund ceased to exist on 12 November
2009 (the merger date).
Formation and Description of the Business
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., SPOROINVEST –
otevřený podílový fond (hereinafter the “Fund” or “IS ČS, a. s. –
SPOROINVEST OPF”) is an accounting unit without legal entity status, formed by Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s.
(hereinafter the “Company”) as an open-ended mutual fund under
the Investment Companies and Funds Act No. 248/1992 Coll.,
based upon the Resolution of the Ministry of Finance of the Czech
Republic dated 17 May 1996. The Fund commenced its activities
on 1 July 1996.
On 23 July 2003, following the Company’s request, the Securities Commission resolved to merge the Fund with the open-ended
mutual fund Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., Merkur –
otevřený podílový fond, under Section 35f (3) of Act No. 248/1992
Coll. Under Section 35f (10) of Act No. 248/1992 Coll., the merger
is effective three months after the date when the Commission resolution takes legal effect. With the Commission resolution becoming effective on 11 August 2003, the merger date was 12 November 2003.
Pursuant to a concluded contract, Česká spořitelna, a. s. acts as the
depository of the Fund.
The Fund is managed by the Company. In compliance with the
Collective Investment Act No. 189/2004 Coll. (hereinafter the
“Act”), the Company is responsible for the management of the assets of the Fund, which involves the administration and handling
of the assets.
The Fund is a standard fund in compliance with the Act and meets
the requirements of EU legislation.
According to the classification binding for the members of the
Capital Market Association (hereinafter the “AKAT CR”) and Asset Management of the Czech Republic as at the date of the approval of this Statute, the Fund can be defined as a money market
fund.
On 12 August 2009, following the Company’s request, the Czech
National Bank resolved to merge the Fund with the open-ended mutual fund Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s. –
OPATRNÝ MIX FF – otevřený podílový fond, under Section 101
(2) of the Act. The Fund is a continuing fund and the Statute of the
continuing Fund remains unchanged.

Principal Business
The Company collects funds from individuals and legal entities for
the Fund by issuing participation certificates with the purpose of
their collective investment on local and foreign financial markets.
No restrictions are placed on the number of participation certificates for issue and the period for which the Fund is established.
The Company reserves the right to temporary halt the issuing of
participation certificates for no longer than three months in compliance with the Act.
The participation certificates of the Fund are available both in the
Czech Republic and in other EU member countries.
Investment Policy of the Fund
The objective of the investment policy is to provide participation
certificates holders with a long-term appreciation of participation
certificates on condition that the overall risk profile of the Fund
minimises the likelihood of losses within six months. The aim is
achieved by investing in a widely diversified portfolio of securities
with fixed or variable interest income and active management of
interest rate risk. The average modified duration of the portfolio is
limited to the period of one year. The Fund invests also in securities denominated in foreign currencies.
The portfolio of the Fund predominantly includes bonds with
a variable coupon, denominated in CZK, that are mostly purchased
with the intent to hold them to their maturity. The Fund also invests in bonds with a fixed coupon, treasury bills, bank deposits
and bonds with an embedded derivative.
Finances collected in the Fund can also be invested in securities
of collective investment funds if such collective investment funds
distribute the risk connected to investments and meet other obligations as set by the Act.
The Company can use financial derivatives to effectively manage
the Fund’s assets. Efficient asset management represents transactions for the purpose of decreasing risk, decreasing costs or achieving sufficient income for the Fund provided that the risk is demonstrably low. The exposure from these transactions must be fully
covered by the Fund’s assets so that liabilities arising from these
99
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., SPOROINVEST – otevřený podílový fond, 2013 Annual Report
transactions are fulfilled. The Fund uses financial derivatives to
hedge against currency and interest rate exposures.
The limits of the Fund are adhered to on the basis of the Act, or
they are regulated in the Fund’s Statute in compliance with the Act.
Change in the Fund’s Statute
The mutual fund statute was put into accordance with the amendment to Act 189/2004 Coll., on collective investment (as ensuing
from the changes made by Act 188/2011 Coll.), and Decree No.
193/2011 Coll., on the minimum requisites of the statute and on
the conditions for the use of the name Short-Term Money Market
Fund and Money Market Fund at the end of 2011. For this reason
no changes to the statute were made in 2012.
On 5 June 2012 only updated information was as to the list of
funds managed by the Company (Article II Paragraph 8 of the statute), information on the managing parties of the asset management
company (Appendix 1 to the statute), information added on the
performance of the mutual fund for 2011 (Appendix 2 to the statute), information updated on the total cost indicators for 2011, and
the date on which the statute being signed was updated.
On the date the statute was updated (5 June 2012) the key information for investors was also updated.
As at 1 February 2013, information on Fund`s 2012 performance
was published within the document Key investors information.
(According to the article 23, section 3 of Council Regulation (EC)
no. 583/2010, the performance must be updated within the Key investors information up to 35 days after the previous calendar year
end.)
The updated text of the Funds statute was approved by the Investment company`s board of directors as at 10 April 2013. The
changes in the statute text related to an update of the list of managed funds, update of the information on the length of professional
experience of Investment company management, addition of information on Fund’s performance and the Fund`s benchmark`s
performance, an update of information on total expense ratio for
2012 and update of the date of the signature. These updates were
not subject to preliminary approval from Czech national bank (according to the section 84 (a), subsection 5 of 189/2004 Coll., On
collective investment schemes). The shareholders could access the
updated text of the Statute and Key investors information as of
10 April 2013 on http://www.iscs.cz/, at the distributor’s branches
(Ceska sporitelna, a. s.) and at the Investment company seat.
Management Policy
The profit/(loss) is based on the difference between income and
expenses related to the management of the Fund’s assets.
a loss from the Company’s management of assets, the loss is covered from the reinvestment fund which was created from earnings
brought forward. If the reinvestment fund is not sufficient, the loss
must be covered by a reduction in the Fund’s capital fund.
The Fund’s assets must not be used for the provision of loans, borrowings or gifts, to secure a third party’s obligation or to settle
a payable which is not related to the Fund’s management. This
provision does not affect Sections 26 and 27 of the Collective Investment Act.
When managing the Fund’s assets, contracts for the sale of securities and money market instruments, securities issued by other collective investment funds and financial derivatives which are not
owned by the Fund at the moment of concluding the respective
contracts, may not be entered into.
The Company can accept loans and borrowings for the maximum
of six months when managing the Fund’s assets, to cover temporary needs related to the management of the Fund’s assets or
purchases of participation certificates. The volume of the received
loans and borrowings must not exceed 10 percent of the value of
the Fund’s assets.
Legislative change
Act No 240/2013 Coll., On Management Companies and Investment Funds became effective as of 19 August 2013. Rules stated
by this act must be implemented by investment companies and investment funds by 22 July 2014. In 2013, the Fund`s management
was subject to the rules of the Act No. 189/2004 Coll., On collective investment schemes. The new rules will be applied as of 2014.
2. Basis of Preparation
The financial statements have been prepared on the basis of underlying accounting records maintained in accordance with Accounting Act No. 563/1991 Coll., and applicable regulations, decrees and internal standards in compliance with and in the scope
defined in Czech Finance Ministry Regulation No. 501/2002 of
6 November 2002, as subsequently amended, which sets out the
overall framework for the presentation of the financial statements,
and guidelines for the structure and minimum requirements for the
content of the financial statements of banks and certain financial
institutions, and Czech Accounting Standards for Financial Institutions, which establish the accounting principles and policies.
The basis of preparation and the accounting policies have been
consistently applied during both 2013 and 2012.
The Fund is obliged to comply with the regulatory requirements
of the Act.
The generated profit has been fully retained by the Fund, in the reinvestment fund, as a source for further investments, and increases
the participation certificate value. In the event that the Fund incurs
100
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., SPOROINVEST – otevřený podílový fond, 2013 Annual Report
The financial statements are presented in compliance with general
accounting principles, specifically the accrual principle, the prudence concept and the going concern assumption.
The financial statements contain the balance sheet, profit and loss
account, statement of changes in equity, and notes to the financial
statements.
arises, changes or ceases to exist, when assets move within an accounting entity, and the date when other matters to be included
in the accounting records occur, or when the documents supporting these other matters are available, or when other matters are
a consequence of internal conditions of the accounting entity and/
or special regulations.
Securities
The presentation of the financial statements requires that the
Company makes estimates which have an impact on the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities as at the date of the financial statements as well as expenses and income in the relevant accounting
period. These estimates are based on information available as at
the date of the financial statements and may differ from the actual
results.
As a result of continued market volatility since the start of the
global financial crisis, the Fund may be exposed to increased risk,
specifically due to the uncertainty regarding possible asset impairments and future developments on the market. The financial
statements have been prepared based on the current best estimates
using all relevant and available information as at the date of the
financial statements.
These financial statements are unconsolidated.
All amounts are stated in thousands of Czech crowns (CZK), unless indicated otherwise.
Explanation Added for Translation into English
These financial statements are presented on the basis of accounting
principles and standards generally accepted in the Czech Republic.
Certain accounting practices applied by the Company that conform with generally accepted accounting principles and standards
in the Czech Republic may not conform with generally accepted
accounting principles in other countries.
3. Accounting Policies
In accordance with the Fund’s strategy, all securities are classified
as ‘securities at fair value through profit or loss. During the accounting period, securities are re-measured at fair value on a daily
basis pursuant to the Finance Ministry Regulation No. 194/2011
Coll., on more detailed regulation of certain rules in collective investment (the “Decree”), as amended.
The securities of the Fund are accounted for as securities at fair
value through profit or loss. The fair value of the securities is determined in accordance with the International Financial Reporting
Standards with an exception, that an average price between the
most favourable binding offer and demand (MID price) is used
for bonds.
Pursuant to the Regulation, securities are valued at the price quoted
on a public market which is adjusted, as appropriate, to reflect the
rules set out in the Regulation. If the market value is unavailable,
the Fund uses a value determined by the Company using valuation models based on discounted future cash flows according to
the yield curve calculated using the Reuters and Kondor+ systems.
Securities are measured at cost upon initial recognition using the
weighted average method. The acquisition cost includes direct
transaction costs related to the acquisition of securities.
Realised capital gains or losses are recorded in the profit and loss
account within ‘Profit or loss from financial operations’.
Accrued interest relating to assets is included within the total balance of these assets.
Receivables and Payables
Transaction Recognition Date
Purchases and sales of securities are recognised using trade date
accounting provided that the period between the trade date and the
fulfilment of the commitment arising from the contract does not
exceed a period typical for the relevant type of transaction.
The transaction recognition date for derivative contracts is:
a) the date upon which the related contract was entered into;
b) the date when fulfilment was delivered based on the relevant
contract.
The transaction recognition date can also be the date when money
in circulation is paid or received, the date when foreign currency is
purchased or sold, the date when a payment is made, the date when
ownership is acquired or terminated, when a receivable or payable
The Fund records receivables arising from its transactions with
securities and other operating receivables at their nominal value,
while receivables from positive fair values of derivatives are recorded at the fair value of the derivatives at the balance sheet date.
Pursuant to the prudence principle, provisions are created based on
the aging of receivables.
The Fund records payables arising from its transactions with securities and operating payables at their nominal value, while payables from negative fair values of derivatives are recorded at the fair
value of the derivatives at the balance sheet date.
Financial Derivatives and Hedging Transactions
In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into hedging
contracts with financial derivatives to hedge against interest rate
101
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., SPOROINVEST – otevřený podílový fond, 2013 Annual Report
and foreign currency exposures associated with its transactions on
financial markets. The method of fair value hedges is applied to
hedging derivatives.
The Fund designates certain derivatives as hedges provided that
the following criteria are met:
– the Fund has developed a risk management strategy;
– at the inception of the hedge, the hedging relationship is formally documented, the documentation identifies the hedged
item and the hedging instrument, and it defines the risk that
is being hedged and the approach to establishing whether the
hedge is effective; and
– the hedge is effective, that is, changes in the fair value or cash
flows of the hedged item are almost fully offset by changes in
the fair value or cash flows of the hedging instrument and the
results are within a range of 80 percent to 125 percent.
Foreign Currency Translations
Foreign currencies are translated using the exchange rate promulgated by the Czech National Bank as at the relevant date. As at the
balance sheet date, assets and liabilities denominated in foreign
currencies are translated on the same basis.
Foreign exchange rate gains and losses from the daily translation
of assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are posted to expense
or income accounts.
Capital Funds
The selling price of participation certificates is calculated as a proportion of the Fund’s net assets and the relevant number of participation certificates. Participation certificates are sold to investors
using the selling price determined on a daily basis.
Share Premium
Nominal values of derivative financial instruments are recognised
in the off-balance sheet accounts. Changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as hedges (see above) are
recorded as income or expense. Changes in the fair value of the
hedging derivatives attributable to the risk hedged are recognised
in the same income or expense accounts as differences from revaluation of a hedged instrument.
All financial derivatives are recorded as assets when the fair value
is positive and as liabilities when the fair value is negative. Fair
values are derived from valuation models.
Derivatives that are not designated as hedging derivatives are
treated as trading derivatives. These derivatives are measured at
fair value on a daily basis and gains and losses on revaluation are
posted to derivative expense and income accounts.
Certain derivatives are embedded in compound financial instruments, which comprise the host instrument and the derivative. Pursuant to the applicable regulations, the Fund recognises changes in
assets and liabilities arising from the movements in rates or prices
of securities or changes in exchange rates through expense and income accounts. Given that the assets of the Fund are valued at fair
value and changes of fair values are reported within expenses and
income from derivatives, embedded derivatives are not accounted
for separately.
Income Tax
Under effective tax regulations, the income tax rate applicable to
mutual funds is 5 percent.
Deferred Tax
Deferred tax is provided using the liability method on all temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities reported in the balance sheet and their value for tax purposes.
Deferred tax assets are recognised only up to the amount of probable future taxable income against which the deferred tax asset can
be offset.
Share premium is the difference between the nominal value of all
participation certificates and their carrying amounts as at the date
of their issue or purchase.
Interest Income and Expense and Dividend
Income
Interest income and expense are recognised using the accrual principle. Interest income and expense also include gains or losses
from hedging interest rate derivatives.
Dividend income is recognised as at the date when the right to
receive the payment is established (ex-dividend date). Dividend income from domestic securities is presented after withholding tax.
Dividend income from foreign securities is presented gross with
the applicable taxes presented within taxes on foreign dividends
(see note 5.18).
Subsequent Events
The impact of events that occurred between the balance sheet date
and the date of the financial statements preparation is recognized in
the financial statements provided these events provide additional
evidence about conditions that existed at the date of the balance
sheet.
If material events reflecting the facts occurring after the balance
sheet date happened between the balance sheet date and the date
of the financial statements preparation the consequences of these
events are disclosed in the notes to the financial statements but not
recognized in the financial statements.
4. Risk Management
Credit Risk
In accordance with the Statute and the investment strategy, the
Company establishes rules and policies for selecting investment
instruments such that the overall credit risk profile of allocated investments is consistent with the characteristics of the Fund. New
102
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., SPOROINVEST – otevřený podílový fond, 2013 Annual Report
types of instruments are approved on a case by case basis by the
risk management function together with the specification of limits
for positions pertaining to these instruments. Specific emphasis is
placed on an appropriate rating structure and a relatively detailed
diversification of portfolios (especially in relation to interest bearing securities).
Market Risk
The Fund uses a wide range of tools to eliminate risk exposures
attached to its portfolios. Significant attention is paid to market
risks. Apart from statutory restrictions, the Fund is subject to a set
of internal limits having a direct impact on the FX exposure, interest rate exposure (the modified duration range of the Fund), equity
allocation on individual markets according to their volatility, portfolio rating structure (see above), and other characteristics of the
Fund. The relevant limits are appropriately applied to correspond
with the type of the Fund.
Whenever the Fund purchases new types of instruments, these instruments are first analysed to assess the potential credit risk, as
well as the market risk that the instruments might bring to or help
eliminate from the portfolio. Subsequently, their appropriateness
and, if appropriate, the acceptable proportion of these instruments
in the portfolio is evaluated.
The level of the Fund’s market risk exposure is measured using
the Value at Risk (“VaR”). With effect from 1 August 2006, the
VaR for the Company’s Funds is calculated by the Central Risk
Management Department of Česká spořitelna using the historical
simulation method in the K + KvaR system.
Set out below are relative monthly values of the VaR in percentage
terms for individual types of risks:

The average VaR is calculated as an average of daily VaR values
in years 2013 and 2012 respectively.
The Fund monitors Value at Risk globally and also broken down to
Foreign Currency VaR, Interest Rate VaR and Equity VaR. Based
on the above values, the Fund identifies critical risk segments. This
identification influences the reinvestment process. The limits set
the maximum acceptable VaR for the Fund.
The Equity VaR also reflects the risk related to the holding of mutual funds’ participation certificates (including funds of money
market and bond funds).
Adherence to all the above limits and their effectiveness is monitored and assessed on an ongoing basis. The limits are reviewed,
if necessary.
The portfolio’s risk of unfavourable development of foreign exchange rates, interest rates, and other market factors is hedged, to
an appropriate extent, by financial derivatives. Financial derivatives are traded on the OTC market as this market enables the trading of contracts whose parameters and nature appropriately satisfy
the requirements of a hedge. Portfolios primarily include currency
swaps, currency forwards and interest rate swaps.
Liquidity Risk
Another monitored risk is the liquidity risk. Liquidity risk is a risk
that the Fund will not have enough available resources to meet its
obligations arising from financial contracts. Liquidity is monitored
and managed based on expected cash flows, with appropriate adjustments made to the structure of securities and term placements
portfolios.
Pursuant to the Act, the Company is obliged to repurchase a participation certificate without undue delay but not later than 15 business days from the date when the repurchase right is claimed. Given that the Fund holds securities traded on foreign stock exchanges
which can be realised within a few days, the Fund’s inability to
meet its obligations due to lack of liquidity is unlikely.
Pursuant to Section 12 of the Collective Investment Act, the Company can suspend issues and purchases of the Fund’s participation
certificates for a maximum of three months, if necessary due to the
protection of rights or the participation certificate holders’ interests
protected by law. Issuing and purchasing participation certificates
can be suspended particularly at the end or beginning of the calendar year, in the event of natural disasters, upon very strong fluctuations on financial markets and upon high requirements for the
sales or purchases of participation certificates provided they could
endanger the Fund’s assets.
The quantitative information about the residual maturity of assets
and liabilities is given in Note 5.20.

5.5 Equity
The Fund has no share capital. The nominal value of one participation certificate is CZK 1. The total nominal value of all participation
certificates is posted to ‘Capital funds’.
Share premium arising from the difference between the nominal and selling values of the participation certificates is recorded separately.
The Fund accounts for share premium upon the sale of participation certificates as well as upon their repurchase. The selling price of the
participation certificate is determined as the share of the Fund’s net assets and the number of issued participation certificates.
The value of a participation certificate as at the last trading date in 2013 totalled CZK 1.8749 (2012: CZK 1.8696). This is the most recent
announced value of the participation certificate for the year, for which purchases and repurchases of the participation certificates of the Fund
were undertaken.
In line with the Fund’s Statue, the profit for 2013 of CZK 40,620 thousand will be transferred to the reinvestment fund within ‘Other funds
from profit’.
In line with the Fund’s Statute, the profit for 2012 of CZK 270,296 thousand was transferred to the reinvestment fund within ‘Other funds
from profit’.

Independent Auditor’s Report
to the Participation certificate holders of Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s.,
SPOROBOND – otevřený podílový fond
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., SPOROBOND – otevřený podílový
fond, which comprise the balance sheet as at 31 December 2013, and the income statement and statement of changes in equity for the year
then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information. For details of Investiční společnost České
spořitelny, a. s., SPOROBOND – otevřený podílový fond, see Note 1 to the financial statements.
Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management of Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the Czech Republic, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the
Act on Auditors and International Standards on Auditing as amended by implementation guidance of the Chamber of Auditors of the Czech
Republic. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance
whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including an assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements,
whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation
and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the
purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness
of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Investiční společnost České
spořitelny, a. s., SPOROBOND – otevřený podílový fond, as at 31 December 2013, and its financial performance for the year then ended in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the Czech Republic.

Notes to the Financial Statements
for the year ended 31 December 2013
1. Organisation and Description of
Business
Formation and Description of the Business
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., SPOROBOND –
otevřený podílový fond (hereinafter the “Fund” or “IS ČS, a. s.
– SPOROBOND OPF”) is an accounting unit without legal entity status, formed by Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s.
(hereinafter the “Company”) as an open-ended mutual fund under the Investment Companies and Funds Act No. 248/1992 Coll.,
based upon the Resolution of the Ministry of Finance of the Czech
Republic dated 13 November 1997. The Fund commenced its activities on 31 March 1998.
Pursuant to a concluded contract, Česká spořitelna, a. s. acts as the
depository of the Fund.
Based on the Company’s request dated 16 July 1999, the Securities
Commission resolved, on 21 September 1999, to merge two openended mutual funds, namely Investiční společnost ČS, a. s. – Rentinvest and Investiční společnost ČS, a. s. – SPOROBOND, under
Section 35f (3) of Act No. 248/1992 Coll. The Statute of Investiční
společnost ČS, a. s. – SPOROBOND remains unchanged and follows the wording approved by the Securities Commission. The
merger was performed as at 28 December 1999.
The Fund is managed by the Company. In compliance with the
Collective Investment Act No. 189/2004 Coll. (hereinafter the
“Act”), the Company is responsible for the management of the assets of the Fund, which involves the administration and handling
of the assets.
No restrictions are placed on the number of participation certificates for issue and the period for which the Fund is established.
The Company reserves the right to temporary halt the issuing of
participation certificates for no longer than three months in compliance with the Act.
The participation certificates of the Fund are available both in the
Czech Republic and in other EU member countries.
Investment Policy of the Fund
The objective of the investment policy is to provide participation
certificate holders with a long-term appreciation of participation
certificates on condition that the overall risk profile of the Fund
minimises the likelihood of losses within two years. The aim is
achieved by investing in a widely diversified portfolio of securities
with fixed or variable interest income and active management of
interest rate risk, as well as investing in securities denominated in
foreign currencies.
The portfolio of the Fund predominantly includes state bonds with
fixed coupons denominated in CZK, or state bonds of other countries with developed bond markets. The foreign currency risk is
usually hedged. The Fund also invests in corporate bonds, treasury
bills, bank deposits or bonds with embedded derivatives.
The portfolio of the Fund may also be expanded by purchasing
bonds exchangeable for shares or with the option to subscribe for
shares.
The Fund uses financial derivatives to hedge against currency and
interest rate exposures.
The Fund is a standard fund in compliance with the Act and meets
the requirements of EU legislation.
The limits of the Fund are adhered to on the basis of the Act, or
they are regulated in the Fund’s Statute in compliance with the Act.
According to the classification binding for the members of the
Capital Market Association (hereinafter the “AKAT CR”) as at the
date of the approval of this Statute, the Fund can be defined as
a bond fund.
The Company can use financial derivatives to effectively manage
the Fund’s assets. Efficient asset management represents transactions for the purpose of decreasing risk, decreasing costs or achieving sufficient income for the Fund provided that the risk is demonstrably low. The exposure from these transactions must be fully
covered by the Fund’s assets so that liabilities arising from these
transactions are fulfilled.

Management Policy
Principal Business
The profit/(loss) is based on the difference between income and
expenses related to the management of the Fund’s assets.
The Company collects funds from individuals and legal entities for
the Fund by issuing participation certificates with the purpose of
their collective investment on local and foreign financial markets.
The generated profit has been fully retained by the Fund, in the reinvestment fund, as a source for further investments, and increases
118
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., SPOROBOND – otevřený podílový fond, 2013 Annual Report
the participation certificate value. In the event that the Fund incurs
a loss from the Company’s management of assets, the loss is covered from the reinvestment fund which was created from earnings
brought forward. If the reinvestment fund is not sufficient, the loss
must be covered by a reduction in the Fund’s capital fund.
The Fund’s assets must not be used for the provision of loans, borrowings or gifts, to secure a third party’s obligation or to settle
a payable which is not related to the Fund’s management. This
provision does not affect Sections 26 and 27 of the Collective Investment Act.
When managing the Fund’s assets, contracts for the sale of securities and money market instruments, securities issued by other collective investment funds and financial derivatives which are not
owned by the Fund at the moment of concluding the respective
contracts, may not be entered into.
The Company can accept loans and borrowings for the maximum
of six months when managing the Fund’s assets, to cover temporary needs related to the management of the Fund’s assets or
purchases of participation certificates. The volume of the received
loans and borrowings is not allowed to exceed 10 percent of the
value of the Fund’s assets.
Change in the Statute
Czech National Bank Resolution No. 2012/4694/570, dated 18
May 2012, which came into force on 5 June 2012: The changes to
the Funds statute related mainly to the duty of the asset investment
company to ensure that its statute is in accordance with the amendment to Act 189/2004 Coll., on collective investments (as ensuing
from the changes made by Act 188/2011 Coll.) and Decree No.
193/2011 Coll., on the minimum requisites of the statute and on
the conditions for the use of the name Short-Term Money Market

As at 1 February 2013, information on Fund`s 2012 performance
was published within the document Key investors information.
(According to the article 23, section 3 of Council Regulation (EC)
no. 583/2010, the performance must be updated within the Key investors information up to 35 days after the previous calendar year
end.)
The updated text of the Funds statute was approved by the Investment company`s board of directors as at 10 April 2013. The
changes in the statute text related to an update of the list of managed funds, update of the information on the length of professional
experience of Investment company management, addition of information on Fund’s performance and the Fund`s benchmark`s
performance, an update of information on total expense ratio for
2012 and update of the date of the signature. These updates were
not subject to preliminary approval from Czech national bank (according to the section 84 (a), subsection 5 of 189/2004 Coll. Act
on collective investment.
The shareholders could access the updated text of the Statute and
Key investors information as of 10 April 2013 on http://www.iscs.
cz/, at the distributor’s branches (Ceska sporitelna, a. s.) and at the
Investment company seat.
Legislative change
Act No 240/2013 Coll., Act on Management Companies and Investment Funds became effective as of 19 August 2013. Rules
stated by this act must be implemented by management companies
and investment funds by 22 July 2014. In 2013, the Fund`s management was subject to the rules of the Act No. 189/2004 Coll.,
On collective investment schemes. The new rules will be applied
as of 2014.
2. Basis of Preparation
The financial statements have been prepared on the basis of underlying accounting records maintained in accordance with Accounting Act No. 563/1991 Coll., and applicable regulations, decrees and internal standards in compliance with and in the scope
defined in Czech Finance Ministry Regulation No. 501/2002 of
6 November 2002, as subsequently amended, which sets out the
overall framework for the presentation of the financial statements,
and guidelines for the structure and minimum requirements for the
content of the financial statements of banks and certain financial
institutions, and Czech Accounting Standards for Financial Institutions, which establish the accounting principles and policies.
The basis of preparation and accounting policies has been consistently applied during both 2013 and 2012.
The Fund is obliged to comply with the regulatory requirements
of the Act.
The financial statements are based on the accrual principle, that is,
transactions and other events are recognised in the accounting period in which they occur, regardless of when the related monetary
flow arises. The financial statements are presented in compliance
119
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., SPOROBOND – otevřený podílový fond, 2013 Annual Report
with general accounting principles, specifically the accrual principle, the prudence concept and the going concern assumption.
The financial statements contain the balance sheet, profit and loss
account, statement of changes in equity and notes to the financial
statements.
counting entity, and the date when other matters to be included
in the accounting records occur, or when the documents supporting these other matters are available, or when other matters are
a consequence of internal conditions of the accounting entity and/
or special regulations.
Securities
The presentation of the financial statements requires that the
Company makes estimates which have an impact on the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities as at the date of the financial statements as well as expenses and income in the relevant accounting
period. These estimates are based on information available as at
the date of the financial statements and may differ from the actual
results.
As a result of continued market volatility since the start of the
global financial crisis, the Fund may be exposed to increased risk,
specifically due to the uncertainty regarding possible asset impairments and future developments on the market. The financial
statements have been prepared based on the current best estimates
using all relevant and available information as at the date of the
financial statements.
These financial statements are unconsolidated.
All amounts are stated in thousands of Czech crowns (CZK), unless indicated otherwise.
Explanation Added for Translation into English
These financial statements are presented on the basis of accounting
principles and standards generally accepted in the Czech Republic.
Certain accounting practices applied by the Company that conform with generally accepted accounting principles and standards
in the Czech Republic may not conform with generally accepted
accounting principles in other countries.
3. Accounting Policies
In accordance with the Fund’s strategy, all securities are classified
as securities at fair value through profit or loss. During the accounting period, securities are re-measured at fair value on a daily
basis pursuant to the Finance Ministry Regulation No. 194/2011
Coll., on more detailed regulation of certain rules in collective investment (the “Decree”), as amended.
The securities of the Fund are accounted for as securities at fair
value through profit or loss. The fair value of the securities is determined in accordance with the International Financial Reporting
Standards with an exception, that an average price between the
most favourable binding offer and demand (MID price) is used
for bonds.
Pursuant to the Regulation, securities are valued at the price quoted
on a public market which is adjusted, as appropriate, to reflect the
rules set out in the Regulation. If the market value is unavailable,
the Fund uses a value determined by the Company using valuation models based on discounted future cash flows according to
the yield curve calculated using the Reuters and Kondor+ systems.
Securities are measured at cost upon initial recognition using the
weighted average method. The acquisition cost includes direct
transaction costs related to the acquisition of securities.
Realised capital gains or losses are recorded in the profit and loss
account within ‘Profit or loss from financial operations’.
Accrued interest relating to assets is included within the total balance of these assets.
Receivables and Payables
Transaction Recognition Date
Purchases and sales of securities are recognised using trade date
accounting provided that the period between the trade date and the
fulfilment of the commitment arising from the contract does not
exceed a period typical for the relevant type of transaction.
The transaction recognition date for derivative contracts is:
a) the date upon which the related contract was entered into;
b) the date when fulfilment was delivered based on the relevant
contract.
The transaction recognition date can also be the date when money
in circulation is paid or received, the date when foreign currency is
purchased or sold, the date when a payment is made, the date when
ownership is acquired or terminated, when a receivable or payable
arises, changes or ceases to exist, when assets move within an ac-
The Fund records receivables arising from its transactions with
securities and other operating receivables at their nominal value,
while receivables from positive fair values of derivatives are recorded at the fair value of the derivatives at the balance sheet date.
Pursuant to the prudence principle, provisions are created based on
the aging of receivables.
The Fund records payables arising from its transactions with securities and operating payables at their nominal value, while payables from negative fair values of derivatives are recorded at the fair
value of the derivatives at the balance sheet date.
Financial Derivatives and Hedging Transactions
In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into hedging
contracts with financial derivatives to hedge against interest rate
and foreign currency exposures associated with its transactions on
120
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., SPOROBOND – otevřený podílový fond, 2013 Annual Report
financial markets. The method of fair value hedges is applied to
hedging derivatives.
The Fund designates certain derivatives as hedges provided that
the following criteria are met:
– the Fund has developed a risk management strategy;
– at the inception of the hedge, the hedging relationship is formally documented, the documentation identifies the hedged
item and the hedging instrument, and it defines the risk that
is being hedged and the approach to establishing whether the
hedge is effective; and
– the hedge is effective, that is, changes in the fair value or cash
flows of the hedged item are almost fully offset by changes in
the fair value or cash flows of the hedging instrument and the
results are within a range of 80 percent to 125 percent.
Nominal values of derivative financial instruments are recognised
in the off-balance sheet accounts. Changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as hedges (see above) are
recorded as income or expense. Changes in the fair value of the
hedging derivatives attributable to the risk hedged are recognised
in the same income or expense accounts as differences from revaluation of a hedged instrument.
All financial derivatives are recorded as assets when the fair value
is positive and as liabilities when the fair value is negative. Fair
values are derived from valuation models.
Derivatives that are not designated as hedging derivatives are
treated as trading derivatives. These derivatives are measured at
fair value on a daily basis and gains and losses on revaluation are
posted to derivative expense and income accounts.
Certain derivatives are embedded in compound financial instruments, which comprise the host instrument and the derivative. Pursuant to the applicable regulations, the Fund recognises changes in
assets and liabilities arising from the movements in rates or prices
of securities or changes in exchange rates through expense and income accounts. Given that the assets of the Fund are valued at fair
value and changes of fair values are reported within expenses and
income from derivatives, embedded derivatives are not accounted
for separately.
Income Tax
Under effective tax regulations, the income tax rate applicable to
mutual funds is 5 percent.
Deferred Tax
Deferred tax is provided using the liability method on all temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities reported in the balance sheet and their value for tax purposes.
Deferred tax assets are recognised only up to the amount of probable future taxable income against which the deferred tax asset can
be offset.
Foreign Currency Translations
Foreign currencies are translated using the exchange rate promulgated by the Czech National Bank as at the relevant date. As at the
balance sheet date, assets and liabilities denominated in foreign
currencies are translated on the same basis.
Foreign exchange rate gains and losses from the daily translation
of assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are posted to expense
or income accounts.
Capital Funds
The selling price of participation certificates is calculated as a proportion of the Fund’s net assets and the relevant number of participation certificates. Participation certificates are sold to investors
using the selling price determined on a daily basis.
Share Premium
Share premium is the difference between the nominal value of all
participation certificates and their carrying amounts as at the date
of their issue or purchase.
Interest Income and Expense and Dividend
Income
Interest income and expense are recognised using the accrual
principle.
Dividend income is recognised as at the date when the right to
receive the payment is established (ex-dividend date). Dividend income from domestic securities is presented after withholding tax.
Dividend income from foreign securities is presented gross with
the applicable taxes presented within taxes on foreign dividends
(see note 5.17).
Subsequent Events
The impact of events that occurred between the balance sheet date
and the date of the financial statements preparation is recognized in
the financial statements provided these events provide additional
evidence about conditions that existed at the date of the balance
sheet.
If material events reflecting the facts occurring after the balance
sheet date happened between the balance sheet date and the date
of the financial statements preparation the consequences of these
events are disclosed in the notes to the financial statements but not
recognized in the financial statements.
4. Risk Management
Credit Risk
In accordance with the Statute and the investment strategy, the
Company establishes rules and policies for selecting investment
instruments such that the overall credit risk profile of allocated investments is consistent with the characteristics of the Fund. New
types of instruments are approved on a case by case basis by the
121
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., SPOROBOND – otevřený podílový fond, 2013 Annual Report
risk management function together with the specification of limits
for positions pertaining to these instruments. Specific emphasis is
placed on an appropriate rating structure and a relatively detailed
diversification of portfolios (especially in relation to interest bearing securities).
The Fund monitors Value at Risk globally and also broken down to
Foreign Currency VaR, Interest Rate VaR and Equity VaR. Based
on the above values, the Fund identifies critical risk segments. This
identification influences the reinvestment process. The limits set
the maximum acceptable VaR for the Fund.
Market Risk
The Equity VaR also reflects the risk related to the holding of
Funds’ participation certificates (including funds of money market
and bond funds).
The Fund uses a wide range of tools to eliminate risk exposures
attached to its portfolios. Significant attention is paid to market
risks. Apart from statutory restrictions, the Fund is subject to a set
of internal limits having a direct impact on the FX exposure, interest rate exposure (the modified duration range of the Fund), equity
allocation on individual markets according to their volatility, portfolio rating structure (see above), and other characteristics of the
Fund. The relevant limits are appropriately applied to correspond
with the type of the Fund.
Whenever the Fund purchases new types of instruments, these instruments are first analysed to assess the potential credit risk, as
well as the market risk that the instruments might bring to or help
eliminate from the portfolio. Subsequently, their appropriateness
and, if appropriate, the acceptable proportion of these instruments
in the portfolio is evaluated.
The level of the Fund’s market risk exposure is measured using
the Value at Risk (“VaR”). With effect from 1 August 2006, the
VaR for the Company’s Funds is calculated by the Central Risk
Management Department of Česká spořitelna using the historical
simulation method in the K + KvaR system.
Set out below are relative monthly values of the VaR in percentage
terms for individual types of risks:

The average VaR is calculated as an average of daily VaR values in
years 2013 and 2012 respectively.
Adherence to all the above limits and their effectiveness is monitored and assessed on an ongoing basis. The limits are reviewed,
if necessary.
The portfolio’s risk of unfavourable development of foreign exchange rates, interest rates, and other market factors is hedged, to
an appropriate extent, by financial derivatives. Financial derivatives are traded on the OTC market as this market enables the trading of contracts whose parameters and nature appropriately satisfy
the requirements of a hedge. Portfolios primarily include currency
swaps, currency forwards and interest rate swaps.
Liquidity Risk
Another monitored risk is the liquidity risk. Liquidity risk is a risk
that the Fund will not have enough available resources to meet its
obligations arising from financial contracts. Liquidity is monitored
and managed based on expected cash flows, with appropriate adjustments made to the structure of securities and term placements
portfolios.
Pursuant to the Act, the Company is obliged to repurchase a participation certificate without undue delay but not later than 15 business days from the date when the repurchase right is claimed. Given that the Fund holds securities traded on foreign stock exchanges
which can be realised within a few days, the Fund’s inability to
meet its obligations due to lack of liquidity is unlikely.
Pursuant to Section 12 of the Collective Investment Act, the Company can suspend issues and purchases of the Fund’s participation
certificates for a maximum of three months, if necessary due to the
protection of rights or the participation certificate holders’ interests
protected by law. Issuing and purchasing participation certificates
can be suspended particularly at the end or beginning of the calendar year, in the event of natural disasters, upon very strong fluctuations on financial markets and upon high requirements for the
sales or purchases of participation certificates provided they could
endanger the Fund’s assets.
The quantitative information about the residual maturity of assets
and liabilities is given in Note 5.19.

Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management of Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the Czech Republic, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the
Act on Auditors and International Standards on Auditing as amended by implementation guidance of the Chamber of Auditors of the Czech
Republic. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance
whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including an assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements,
whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation
and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the
purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness
of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Investiční společnost České
spořitelny, a. s., TRENDBOND – otevřený dluhopisový podílový fond, as at 31 December 2013, and its financial performance for the year

Notes to the Financial Statements
for the year ended 31 December 2013
1. Organisation and Description of
Business
Formation and Description of the Business
Investiční společnost České spořitelny a.s., TRENDBOND –
otevřený dluhopisový podílový fond (hereinafter the “Fund” or
“ISČS, a. s. – TRENDBOND OPF dluhopisový”) is an accounting
unit without legal entity status, formed by Investiční společnost
České spořitelny, a. s. (hereinafter the “Company”) as an openended mutual fund under the Investment Companies and Funds
Act No. 248/1992 Coll., based upon the Resolution of the Securities Commission dated 11 October 2001. The Fund commenced its
activities on 29 October 2001.
Pursuant to a concluded contract, Česká spořitelna, a. s. acts as the
depository of the Fund.
The Fund is managed by the Company. In compliance with the
Collective Investment Act No. 189/2004 Coll. (hereinafter the
“Act”), the Company is responsible for the management of the assets of the Fund, which involves the administration and handling
of the assets.
The Fund is a standard fund in compliance with the Act and meets
the requirements of EU legislation.
According to the classification binding for the members of the
Capital Market Association (hereinafter the “AKAT CR”) as at the
date of the approval of this Statute, the Fund can be defined as
a bond fund.
Registered Office
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s.
TRENDBOND – otevřený dluhopisový podílový fond
Prague 6, Evropská 2690/17
Principal Business
The Company collects funds from individuals and legal entities for
the Fund by issuing participation certificates with the purpose of
their collective investment on local and foreign financial markets.
No restrictions are placed on the number of participation certificates for issue and the period for which the Fund is established.
The Company reserves the right to temporary halt the issuing of
participation certificates for no longer than three months in compliance with the Act.
The participation certificates of the Fund are available both in the
Czech Republic and in other EU member countries.
The Fund is a standard collective investment fund that meets the
requirements of EU legislation. This also entails that the Fund is
subject to supervision which is equivalent to the supervision pursuant to the EU legislation, the level of protection of the participation
certificate holders’ assets is equivalent to the protection provided
to participation certificate holders of other collective investment
funds that fulfil the requirements of Council Directive No. 85/611/
EEC as of 20 December 1985, on the coordination of legal and
administrative regulations regarding collective investment entities
transferable into securities, as amended by Council Directive No.
88/220/EEC, Directive 95/26/ES of the European Parliament and
Council, Directive 2001/107/EC of the European Parliament and
Council and Directive 2001/108/EC of the European Parliament
and Council. The Company prepares mid-year and annual reports
on the administration of mutual fund assets, which provide a true
view of the assets and liabilities, revenues and transactions in the
reporting period.
Investment Policy of the Fund
The objective of the investment policy is to provide participation
certificate holders with a long-term appreciation of participation
certificates primarily through investments in bonds of European
Union candidate or new member states. The Fund is managed
such that it benefits from the decrease, if any, of interest income
while maximising the income from changes in exchange rates. Due
to a significant proportion of foreign currencies in the portfolio,
which may be up to 70 percent, the value of the participation certificates may have a high short-term fluctuation rate.
The Fund’s portfolio predominantly includes state bonds of Central and Eastern Europe countries. The Fund also invests in treasury bills, bank deposits or bonds with embedded derivatives. The
portfolio of the Fund may also be expanded by purchasing bonds
exchangeable for shares or with the option to subscribe for shares.
The Fund is a standard fund pursuant to the Collective Investment
Act. The Company fulfils the requirements of the EU legislation
when managing the Fund’s assets.
According to the classification binding for the members of AKAT
as at the date of the approval of this Statute, the Fund can be defined as a bond fund.
Up to 10 percent of the finances collected in the Fund can be invested in securities of the collective investment funds if such collective
investment fund invests in identical classes of assets as a standard
fund in compliance with the Act, spreads the risk connected to investments, repurchases securities which it issued or ensures that
the exchange rate or price of these securities on the regulated market does not significantly differ from their current amount provided
137
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., TRENDBOND – otevřený podílový fond, 2013 Annual Report
that it has been authorised by a supervision body of the state where
it has its registered office and falls subject to supervision which
the Czech National Bank considers equivalent to the supervision
within the European Union member states and provided that the
cooperation between the Czech National Bank and this supervision
body is ensured and the protection of owners of securities issued
by this collective investment fund is equivalent to the protection
provided to owners of securities issued by a collective investment
fund fulfilling the requirements of the EC legislation; this collective investment fund must principally comply with provisions on
borrowing, lending and sales of assets for a short time (Sections
33 to 35 of the Collective Investment Act), separating its assets in
accounting pursuant to Section 16 (1) of the Collective Investment
Act, prepare and publish mid-year and annual reports, which provide a true view of assets and liabilities, revenues and transactions
in the reporting period, and its Statute can allow investments up to
the maximum of 10 percent of the value of its assets into securities
issued by another collective investment fund.
This 10 percent investment limit provision tightens investment
limits for investing into securities of collective investment funds
set out in Section 30 (1) and (2) of the Collective Investment Act.
The Fund can also purchase bonds can be exchanged for shares or
which carry the priority right for the subscription of shares into the
portfolio of the Fund. In the event of claiming the rights arising
from these bonds for the acquisition of shares, the shares must not
exceed 10 percent of the value of the Fund’s assets.
The Company can use financial derivatives to effectively manage
the Fund’s assets. Efficient asset management represents transactions for the purpose of decreasing risk, decreasing costs or achieving sufficient income for the Fund provided that the risk is demonstrably low. The exposure from these transactions must be fully
covered by the Fund’s assets so that liabilities arising from these
transactions are fulfilled.
The limits of the Fund are adhered to on the basis of the Act, or
they are regulated in the Fund’s Statute in compliance with the Act.
Management Policy
The profit/(loss) is based on the difference between income and
expenses related to the management of the Fund’s assets.
The generated profit has been fully retained by the Fund, in the reinvestment fund, as a source for further investments, and increases
the participation certificate value. In the event that the Fund incurs
a loss from the Company’s management of assets, the loss is covered from the reinvestment fund which was created from earnings
brought forward. If the reinvestment fund is not sufficient, the loss
must be covered by a reduction in the Fund’s capital fund.
The Fund’s assets must not be used for the provision of loans, borrowings or gifts, to secure a third party’s obligation or to settle
a payable which is not related to the Fund’s management. This
provision does not affect Sections 26 and 27 of the Collective Investment Act.
The Company can accept loans and borrowings for the maximum
of six months when managing the Fund’s assets, to cover temporary needs related to the management of the Fund’s assets or
purchases of participation certificates. The volume of the received
loans and borrowings is not allowed to exceed 10 percent of the
value of the Fund’s assets.
Change in the Fund’s Statute
Czech National Bank Resolution No. 2012/4695/570, dated 18
May 2012, which came into force on 5 June 2012: The changes
to the Funds statute related mainly to the duty of the asset investment company to ensure that its statute is in accordance with the
amendment to Act 189/2004 Coll., Act on collective investments
(as ensuing from the changes made by Act 188/2011 Coll.) and Decree No. 193/2011 Coll., on the minimum requisites of the statute
and on the conditions for the use of the name Short-Term Money
Market Fund and Money Market Fund. In light of the change made
to the methodology of classifying mutual funds of the Capital Market Association, the definition of a bond fund in the introductory
Definition of Terms of the Funds statute has been modified, as well
as the wording of certain related provisions. Investment objectives,
the method of investing and the risk profile of the Fund have not
been changed in the amendments referred to above.
Along with the change made to the statute, information was updated as to the list of funds managed by the Company (Article II
Paragraph 8 of the statute), in particular information on the managing parties of the asset management company (Appendix 1 to
the statute), information added on the performance of the Fund for
2011 (Appendix 2 to the statute), information updated on the total
cost indicators for 2011, and the date on which the statute being
signed was updated.
On the date the changes to the statute came into force the simple
statute of the Fund was replaced by a newly processed document
providing required key information for investors. Such key information for investors was processed in accordance with Commission (EU) Regulation No. 583/2012.
As at 1 February 2013, information on Fund`s 2012 performance
was published within the document Key investors information. (According to the article 23, section 3 of Council Regulation (EC) no.
583/2010, the performance must be updated within the Key investors information up to 35 days after the previous calendar year end.)
The updated text of the Funds statute was approved by the Investment company`s board of directors as at 10 April 2013. The
changes in the statute text related to an update of the list of managed funds, update of the information on the length of professional
experience of Investment company management, addition of information on Fund’s performance and the Fund`s benchmark`s
performance, an update of information on total expense ratio for
138
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., TRENDBOND – otevřený podílový fond, 2013 Annual Report
2012 and update of the date of the signature. These updates were
not subject to preliminary approval from Czech national bank (according to the section 84 (a), subsection 5 of 189/2004 Coll., Act
on collective investment schemes). The shareholders could access
the updated text of the Statute and Key investors information as of
10 April 2013 on http://www.iscs.cz/, at the distributor’s branches
(Ceska sporitelna, a. s.) and at the Investment company seat.
specifically due to the uncertainty regarding possible asset impairments and future developments on the market. The financial
statements have been prepared based on the current best estimates
using all relevant and available information as at the date of the
financial statements.
Legislative change
All amounts are stated in thousands of Czech crowns (CZK), unless indicated otherwise.
Act No 240/2013 Coll., Act on Management Companies and Investment Funds became effective as of 19 August 2013. Rules
stated by this act must be implemented by management companies
and investment funds by 22 July 2014. In 2013, the Fund`s management was subject to the rules of the Act No. 189/2004 Coll., Act
on collective investment schemes. The new rules will be applied
as of 2014.
2. Basis of Preparation
The financial statements have been prepared on the basis of underlying accounting records maintained in accordance with Accounting Act No. 563/1991 Coll., and applicable regulations, decrees and internal standards in compliance with and in the scope
defined in Czech Finance Ministry Regulation No. 501/2002 of
6 November 2002, as subsequently amended, which sets out the
overall framework for the presentation of the financial statements,
and guidelines for the structure and minimum requirements for the
content of the financial statements of banks and certain financial
institutions, and Czech Accounting Standards for Financial Institutions, which establish the accounting principles and policies.
The basis of preparation and the accounting policies have been
consistently applied during both 2013 and 2012.
The Fund is obliged to comply with the regulatory requirements
of the Act.
The financial statements are presented in compliance with general
accounting principles, specifically the accrual principle, the prudence concept and the going concern assumption.
The financial statements contain the balance sheet, profit and loss
account, statement of changes in equity, and notes to the financial
statements.
These financial statements are unconsolidated.
Explanation Added for Translation into English
These financial statements are presented on the basis of accounting
principles and standards generally accepted in the Czech Republic.
Certain accounting practices applied by the Company that conform with generally accepted accounting principles and standards
in the Czech Republic may not conform with generally accepted
accounting principles in other countries.
3. Accounting Policies
Transaction Recognition Date
Purchases and sales of securities are recognised using trade date
accounting provided that the period between the trade date and the
fulfilment of the commitment arising from the contract does not
exceed a period typical for the relevant type of transaction.
The transaction recognition date for derivative contracts is:
a) the date upon which the related contract was entered into;
b) the date when fulfilment was delivered based on the relevant
contract.
The transaction recognition date can also be the date when money
in circulation is paid or received, the date when foreign currency is
purchased or sold, the date when a payment is made, the date when
ownership is acquired or terminated, when a receivable or payable
arises, changes or ceases to exist, when assets move within an accounting entity, and the date when other matters to be included
in the accounting records occur, or when the documents supporting these other matters are available, or when other matters are
a consequence of internal conditions of the accounting entity and/
or special regulations.
Securities
The presentation of the financial statements requires that the
Company make estimates which have an impact on the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities as at the date of the financial statements as well as expenses and income in the relevant accounting
period. These estimates are based on information available as at
the date of the financial statements and may differ from the actual
results.
As a result of continued market volatility since the start of the
global financial crisis, the Fund may be exposed to increased risk,
In accordance with the Fund’s strategy, all securities are classified
as ‘securities at fair value through profit or loss. During the accounting period, securities are re-measured at fair value on a daily
basis pursuant to the Finance Ministry Regulation No. 194/2011
Coll., on more detailed regulation of certain rules in collective investment (the “Decree”), as amended.
The securities of the Fund are accounted for as securities at fair
value through profit or loss. The fair value of the securities is determined in accordance with the International Financial Reporting
139
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., TRENDBOND – otevřený podílový fond, 2013 Annual Report
Standards with an exception, that an average price between the
most favourable binding offer and demand (MID price) is used
for bonds.
Pursuant to the Regulation, securities are valued at the price quoted
on a public market which is adjusted, as appropriate, to reflect the
rules set out in the Regulation. If the market value is unavailable,
the Fund uses a value determined by the Company using valuation models based on discounted future cash flows according to
the yield curve calculated using the Reuters and Kondor+ systems.
Securities are measured at cost upon initial recognition using the
weighted average method. The acquisition cost includes direct
transaction costs related to the acquisition of securities.
Realised capital gains or losses are recorded in the profit and loss
account within ‘Profit or loss from financial operations’.
Accrued interest relating to assets is included within the total balance of these assets.
Receivables and Payables
The Fund records receivables arising from its transactions with
securities and other operating receivables at their nominal value,
while receivables from positive fair values of derivatives are recorded at the fair value of the derivatives at the balance sheet date.
Pursuant to the prudence principle, provisions are created based on
the aging of receivables.
The Fund records payables arising from its transactions with securities and operating payables at their nominal value, while payables from negative fair values of derivatives are recorded at the fair
value of the derivatives at the balance sheet date.
Financial Derivatives and Hedging Transactions
In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into hedging
contracts with financial derivatives to hedge against interest rate
and foreign currency exposures associated with its transactions on
financial markets. The method of fair value hedges is applied to
hedging derivatives.
The Fund designates certain derivatives as hedges provided that
the following criteria are met:
– the Fund has developed a risk management strategy;
– at the inception of the hedge, the hedging relationship is formally documented, the documentation identifies the hedged
item and the hedging instrument, and it defines the risk that
is being hedged and the approach to establishing whether the
hedge is effective; and
– the hedge is effective, that is, changes in the fair value or cash
flows of the hedged item are almost fully offset by changes in
the fair value or cash flows of the hedging instrument and the
results are within a range of 80 percent to 125 percent.
Nominal values of derivative financial instruments are recognised
in the off-balance sheet accounts. Changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as hedges (see above) are
recorded as income or expense. Changes in the fair value of the
hedging derivatives attributable to the risk hedged are recognised
in the same income or expense accounts as differences from revaluation of a hedged instrument.
All financial derivatives are recorded as assets when the fair value
is positive and as liabilities when the fair value is negative. Fair
values are derived from valuation models.
Derivatives that are not designated as hedging derivatives are
treated as trading derivatives. These derivatives are measured at
fair value on a daily basis and gains and losses on revaluation are
posted to derivative expense and income accounts.
Certain derivatives are embedded in compound financial instruments, which comprise the host instrument and the derivative. Pursuant to the applicable regulations, the Fund recognises changes in
assets and liabilities arising from the movements in rates or prices
of securities or changes in exchange rates through expense and income accounts. Given that the assets of the Fund are valued at fair
value and changes of fair values are reported within expenses and
income from derivatives, embedded derivatives are not accounted
for separately.
Income Tax
Under effective tax regulations, the income tax rate applicable to
mutual funds is 5 percent.
Deferred Tax
Deferred tax is provided using the liability method on all temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities reported in the balance sheet and their value for tax purposes.
Deferred tax assets are recognised only up to the amount of probable future taxable income against which the deferred tax asset can
be offset.
Foreign Currency Translations
Foreign currencies are translated using the exchange rate promulgated by the Czech National Bank as at the relevant date. As at the
balance sheet date, assets and liabilities denominated in foreign
currencies are translated on the same basis.
Foreign exchange rate gains and losses from the daily translation
of assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are posted to expense
or income accounts.
Capital Funds
The selling price of participation certificates is calculated as a proportion of the Fund’s net assets and the relevant number of participation certificates. Participation certificates are sold to investors
using the selling price determined on a daily basis.
140
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., TRENDBOND – otevřený podílový fond, 2013 Annual Report
Share Premium
Share premium is the difference between the nominal value of all
participation certificates and their carrying amounts as at the date
of their issue or purchase.
The level of the Fund’s market risk exposure is measured using
the Value at Risk (“VaR”). With effect from 1 August 2006, the
VaR for the Company’s Funds is calculated by the Central Risk
Management Department of Česká spořitelna using the historical
simulation method in the K + KvaR system.
Interest Income and Expense
Interest income and expense are recognised using the accrual principle.
Set out below are relative monthly values of the VaR in percentage
terms for individual types of risks:
Subsequent Events
The impact of events that occurred between the balance sheet date
and the date of the financial statements preparation is recognized in
the financial statements provided these events provide additional
evidence about conditions that existed at the date of the balance
sheet.
If material events reflecting the facts occurring after the balance
sheet date happened between the balance sheet date and the date
of the financial statements preparation the consequences of these
events are disclosed in the notes to the financial statements but not
recognized in the financial statements.

4. Risk Management
Credit Risk
In accordance with the Statute and the investment strategy, the
Company establishes rules and policies for selecting investment
instruments such that the overall credit risk profile of allocated investments is consistent with the characteristics of the Fund. New
types of instruments are approved on a case by case basis by the
risk management function together with the specification of limits
for positions pertaining to these instruments. Specific emphasis is
placed on an appropriate rating structure and a relatively detailed
diversification of portfolios (especially in relation to interest bearing securities).
Market Risk
The Fund uses a wide range of tools to eliminate risk exposures
attached to its portfolios. Significant attention is paid to market
risks. Apart from statutory restrictions, the Fund is subject to a set
of internal limits having a direct impact on the FX exposure, interest rate exposure (the modified duration range of the Fund), equity
allocation on individual markets according to their volatility, portfolio rating structure (see above), and other characteristics of the
Fund. The relevant limits are appropriately applied to correspond
with the type of the Fund.
Whenever the Fund purchases new types of instruments, these instruments are first analysed to assess the potential credit risk, as
well as the market risk that the instruments might bring to or help
eliminate from the portfolio. Subsequently, their appropriateness
and, if appropriate, the acceptable proportion of these instruments
in the portfolio is evaluated.
The average VaR is calculated as average of daily VaR values in
years 2013 and 2012 respectively.
The Fund monitors Value at Risk globally and also broken down to
Foreign Currency VaR, Interest Rate VaR and Equity VaR. Based
on the above values, the Fund identifies critical risk segments. This
identification influences the reinvestment process. The limits set
the maximum acceptable VaR for the Fund.
The Equity VaR also reflects the risk related to the holding of mutual funds’ participation certificates (including funds of money
market and bond funds).
Adherence to all the above limits and their effectiveness is monitored and assessed on an ongoing basis. The limits are reviewed,
if necessary.
The portfolio’s risk of unfavourable development of foreign exchange rates, interest rates, and other market factors is hedged, to
an appropriate extent, by financial derivatives. Financial derivatives are traded on the OTC market as this market enables the trading of contracts whose parameters and nature appropriately satisfy
the requirements of a hedge. Portfolios primarily include currency
swaps, currency forwards and interest rate swaps.
Liquidity Risk
Another monitored risk is the liquidity risk. Liquidity risk is a risk
that the Fund will not have enough available resources to meet its
obligations arising from financial contracts. Liquidity is monitored
and managed based on expected cash flows, with appropriate ad-
141
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., TRENDBOND – otevřený podílový fond, 2013 Annual Report
justments made to the structure of securities and term placements
portfolios.
Pursuant to the Act, the Company is obliged to repurchase a participation certificate without undue delay but not later than 15 business days from the date when the repurchase right is claimed. Given that the Fund holds securities traded on foreign stock exchanges
which can be realised within a few days, the Fund’s inability to
meet its obligations due to lack of liquidity is unlikely.
Pursuant to Section 12 of the Collective Investment Act, the Company can suspend issues and purchases of the Fund’s participation
certificates for a maximum of three months, if necessary due to the
protection of rights or the participation certificate holders’ interests
protected by law. Issuing and purchasing participation certificates
can be suspended particularly at the end or beginning of the calendar year, in the event of natural disasters, upon very strong fluctuations on financial markets and upon high requirements for the
sales or purchases of participation certificates provided they could
endanger the Fund’s assets.
The quantitative information about the residual maturity of assets
and liabilities is given in Note 5.18.

5.5 Equity
The Fund has no share capital. The nominal value of one participation certificate is CZK 1. The total nominal value of all participation
certificates is posted to ‘Capital funds’.
Share premium arising from the difference between the nominal and selling values of the participation certificates is recorded separately.
The Fund accounts for share premium upon the sale of participation certificates as well as upon their repurchase.
The selling price of the participation certificate is determined as the share of the Fund’s net assets and the number of issued participation certificates.
The value of a participation certificate as at the last trading date in 2013 totalled CZK 1.3449 (2012: CZK 1.3477). This is the most recent
announced value of the participation certificate for the year, for which purchases and repurchases of the participation certificates of the Fund
were undertaken.
In line with the Fund’s Statute, the profit for 2013 in the amount of CZK 300 thousand will be transferred to the reinvestment fund within
‘Other funds from profit’.
In line with the Fund’s Statute, the profit for 2012 in the amount of CZK 97,797 thousand was transferred to the reinvestment fund within
‘Other funds from profit’.

ČS korporátní dluhopisový – otevřený podílový fond
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., ČS korporátní dluhopisový –
otevřený podílový fond, which comprise the balance sheet as at 31 December 2013, and the income statement and statement of changes in

společnost České spořitelny, a. s., ČS korporátní dluhopisový – otevřený podílový fond, see Note 1 to the financial statements.
Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management of Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the Czech Republic, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the
Act on Auditors and International Standards on Auditing as amended by implementation guidance of the Chamber of Auditors of the Czech
Republic. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance
whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including an assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements,
whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation
and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the
purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness
of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Investiční společnost České
spořitelny, a. s., ČS korporátní dluhopisový – otevřený podílový fond, as at 31 December 2013, and its financial performance for the year

Notes to the Financial Statements
for the year ended 31 December 2013
1. Organisation and Description of
Business
Formation and Description of the Business
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., ČS korporátní dluhopisový – otevřený podílový fond (hereinafter the “Fund” or
“ISČS, a. s. ČS korporátní dluhopisový – OPF”) is an accounting
unit without legal entity status, formed by Investiční společnost
České spořitelny, a. s. (hereinafter the “Company”) in compliance
with the Investment Companies and Funds Act No. 248/1992 Coll.
Based on the Company’s request dated 22 December 2003, the
Securities Commission approved the formation of a fund entitled
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s. – ČS korporátní dluhopisový otevřený podílový fond. The Fund commenced its activities
on 1 April 2004.
The following change in the Fund’s name was approved by the
Czech National Bank’s decision No. 2009/2907/570 dated 27 April
2009, which came into legal effect on 15 May 2009: Investiční
společnost České spořitelny, a. s., ČS korporátní dluhopisový –
otevřený podílový fond.
Pursuant to a concluded contract, Česká spořitelna, a. s. acts as the
depository of the Fund.
The Fund is managed by the Company. In compliance with the
Collective Investment Act No. 189/2004 Coll. (hereinafter the
“Act”), the Company is responsible for the management of the assets of the Fund, which involves the administration and handling
of the assets.
The Fund is a standard fund in compliance with the Act and meets
the requirements of EU legislation.
According to the classification binding for the members of the
Capital Market Association (hereinafter the “AKAT CR”) as at the
date of the approval of this Statute, the Fund can be defined as
a bond fund.
Registered Office

Prague 6, Evropská 2690/17
No restrictions are placed on the number of participation certificates for issue and the period for which the Fund is established.
Pursuant to Section 12 of the Act, the Company can suspend issues
and purchases of the Fund’s participation certificates for a maximum of three months in compliance with the Act.
The Company is obliged to repurchase a participation certificate
without undue delay but not later than 15 business days from the
date when the repurchase right is claimed if the purchase of a participation certificate is not suspended.
The participation certificates of the Fund are available both in the
Czech Republic and in other EU member countries.
Investment Policy of the Fund
The objective of the Fund’s investment policy is to appreciate participation certificates of the participation certificate holders in the
long-term by investing in bonds of corporate, municipality, bank
and state issuers from developing countries in Europe, the Middle East and Africa. The aim is achieved by investing in a widely
diversified portfolio of securities with interest income and active
management of interest rate risk. The Fund invests in the bonds of
the issuers referred to above, traded on the public markets of the
member states of the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and
Development. Foreign currency risk is hedged by standard hedging transactions.
The portfolio of the Fund predominantly includes bonds with fixed
and variable coupon, denominated in EUR and USD, the issuers
of which are companies and state institutions from EMEA region
countries (Eastern and Central Europe, Middle East and Africa).
The Fund also invests in treasury bills, bank deposits, or bonds
with embedded derivatives.
The portfolio of the Fund may also be expanded by purchasing
bonds exchangeable for shares or with the option to subscribe for
shares.
The Fund may invest in securities of collective investment funds,
if such a collective investment fund invests in the same types of assets, distributes the risk connected to investments and meets other
obligations as set by the Act.
The limits of the Fund are adhered to on the basis of the Act, or
they are regulated in the Fund’s Statute in compliance with the Act.
Principal Business
The Company collects funds from individuals and legal entities by
issuing participation certificates with the purpose of their collective investment on local and foreign financial markets.
The Fund uses financial derivatives to hedge against currency and
interest rate exposures.
154
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., ČS korporátní dluhopisový – otevřený podílový fond, 2013 Annual Report
The Company can use financial derivatives to effectively manage
the Fund’s assets. Efficient asset management represents transactions for the purpose of decreasing risk, decreasing costs or achieving sufficient income for the Fund provided that the risk is demonstrably low. The exposure from these transactions must be fully
covered by the Fund’s assets so that liabilities arising from these
transactions are fulfilled.
Management Policy
The profit/(loss) is based on the difference between income and
expenses related to the management of the Fund’s assets.
The generated profit has been fully retained by the Fund, in the reinvestment fund, as a source for further investments, and increases
the participation certificate value. In the event that the Fund incurs
a loss from the Company’s management of assets, the loss is covered from the reinvestment fund which was created from earnings
brought forward. If the reinvestment fund is not sufficient, the loss
must be covered by a reduction in the Fund’s capital fund.
The Fund’s assets must not be used for the provision of loans, borrowings or gifts, to secure a third party’s obligation or to settle
a payable which is not related to the Fund’s management. This
provision does not affect Sections 26 and 27 of the Collective Investment Act.
When managing the Fund’s assets, contracts for the sale of securities and money market instruments, securities issued by other collective investment funds and financial derivatives which are not
owned by the Fund at the moment of concluding the respective
contracts, may not be entered into.
The Company can accept loans and borrowings for the maximum
of six months when managing the Fund’s assets, to cover temporary needs related to the management of the Fund’s assets or
purchases of participation certificates. The volume of the received
loans and borrowings is not allowed to exceed 10 percent of the
value of the Fund’s assets.
Change in the Statute
Czech National Bank Resolution No. 2012/4692/570, dated 18
May 2012, which came into force on 5 June 2012: The changes to
the Funds statute related mainly to the duty of the asset investment
company to ensure that its statute is in accordance with the amendment to Act 189/2004 Coll., on collective investments (as ensuing
from the changes made by Act 188/2011 Coll.) and Decree No.
193/2011 Coll., on the minimum requisites of the statute and on
the conditions for the use of the name Short-Term Money Market
Fund and Money Market Fund. Investment objectives, the method
of investing and the risk profile of the Fund have not been changed
in the amendments referred to above.
Along with the change made to the statute, information was updated as to the list of funds managed by the Company (Article II
Paragraph 8 of the statute), in particular information on the manag-
ing parties of the asset management company (Appendix 1 to the
statute), information added on the performance of the mutual fund
for 2011 (Appendix 2 to the statute), information updated on the
total cost indicators for 2011, and the date on which the statute being signed was updated.
On the date the changes to the statute came into force the simple
statute of the Fund was replaced by a newly processed document
providing required key information for investors. Such key information for investors was processed in accordance with Commission (EU) Regulation No. 583/2012.
As at 1 February 2013, information on Fund`s 2012 performance
was published within the document Key investors information.
(According to the article 23, section 3 of Council Regulation (EC)
no. 583/2010, the performance must be updated within the Key investors information up to 35 days after the previous calendar year
end.)
The updated text of the Funds statute was approved by the Investment company`s board of directors as at 10 April 2013. The
changes in the statute text related to an update of the list of managed funds, update of the information on the length of professional
experience of Investment company management, addition of information on Fund’s performance and the Fund`s benchmark`s
performance, an update of information on total expense ratio for
2012 and update of the date of the signature. These updates were
not subject to preliminary approval from Czech national bank (according to the section 84 (a), subsection 5 of 189/2004 Coll. Act on
collective investment. The shareholders could access the updated
text of the Statute and Key investors information as of 10 April
2013 on http://www.iscs.cz/, at the distributor’s branches (Ceska
sporitelna, a. s.) and at the Investment company seat.
Legislative change
Act No 240/2013 Coll., Act on Management Companies and Investment Funds became effective as of 19 August 2013. Rules
stated by this act must be implemented by management companies
and investment funds by 22 July 2014. In 2013, the Fund`s management was subject to the rules of the Act No. 189/2004 Coll.,
On collective investment schemes. The new rules will be applied
as of 2014.
2. Basis of Preparation
The financial statements have been prepared on the basis of underlying accounting records maintained in accordance with Accounting Act No. 563/1991 Coll., and applicable regulations, decrees and internal standards in compliance with and in the scope
defined in Czech Finance Ministry Regulation No. 501/2002 of
6 November 2002, as subsequently amended, which sets out the
overall framework for the presentation of the financial statements,
and guidelines for the structure and minimum requirements for the
content of the financial statements of banks and certain financial
155
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., ČS korporátní dluhopisový – otevřený podílový fond, 2013 Annual Report
institutions, and Czech Accounting Standards for Financial Institutions, which establish the accounting principles and policies.
The basis of preparation and the accounting policies have been
consistently applied during both 2013 and 2012.
The Fund is obliged to comply with the regulatory requirements
of the Act.
The financial statements are based on the accrual principle, that is,
transactions and other events are recognised in the accounting period in which they occur, regardless of when the related monetary
flow arises. The financial statements are presented in compliance
with general accounting principles, specifically the accrual principle, the prudence concept and the going concern assumption.
The financial statements contain the balance sheet, profit and loss
account, statement of changes in equity, and notes to the financial
statements.
The presentation of the financial statements requires that the
Company makes estimates which have an impact on the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities as at the date of the financial statements as well as expenses and income in the relevant accounting
period. These estimates are based on information available as at
the date of the financial statements and may differ from the actual
results.
As a result of continued market volatility since the start of the
global financial crisis, the Fund may be exposed to increased risk,
specifically due to the uncertainty regarding possible asset impairments and future developments on the market. The financial
statements have been prepared based on the current best estimates
using all relevant and available information as at the date of the
financial statements.
The transaction recognition date for derivative contracts is:
a) the date upon which the related contract was entered into;
b) the date when fulfilment was delivered based on the relevant
contract.
The transaction recognition date can also be the date when money
in circulation is paid or received, the date when foreign currency is
purchased or sold, the date when a payment is made, the date when
ownership is acquired or terminated, when a receivable or payable
arises, changes or ceases to exist, when assets move within an accounting entity, and the date when other matters to be included
in the accounting records occur, or when the documents supporting these other matters are available, or when other matters are
a consequence of internal conditions of the accounting entity and/
or special regulations.
Securities
In accordance with the Fund’s strategy, all securities are classified
as securities at fair value through profit or loss. During the accounting period, securities are re-measured at fair value on a daily
basis pursuant to the Finance Ministry Regulation No. 194/2011
Coll., on more detailed regulation of certain rules in collective investment (the “Decree”), as amended.
The securities of the Fund are accounted for as securities at fair
value through profit or loss. The fair value of the securities is determined in accordance with the International Financial Reporting
Standards with an exception, that an average price between the
most favourable binding offer and demand (MID price) is used for.
Pursuant to the Regulation, securities are valued at the price quoted
on a public market which is adjusted, as appropriate, to reflect the
rules set out in the Regulation. If the market value is unavailable,
the Fund uses a value determined by the Company using valuation models based on discounted future cash flows according to
the yield curve calculated using the Reuters and Kondor+ systems.
These financial statements are unconsolidated.
All amounts are stated in thousands of Czech crowns (CZK), unless indicated otherwise.
Explanation Added for Translation into English
These financial statements are presented on the basis of accounting
principles and standards generally accepted in the Czech Republic.
Certain accounting practices applied by the Company that conform with generally accepted accounting principles and standards
in the Czech Republic may not conform with generally accepted
accounting principles in other countries.
3. Accounting Policies
Purchases and sales of securities are recognised using trade date
accounting provided that the period between the trade date and the
fulfilment of the commitment arising from the contract does not
exceed a period typical for the relevant type of transaction.
Securities are measured at cost upon initial recognition. The acquisition cost includes direct transaction costs related to the acquisition of securities.
Realised capital gains or losses are recorded in the profit and loss
account within ‘Profit or loss from financial operations’.
Accrued interest relating to assets is included within the total balance of these assets.
Receivables and Payables
The Fund records receivables arising from its transactions with
securities and other operating receivables at their nominal value,
while receivables from positive fair values of derivatives are recorded at the fair value of the derivatives at the balance sheet date.
Pursuant to the prudence principle, provisions are created based on
the aging of receivables.
156
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., ČS korporátní dluhopisový – otevřený podílový fond, 2013 Annual Report
The Fund records payables arising from its transactions with securities and operating payables at their nominal value, while payables from negative fair values of derivatives are recorded at the fair
value of the derivatives at the balance sheet date.
Financial Derivatives and Hedging Transactions
In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into hedging
contracts with financial derivatives to hedge against interest rate
and foreign currency exposures associated with its transactions on
financial markets. The method of fair value hedges is applied to
hedging derivatives.
The Fund designates certain derivatives as hedges provided that
the following criteria are met:
– the Fund has developed a risk management strategy;
– at the inception of the hedge, the hedging relationship is formally documented, the documentation identifies the hedged
item and the hedging instrument, and it defines the risk that
is being hedged and the approach to establishing whether the
hedge is effective; and
– the hedge is effective, that is, changes in the fair value or cash
flows of the hedged item are almost fully offset by changes in
the fair value or cash flows of the hedging instrument and the
results are within a range of 80 percent to 125 percent.
Deferred Tax
Deferred tax is provided using the liability method on all temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities reported in the balance sheet and their value for tax purposes.
Deferred tax assets are recognised only up to the amount of probable future taxable income against which the deferred tax asset can
be offset.
Foreign Currency Translation
Foreign currencies are translated using the exchange rate promulgated by the Czech National Bank as at the relevant date. As at the
balance sheet date, assets and liabilities denominated in foreign
currencies are translated on the same basis.
Foreign exchange rate gains and losses from the daily translation
of assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are posted to expense
or income accounts.
Capital Funds
The selling price of participation certificates is calculated as a proportion of the Fund’s net assets and the relevant number of participation certificates. Participation certificates are sold to investors
using the selling price determined on a daily basis.
Share Premium
Nominal values of derivative financial instruments are recognised
in the off-balance sheet accounts. Changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as hedges (see above) are
recorded as income or expense. Changes in the fair value of the
hedging derivatives attributable to the risk hedged are recognised
in the same income or expense accounts as differences from revaluation of a hedged instrument.
Share premium is the difference between the nominal value of all
participation certificates and their carrying amounts as at the date
of their issue or purchase.
All financial derivatives are recorded as assets when the fair value
is positive and as liabilities when the fair value is negative. Fair
values are derived from valuation models.
Subsequent Events
Derivatives that are not designated as hedging derivatives are
treated as trading derivatives. These derivatives are measured at
fair value on a daily basis and gains and losses on revaluation are
posted to derivative expense and income accounts.
Certain derivatives are embedded in compound financial instruments, which comprise the host instrument and the derivative. Pursuant to the applicable regulations, the Fund recognises changes in
assets and liabilities arising from the movements in rates or prices
of securities or changes in exchange rates through expense and income accounts. Given that the assets of the Fund are valued at fair
value and changes of fair values are reported within expenses and
income from derivatives, embedded derivatives are not accounted
for separately.
Income Tax
Under effective tax regulations, the income tax rate applicable to
mutual funds is 5 percent.
Interest Income and Expense
Interest income and expense are recognised using the accrual principle.
The impact of events that occurred between the balance sheet date
and the date of the financial statements preparation is recognized in
the financial statements provided these events provide additional
evidence about conditions that existed at the date of the balance
sheet.
If material events reflecting the facts occurring after the balance
sheet date happened between the balance sheet date and the date
of the financial statements preparation the consequences of these
events are disclosed in the notes to the financial statements but not
recognized in the financial statements.
4. Risk Management
Credit Risk
In accordance with the Statute and the investment strategy, the
Company establishes rules and policies for selecting investment
instruments such that the overall credit risk profile of allocated investments is consistent with the characteristics of the Fund. New
types of instruments are approved on a case by case basis by the
157
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., ČS korporátní dluhopisový – otevřený podílový fond, 2013 Annual Report
risk management function together with the specification of limits
for positions pertaining to these instruments. Specific emphasis is
placed on an appropriate rating structure and a relatively detailed
diversification of portfolios (especially in relation to interest bearing securities).
The Fund monitors Value at Risk globally and also broken down to
Foreign Currency VaR, Interest Rate VaR and Equity VaR. Based
on the above values, the Fund identifies critical risk segments. This
identification influences the reinvestment process. The limits set
the maximum acceptable VaR for the Fund.
Market Risk
The Equity VaR also reflects the risk related to the holding of mutual funds’ participation certificates (including funds of money
market and bond funds).
The Fund uses a wide range of tools to eliminate risk exposures
attached to its portfolios. Significant attention is paid to market
risks. Apart from statutory restrictions, the Fund is subject to a set
of internal limits having a direct impact on the FX exposure, interest rate exposure (the modified duration range of the Fund), equity
allocation on individual markets according to their volatility, portfolio rating structure (see above), and other characteristics of the
Fund. The relevant limits are appropriately applied to correspond
with the type of the Fund.
Whenever the Fund purchases new types of instruments, these instruments are first analysed to assess the potential credit risk, as
well as the market risk that the instruments might bring to or help
eliminate from the portfolio. Subsequently, their appropriateness
and, if appropriate, the acceptable proportion of these instruments
in the portfolio is evaluated.
The level of the Fund’s market risk exposure is measured using
the Value at Risk (“VaR”). With effect from 1 August 2006, the
VaR for the Company’s Funds is calculated by the Central Risk
Management Department of Česká spořitelna using the historical
simulation method in the K + KvaR system.
Set out below are relative monthly values of the VaR in percentage
terms for individual types of risks:

1.01%
1.25%
0.25%
1.26%
The average VaR is calculated as average of daily VaR values in
years 2013 and 2012 respectively.
Adherence to all the above limits and their effectiveness is monitored and assessed on an ongoing basis. The limits are reviewed,
if necessary.
The portfolio’s risk of unfavourable development of foreign exchange rates, interest rates, and other market factors is hedged, to
an appropriate extent, by financial derivatives. Financial derivatives are traded on the OTC market as this market enables the trading of contracts whose parameters and nature appropriately satisfy
the requirements of a hedge. Portfolios primarily include currency
and interest rate swaps.
Liquidity Risk
Another monitored risk is the liquidity risk. Liquidity risk is a risk
that the Fund will not have enough available resources to meet its
obligations arising from financial contracts. Liquidity is monitored
and managed based on expected cash flows, with appropriate adjustments made to the structure of securities and term placements
portfolios.
Pursuant to the Act, the Company is obliged to repurchase a participation certificate without undue delay but not later than 15 business days from the date when the repurchase right is claimed. Given that the Fund holds securities traded on foreign stock exchanges
which can be realised within a few days, the Fund’s inability to
meet its obligations due to lack of liquidity is unlikely.
Pursuant to Section 12 of the Collective Investment Act, the Company can suspend issues and purchases of the Fund’s participation
certificates for a maximum of three months, if necessary due to the
protection of rights or the participation certificate holders’ interests
protected by law. Issuing and purchasing participation certificates
can be suspended particularly at the end or beginning of the calendar year, in the event of natural disasters, upon very strong fluctuations on financial markets and upon high requirements for the
sales or purchases of participation certificates provided they could
endanger the Fund’s assets.
The quantitative information about the residual maturity of assets
and liabilities is given in Note 5.17.

5.5 Equity
The Fund has no share capital. The nominal value of one participation certificate is CZK 1. The total nominal value of all participation
certificates is posted to ‘Capital funds’.
Share premium arising from the difference between the nominal and selling values of the participation certificates is recorded separately.
The Fund accounts for share premium upon the sale of participation certificates as well as upon their repurchase. The selling price of the
participation certificate is determined as the share of the Fund’s net assets and the number of issued participation certificates.
The value of a participation certificate as at the last trading date in 2013 totalled CZK 1.3941 (2011: CZK 1.3774). This is the most recent
announced value of the participation certificate for the year, for which purchases and repurchases of the participation certificates of the Fund
were undertaken. This value is at least different from the carrying value of participation certificate as at 31 December 2013 due to the additional booking of some items during the financial statement.
In line with the Fund’s Statute, the profit for 2013 amounting to CZK 14,782 thousand will be transferred to the reinvestment fund within
‘Other funds from profit’

Independent Auditor’s Report
to the Participation certificate holders of Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s.,
High Yield dluhopisový – otevřený podílový fond
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., High Yield dluhopisový – otevřený
podílový fond, which comprise the balance sheet as at 31 December 2013, and the income statement and statement of changes in equity for
the year then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information. For details of Investiční společnost
České spořitelny, a. s., High Yield dluhopisový – otevřený podílový fond, see Note 1 to the financial statements.
Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management of Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the Czech Republic, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the
Act on Auditors and International Standards on Auditing as amended by implementation guidance of the Chamber of Auditors of the Czech
Republic. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance
whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including an assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements,
whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation
and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the
purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness
of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Investiční společnost České
spořitelny, a. s., High Yield dluhopisový – otevřený podílový fond, as at 31 December 2013, and its financial performance for the year then
ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the Czech Republic.

Investment Policy of the Fund
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., High Yield dluhopisový – otevřený podílový fond (hereinafter the “Fund” or

without legal entity status, formed by Investiční společnost České
spořitelny, a. s. (hereinafter the “Company”) in compliance with
the Collective Investment Act No. 189/2004 Coll. (hereinafter the

Standard & Poor’s or Moody’s rating of long-term indebtedness at
least on the speculative level, i.e. principally issuers from Western
and Eastern Europe.
Following Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s.’s request of
14 March 2006, the Securities Commission approved the formation of a fund entitled Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s.

Yield dluhopisový – otevřený podílový fond on 4 November 2008.
The credit risk is reduced through broad diversification of the Fund
portfolio, where usually up to 3 percent of the Fund’s assets are
invested in the bonds of one issuer, with exceptions allowed for
basically three issuers, where up to 5 percent of the Fund assets can
be invested into bonds.
Pursuant to a concluded contract, Česká spořitelna, a. s. acts as the
depository of the Fund.
The Fund is managed by the Company. In compliance with the
Act, the Company is responsible for the management of the assets
of the Fund, which involves the administration and handling of
the assets.
The Fund is a standard fund in compliance with the Act and meets
the requirements of EU legislation.
According to the classification binding for the members of the
Capital Market Association (hereinafter the “AKAT CR”) as at the
date of the approval of this Statute, the Fund can be defined as
a bond fund.

Change in the Fund’s Statute
Czech National Bank Resolution No. 2012/4693/570, dated 18
May 2012, which came into force on 5 June 2012: The changes to
172
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., High Yield dluhopisový – otevřený podílový fond, 2013 Annual Report
the Funds statute related mainly to the duty of the asset investment
company to ensure that its statute is in accordance with the amendment to Act 189/2004 Coll., on collective investments (as ensuing
from the changes made by Act 188/2011 Coll.) and Decree No.
193/2011 Coll., on the minimum requisites of the statute and on
the conditions for the use of the name Short-Term Money Market
Fund and Money Market Fund. In light of the change made to the
methodology of classifying mutual funds of the Capital Market
Association, the definition of a bond fund in the introductory Definition of Terms of the Funds statute has been modified, as well as
the wording of certain related provisions.
Investment objectives, the method of investing and the risk profile
of the Fund have not been changed in the amendments referred to
above.
Along with the change made to the statute, information was updated as to the list of funds managed by the Company (Article II
Paragraph 8 of the statute), in particular information on the managing parties of the asset management company (Appendix 1 to
the statute), information added on the performance of the Fund for
2011 (Appendix 2 to the statute), information updated on the total
cost indicators for 2011, and the date on which the statute being
signed was updated.
On the date the changes to the statute came into force the simple
statute of the Fund was replaced by a newly processed document
providing required key information for investors. Such key information for investors was processed in accordance with Commission (EU) Regulation No. 583/2012.
As at 1 February 2013, information on Fund`s 2012 performance
was published within the document Key investors information.
(According to the article 23, section 3 of Council Regulation (EC)
no. 583/2010, the performance must be updated within the Key investors information up to 35 days after the previous calendar year
end.)
The updated text of the Funds statute was approved by the Investment company`s board of directors as at 10 April 2013. The
changes in the statute text related to an update of the list of managed funds, update of the information on the length of professional
experience of Investment company management, addition of information on Fund’s performance and the Fund`s benchmark`s
performance, an update of information on total expense ratio for
2012 and update of the date of the signature. These updates were
not subject to preliminary approval from Czech national bank (according to the section 84 (a), subsection 5 of 189/2004 Coll., Act
on collective investment schemes). The shareholders could access
the updated text of the Statute and Key investors information as of
10 April 2013 on http://www.iscs.cz/, at the distributor’s branches
(Ceska sporitelna, a. s.) and at the Investment company seat.
Legislative change
Act No 240/2013 Coll., On Management Companies and Investment Funds became effective as of 19 August 2013. Rules stated
by this act must be implemented by management companies and
investment funds by 22 July 2014. In 2013, the Fund`s management was subject to the rules of the Act No. 189/2004 Coll., Act
on collective investment schemes. The new rules will be applied
as of 2014.
2. Basis of Preparation
The financial statements have been prepared on the basis of underlying accounting records maintained in accordance with Accounting Act No. 563/1991 Coll., and applicable regulations, decrees and internal standards in compliance with and in the scope
defined in Czech Finance Ministry Regulation No. 501/2002 of
6 November 2002, as subsequently amended, which sets out the
overall framework for the presentation of the financial statements,
and guidelines for the structure and minimum requirements for the
content of the financial statements of banks and certain financial
institutions, and Czech Accounting Standards for Financial Institutions, which establish the accounting principles and policies.
The basis of preparation and the accounting policies have been
constantly applied during both 2013 and 2012.
The Fund is obliged to comply with the regulatory requirements
of the Act.
The financial statements are presented in compliance with general
accounting principles, specifically the accrual principle, the prudence concept and the going concern assumption.
The financial statements contain the balance sheet, profit and loss
account, statement of changes in equity and notes to the financial
statements.
The presentation of the financial statements requires that the
Company makes estimates which have an impact on the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities as at the date of the financial statements as well as expenses and income in the relevant accounting
period. These estimates are based on information available as at
the date of the financial statements and may differ from the actual
results.
As a result of continued market volatility since the start of the
global financial crisis, the Fund may be exposed to increased risk,
specifically due to the uncertainty regarding possible asset impairments and future developments on the market. The financial
statements have been prepared based on the current best estimates
using all relevant and available information as at the date of the
financial statements.
These financial statements are unconsolidated.

tion models based on discounted future cash flows according to
the yield curve calculated using the Reuters and Kondor+ systems.
Explanation Added for Translation into English
Securities are measured at cost upon initial recognition using the
weighted average method. The acquisition cost includes direct
transaction costs related to the acquisition of securities.
These financial statements are presented on the basis of accounting
principles and standards generally accepted in the Czech Republic.
Certain accounting practices applied by the Company that conform with generally accepted accounting principles and standards
in the Czech Republic may not conform with generally accepted
accounting principles in other countries.
3. Accounting Policies
Realised capital gains or losses are recorded in the profit and loss
account within ‘Profit or loss from financial operations’.
Accrued interest relating to assets is included within the total balance of these assets.
Receivables and Payables
Transaction Recognition Date
Purchases and sales of securities are recognised using trade date
accounting provided that the period between the trade date and the
fulfilment of the commitment arising from the contract does not
exceed a period typical for the relevant type of transaction.
The transaction recognition date for derivative contracts is:
a) the date upon which the related contract was entered into;
b) the date when fulfilment was delivered based on the relevant
contract.
The transaction recognition date can also be the date when money
in circulation is paid or received, the date when foreign currency is
purchased or sold, the date when a payment is made, the date when
ownership is acquired or terminated, when a receivable or payable
arises, changes or ceases to exist, when assets move within an accounting entity, and the date when other matters to be included
in the accounting records occur, or when the documents supporting these other matters are available, or when other matters are
a consequence of internal conditions of the accounting entity and/
or special regulations.
Securities
In accordance with the Fund’s strategy, all securities are classified
as securities at fair value through profit or loss. During the accounting period, securities are re-measured at fair value on a daily
basis pursuant to the Finance Ministry Regulation No. 194/2011
Coll., on more detailed regulation of certain rules in collective investment (the “Decree”), as amended.
The securities of the Fund are accounted for as securities at fair
value through profit or loss. The fair value of the securities is determined in accordance with the International Financial Reporting
Standards with an exception, that an average price between the
most favourable binding offer and demand (MID price) is used
for bonds.
Pursuant to the Regulation, securities are valued at the price quoted
on a public market which is adjusted, as appropriate, to reflect the
rules set out in the Regulation. If the market value is unavailable,
the Fund uses a value determined by the Company using valua-
The Fund records receivables arising from its transactions with
securities and other operating receivables at their nominal value,
while receivables from positive fair values of derivatives are recorded at the fair value of the derivatives at the balance sheet date.
Pursuant to the prudence principle, provisions are created based on
the aging of receivables.
The Fund records payables arising from its transactions with securities and operating payables at their nominal value, while payables from negative fair values of derivatives are recorded at the fair
value of the derivatives at the balance sheet date.
Financial Derivatives and Hedging Transactions
In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into hedging contracts with financial derivatives to hedge against foreign currency
exposures associated with its transactions on financial markets.
The method of fair value hedges is applied to hedging derivatives.
The Fund designates certain derivatives as hedges provided that
the following criteria are met:
– the Fund has developed a risk management strategy;
– at the inception of the hedge, the hedging relationship is formally documented, the documentation identifies the hedged
item and the hedging instrument, and it defines the risk that
is being hedged and the approach to establishing whether the
hedge is effective; and
– the hedge is effective, that is, changes in the fair value or cash
flows of the hedged item are almost fully offset by changes in
the fair value or cash flows of the hedging instrument and the
results are within a range of 80 percent to 125 percent.
Nominal values of derivative financial instruments are recognised
in the off-balance sheet accounts. Changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as hedges (see above) are
recorded as income or expense. Changes in the fair value of the
hedging derivatives attributable to the risk hedged are recognised
in the same income or expense accounts as differences from revaluation of a hedged instrument.
174
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., High Yield dluhopisový – otevřený podílový fond, 2013 Annual Report
All financial derivatives are recorded as assets when the fair value
is positive and as liabilities when the fair value is negative. Fair
values are derived from valuation models.
Derivatives that are not designated as hedging derivatives are
treated as trading derivatives. These derivatives are measured at
fair value on a daily basis and gains and losses on revaluation are
posted to expense and income accounts.
Certain derivatives are embedded in compound financial instruments, which comprise the host instrument and the derivative. Pursuant to the applicable regulations, the Fund recognises changes in
assets and liabilities arising from the movements in rates or prices
of securities or changes in exchange rates through expense and income accounts. Given that the assets of the Fund are valued at fair
value and changes of fair values are reported within expenses and
income from derivatives, embedded derivatives are not accounted
for separately.
Dividend income is recognised as at the date when the right to
receive the payment is established (ex-dividend date). Dividend income from domestic securities is presented after withholding tax.
Dividend income from foreign securities is presented gross with
the applicable taxes presented within taxes on foreign dividends
(see note 5.15).
Subsequent Events
The impact of events that occurred between the balance sheet date
and the date of the financial statements preparation is recognized in
the financial statements provided these events provide additional
evidence about conditions that existed at the date of the balance
sheet.
If material events reflecting the facts occurring after the balance
sheet date happened between the balance sheet date and the date
of the financial statements preparation the consequences of these
events are disclosed in the notes to the financial statements but not
recognized in the financial statements.
Income Tax
Under effective tax regulations, the income tax rate applicable to
mutual funds is 5 percent.
4. Risk Management
Deferred Tax
Credit Risk
Deferred tax is provided using the liability method on all temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities reported in the balance sheet and their value for tax purposes.
Deferred tax assets are recognised only up to the amount of probable future taxable income against which the deferred tax asset can
be offset.
In accordance with the Statute and the investment strategy, the
Company establishes rules and policies for selecting investment
instruments such that the overall credit risk profile of allocated investments is consistent with the characteristics of the Fund. New
types of instruments are approved on a case by case basis by the
risk management function together with the specification of limits
for positions pertaining to these instruments. Specific emphasis is
placed on an appropriate rating structure and a relatively detailed
diversification of portfolios (especially in relation to interest bearing securities).
Foreign Currency Translations
Foreign currencies are translated using the exchange rate promulgated by the Czech National Bank as at the relevant date. As at the
balance sheet date, assets and liabilities denominated in foreign
currencies are translated on the same basis.
Foreign exchange rate gains and losses from the daily translation
of assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are posted to expense
or income accounts.
Equity of the Fund
The selling price of participation certificates is calculated as a proportion of the Fund’s equity and the relevant number of participation certificates. Participation certificates are sold to investors
using the selling price determined on a daily basis.
Share Premium
Share premium is the difference between the nominal value of all
participation certificates and their carrying amounts as at the date
of their issue or purchase.
Market Risk
The Fund uses a wide range of tools to eliminate risk exposures
attached to its portfolios. Significant attention is paid to market
risks. Apart from statutory restrictions, the Fund is subject to a set
of internal limits having a direct impact on the FX exposure, interest rate exposure (the modified duration range of the Fund), equity
allocation on individual markets according to their volatility, portfolio rating structure (see above), and other characteristics of the
Fund. The relevant limits are appropriately applied to correspond
with the type of the Fund.
Whenever the Fund purchases new types of instruments, these instruments are first analysed to assess the potential credit risk, as
well as the market risk that the instruments might bring to or help
eliminate from the portfolio. Subsequently, their appropriateness
and, if appropriate, the acceptable proportion of these instruments
in the portfolio is evaluated.
Interest Income and Expense and Dividend Income
Interest income and expense are recognised using the accrual principle.
The level of the Fund’s market risk exposure is measured using
the Value at Risk (“VaR”). With effect from 1 August 2006, the
175
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., High Yield dluhopisový – otevřený podílový fond, 2013 Annual Report
VaR for the Company’s Funds is calculated by the Central Risk
Management Department of Česká spořitelna using the historical
simulation method in the K + KvaR system.
Set out below are relative monthly values of the VaR in percentage
terms for individual types of risks:

The average VaR is calculated as an average of daily VaR values in
years 2013 and 2012 respectively.
The Fund monitors Value at Risk globally and also broken down to
Foreign Currency VaR, Interest Rate VaR and Equity VaR. Based
on the above values, the Fund identifies critical risk segments. This
identification influences the reinvestment process. The limits set
the maximum acceptable VaR for the Fund.
The Equity VaR also reflects the risk related to the holding of mutual funds’ participation certificates (including funds of money
market and bond funds).
Adherence to all the above limits and their effectiveness is monitored and assessed on an ongoing basis. The limits are reviewed,
if necessary.
The portfolio’s risk of unfavourable development of foreign exchange rates, interest rates, and other market factors is hedged, to
an appropriate extent, by financial derivatives. Financial derivatives are traded on the OTC market as this market enables the trading of contracts whose parameters and nature appropriately satisfy
the requirements of a hedge. Portfolios primarily include currency
swaps, currency forwards and interest rate swaps.
Liquidity Risk
Another monitored risk is the liquidity risk. Liquidity risk is a risk
that the Fund will not have enough available resources to meet its
obligations arising from financial contracts. Liquidity is monitored
and managed based on expected cash flows, with appropriate adjustments made to the structure of securities and term placements
portfolios.
Pursuant to the Act, the Company is obliged to repurchase a participation certificate without undue delay but not later than 15 business days from the date when the repurchase right is claimed. Given that the Fund holds securities traded on foreign stock exchanges
which can be realised within a few days, the Fund’s inability to
meet its obligations due to lack of liquidity is unlikely.
Pursuant to Section 12 of the Collective Investment Act, the Company can suspend issues and purchases of the Fund’s participation
certificates for a maximum of three months, if necessary due to the
protection of rights or the participation certificate holders’ interests
protected by law. Issuing and purchasing participation certificates
can be suspended particularly at the end or beginning of the calendar year, in the event of natural disasters, upon very strong fluctuations on financial markets and upon high requirements for the
sales or purchases of participation certificates provided they could
endanger the Fund’s assets.
The quantitative information about the residual maturity of assets
and liabilities is given in Note 5.17.

5.5 Equity
The Fund has no share capital. The nominal value of one participation certificate is CZK 1. The total nominal value of all participation
certificates is posted to ‘Capital funds’.
Share premium arising from the difference between the nominal and selling values of the participation certificates is recorded separately.
The Fund accounts for share premium upon the sale of participation certificates as well as upon their repurchase. The selling price of the
participation certificate is determined as the share of the Fund’s net assets and the number of issued participation certificates.
The value of a participation certificate as at the last trading date in 2013 totaled CZK 1.2534 (2012: CZK 1.2072). This is the most recent
announced value of the participation certificate for the year, for which purchases and repurchases of the participation certificates of the Fund
were undertaken.
The profit for 2013 in the amount of CZK 33,221 thousand will be transferred to the reinvestment fund within ‘Other funds from profit’.
The profit for 2012 in the amount of CZK 90,280 thousand was transferred to the reinvestment fund within ‘Other funds from profit’.

Independent Auditor’s Report
to the Participation certificate holders of Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s.,
BONDINVEST – otevřený podílový fond
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., BONDINVEST – otevřený podílový
fond, which comprise the balance sheet as at 31 December 2013, and the income statement and statement of changes in equity for the year
then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information. For details of Investiční společnost České
spořitelny, a. s., BONDINVEST – otevřený podílový fond, see Note 1 to the financial statements.
Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management of Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the Czech Republic, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the
Act on Auditors and International Standards on Auditing as amended by implementation guidance of the Chamber of Auditors of the Czech
Republic. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance
whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including an assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements,
whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation
and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the
purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness
of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Investiční společnost České
spořitelny, a. s., BONDINVEST – otevřený podílový fond as at 31 December 2013, and its financial performance for the year then ended in

Registered Office
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s.
BONDINVEST – otevřený podílový fond
Prague 6, Evropská 2690/17
Principal Business
The Company collects funds from individuals and legal entities by
issuing participation certificates with the purpose of their collective investment on local and foreign financial markets. No restrictions are placed on the number of participation certificates for issue
and the period for which the Fund is established. The Company reserves the right to temporary halt the issuing of participation certificates for no longer than three months in compliance with the Act.
The participation certificates of the Fund are available both in the
Czech Republic and in other EU member countries.
The Fund is a standard collective investment fund that meets the
requirements of EC legislation. This also entails that the Fund is
subject to supervision which is equivalent to the supervision pursuant to the EU legislation, the level of protection of the participation
certificate holders’ assets is equivalent to the protection provided
to participation certificate holders of other collective investment
funds that fulfil the requirements of Council Directive No. 85/611/
EEC as of 20 December 1985, on the coordination of legal and
administrative regulations regarding collective investment entities
transferable into securities, as amended by Council Directive No.
88/220/EEC, Directive 95/26/ES of the European Parliament and
Council, Directive 2001/107/EC of the European Parliament and
Council and Directive 2001/108/ EC of the European Parliament
and Council. The Company prepares mid-year and annual reports
on the administration of the Fund assets, which provide a true view
of the assets and liabilities, revenues and transactions in the reporting period.
Investment Policy of the Fund
The objective of the Fund’s investment policy is to provide participation certificate holders with a long-term appreciation of their
investments on condition that the overall risk profile of the Fund
minimises the likelihood of losses within two years. The aim is
achieved by investing in a widely diversified portfolio of securities
with fixed or variable interest income and active management of
interest rate risk.
The Fund is a standard fund pursuant to the Collective Investment
Act. The Company fulfils the requirements of the EU legislation
when managing the Fund’s assets.
The finances collected in the Fund can be invested in securities of
the collective investment funds if such collective investment fund
invests in identical classes of assets as a standard fund in compliance with the Act, spreads the risk connected to investments,
repurchases securities which it issued or ensures that the exchange
rate or price of these securities on the regulated market does not
significantly differ from their current amount provided that it has
been authorised by a supervision body of the state where it has its
registered office and falls subject to supervision which the Czech
National Bank considers equivalent to the supervision within the
European Union member states and provided that the cooperation
between the Czech National Bank and this supervision body is ensured and the protection of owners of securities issued by this collective investment fund is equivalent to the protection provided to
owners of securities issued by a collective investment fund fulfilling the requirements of the EC legislation; this collective investment fund must principally comply with provisions on borrowing,
lending and sales of assets for a short time (Sections 33 to 35 of
the Collective Investment Act), separating its assets in account189
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., BONDINVEST – otevřený podílový fond, 2013 Annual Report
ing pursuant to Section 16 (1) of the Collective Investment Act,
prepare and publish mid-year and annual reports, which provide
a true view of assets and liabilities, revenues and transactions in
the reporting period, and its Statute can allow investments up to
the maximum of 10 percent of the value of its assets into securities
issued by another collective investment fund.
The Fund also invests in securities denominated in foreign currencies.
The Fund can also purchase bonds which can be exchanged for
shares or which carry the priority right for the subscription of
shares into the portfolio of the Fund. In the event of claiming the
rights arising from these bonds for the acquisition of shares, the
shares must not exceed 10 percent of the value of the Fund’s assets.
The portfolio of the Fund predominantly includes state bonds with
fixed coupons denominated in CZK, or state bonds of other countries with developed bond markets. The foreign currency risk is
usually hedged. The Fund also invests in corporate bonds, treasury
bills, bank deposits or bonds with embedded derivatives.
The Company can use financial derivatives to effectively manage
the Fund’s assets. Efficient asset management represents transactions for the purpose of decreasing risk, decreasing costs or achieving sufficient income for the Fund provided that the risk is demonstrably low. The exposure from these transactions must be fully
covered by the Fund’s assets so that liabilities arising from these
transactions are fulfilled.
The limits of the Fund are adhered to on the basis of the Act, or
they are regulated in the Fund’s Statute in compliance with the Act.
Change in the Fund’s Statute
Czech National Bank Resolution No. 2012/4691/570, dated 18
May 2012, which came into force on 5 June 2012: The changes
to the Funds statute related mainly to the duty
of the asset investment company to ensure that its statute is in accordance
with the amendment to Act 189/2004 Coll., on collective investments (as ensuing
from the changes made by Act 188/2011
Coll.) and Decree No. 193/2011 Coll.,
on the minimum
requisites of the statute and on the conditions for the use of the
name Short-Term Money Market Fund and Money Market Fund.
Investment objectives, the method of investing and the risk profile
of the Fund have not been changed in the amendments referred to
above.
Along with the change made to the statute, information was updated as to the list
of funds managed by the Company (Article II Paragraph 8 of the statute), in particular information on the
managing parties of the asset management company (Appendix 1
to the statute), information added on the performance of the Fund
for 2011 (Appendix 2 to the statute), information updated on the
total cost indicators for 2011, and the date on which the statute being signed was updated.
On the date the changes to the statute came into force the simple statute of the Fund was replaced by a newly processed document providing required key information
for investors.
Such key information for investors was processed in accordance
with Commission (EU) Regulation No. 583/2012. As at 1 February 2013, information on Fund`s 2012 performance was published
within the document Key investors information. (According to the
article 23, section 3 of Council Regulation (EC) no. 583/2010, the
performance must be updated within the Key investors information up to 35 days from the previous calendar year end.)
The updated text of the Funds statute was approved by the Investment company`s board of directors as at 10 April 2013. The changes in the statute text related to an update of the list of managed
funds, an update of the information on the length of professional
experience of Investment company management, an additional of
information on Fund’s performance and the Fund’s benchmark
performance, an update of information on total expense ratio for
2012 and an update of the date of the signature. These updates
were not subject to preliminary approval from Czech national bank
(according to the section 84 (a), subsection 5 of Act no. 189/2004
Coll., Act on Collective Investment. The shareholders could access
the updated text of the Statute and Key investors information as of
10 April 2013 on http://www.iscs.cz/, at the distributor’s branches
(Ceska sporitelna, a. s.) and at the Investment company seat.
Board of Directors announced a strategic plan to liquidate the mutual fund Bondinvest in 2014 on its meeting on 18 October 2013.
The strategic plan was published on 25 October 2013, within
a period of at least six months in advance (Article XI Paragraph
3 of the Statute) in press, on the Internet at http://www.iscs.cz/ ,
at distributor`s branches (Česká spořitelna, a. s.) and at seat of the
Investment company. In the published notice the Investment company advised the shareholders of the mutual fund Bondinvest to
submit an order to sale of their participation certificates of Bondinvest Fund within six-month period. The reason for the recommendation to sell participation certificates of Bondinvest Fund was the
impossibility to submit orders to sale of participation certificates
after date of liquidation of the Fund. Remaining shareholders of
the Fund Bondinvest will have to wait until the payment of the
share on the liquidation proceeds.
Management Policy
The profit/(loss) is based on the difference between income and
expenses related to the management of the Fund’s assets.
Since 2008 the generated profit has been fully retained by the
Fund, in the reinvestment fund, as a source for further investments,
and increases the participation certificate value. In the event that
the Fund incurs a loss from the Company’s management of assets, the loss is covered from the reinvestment fund which was
created from earnings brought forward. If the reinvestment fund is
not sufficient, the loss must be covered by a reduction in the Fund’s
capital fund.
190
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., BONDINVEST – otevřený podílový fond, 2013 Annual Report
The Fund’s assets must not be used for the provision of loans, borrowings or gifts, to secure a third party’s obligation or to settle
a payable which is not related to the Fund’s management. This
provision does not affect Sections 26 and 27 of the Collective Investment Act.
When managing the Fund’s assets, contracts for the sale of securities and money market instruments, securities issued by other collective investment funds and financial derivatives which are not
owned by the Fund at the moment of concluding the respective
contracts, may not be entered into.
The Company can accept loans and borrowings for the maximum
of six months when managing the Fund’s assets, to cover temporary needs related to the management of the Fund’s assets or
purchases of participation certificates. The volume of the received
loans and borrowings is not allowed to exceed 10 percent of the
value of the Fund’s assets.
Legislative change
Act No 240/2013 Coll., Act on Management Companies and Investment Funds became effective as of 19 August 2013. Rules
stated by this act must be implemented by investment companies
and investment funds by 22 July 2014. In 2013, the Fund`s management was subject to the rules of the Act No. 189/2004 Coll.,
On collective investment schemes. The new rules will be applied
as of 2014.
2. Basis of Preparation
The financial statements have been prepared on the basis of underlying accounting records maintained in accordance with Accounting Act No. 563/1991 Coll., and applicable regulations, decrees and internal standards in compliance with and in the scope
defined in Czech Finance Ministry Regulation No. 501/2002 of
6 November 2002, as subsequently amended, which sets out the
overall framework for the presentation of the financial statements,
and guidelines for the structure and minimum requirements for the
content of the financial statements of banks and certain financial
institutions, and Czech Accounting Standards for Financial Institutions, which establish the accounting principles and policies.
The basis of preparation and the accounting policies have been
consistently applied during both 2013 and 2012.
The Fund is obliged to comply with the regulatory requirements
of the Act.
The financial statements are presented in compliance with general
accounting principles, specifically the accrual principle and the
prudence concept.
Coll., Act on Management Companies and Investment Funds.
The Investment company converts Fund’s assets into cash and
repays its Fund’s debts within six months after liquidation date.
The Investment company submits application for cancellation of
the Fund from a mutual funds list after completion of liquidation
and within three months pays shareholders their shares on the liquidation proceeds (section 376 of Act No. 240/2013 Coll., Act on
Management Companies and Investment Funds).
The financial statements of the Fund were not prepared on a going concern basis for this reason. Applied accounting policies and
methods of valuation of assets and liabilities of the Fund did not
require changes in valuation or classification of assets and liabilities of the Fund as at 31 December 2013.
The financial statements contain the balance sheet, profit and loss
account, statement of changes in equity, and notes to the financial
statements.
The presentation of the financial statements requires that the
Company make estimates which have an impact on the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities as at the date of the financial statements as well as expenses and income in the relevant accounting
period. These estimates are based on information available as at
the date of the financial statements and may differ from the actual
results.
As a result of continued market volatility since the start of the
global financial crisis, the Fund may be exposed to increased risk,
specifically due to the uncertainty regarding possible asset impairments and future developments on the market. The financial
statements have been prepared based on the current best estimates
using all relevant and available information as at the date of the
financial statements.
These financial statements are unconsolidated.
All amounts are stated in thousands of Czech crowns (CZK), unless indicated otherwise.
Explanation Added for Translation into English
These financial statements are presented on the basis of accounting
principles and standards generally accepted in the Czech Republic.
Certain accounting practices applied by the Company that conform with generally accepted accounting principles and standards
in the Czech Republic may not conform with generally accepted
accounting principles in other countries.
3. Accounting Policies
Transaction Recognition Date
Board of Directors has an intention to liquidate the Fund in 2014.
The Investment company is authorised to make decision of liquidation of mutual fund under section 375 (a) Act No. 240/2013
Purchases and sales of securities are recognised using trade date
accounting provided that the period between the trade date and the
191
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., BONDINVEST – otevřený podílový fond, 2013 Annual Report
fulfilment of the commitment arising from the contract does not
exceed a period typical for the relevant type of transaction.
The transaction recognition date for derivative contracts is:
a) the date upon which the related contract was entered into;
b) the date when fulfilment was delivered based on the relevant
contract.
The transaction recognition date can also be the date when money
in circulation is paid or received, the date when foreign currency is
purchased or sold, the date when a payment is made, the date when
ownership is acquired or terminated, when a receivable or payable
arises, changes or ceases to exist, when assets move within an accounting entity, and the date when other matters to be included
in the accounting records occur, or when the documents supporting these other matters are available, or when other matters are
a consequence of internal conditions of the accounting entity and/
or special regulations.
Securities
In accordance with the Fund’s strategy, all securities are classified
as securities at fair value through profit or loss. During the accounting period, securities are re-measured at fair value on a daily
basis pursuant to the Finance Ministry Regulation No. 194/2011
Coll., on more detailed regulation of certain rules in collective investment (the “Decree”), as amended.
The securities of the Fund are accounted for as securities at fair
value through profit or loss. The fair value of the securities is determined in accordance with the International Financial Reporting
Standards with an exception, that an average price between the
most favourable binding offer and demand (MID price) is used
for bonds.
Pursuant to the Regulation, securities are valued at the price quoted
on a public market which is adjusted, as appropriate, to reflect the
rules set out in the Regulation. If the market value is unavailable,
the Fund uses a value determined by the Company using valuation models based on discounted future cash flows according to
the yield curve calculated using the Reuters and Kondor+ systems.
Securities are measured at cost upon initial recognition using the
weighted average method. The acquisition cost includes direct
transaction costs related to the acquisition of securities.
Realised capital gains or losses are recorded in the profit and loss
account within ‘Profit or loss from financial operations’.
Accrued interest relating to assets is included within the total balance of these assets.
Receivables and Payables
The Fund records receivables arising from its transactions with
securities and other operating receivables at their nominal value,
while receivables from positive fair values of derivatives are re-
corded at the fair value of the derivatives at the balance sheet date.
Pursuant to the prudence principle, provisions are created based on
the aging of receivables.
The Fund records payables arising from its transactions with securities and operating payables at their nominal value, while payables from negative fair values of derivatives are recorded at the fair
value of the derivatives at the balance sheet date.
Financial Derivatives and Hedging Transactions
In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into hedging
contracts with financial derivatives to hedge against interest rate
and foreign currency exposures associated with its transactions on
financial markets. The method of fair value hedges is applied to
hedging derivatives.
The Fund designates certain derivatives as hedges provided that
the following criteria are met:
– the Fund has developed a risk management strategy;
– at the inception of the hedge, the hedging relationship is formally documented, the documentation identifies the hedged
item and the hedging instrument, and it defines the risk that
is being hedged and the approach to establishing whether the
hedge is effective; and
– the hedge is effective, that is, changes in the fair value or cash
flows of the hedged item are almost fully offset by changes in
the fair value or cash flows of the hedging instrument and the
results are within a range of 80 percent to 125 percent.
Nominal values of derivative financial instruments are recognised
in the off-balance sheet accounts. Changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as hedges (see above) are
recorded as income or expense. Changes in the fair value of the
hedging derivatives attributable to the risk hedged are recognised
in the same income or expense accounts as differences from revaluation of a hedged instrument.
All financial derivatives are recorded as assets when the fair value
is positive and as liabilities when the fair value is negative. Fair
values are derived from valuation models.
Derivatives that are not designated as hedging derivatives are
treated as trading derivatives. These derivatives are measured at
fair value on a daily basis and gains and losses on revaluation are
posted to expense and income accounts.
Certain derivatives are embedded in compound financial instruments, which comprise the host instrument and the derivative. Pursuant to the applicable regulations, the Fund recognises changes in
assets and liabilities arising from the movements in rates or prices
of securities or changes in exchange rates through expense and income accounts. Given that the assets of the Fund are valued at fair
value and changes of fair values are reported within expenses and
income from derivatives, embedded derivatives are not accounted
for separately.
192
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., BONDINVEST – otevřený podílový fond, 2013 Annual Report
Income Tax
Under effective tax regulations, the income tax rate applicable to
mutual funds is 5 percent.
Deferred Tax
Deferred tax is provided using the liability method on all temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities reported in the balance sheet and their value for tax purposes.
Deferred tax assets are recognised only up to the amount of probable future taxable income against which the deferred tax asset can
be offset.
Foreign Currency Translations
Foreign currencies are translated using the exchange rate promulgated by the Czech National Bank as at the relevant date. As at the
balance sheet date, assets and liabilities denominated in foreign
currencies are translated on the same basis.
Foreign exchange rate gains and losses from the daily translation
of assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are posted to expense
or income accounts.
Capital Funds
The selling price of participation certificates is calculated as a proportion of the Fund’s net asset value and the relevant number of
participation certificates. Participation certificates are sold to investors using the selling price determined on a daily basis.
events are disclosed in the notes to the financial statements but not
recognized in the financial statements.
4. Risk Management
Credit Risk
In accordance with the Statute and the investment strategy, the
Company establishes rules and policies for selecting investment
instruments such that the overall credit risk profile of allocated investments is consistent with the characteristics of the Fund. New
types of instruments are approved on a case by case basis by the
risk management function together with the specification of limits
for positions pertaining to these instruments. Specific emphasis is
placed on an appropriate rating structure and a relatively detailed
diversification of portfolios (especially in relation to interest bearing securities).
Market Risk
The Fund uses a wide range of tools to eliminate risk exposures
attached to its portfolios. Significant attention is paid to market
risks. Apart from statutory restrictions, the Fund is subject to a set
of internal limits having a direct impact on the FX exposure, interest rate exposure (the modified duration range of the Fund), equity
allocation on individual markets according to their volatility, portfolio rating structure (see above), and other characteristics of the
Fund. The relevant limits are appropriately applied to correspond
with the type of the Fund.
Share Premium
Share premium is the difference between the nominal value of all
participation certificates and their carrying amounts as at the date
of their issue or purchase.
Interest Income and Expense and Dividend
Income
Interest income and expense are recognised using the accrual principle.
Dividend income is recognised as at the date when the right to
receive the payment is established (ex-dividend date). Dividend income from domestic securities is presented after withholding tax.
Dividend income from foreign securities is presented gross with
the applicable taxes presented within taxes on foreign dividends
(see note 5.14).
Whenever the Fund purchases new types of instruments, these instruments are first analysed to assess the potential credit risk, as
well as the market risk that the instruments might bring to or help
eliminate from the portfolio. Subsequently, their appropriateness
and, if appropriate, the acceptable proportion of these instruments
in the portfolio is evaluated.
The level of the Fund’s market risk exposure is measured using
the Value at Risk (“VaR”). With effect from 1 August 2006, the
VaR for the Company’s Funds is calculated by the Central Risk
Management Department of Česká spořitelna using the historical
simulation method in the K + KvaR system.
Set out below are relative monthly values of the VaR in percentage
terms for individual types of risks:
Subsequent Events
The impact of events that occurred between the balance sheet date
and the date of the financial statements preparation is recognized in
the financial statements provided these events provide additional
evidence about conditions that existed at the date of the balance
sheet.

Global VaR

Interest rate VaR
Equity VaR
The average VaR is calculated as average of daily VaR values in
years 2013 and 2012 respectively.
The Fund monitors Value at Risk globally and also broken down to
Foreign Currency VaR, Interest Rate VaR and Equity VaR. Based
on the above values, the Fund identifies critical risk segments. This
identification influences the reinvestment process. The limits set
the maximum acceptable VaR for the Fund.
The Equity VaR also reflects the risk related to the holding of mutual funds’ participation certificates (including funds of money
market and bond funds).
Adherence to all the above limits and their effectiveness is monitored and assessed on an ongoing basis. The limits are reviewed,
if necessary.
The portfolio’s risk of unfavourable development of foreign exchange rates, interest rates, and other market factors is hedged, to
an appropriate extent, by financial derivatives. Financial derivatives are traded on the OTC market as this market enables the trading of contracts whose parameters and nature appropriately satisfy
the requirements of a hedge. Portfolios primarily include currency
swaps, currency forwards and interest rate swaps.
Liquidity Risk
Another monitored risk is the liquidity risk. Liquidity risk is a risk
that the Fund will not have enough available resources to meet its
obligations arising from financial contracts. Liquidity is monitored
and managed based on expected cash flows, with appropriate adjustments made to the structure of securities and term placements
portfolios.
Pursuant to the Act, the Company is obliged to repurchase a participation certificate without undue delay but not later than 15 business days from the date when the repurchase right is claimed. Given that the Fund holds securities traded on foreign stock exchanges
which can be realised within a few days, the Fund’s inability to
meet its obligations due to lack of liquidity is unlikely.
The Company is obliged to repurchase a participation certificate
without undue delay but not later than 15 business days from the
date when the repurchase right is claimed, if the purchase of a participation certificate is not suspended.
Pursuant to Section 12 of the Collective Investment Act, the Company can suspend issues and purchases of the Fund’s participation
certificates for a maximum of three months, if necessary due to the
protection of rights or the participation certificate holders’ interests
protected by law. Issuing and purchasing participation certificates
can be suspended particularly at the end or beginning of the calendar year, in the event of natural disasters, upon very strong fluctuations on financial markets and upon high requirements for the
sales or purchases of participation certificates provided they could
endanger the Fund’s assets.
The quantitative information about the residual maturity of assets
and liabilities is given in Note 5.16.

‘Other receivables’ mainly include receivables from coupons of CZK 556 thousand (2012: CZK 556 thousand).
5.4 Equity
The Fund has no share capital. The nominal value of participation certificates is CZK 5,000 and CZK 50,000. The total nominal value of all
participation certificates is posted to ‘capital funds’.
Share premium arising from the difference between the nominal and selling values of the participation certificates is recorded separately.
The Fund accounts for share premium upon the sale of participation certificates as well as upon their repurchase.
The selling price of the participation certificate is determined as the share of the Fund’s net asset value and the number of issued participation
certificates whereby, for the calculation purposes, one participation certificate with the nominal value of CZK 50,000 is treated as ten pieces.
The value of a participation certificate as at the last trading date in 2013 totalled CZK 6,105.95 (2012: CZK 6,133.50) with respect to
a participation certificate with a nominal value of CZK 5,000. This is the most recent announced value of the participation certificate for the
year, for which purchases and repurchases of the participation certificates of the Fund were undertaken. This value minimally differs from
the accounting value of the participation certificate at the balance sheet date due to additional recognition of some items within the financial
statements.
In line with the Fund’s Statute, the loss for 2013 in the amount of CZK 301 thousand will be covered by reduction the reinvestment fund
within ‘Other funds from profit’.
In line with the Fund’s Statute, the profit for 2012 in the amount of CZK 7,455 thousand was transferred to the reinvestment fund within
‘Other funds from profit’.

Independent Auditor’s Report
to the Participation certificate holders of Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s.,
SPOROTREND – otevřený podílový fond
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., SPOROTREND – otevřený podílový fond, which comprise the balance sheet as at 31 December 2013, and the income statement and statement of changes in equity for the
year then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information. For details of Investiční společnost
České spořitelny, a. s., SPOROTREND – otevřený podílový fond, see Note 1 to the financial statements.
Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management of Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the Czech Republic, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the
Act on Auditors and International Standards on Auditing as amended by implementation guidance of the Chamber of Auditors of the Czech
Republic. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance
whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including an assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements,
whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation
and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the
purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness
of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Investiční společnost České
spořitelny, a. s., SPOROTREND – otevřený podílový fond, as at 31 December 2013, and its financial performance for the year then ended
in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the Czech Republic.

Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., SPOROTREND – otevřený podílový fond, 2013 Annual Report
Notes to the Financial Statements
for the year ended 31 December 2013
1. Organisation and Description of
Business
The Company reserves the right to temporary halt the issuing of
participation certificates for no longer than three months in compliance with the Act.
Formation and Description of the Business
Investiční společnost České spořitelny a.s., SPOROTREND –
otevřený podílový fond (hereinafter the “Fund” or “ISČS, a. s. –
Sporotrend OPF”) is an accounting unit without legal entity status,
formed by Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s. (hereinafter the “Company”) as an open-ended mutual fund under Investment Companies and Funds Act No. 248/1992 Coll., based upon
the Resolution of the Ministry of Finance of the Czech Republic
dated 13 November 1997. The Fund commenced its activities on
31 March 1998.
Based on the Company’s request dated 16 July 1999, the Securities
Commission resolved, on 21 September 1999, to merge two openended mutual funds, namely Investiční společnost Čechoinvest
and Investiční společnost Moravoinvest, with the open-ended mutual fund Investiční společnost SPOROTREND, under Section 35f
(3) of Act No. 248/1992 Coll. The merger was performed as at 28
December 1999.
The participation certificates of the Fund are available both in the
Czech Republic and in other EU member countries.
Investment Policy of the Fund
The objective of the investment policy is to provide participation
certificate holders with a long-term appreciation of participation
certificates primarily through investments in shares of companies
in European Union candidate or new member states. The Company
operates on capital markets with the aim of appreciating the assets in the Fund by making gains from differences between selling
prices and acquisition prices and dividend income from securities
held by the Fund.
The Fund may invest in securities of collective investment index
funds, if such a collective investment fund invests in the same
types of assets, distributes the risk connected to investments and
meets other obligations set by the Act.
Pursuant to a concluded contract, Česká spořitelna, a. s. acts as the
depository of the Fund.
The Company can use financial derivatives to effectively manage
the Fund’s assets.
The Fund is managed by the Company. In compliance with the
Collective Investment Act No. 189/2004 Coll. (hereinafter the
“Act”), the Company is responsible for the management of the assets of the Fund, which involves the administration and handling
of the assets.
The portfolio of the mutual fund could also be expanded by purchasing other investment instruments approved for collective investments of standard funds under the Act.
The Fund is a standard fund in compliance with the Act and meets
the requirements of EU legislation.
According to the classification binding for the members of the
Capital Market Association (hereinafter the “AKAT CR”) as at the
date of the approval of this Statute, the Fund can be defined as an
equity fund.
The limits of the Fund are adhered to on the basis of the Act, or
they are regulated in the Fund’s Statute in compliance with the Act.
The Company can use financial derivatives to effectively manage
the Fund’s assets. Efficient asset management represents transactions for the purpose of decreasing risk, decreasing costs or achieving sufficient income for the Fund provided that the risk is demonstrably low. The exposure from these transactions must be fully
covered by the Fund’s assets so that liabilities arising from these
transactions are fulfilled.

Management Policy
Principal Business
The generated profit has been fully retained by the Fund, in the reinvestment fund, as a source for further investments, and increases
the participation certificate value. In the event that the Fund incurs
a loss from the Company’s management of assets, the loss is covered from the reinvestment fund which was created from earnings
The Company collects funds from individuals and legal entities for
the Fund by issuing participation certificates with the purpose of
their collective investment on local and foreign financial markets.
No restrictions are placed on the number of participation certificates for issue and the period for which the Fund is established.
The profit/(loss) is based on the difference between income and
expenses related to the management of the Fund’s assets.
206
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., SPOROTREND – otevřený podílový fond, 2013 Annual Report
brought forward. If the reinvestment fund is not sufficient, the loss
must be covered by a reduction in the Fund’s capital fund.
The Fund’s assets must not be used for the provision of loans, borrowings or gifts, to secure a third party’s obligation or to settle
a payable which is not related to the Fund’s management. This
provision does not affect Sections 26 and 27 of the Collective Investment Act.
When managing the Fund’s assets, contracts for the sale of securities and money market instruments, securities issued by other collective investment funds and financial derivatives which are not
owned by the Fund at the moment of concluding the respective
contracts, may not be entered into.
The Company can accept loans and borrowings for the maximum
of six months when managing the Fund’s assets, to cover temporary needs related to the management of the Fund’s assets or
purchases of participation certificates. The volume of the received
loans and borrowings is not allowed to exceed 10 percent of the
value of the Fund’s assets.
Change in the Statute
As at 1 February 2013, information on Fund`s 2012 performance
was published within the document Key investors information.
(According to the article 23, section 3 of Council Regulation (EC)
no. 583/2010, the performance must be updated within the Key investors information up to 35 days after the previous calendar year
end.)
The updated text of the Funds statute was approved by the Investment company`s board of directors as at 10 April 2013. The
changes in the statute text related to an update of the list of managed funds, update of the information on the length of professional
experience of Investment company management, addition of information on Fund’s performance and the Fund`s benchmark`s
performance, an update of information on total expense ratio for
2012 and update of the date of the signature. These updates were
not subject to preliminary approval from Czech national bank (according to the section 84 (a), subsection 5 of 189/2004 Coll., Act
on collective investment schemes). The shareholders could access
the updated text of the Statute and Key investors information as of
10 April 2013 on http://www.iscs.cz/, at the distributor’s branches
(Ceska sporitelna, a. s.) and at the Investment company seat.
2. Basis of Preparation
The financial statements have been prepared on the basis of underlying accounting records maintained in accordance with Accounting Act No. 563/1991 Coll., and applicable regulations, decrees and internal standards in compliance with and in the scope
defined in Czech Finance Ministry Regulation No. 501/2002 of
6 November 2002, as subsequently amended, which sets out the
overall framework for the presentation of the financial statements,
and guidelines for the structure and minimum requirements for the
content of the financial statements of banks and certain financial
institutions, and Czech Accounting Standards for Financial Institutions, which establish the accounting principles and policies.
The basis of preparation and the accounting policies have been
consistently applied during both 2013 and 2012.
The Fund is obliged to comply with the regulatory requirements
of the Act.
The financial statements are based on the accrual principle, that is,
transactions and other events are recognised in the accounting period in which they occur, regardless of when the related monetary
flow arises. The financial statements are presented in compliance
with general accounting principles, specifically the accrual principle, the prudence concept and the going concern assumption.
The financial statements contain the balance sheet, profit and loss
account, statement of changes in equity, and notes to the financial
statements.
The presentation of the financial statements requires that the
Company makes estimates which have an impact on the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities as at the date of the financial statements as well as expenses and income in the relevant accounting
period. These estimates are based on information available as at
the date of the financial statements and may differ from the actual
results.
As a result of continued market volatility since the start of the
global financial crisis, the Fund may be exposed to increased risk,
specifically due to the uncertainty regarding possible asset impairments and future developments on the market. The financial
statements have been prepared based on the current best estimates
using all relevant and available information as at the date of the
financial statements.
Legislative change
Act No 240/2013 Coll., Act on Management Companies and Investment Funds became effective as of 19 August 2013. Rules
stated by this act must be implemented by management companies
and investment funds by 22 July 2014. In 2013, the Fund`s management was subject to the rules of the Act No. 189/2004 Coll., Act
on collective investment schemes. The new rules will be applied
as of 2014.
These financial statements are unconsolidated.
All amounts are stated in thousands of Czech crowns (CZK), unless indicated otherwise.
Explanation Added for Translation into English
These financial statements are presented on the basis of accounting
principles and standards generally accepted in the Czech Republic.
Certain accounting practices applied by the Company that con207
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., SPOROTREND – otevřený podílový fond, 2013 Annual Report
form with generally accepted accounting principles and standards
in the Czech Republic may not conform with generally accepted
accounting principles in other countries.
3. Accounting Policies
Realised capital gains or losses are recorded in the profit and loss
account within ‘Profit or loss from financial operations’.
Accrued interest relating to assets is included within the total balance of these assets.
Receivables and Payables
Transaction Recognition Date
Purchases and sales of securities are recognised using trade date
accounting provided that the period between the trade date and the
fulfilment of the commitment arising from the contract does not
exceed a period typical for the relevant type of transaction.
The transaction recognition date for derivative contracts is:
a) the date upon which the related contract was entered into;
b) the date when fulfilment was delivered based on the relevant
contract.
The transaction recognition date can also be the date when money
in circulation is paid or received, the date when foreign currency is
purchased or sold, the date when a payment is made, the date when
ownership is acquired or terminated, when a receivable or payable
arises, changes or ceases to exist, when assets move within an accounting entity, and the date when other matters to be included
in the accounting records occur, or when the documents supporting these other matters are available, or when other matters are
a consequence of internal conditions of the accounting entity and/
or special regulations.
Securities
In accordance with the Fund’s strategy, all securities are classified
as securities at fair value through profit or loss. During the accounting period, securities are re-measured at fair value on a daily
basis pursuant to the Finance Ministry Regulation No. 194/2011
Coll., on more detailed regulation of certain rules in collective investment (the “Decree”), as amended.
The securities of the Fund are accounted for as securities at fair
value through profit or loss. The fair value of the securities is determined in accordance with the International Financial Reporting
Standards with an exception, that an average price between the
most favourable binding offer and demand (MID price) is used
for bonds.
Pursuant to the Regulation, securities are valued at the price quoted
on a public market which is adjusted, as appropriate, to reflect the
rules set out in the Regulation. If the market value is unavailable,
the Fund uses a value determined by the Company using valuation models based on discounted future cash flows according to
the yield curve calculated using the Reuters and Kondor+ systems.
Securities are measured at cost upon initial recognition using the
weighted average method. The acquisition cost includes direct
transaction costs related to the acquisition of securities.
The Fund records receivables arising from its transactions with
securities and other operating receivables at their nominal value,
while receivables from positive fair values of derivatives are recorded at the fair value of the derivatives at the balance sheet date.
Pursuant to the prudence principle, provisions are created based on
the aging of receivables.
The Fund records payables arising from its transactions with securities and operating payables at their nominal value, while payables from negative fair values of derivatives are recorded at the fair
value of the derivatives at the balance sheet date.
Financial Derivatives and Hedging Transactions
In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into hedging
contracts with financial derivatives to hedge against interest rate
and foreign currency exposures associated with its transactions on
financial markets. The method of fair value hedges is applied to
hedging derivatives.
The Fund designates certain derivatives as hedges provided that
the following criteria are met:
– the Fund has developed a risk management strategy;
– at the inception of the hedge, the hedging relationship is formally documented, the documentation identifies the hedged
item and the hedging instrument, and it defines the risk that
is being hedged and the approach to establishing whether the
hedge is effective; and
– the hedge is effective, that is, changes in the fair value or cash
flows of the hedged item are almost fully offset by changes in
the fair value or cash flows of the hedging instrument and the
results are within a range of 80 percent to 125 percent.
Nominal values of derivative financial instruments are recognised
in the off-balance sheet accounts. Changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as hedges (see above) are
recorded as income or expense. Changes in the fair value of the
hedging derivatives attributable to the risk hedged are recognised
in the same income or expense accounts as differences from revaluation of a hedged instrument.
All financial derivatives are recorded as assets when the fair value
is positive and as liabilities when the fair value is negative. Fair
values are derived from valuation models.
Derivatives that are not designated as hedging derivatives are
treated as trading derivatives. These derivatives are measured at
fair value on a daily basis and gains and losses on revaluation are
posted to derivative expense and income accounts.
208
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., SPOROTREND – otevřený podílový fond, 2013 Annual Report
Certain derivatives are embedded in compound financial instruments, which comprise the host instrument and the derivative. Pursuant to the applicable regulations, the Fund recognises changes in
assets and liabilities arising from the movements in rates or prices
of securities or changes in exchange rates through expense and income accounts. Given that the assets of the Fund are valued at fair
value and changes of fair values are reported within expenses and
income from derivatives, embedded derivatives are not accounted
for separately.
Share Premium
Repo Transactions
Dividend income is recognised as at the date when the right to
receive the payment is established (ex-dividend date). Dividend income from domestic securities is presented after withholding tax.
Dividend income from foreign securities is presented gross with
the applicable taxes presented within taxes on foreign dividends
(see note 5.17.).
Within its business, the Fund enters into repo transactions with financial assets, representing a pair of transactions (a sell and a buy)
where both transactions (a spot sale and a forward repurchase) are
agreed at the same time, irrespective of whether one or two underlying agreements exist.
The sold securities continue to be held in the Fund’s portfolio (an
economic aspect) and valued. On a custodian asset account, a decrease in securities (a legal aspect) is recorded upon the settlement of sale and an increase is recorded upon the date of buy back
settlement. Daily interest income is recognised using the accrual
principle.
Income Tax
Under effective tax regulations, the income tax rate applicable to
mutual funds is 5 percent.
Deferred Tax
Deferred tax is provided using the liability method on all temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities reported in the balance sheet and their value for tax purposes.
Deferred tax assets are recognised only up to the amount of probable future taxable income against which the deferred tax asset can
be offset.
Foreign Currency Translations
Foreign currencies are translated using the exchange rate promulgated by the Czech National Bank as at the relevant date. As at the
balance sheet date, assets and liabilities denominated in foreign
currencies are translated on the same basis.
Foreign exchange rate gains and losses from the daily translation
of assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are posted to expense
or income accounts.
Share premium is the difference between the nominal value of all
participation certificates and their carrying amounts as at the date
of their issue or purchase.
Interest Income and Expense and Dividend
Income
Interest income and expense are recognised using the accrual principle.
Subsequent Events
The impact of events that occurred between the balance sheet date
and the date of the financial statements preparation is recognized in
the financial statements provided these events provide additional
evidence about conditions that existed at the date of the balance
sheet.
If material events reflecting the facts occurring after the balance
sheet date happened between the balance sheet date and the date
of the financial statements preparation the consequences of these
events are disclosed in the notes to the financial statements but not
recognized in the financial statements.
4. Risk Management
Credit Risk
In accordance with the Statute and the investment strategy, the
Company establishes rules and policies for selecting investment
instruments such that the overall credit risk profile of allocated investments is consistent with the characteristics of the Fund. New
types of instruments are approved on a case by case basis by the
risk management function together with the specification of limits
for positions pertaining to these instruments. Specific emphasis is
placed on an appropriate rating structure and a relatively detailed
diversification of portfolios (especially in relation to interest bearing securities).
Market Risk
Capital Funds
The selling price of participation certificates is calculated as a proportion of the Fund’s net assets and the relevant number of participation certificates. Participation certificates are sold to investors
using the selling price determined on a daily basis.
The Fund uses a wide range of tools to eliminate risk exposures
attached to its portfolios. Significant attention is paid to market
risks. Apart from statutory restrictions, the Fund is subject to a set
of internal limits having a direct impact on the FX exposure, interest rate exposure (the modified duration range of the Fund), equity
allocation on individual markets according to their volatility, portfolio rating structure (see above), and other characteristics of the
Fund. The relevant limits are appropriately applied to correspond
with the type of the Fund.
209
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., SPOROTREND – otevřený podílový fond, 2013 Annual Report
Whenever the Fund purchases new types of instruments, these instruments are first analysed to assess the potential credit risk, as
well as the market risk that the instruments might bring to or help
eliminate from the portfolio. Subsequently, their appropriateness
and, if appropriate, the acceptable proportion of these instruments
in the portfolio is evaluated.
The level of the Fund’s market risk exposure is measured using
the Value at Risk (“VaR”). With effect from 1 August 2006, the
VaR for the Company’s Funds is calculated by the Central Risk
Management Department of Česká spořitelna using the historical
simulation method in the K + KvaR system.
Adherence to all the above limits and their effectiveness is monitored and assessed on an ongoing basis. The limits are reviewed,
if necessary.
The portfolio’s risk of unfavourable development of foreign exchange rates, interest rates, and other market factors is hedged, to
an appropriate extent, by financial derivatives. Financial derivatives are traded on the OTC market as this market enables the trading of contracts whose parameters and nature appropriately satisfy
the requirements of a hedge. Portfolios primarily include currency
swaps, currency forwards and interest rate swaps.
Liquidity Risk

The average VaR is calculated as an average of daily VaR values in
years 2013 and 2012 respectively.
The Fund monitors Value at Risk globally and also broken down to
Foreign Currency VaR, Interest Rate VaR and Equity VaR. Based
on the above values, the Fund identifies critical risk segments. This
identification influences the reinvestment process. The limits set
the maximum acceptable VaR for the Fund.
The Equity VaR also reflects the risk related to the holding of mutual funds’ participation certificates (including funds of money
market and bond funds).
Another monitored risk is the liquidity risk. Liquidity risk is a risk
that the Fund will not have enough available resources to meet its
obligations arising from financial contracts. Liquidity is monitored
and managed based on expected cash flows, with appropriate adjustments made to the structure of securities and term placements
portfolios.
Pursuant to the Act, the Company is obliged to repurchase a participation certificate without undue delay but not later than 15 business days from the date when the repurchase right is claimed. Given that the Fund holds securities traded on foreign stock exchanges
which can be realised within a few days, the Fund’s inability to
meet its obligations due to lack of liquidity is unlikely.
Pursuant to Section 12 of the Collective Investment Act, the Company can suspend issues and purchases of the Fund’s participation
certificates for a maximum of three months, if necessary due to the
protection of rights or the participation certificate holders’ interests
protected by law. Issuing and purchasing participation certificates
can be suspended particularly at the end or beginning of the calendar year, in the event of natural disasters, upon very strong fluctuations on financial markets and upon high requirements for the
sales or purchases of participation certificates provided they could
endanger the Fund’s assets.
The quantitative information about the residual maturity of assets
and liabilities is given in Note 5.19.

As at 31 December 2013, provisions were created against receivables from securities trading in the amount of CZK 4,762 thousand (2012:
CZK 4,762 thousand) and against other receivables in the amount of CZK 7,814 thousand (2012: CZK 5,821 thousand).

5.5 Equity
The Fund has no share capital. The nominal value of one participation certificate is CZK 1. The total nominal value of all participation
certificates is posted to ‘Capital funds’.
Share premium arising from the difference between the nominal and selling values of the participation certificates is recorded separately.
The Fund accounts for share premium upon the sale of participation certificates as well as upon their repurchase.
The selling price of the participation certificate is determined as the share of the Fund’s net assets and the number of issued participation
certificates.
The value of a participation certificate as at the last trading date in 2013 totalled CZK 1.1177 (2012: CZK 1.1761). This is the most recent
announced value of the participation certificate for the year, for which purchases and repurchases of the participation certificates of the Fund
were undertaken. This value differs insignificantly from the carrying value of a participation certificate as at 31 December 2013 because of
the addition of some items during the financial statements preparation.

GLOBAL STOCKS FF – otevřený podílový fond
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., GLOBAL STOCKS FF – otevřený
podílový fond, which comprise the balance sheet as at 31 December 2013, and the income statement and statement of changes in equity for
the year then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information. For details of Investiční společnost
České spořitelny, a. s., GLOBAL STOCKS FF – otevřený podílový fond, see Note 1 to the financial statements.
Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management of Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the Czech Republic, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the
Act on Auditors and International Standards on Auditing as amended by implementation guidance of the Chamber of Auditors of the Czech
Republic. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance
whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including an assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements,
whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation
and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the
purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness
of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Investiční společnost České
spořitelny, a. s., GLOBAL STOCKS FF – otevřený podílový fond, as at 31 December 2013, and its financial performance for the year then

Notes to the Financial Statements
for the year ended 31 December 2012
1. Organisation and Description of Business
Formation and Description of the Business
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., GLOBAL STOCKS
FF – otevřený podílový fond z fondů (until 1 May 2005 Investiční
společnost České spořitelny, a. s. – GLOBALTREND FF OPF),
hereinafter the “Fund”, is an accounting unit without legal entity status, formed by Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s.
(hereinafter the “Company”) as an open-ended mutual fund under
the Act No. 248/1992 Coll., based upon the Resolution of the Securities Commission dated 19 July 2000. The Fund commenced its
activities on 1 September 2000.
Pursuant to a concluded contract, Česká spořitelna, a. s. acts as the
depository of the Fund.
The Fund is managed by the Company. In compliance with the
Collective Investment Act No. 189/2004 Coll. (hereinafter the
“Act”), the Company is responsible for the management of the assets of the Fund, which involves the administration and handling
of the assets.
The Fund is a standard fund in compliance with the Act and meets
the requirements of EU legislation.
According to the classification binding for the members of the
Capital Market Association (hereinafter the “AKAT CR”) as at the
date of the approval of this Statute, the Fund can be defined as
a fund of funds.
Registered Office
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s.
GLOBAL STOCKS FF – otevřený podílový fond
Prague 6, Evropská 2690/17
Principal Business
The Company collects funds from individuals and legal entities for
the Fund by issuing participation certificates with the purpose of
their collective investment on local and foreign financial markets.
No restrictions are placed on the number of participation certificates for issue and the period for which the Fund is established.
The Company reserves the right to temporary halt the issuing of
participation certificates for no longer than three months in compliance with the Act.
The participation certificates of the Fund are available both in the
Czech Republic and in other EU member countries.
Investment Policy of the Fund
The objective of the investment policy is to provide participation
certificate holders with a long-term appreciation of participation
certificates primarily through investments in a globally distributed
portfolio of securities of collective investment equity funds and
shares. The Company operates on capital markets with the aim of
appreciating the assets in the Fund by making gains from differences between selling prices and acquisition prices and dividend
and interest income from securities held by the Fund.
Finances collected in the Fund are invested predominantly in securities of collective investment funds if such collective investment
funds distribute the risk connected to investments and meet other
obligations set by the Act.
The limits of the Fund are adhered to on the basis of the Act, or
they are regulated in the Fund’s Statute in compliance with the Act.
The Fund uses financial derivatives to hedge against currency exposures.
The Company can use financial derivatives to effectively manage
the Fund’s assets. Efficient asset management represents transactions for the purpose of decreasing risk, decreasing costs or achieving sufficient income for the Fund provided that the risk is demonstrably low. The exposure from these transactions must be fully
covered by the Fund’s assets so that liabilities arising from these
transactions are fulfilled.
Management Policy
The profit/(loss) is based on the difference between income and
expenses related to the management of the Fund’s assets.
The generated profit has been fully retained by the Fund, in the reinvestment fund, as a source for further investments, and increases
the participation certificate value. In the event that the Fund incurs
a loss from the Company’s management of assets, the loss is covered from the reinvestment fund which was created from earnings
brought forward. If the reinvestment fund is not sufficient, the loss
must be covered by a reduction in the Fund’s capital fund.
The Fund’s assets must not be used for the provision of loans, borrowings or gifts, to secure a third party’s obligation or to settle
a payable which is not related to the Fund’s management. This
provision does not affect Sections 26 and 27 of the Collective Investment Act.
When managing the Fund’s assets, contracts for the sale of securities and money market instruments, securities issued by other collective investment funds and financial derivatives which are not
224

owned by the Fund at the moment of concluding the respective
contracts, may not be entered into.
institutions, and Czech Accounting Standards for Financial Institutions, which establish the accounting principles and policies.
The Company can accept loans and borrowings for the maximum
of six months when managing the Fund’s assets, to cover temporary needs related to the management of the Fund’s assets or
purchases of participation certificates. The volume of the received
loans and borrowings must not exceed 10 percent of the value of
the Fund’s assets.
The basis of preparation and the accounting policies have been
consistently applied during both 2013 and 2012.
Change in the Fund’s Statute
As at 1 February 2013, information on Fund`s 2012 performance
was published within the document Key investors information.
(According to the article 23, section 3 of Council Regulation (EC)
no. 583/2010, the performance must be updated within the Key investors information up to 35 days after the previous calendar year
end.)
The updated text of the Funds statute was approved by the Investment company`s board of directors as at 10 April 2013. The
changes in the statute text related to an update of the list of managed funds, update of the information on the length of professional
experience of Investment company management, addition of information on Fund’s performance and the Fund`s benchmark`s
performance, an update of information on total expense ratio for
2012 and update of the date of the signature. These updates were
not subject to preliminary approval from Czech national bank (according to the section 84 (a), subsection 5 of 189/2004 Coll., On
collective investment schemes). The shareholders could access the
updated text of the Statute and Key investors information as of
10 April 2013 on http://www.iscs.cz/, at the distributor’s branches
(Ceska sporitelna, a. s.) and at the Investment company seat.
Legislative change
Act No 240/2013 Coll., On Management Companies and Investment Funds became effective as of 19 August 2013. Rules stated
by this act must be implemented by management companies and
investment funds by 22 July 2014. In 2013, the Fund`s management was subject to the rules of the Act No. 189/2004 Coll., On
collective investment schemes. The new rules will be applied as
of 2014.
2. Basis of Preparation
The financial statements have been prepared on the basis of underlying accounting records maintained in accordance with Accounting Act No. 563/1991 Coll., and applicable regulations, decrees and internal standards in compliance with and in the scope
defined in Czech Finance Ministry Regulation No. 501/2002 of
6 November 2002, as subsequently amended, which sets out the
overall framework for the presentation of the financial statements,
and guidelines for the structure and minimum requirements for the
content of the financial statements of banks and certain financial
The Fund is obliged to comply with the regulatory requirements
of the Act.
The financial statements are presented in compliance with general
accounting principles, specifically the accrual principle, the prudence concept and the going concern assumption.
The financial statements contain the balance sheet, profit and loss
account, statement of changes in equity, and notes to the financial
statements.
The presentation of the financial statements requires that the
Company makes estimates which have an impact on the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities as at the date of the financial statements as well as expenses and income in the relevant accounting
period. These estimates are based on information available as at
the date of the financial statements and may differ from the actual
results.
As a result of continued market volatility since the start of the
global financial crisis, the Fund may be exposed to increased risk,
specifically due to the uncertainty regarding possible asset impairments and future developments on the market. The financial
statements have been prepared based on the current best estimates
using all relevant and available information as at the date of the
financial statements.
These financial statements are unconsolidated.
All amounts are stated in thousands of Czech crowns (CZK), unless indicated otherwise.
Explanation Added for Translation into English
These financial statements are presented on the basis of accounting
principles and standards generally accepted in the Czech Republic.
Certain accounting practices applied by the Company that conform with generally accepted accounting principles and standards
in the Czech Republic may not conform with generally accepted
accounting principles in other countries.
3. Accounting Policies
Transaction Recognition Date
Purchases and sales of securities are recognised using trade date
accounting provided that the period between the trade date and the
fulfilment of the commitment arising from the contract does not
exceed a period typical for the relevant type of transaction.
225
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., GLOBAL STOCKS FF – otevřený podílový fond, 2013 Annual Report
The transaction recognition date for derivative contracts is:
a) the date upon which the related contract was entered into;
b) the date when performance was delivered based on the relevant
contract.
The Fund records payables arising from its transactions with securities and operating payables at their nominal value, while payables from negative fair values of derivatives are recorded at the fair
value of the derivatives at the balance sheet date.
The transaction recognition date can also be the date when money
in circulation is paid or received, the date when foreign currency is
purchased or sold, the date when a payment is made, the date when
ownership is acquired or terminated, when a receivable or payable
arises, changes or ceases to exist, when assets move within an accounting entity, and the date when other matters to be included
in the accounting records occur, or when the documents supporting these other matters are available, or when other matters are
a consequence of internal conditions of the accounting entity and/
or special regulations.
Financial Derivatives and Hedging Transactions
Securities
In accordance with the Fund’s strategy, all securities are classified
as securities at fair value through profit or loss. During the accounting period, securities are re-measured at fair value on a daily
basis pursuant to the Finance Ministry Regulation No. 194/2011
Coll., on more detailed regulation of certain rules in collective investment (the “Decree”), as amended.
The securities of the Fund are accounted for as securities at fair
value through profit or loss. The fair value of the securities is determined in accordance with the International Financial Reporting
Standards with an exception, that an average price between the
most favourable binding offer and demand (MID price) is used
for bonds.
Pursuant to the Regulation, securities are valued at the price quoted
on a public market which is adjusted, as appropriate, to reflect the
rules set out in the Regulation. If the market value is unavailable,
the Fund uses a value determined by the Company using valuation models based on discounted future cash flows according to
the yield curve calculated using the Reuters and Kondor+ systems.
Securities are measured at cost upon initial recognition using the
weighted average method. The acquisition cost includes direct
transaction costs related to the acquisition of securities.
Realised capital gains or losses are recorded in the profit and loss
account within ‘Profit or loss from financial operations’.
Accrued interest relating to assets is included within the total balance of these assets.
Receivables and Payables
The Fund records receivables arising from its transactions with
securities and other operating receivables at their nominal value,
while receivables from positive fair values of derivatives are recorded at the fair value of the derivatives at the balance sheet date.
Pursuant to the prudence principle, provisions are created based on
the aging of receivables.
In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into hedging
contracts with financial derivatives to hedge against interest rate
and foreign currency exposures associated with its transactions on
financial markets. The method of fair value hedges is applied to
hedging derivatives.
The Fund designates certain derivatives as hedges provided that
the following criteria are met:
– the Fund has developed a risk management strategy;
– at the inception of the hedge, the hedging relationship is formally documented, the documentation identifies the hedged
item and the hedging instrument, and it defines the risk that
is being hedged and the approach to establishing whether the
hedge is effective; and
– the hedge is effective, that is, changes in the fair value or cash
flows of the hedged item are almost fully offset by changes in
the fair value or cash flows of the hedging instrument and the
results are within a range of 80 percent to 125 percent.
Nominal values of derivative financial instruments are recognised
in the off-balance sheet accounts. Changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as hedges (see above) are
recorded as income or expense. Changes in the fair value of the
hedging derivatives attributable to the risk hedged are recognised
in the same income or expense accounts as differences from revaluation of a hedged instrument.
All financial derivatives are recorded as assets when the fair value
is positive and as liabilities when the fair value is negative. Fair
values are derived from the valuation models.
Derivatives that are not designated as hedging derivatives are
treated as trading derivatives. These derivatives are measured at
fair value on a daily basis and gains and losses on revaluation are
posted to derivative expense and income accounts.
Certain derivatives are embedded in compound financial instruments, which comprise the host instrument and the derivative. Pursuant to the applicable regulations, the Fund recognises changes in
assets and liabilities arising from the movements in rates or prices
of securities or changes in exchange rates through expense and income accounts. Given that the assets of the Fund are valued at fair
value and changes of fair values are reported within expenses and
income from derivatives, embedded derivatives are not accounted
for separately.
Income Tax
Under effective tax regulations, the income tax rate applicable to
mutual funds is 5 percent.

Deferred Tax
Deferred tax is provided using the liability method on all temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities reported in the balance sheet and their value for tax purposes.
Deferred tax assets are recognised only up to the amount of probable future taxable income against which the deferred tax asset can
be offset.
Foreign Currency Translations
Foreign currencies are translated using the exchange rate promulgated by the Czech National Bank as at the relevant date. As at the
balance sheet date, assets and liabilities denominated in foreign
currencies are translated on the same basis.
Foreign exchange rate gains and losses from the daily translation
of assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are posted to expenses
or income accounts.
Equity
The selling price of participation certificates is calculated as a proportion of the Fund’s net assets and the relevant number of participation certificates. Participation certificates are sold to investors
using the selling price determined on a daily basis.
4. Risk Management
Credit Risk
In accordance with the Statute and the investment strategy, the
Company establishes rules and policies for selecting investment
instruments such that the overall credit risk profile of allocated investments is consistent with the characteristics of the Fund. New
types of instruments are approved on a case by case basis by the
risk management function together with the specification of limits
for positions pertaining to these instruments. Specific emphasis is
placed on an appropriate rating structure and a relatively detailed
diversification of portfolios (especially in relation to interest bearing securities).
Market Risk
The Fund uses a wide range of tools to eliminate risk exposures
attached to its portfolios. Significant attention is paid to market
risks. Apart from statutory restrictions, the Fund is subject to a set
of internal limits having a direct impact on the FX exposure, interest rate exposure (the modified duration range of the Fund), equity
allocation on individual markets according to their volatility, portfolio rating structure (see above), and other characteristics of the
Fund. The relevant limits are appropriately applied to correspond
with the type of the Fund.
Share Premium
Share premium is the difference between the nominal value of all
participation certificates and their carrying amounts as at the date
of their issue or purchase.
Interest Income and Expense and Dividend
Income
Interest income and expense are recognised using the accrual principle.
Dividend income is recognised as at the date when the right to
receive the payment is established (ex-dividend date). Dividend income from domestic securities is presented after withholding tax.
Dividend income from foreign securities is presented gross with
the applicable taxes presented within Tax on foreign dividends (see
note 5.15.).
Whenever the Fund purchases new types of instruments, these instruments are first analysed to assess the potential credit risk, as
well as the market risk that the instruments might bring to or help
eliminate from the portfolio. Subsequently, their appropriateness
and, if appropriate, the acceptable proportion of these instruments
in the portfolio is evaluated.
The level of the Fund’s market risk exposure is measured using
the Value at Risk (“VaR”). With effect from 1 August 2006, the
VaR for the Company’s Funds is calculated by the Central Risk
Management Department of Česká spořitelna using the historical
simulation method in the K + KvaR system.
Set out below are relative monthly values of the VaR in percentage
terms for individual types of risks:
Subsequent Events
The impact of events that occurred between the balance sheet date
and the date of the financial statements preparation is recognized in
the financial statements provided these events provide additional
evidence about conditions that existed at the date of the balance
sheet.
If material events reflecting the facts occurring after the balance
sheet date happened between the balance sheet date and the date
of the financial statements preparation the consequences of these
events are disclosed in the notes to the financial statements but not
recognized in the financial statements.

Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., GLOBAL STOCKS FF – otevřený podílový fond, 2013 Annual Report
The average VaR is calculated as an average of daily VaR values in
years 2013 and 2012 respectively.
The Fund monitors Value at Risk globally and also broken down to
Foreign Currency VaR, Interest Rate VaR and Equity VaR. Based
on the above values, the Fund identifies critical risk segments. This
identification influences the reinvestment process. The limits set
the maximum acceptable VaR for the Fund.
The Equity VaR also reflects the risk related to the holding of mutual funds’ participation certificates (including funds of money
market and bond funds).
Adherence to all the above limits and their effectiveness is monitored and assessed on an ongoing basis. The limits are reviewed,
if necessary.
The portfolio’s risk of unfavourable development of foreign exchange rates, interest rates, and other market factors is hedged, to
an appropriate extent, by financial derivatives. Financial derivatives
are traded on the OTC market as this market enables the trading of
contracts whose parameters and nature appropriately satisfy the requirements of a hedge. Portfolios primarily include currency swaps.
Liquidity Risk
obligations arising from financial contracts. Liquidity is monitored
and managed based on expected cash flows, with appropriate adjustments made to the structure of securities and term placements
portfolios.
Pursuant to the Act, the Company is obliged to repurchase a participation certificate without undue delay but not later than 15 business days from the date when the repurchase right is claimed. Given that the Fund holds securities traded on foreign stock exchanges
which can be realised within a few days, the Fund’s inability to
meet its obligations due to lack of liquidity is unlikely.
Pursuant to Section 12 of the Collective Investment Act, the Company can suspend issues and purchases of the Fund’s participation
certificates for a maximum of three months, if necessary due to the
protection of rights or the participation certificate holders’ interests
protected by law. Issuing and purchasing participation certificates
can be suspended particularly at the end or beginning of the calendar year, in the event of natural disasters, upon very strong fluctuations on financial markets and upon high requirements for the
sales or purchases of participation certificates provided they could
endanger the Fund’s assets.
The quantitative information about the residual maturity of assets
and liabilities is given in Note 5.17.
Another monitored risk is the liquidity risk. Liquidity risk is a risk
that the Fund will not have enough available resources to meet its

5.5 Equity
The Fund has no share capital. The nominal value of one participation certificate is CZK 1. The total nominal value of all participation
certificates is posted to ‘Capital funds’.
Share premium arising from the difference between the nominal and selling values of the participation certificates is recorded separately.
The Fund accounts for share premium upon the sale of participation certificates as well as upon their repurchase.
The selling price of the participation certificate is determined as the share of the Fund’s net assets and the number of issued participation
certificates.
The value of a participation certificate as at the last trading date in 2013 totalled CZK 0.5473 (2012: CZK 0.4275). This is the most recent
announced value of the participation certificate for the year, for which purchases and repurchases of the participation certificates of the Fund
were undertaken.
The profit for 2013 in the amount of CZK 93,249 thousand will be transferred to the reinvestment fund within ‘Other funds from profit’.
In line with the Fund’s Statue, the profit for 2012 in the amount of CZK 37,302 was transferred to the reinvestment fund.

Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management of Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the Czech Republic, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the
Act on Auditors and International Standards on Auditing as amended by implementation guidance of the Chamber of Auditors of the Czech
Republic. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance
whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including an assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements,
whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation
and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the
purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness
of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Investiční společnost České
spořitelny, a. s., TOP STOCKS – otevřený podílový fond, as at 31 December 2013, and its financial performance for the year then ended in

Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., TOP STOCKS – otevřený podílový fond, 2013 Annual Report
Notes to the Financial Statements
for the year ended 31 December 2013
1. Organisation and Description
of Business
The participation certificates of the Fund are available both in the
Czech Republic and in other EU member countries.
Formation and Description of the Business
Investment Policy of the Fund
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., TOP STOCKS –
otevřený podílový fond (hereinafter the “Fund” or “ISČS, a. s. –
TOP STOCKS OPF”) is an accounting entity without legal entity
status, formed by Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s.
(hereinafter the “Company”) in compliance with the Collective Investment Act No. 189/2004 Coll. (hereinafter the “Act”).
The objective of the investment policy is to provide participation
certificate holders with a long-term appreciation of participation
certificates through investments in a concentrated portfolio of
shares traded on equity markets that meet conditions stated in the
Act, denominated in the respective currencies.
The objective is met by stock picking.
Following Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s.’s request of
14 March 2006, the Securities Commission (with effect from 1
April 2006 the Czech National Bank) approved the formation of
a fund entitled Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s. – TOP
STOCKS – otevřený podílový fond. The decision came into effect
on 4 July 2006. The Fund commenced its activities on 28 August
2006.
Pursuant to a concluded contract, Česká spořitelna, a. s. acts as the
depository of the Fund.
The Fund is managed by the Company. In compliance with the Act
No. 189/2004 Coll., the Company is responsible for the management of the assets of the Fund, which involves the administration
and handling of the assets.
The Fund is a standard fund in compliance with the Act and meets
the requirements of EU legislation.
According to the classification binding for the members of the
Capital Market Association (hereinafter the “AKAT CR”) as at the
date of the approval of this Statute, the Fund can be defined as an
equity fund.

Prague 6, Evropská 2690/17
Principal Business
The Company collects funds from individuals and legal entities for
the Fund by issuing participation certificates with the purpose of
their collective investment on local and foreign financial markets.
No restrictions are placed on the number of participation certificates for issue and the period for which the Fund is established.
The Company reserves the right to temporary halt the issuing of
participation certificates for no longer than three months in compliance with the Act.
The Fund carries currency exposure arising from investments in
local currencies.
The Fund’s portfolio primarily consists of shares. Higher concentration of the portfolio is due to the fact that the Fund’s portfolio is
usually represented by approximately 25 different investment ideas.
One investment idea usually means investment in one picked share.
In addition to the shares, available funds are invested in treasury
bills and bank deposits. The Fund’s portfolio can be expanded by
purchasing other investment instruments allowed by the Act for
collective investment of a standard fund.
The limits of the Fund are adhered to on the basis of the Act, or
they are regulated in the Fund’s Statute in compliance with the Act.
The Fund uses financial derivatives to hedge against currency exposures.
The Company can use financial derivatives to effectively manage
the Fund’s assets. Efficient asset management represents transactions for the purpose of decreasing risk, decreasing costs or achieving sufficient income for the Fund provided that the risk is demonstrably low. The exposure from these transactions must be fully
covered by the Fund’s assets so that liabilities arising from these
transactions are fulfilled.
The Company can accept loans and borrowings for the maximum
of six months when managing the Fund’s assets, to cover temporary needs related to the management of the Fund’s assets or
purchases of participation certificates. The volume of the received
loans and borrowings must not exceed 10 percent of the value of
the Fund’s assets.
Change in the Fund’s Statute
Czech National Bank Resolution No. 2012/4588/570, dated 18
May 2012, which came into force on 5 June 2012: The changes to
the Funds statute related mainly to the duty of the asset investment
240
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., TOP STOCKS – otevřený podílový fond, 2013 Annual Report
company to ensure that its statute is in accordance with the amendment to Act 189/2004 Coll., on collective investments (as ensuing
from the changes made by Act 188/2011 Coll.) and Decree No.
193/2011 Coll., on the minimum requisites of the statute and on
the conditions for the use of the name Short-Term Money Market
Fund and Money Market Fund. In light of the change made to the
methodology of classifying mutual funds of the Capital Market
Association, the definition of a bond fund in the introductory Definition of Terms of the Funds statute has been modified, as well as
the wording of certain related provisions.
Investment objectives, the method of investing and the risk profile
of the Fund have not been changed in the amendments referred to
above.
Along with the change made to the statute, information was updated as to the list of funds managed by the Company (Article II
Paragraph 8 of the statute), in particular information on the managing parties of the asset management company (Appendix 1 to the
statute), information added on the performance of the mutual fund
for 2011 (Appendix 2 to the statute), information updated on the
total cost indicators for 2011, and the date on which the statute being signed was updated.
On the date the changes to the statute came into force the simple
statute of the Fund was replaced by a newly processed document
providing required key information for investors. Such key information for investors was processed in accordance with Commission (EU) Regulation No. 583/2012.
As at 1 February 2013, information on Fund`s 2012 performance
was published within the document Key investors information.
(According to the article 23, section 3 of Council Regulation (EC)
no. 583/2010, the performance must be updated within the Key investors information up to 35 days after the previous calendar year
end.)
The updated text of the Funds statute was approved by the Investment company`s board of directors as at 10 April 2013. The
changes in the statute text related to an update of the list of managed funds, update of the information on the length of professional
experience of Investment company management, addition of information on Fund’s performance and the Fund`s benchmark`s
performance, an update of information on total expense ratio for
2012 and update of the date of the signature. These updates were
not subject to preliminary approval from Czech national bank (according to the section 84 (a), subsection 5 of 189/2004 Coll., On
collective investment schemes). The shareholders could access the
updated text of the Statute and Key investors information as of
10 April 2013 on http://www.iscs.cz/, at the distributor’s branches
(Ceska sporitelna, a. s.) and at the Investment company seat.
Legislative change
Act No 240/2013 Coll., On Management Companies and Investment Funds became effective as of 19 August 2013. Rules stated
by this act must be implemented by investment companies and investment funds by 22 July 2014. In 2013, the Fund`s management
was subject to the rules of the Act No. 189/2004 Coll., On collective investment schemes. The new rules will be applied as of 2014.
2. Basis of Preparation
The financial statements have been prepared on the basis of underlying accounting records maintained in accordance with Accounting Act No. 563/1991 Coll., and applicable regulations, decrees and internal standards in compliance with and in the scope
defined in Czech Finance Ministry Regulation No. 501/2002 of
6 November 2002, as subsequently amended, which sets out the
overall framework for the presentation of the financial statements,
and guidelines for the structure and minimum requirements for the
content of the financial statements of banks and certain financial
institutions, and Czech Accounting Standards for Financial Institutions, which establish the accounting principles and policies.
The basis of preparation and the accounting policies have been
consistently applied during both 2013 and 2012.
The Fund is obliged to comply with the regulatory requirements
of the Act.
The financial statements are based on the accrual principle, that is,
transactions and other events are recognised in the accounting period in which they occur, regardless of when the related monetary
flow arises.
The financial statements are presented in compliance with general
accounting principles, specifically the accrual principle, the prudence concept and the going concern assumption.
The financial statements contain the balance sheet, profit and loss
account, statement of changes in equity, and notes to the financial
statements.
The presentation of the financial statements requires that the
Company makes estimates which have an impact on the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities as at the date of the financial statements as well as expenses and income in the relevant accounting
period. These estimates are based on information available as at
the date of the financial statements and may differ from the actual
results.
As a result of continued market volatility since the start of the
global financial crisis, the Fund may be exposed to increased risk,
specifically due to the uncertainty regarding possible asset impairments and future developments on the market. The financial
statements have been prepared based on the current best estimates
using all relevant and available information as at the date of the
financial statements.
241
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., TOP STOCKS – otevřený podílový fond, 2013 Annual Report
These financial statements are unconsolidated.
All amounts are stated in thousands of Czech crowns (CZK), unless indicated otherwise.
Explanation Added for Translation into English
These financial statements are presented on the basis of accounting
principles and standards generally accepted in the Czech Republic.
Certain accounting practices applied by the Company that conform with generally accepted accounting principles and standards
in the Czech Republic may not conform with generally accepted
accounting principles in other countries.
3. Accounting Policies
rules set out in the Regulation. If the market value is unavailable,
the Fund uses a value determined by the Company using valuation models based on discounted future cash flows according to
the yield curve calculated using the Reuters and Kondor+ systems.
Securities are measured at cost upon initial recognition using the
weighted average method. The acquisition cost includes direct
transaction costs related to the acquisition of securities.
Realised capital gains or losses are recorded in the profit and loss
account within ‘Profit or loss from financial operations’.
Accrued interest relating to assets is included within the total balance of these assets.
Receivables and Payables
Transaction Recognition Date
Purchases and sales of securities are recognised using trade date
accounting provided that the period between the trade date and the
fulfilment of the commitment arising from the contract does not
exceed a period typical for the relevant type of transaction.
The transaction recognition date for derivative contracts is:
a) the date upon which the related contract was entered into;
b) the date when fulfilment was delivered based on the relevant
contract.
The transaction recognition date can also be the date when money
in circulation is paid or received, the date when foreign currency is
purchased or sold, the date when a payment is made, the date when
ownership is acquired or terminated, when a receivable or payable
arises, changes or ceases to exist, when assets move within an accounting entity, and the date when other matters to be included
in the accounting records occur, or when the documents supporting these other matters are available, or when other matters are
a consequence of internal conditions of the accounting entity and/
or special regulations.
Securities
In accordance with the Fund’s strategy, all securities are classified
as securities at fair value through profit or loss. During the accounting period, securities are re-measured at fair value on a daily
basis pursuant to the Finance Ministry Regulation No. 194/2011
Coll., on more detailed regulation of certain rules in collective investment (the “Decree”), as amended.
The securities of the Fund are accounted for as securities at fair
value through profit or loss. The fair value of the securities is determined in accordance with the International Financial Reporting
Standards with an exception, that an average price between the
most favourable binding offer and demand (MID price) is used
for bonds.
Pursuant to the Regulation, securities are valued at the price quoted
on a public market which is adjusted, as appropriate, to reflect the
The Fund records receivables arising from its transactions with
securities and other operating receivables at their nominal value,
while receivables from positive fair values of derivatives are recorded at the fair value of the derivatives at the balance sheet date.
Pursuant to the prudence principle, provisions are created based on
aging of receivables.
The Fund records payables arising from its transactions with securities and operating payables at their nominal value, while payables from negative fair values of derivatives are recorded at the fair
value of the derivatives at the balance sheet date.
Financial Derivatives and Hedging Transactions
In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into hedging contracts with financial derivatives to hedge against foreign currency
exposures associated with its transactions on financial markets.
The method of fair value hedges is applied to hedging derivatives.
The Fund designates certain derivatives as hedges provided that
the following criteria are met:
– the Fund has developed a risk management strategy;
– at the inception of the hedge, the hedging relationship is formally documented, the documentation identifies the hedged
item and the hedging instrument, and it defines the risk that
is being hedged and the approach to establishing whether the
hedge is effective; and
– the hedge is effective, that is, changes in the fair value or cash
flows of the hedged item are almost fully offset by changes in
the fair value or cash flows of the hedging instrument and the
results are within a range of 80 percent to 125 percent.
Nominal values of derivative financial instruments are recognised
in the off-balance sheet accounts. Changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as hedges (see above) are
recorded as income or expense. Changes in the fair value of the
hedging derivatives attributable to the risk hedged are recognised
in the same income or expense accounts as differences from revaluation of a hedged instrument.
242
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., TOP STOCKS – otevřený podílový fond, 2013 Annual Report
All financial derivatives are recorded as assets when the fair value
is positive and as liabilities when the fair value is negative. Fair
values are derived from valuation models.
Interest Income and Expense and Dividend
Income
Derivatives that are not designated as hedging derivatives are
treated as trading derivatives. These derivatives are measured at
fair value on a daily basis and gains and losses on revaluation are
posted to expense and income accounts.
Dividend income is recognised as at the date when the right to
receive the payment is established (ex-dividend date). Dividend income from domestic securities is presented after withholding tax.
Dividend income from foreign securities is presented gross with
the applicable taxes presented within taxes on foreign dividends
(see note 5.16).
Certain derivatives are embedded in compound financial instruments, which comprise the host instrument and the derivative. Pursuant to the applicable regulations, the Fund recognises changes in
assets and liabilities arising from the movements in rates or prices
of securities or changes in exchange rates through expense and income accounts. Given that the assets of the Fund are valued at fair
value and changes of fair values are reported within expenses and
income from derivatives, embedded derivatives are not accounted
for separately.
Income Tax
Under effective tax regulations, the income tax rate applicable to
mutual funds is 5 percent.
Interest income and expense are recognised using the accrual principle.
Subsequent Events
The impact of events that occurred between the balance sheet date
and the date of the financial statements preparation is recognized in
the financial statements provided these events provide additional
evidence about conditions that existed at the date of the balance
sheet.
If material events reflecting the facts occurring after the balance
sheet date happened between the balance sheet date and the date
of the financial statements preparation the consequences of these
events are disclosed in the notes to the financial statements but not
recognized in the financial statements.
Deferred Tax
Deferred tax is provided using the liability method on all temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities reported in the balance sheet and their value for tax purposes.
Deferred tax assets are recognised only up to the amount of probable future taxable income against which the deferred tax asset can
be offset.
Foreign Currency Translations
Foreign currencies are translated using the exchange rate promulgated by the Czech National Bank as at the relevant date. As at the
balance sheet date, assets and liabilities denominated in foreign
currencies are translated on the same basis.
Foreign exchange rate gains and losses from the daily translation
of assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are posted to expense
or income accounts.
Capital Funds
The selling price of participation certificates is calculated as a proportion of the Fund’s net assets and the relevant number of participation certificates. Participation certificates are sold to qualified
investors using the selling price determined on a daily basis.
Share Premium
Share premium is the difference between the nominal value of all
participation certificates and their carrying amounts as at the date
of their issue or purchase.
4. Risk Management
Credit Risk
In accordance with the Statute and the investment strategy, the
Company establishes rules and policies for selecting investment
instruments such that the overall credit risk profile of allocated investments is consistent with the characteristics of the Fund. New
types of instruments are approved on a case by case basis by the
risk management function together with the specification of limits
for positions pertaining to these instruments. Specific emphasis is
placed on an appropriate rating structure and a relatively detailed
diversification of portfolios (especially in relation to bearing securities).
Market Risk
The Fund uses a wide range of tools to eliminate risk exposures
attached to its portfolios. Significant attention is paid to market
risks. Apart from statutory restrictions, the Fund is subject to a set
of internal limits having a direct impact on the FX exposure, interest rate exposure (the modified duration range of the Fund), equity
allocation on individual markets according to their volatility, portfolio rating structure (see above), and other characteristics of the
Fund. The relevant limits are appropriately applied to correspond
with the type of the Fund.
Whenever the Fund purchases new types of instruments, these instruments are first analysed to assess the potential credit risk, as
well as the market risk that the instruments might bring to or help
eliminate from the portfolio. Subsequently, their appropriateness
243
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., TOP STOCKS – otevřený podílový fond, 2013 Annual Report
and, if appropriate, the acceptable proportion of these instruments
in the portfolio is evaluated.
The level of the Fund’s market risk exposure is measured using
the Value at Risk (“VaR”). With effect from 1 August 2006, the
VaR for the Company’s Funds is calculated by the Central Risk
Management Department of Česká spořitelna using the historical
simulation method in the K + KvaR system.

Equity VaR
The average VaR is calculated as average of daily VaR values in
years 2013 and 2012 respectively.
The Fund monitors Value at Risk globally and also broken down to
Foreign Currency VaR, Interest Rate VaR and Equity VaR. Based
on the above values, the Fund identifies critical risk segments. This
identification influences the reinvestment process. The limits set
the maximum acceptable VaR for the Fund.
The Equity VaR also reflects the risk related to the holding of mutual funds’ participation certificates (including funds of money
market and bond funds).
Adherence to all the above limits and their effectiveness is monitored and assessed on an ongoing basis. The limits are reviewed,
if necessary.
The portfolio’s risk of unfavourable development of foreign exchange rates, interest rates, and other market factors is hedged, to
an appropriate extent, by financial Derivatives. Financial derivatives are traded on the OTC market as this market enables the trading of contracts whose parameters and nature appropriately satisfy
the requirements of a hedge. Portfolios primarily include currency
swaps, currency forwards and interest rate swaps.
Liquidity Risk
Another monitored risk is the liquidity risk. Liquidity risk is a risk
that the Fund will not have enough available resources to meet its
obligations arising from financial contracts. Liquidity is monitored
and managed based on expected cash flows, with appropriate adjustments made to the structure of securities and term placements
portfolios.
Pursuant to the Act, the Company is obliged to repurchase a participation certificate without undue delay but not later than 15 business days from the date when the repurchase right is claimed. Given that the Fund holds securities traded on foreign stock exchanges
which can be realised within a few days, the Fund’s inability to
meet its obligations due to lack of liquidity is unlikely.
Pursuant to Section 12 of the Collective Investment Act, the Company can suspend issues and purchases of the Fund’s participation
certificates for a maximum of three months, if necessary due to the
protection of rights or the participation certificate holders’ interests
protected by law. Issuing and purchasing participation certificates
can be suspended particularly at the end or beginning of the calendar year, in the event of natural disasters, upon very strong fluctuations on financial markets and upon high requirements for the
sales or purchases of participation certificates provided they could
endanger the Fund’s assets.
The quantitative information about the residual maturity of assets
and liabilities is given in Note 5.18.

5.5 Equity
The Fund has no share capital. The nominal value of one participation certificate is CZK 1. The total nominal value of all participation
certificates is posted to ‘Capital funds’.
Share premium arising from the difference between the nominal and selling values of the participation certificates is recorded separately.
The Fund accounts for share premium upon the sale of participation certificates as well as upon their repurchase. The selling price of the
participation certificate is determined as the share of the Fund’s net assets and the number of issued participation certificates.
The value of a participation certificate as at the last trading date in 2013 totalled CZK 1.7408 (2012: CZK 1.2998). This is the most recent
announced value of the participation certificate for the year, for which purchases and repurchases of the participation certificates of the Fund
were undertaken.
The profit for 2013 in the amount of CZK 602,821 thousand will be transferred to the reinvestment fund within ‘Other funds from profit’.
In line with the Fund’s Statute, the profit for 2012 in the amount of CZK 226,028 thousand was transferred to the reinvestment fund within
‘Other funds from profit’.

Management of Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the Czech Republic, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the
Act on Auditors and International Standards on Auditing as amended by implementation guidance of the Chamber of Auditors of the Czech
Republic. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance
whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including an assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements,
whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation
and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the
purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness
of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Investiční společnost České
spořitelny, a. s., KONZERVATIVNÍ MIX FF – otevřený podílový fond, as at 31 December 2013, and its financial performance for the year

statute of the Fund was replaced by a newly processed document
providing required key information for investors. Such key information for investors was processed in accordance with Commission (EU) Regulation No. 583/2012.
As at 1 February 2013, information on Fund`s 2012 performance

Legislative change
Act No 240/2013 Coll., Act on Management Companies and Investment Funds became effective as of 19 August 2013. Rules
stated by this act must be implemented by investment companies
and investment funds by 22 July 2014. In 2013, the Fund`s management was subject to the rules of the Act No. 189/2004 Coll., Act
on collective investment schemes. The new rules will be applied
as of 2014.
2. Basis of Preparation
The financial statements have been prepared on the basis of underlying accounting records maintained in accordance with Accounting Act No. 563/1991 Coll., and applicable regulations, decrees and internal standards in compliance with and in the scope
defined in Czech Finance Ministry Regulation No. 501/2002 of
6 November 2002, as subsequently amended, which sets out the
overall framework for the presentation of the financial statements,
and guidelines for the structure and minimum requirements for the
content of the financial statements of banks and certain financial
institutions, and Czech Accounting Standards for Financial Institutions, which establish the accounting principles and policies.
The basis of preparation and the accounting policies have been
consistently applied during both 2013 and 2012.
The Fund is obliged to comply with the regulatory requirements
of the Act.
The financial statements are presented in compliance with general
accounting principles, specifically the accrual principle, the prudence concept and the going concern assumption.
The financial statements contain the balance sheet, profit and loss
account, statement of changes in equity, and notes to the financial
statements.
The presentation of the financial statements requires that the
Company makes estimates which have an impact on the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities as at the date of the financial statements as well as expenses and income in the relevant accounting
period. These estimates are based on information available as at
the date of the financial statements and may differ from the actual
results.
As a result of continued market volatility since the start of the
global financial crisis, the Fund may be exposed to increased risk,
specifically due to the uncertainty regarding possible asset impairments and future developments on the market. The financial
statements have been prepared based on the current best estimates
using all relevant and available information as at the date of the
financial statements.
These financial statements are unconsolidated.
All amounts are stated in thousands of Czech crowns (CZK), unless indicated otherwise.
Explanation Added for Translation into English
These financial statements are presented on the basis of accounting
principles and standards generally accepted in the Czech Republic.
Certain accounting practices applied by the Company that conform with generally accepted accounting principles and standards
in the Czech Republic may not conform with generally accepted
accounting principles in other countries.
3. Accounting Policies
Transaction Recognition Date
Purchases and sales of securities are recognised using trade date
accounting provided that the period between the trade date and the
257
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., KONZERVATIVNÍ MIX FF – otevřený podílový fond, 2013 Annual Report
fulfilment of the commitment arising from the contract does not
exceed a period typical for the relevant type of transaction.
The transaction recognition date for derivative contracts is:
a) the date upon which the related contract was entered into;
b) the date when fulfilment was delivered based on the relevant
contract.
The transaction recognition date can also be the date when money
in circulation is paid or received, the date when foreign currency is
purchased or sold, the date when a payment is made, the date when
ownership is acquired or terminated, when a receivable or payable
arises, changes or ceases to exist, when assets move within an accounting entity, and the date when other matters to be included
in the accounting records occur, or when the documents supporting these other matters are available, or when other matters are
a consequence of internal conditions of the accounting entity and/
or special regulations.
Securities
In accordance with the Fund’s strategy, all securities are classified
as securities at fair value through profit or loss. During the accounting period, securities are re-measured at fair value on a daily
basis pursuant to the Finance Ministry Regulation No. 194/2011
Coll., on more detailed regulation of certain rules in collective investment (the “Decree”), as amended.
The securities of the Fund are accounted for as securities at fair
value through profit or loss. The fair value of the securities is determined in accordance with the International Financial Reporting
Standards with an exception, that an average price between the
most favourable binding offer and demand (MID price) is used
for bonds.
Pursuant to the Regulation, securities are valued at the price quoted
on a public market which is adjusted, as appropriate, to reflect the
rules set out in the Regulation. If the market value is unavailable,
the Fund uses a value determined by the Company using valuation models based on discounted future cash flows according to
the yield curve calculated using the Reuters and Kondor+ systems.
Securities are measured at cost upon initial recognition using the
weighted average method. The acquisition cost includes direct
transaction costs related to the acquisition of securities.
Realised capital gains or losses are recorded in the profit and loss
account within ‘Profit or loss from financial operations’.
Accrued interest relating to assets is included within the total balance of these assets.
Receivables and Payables
The Fund records receivables arising from its transactions with
securities and other operating receivables at their nominal value,
while receivables from positive fair values of derivatives are re-
corded at the fair value of the derivatives at the balance sheet date.
Pursuant to the prudence principle, provisions are created based on
the aging of receivables.
The Fund records payables arising from its transactions with securities and operating payables at their nominal value, while payables from negative fair values of derivatives are recorded at the fair
value of the derivatives at the balance sheet date.
Financial Derivatives and Hedging Transactions
In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into hedging
contracts with financial derivatives to hedge against interest rate
and foreign currency exposures associated with its transactions on
financial markets. The method of fair value hedges is applied to
hedging derivatives.
The Fund designates certain derivatives as hedges provided that
the following criteria are met:
– the Fund has developed a risk management strategy;
– at the inception of the hedge, the hedging relationship is formally documented,
the documentation identifies the hedged item and the hedging instrument, and it defines the risk
that is being hedged and the approach to establishing whether
the hedge is effective; and
– the hedge is effective, that is, changes in the fair value or cash
flows of the hedged item are almost fully offset by changes in
the fair value or cash flows of the hedging instrument and the
results are within a range of 80 percent to 125 percent.
Nominal values of derivative financial instruments are recognised
in the off-balance sheet accounts. Changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as hedges (see above) are
recorded as income or expense. Changes in the fair value of the
hedging derivatives attributable to the risk hedged are recognised
in the same income or expense accounts as differences from revaluation of a hedged instrument.
All financial derivatives are recorded as assets when the fair value
is positive and as liabilities when the fair value is negative. Fair
values are derived from valuation models.
Derivatives that are not designated as hedging derivatives are
treated as trading derivatives. These derivatives are measured at
fair value on a daily basis and gains and losses on revaluation are
posted to expense and income accounts.
Certain derivatives are embedded in compound financial instruments, which comprise the host instrument and the derivative. Pursuant to the applicable regulations, the Fund recognises changes in
assets and liabilities arising from the movements in rates or prices
of securities or changes in exchange rates through expense and income accounts. Given that the assets of the Fund are valued at fair
value and changes of fair values are reported within expenses and
income from derivatives, embedded derivatives are not accounted
for separately.

Income Tax
4. Risk Management
Under effective tax regulations, the income tax rate applicable to
mutual funds is 5 percent.
Credit Risk
Deferred Tax
Deferred tax is provided using the liability method on all temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities reported in the balance sheet and their value for tax purposes.
Deferred tax assets are recognised only up to the amount of probable future taxable income against which the deferred tax asset can
be offset.
Foreign Currency Translations
Foreign currencies are translated using the exchange rate promulgated by the Czech National Bank as at the relevant date. As at the
balance sheet date, assets and liabilities denominated in foreign
currencies are translated on the same basis.
Foreign exchange rate gains and losses from the daily translation
of assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are posted to expense
or income accounts.
Capital Funds
The selling price of participation certificates is calculated as a proportion of the Fund’s net assets and the relevant number of participation certificates. Participation certificates are sold to investors
using the selling price determined on a daily basis.
Share Premium
Share premium is the difference between the nominal value of all
participation certificates and their carrying amounts as at the date
of their issue or purchase.
Interest Income and Expense and Dividend Income
Interest income and expense are recognised using the accrual principle.
Dividend income is recognised as at the date when the right to
receive the payment is established (ex-dividend date). Dividend income from domestic securities is presented after withholding tax.
Dividend income from foreign securities is presented gross with
the applicable taxes presented within taxes on foreign dividends
(see note 5.16).
Subsequent Events
The impact of events that occurred between the balance sheet date
and the date of the financial statements preparation is recognized in
the financial statements provided these events provide additional evidence about conditions that existed at the date of the balance sheet.
If material events reflecting the facts occurring after the balance
sheet date happened between the balance sheet date and the date
of the financial statements preparation the consequences of these
events are disclosed in the notes to the financial statements but not
recognized in the financial statements.
In accordance with the Statute and the investment strategy, the
Company establishes rules and policies for selecting investment
instruments such that the overall credit risk profile of allocated investments is consistent with the characteristics of the Fund. New
types of instruments are approved on a case by case basis by the
risk management function together with the specification of limits
for positions pertaining to these instruments. Specific emphasis is
placed on an appropriate rating structure and a relatively detailed
diversification of portfolios (especially in relation to interest bearing securities).
Market Risk
The Fund uses a wide range of tools to eliminate risk exposures
attached to its portfolios. Significant attention is paid to market
risks. Apart from statutory restrictions, the Fund is subject to a set
of internal limits having a direct impact on the FX exposure, interest rate exposure (the modified duration range of the Fund), equity
allocation on individual markets according to their volatility, portfolio rating structure (see above), and other characteristics of the
Fund. The relevant limits are appropriately applied to correspond
with the type of the Fund.
Whenever the Fund purchases new types of instruments, these instruments are first analysed to assess the potential credit risk, as
well as the market risk that the instruments might bring to or help
eliminate from the portfolio. Subsequently, their appropriateness
and, if appropriate, the acceptable proportion of these instruments
in the portfolio is evaluated.
The level of the Fund’s market risk exposure is measured using
the Value at Risk (“VaR”). With effect from 1 August 2006, the
VaR for the Company’s Funds is calculated by the Central Risk
Management Department of Česká spořitelna using the historical
simulation method in the K + KvaR system.
Set out below are relative monthly values of the VaR in percentage
terms for individual types of risks:

Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., KONZERVATIVNÍ MIX FF – otevřený podílový fond, 2013 Annual Report
The average VaR is calculated as an average of daily VaR values in
years 2013 and 2012 respectively.
The Fund monitors Value at Risk globally and also broken down to
Foreign Currency VaR, Interest Rate VaR and Equity VaR. Based
on the above values, the Fund identifies critical risk segments. This
identification influences the reinvestment process. The limits set
the maximum acceptable VaR for the Fund.
The Equity VaR also reflects the risk related to the holding of mutual funds’ participation certificates (including funds of money
market and bond funds).
Adherence to all the above limits and their effectiveness is monitored and assessed on an ongoing basis. The limits are reviewed,
if necessary.
The portfolio’s risk of unfavourable development of foreign exchange rates, interest rates, and other market factors is hedged, to
an appropriate extent, by financial derivatives. Financial derivatives are traded on the OTC market as this market enables the trading of contracts whose parameters and nature appropriately satisfy
the requirements of a hedge. Portfolios primarily include currency
swaps, currency forwards and interest rate swaps.
obligations arising from financial contracts. Liquidity is monitored
and managed based on expected cash flows, with appropriate adjustments made to the structure of securities and term placements
portfolios.
Pursuant to the Act, the Company is obliged to repurchase a participation certificate without undue delay but not later than 15 business days from the date when the repurchase right is claimed. Given that the Fund holds securities traded on foreign stock exchanges
which can be realised within a few days, the Fund’s inability to
meet its obligations due to lack of liquidity is unlikely.
Pursuant to Section 12 of the Collective Investment Act, the Company can suspend issues and purchases of the Fund’s participation
certificates for a maximum of three months, if necessary due to the
protection of rights or the participation certificate holders’ interests
protected by law. Issuing and purchasing participation certificates
can be suspended particularly at the end or beginning of the calendar year, in the event of natural disasters, upon very strong fluctuations on financial markets and upon high requirements for the
sales or purchases of participation certificates provided they could
endanger the Fund’s assets.
The quantitative information about the residual maturity of assets
and liabilities is given in Note 5.18.
Liquidity Risk
Another monitored risk is the liquidity risk. Liquidity risk is a risk
that the Fund will not have enough available resources to meet its

5.5 Equity
The Fund has no share capital. The nominal value of one participation certificate is CZK 1. The total nominal value of all participation
certificates is posted to ‘Capital funds’.
Share premium arising from the difference between the nominal and selling values of the participation certificates is recorded separately.
The Fund accounts for share premium upon the sale of participation certificates as well as upon their repurchase. The selling price of the
participation certificate is determined as the share of the Fund’s net assets and the number of issued participation certificates.
The value of a participation certificate as at the last trading date in 2013 totalled CZK 1.1001 (2012: CZK 1.0695). This is the most recent
announced value of the participation certificate for the year, for which purchases and repurchases of the participation certificates of the Fund
were undertaken. This value minimally differs from the accounting value of the participation certificate at the balance sheet date due to additional recognition of some items within the financial statements.
The profit for 2013 in the amount of CZK 86,433 thousand will be transferred to the reinvestment fund within ‘Other funds from profit’.
The profit for 2012 in the amount of CZK 76,642 thousand was transferred to the reinvestment fund within ‘Other funds from profit’.

Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the

whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including an assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements,
whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation
and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the
purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness
of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

1. Organisation and Description of
Business
Formation and Description of the Business
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., VYVÁŽENÝ MIX
FF – otevřený podílový fond, hereinafter the “Fund” (from
26 March 2002 to 1 May 2005 Investiční společnost České
spořitelny, a. s., Sporomix 3 – otevřený podílový fond and to
25 March 2002 Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s. –
2. otevřený podílový fond) was established upon the transformation of 2. spořitelní privatizační investiční fond, a. s. based on
Resolution of the Securities Commission ref. No. 211/981/R/2000
dated 25 February 2000.
Principal Business
The Company collects funds from individuals and legal entities for
the Fund by issuing participation certificates with the purpose of
their collective investment on local and foreign financial markets.
No restrictions are placed on the number of participation certificates for issue and the period for which the Fund is established.
The Company reserves the right to temporary halt the issuing of
participation certificates for no longer than three months in compliance with the Act.
The participation certificates of the Fund are available both in the
Czech Republic and in other EU member countries.
Investment Policy of the Fund
Pursuant to a concluded contract, Česká spořitelna, a. s. acts as the
depository of the Fund.
The Fund is managed by Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s.
(hereinafter the “Company”). In compliance with the Collective
Investment Act No. 189/2004 Coll. (hereinafter the “Act”), the
Company is responsible for the management of the assets of the
Fund, which involves the administration and handling of the assets.
The Fund is a standard fund in compliance with the Act and meets
the requirements of EU legislation.
According to the classification binding for the members of the
Capital Market Association (hereinafter the “AKAT CR”) as at the
date of the approval of this Statute, the Fund can be defined as the
fund of the funds.
On 7 August 2009, following the Company’s request, the Czech
National Bank resolved to merge the Fund with the open-ended
mutual fund Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., ČS Balancovaný – otevřený podílový fond, under Section 101 (2) of the
Act. The Fund is a receiving fund and the Statute of the receiving
Fund remains unchanged.

The objective of the investment policy is to provide participation
certificate holder with a long-term appreciation of participation
certificates primarily through investments in securities of money
market funds and collective investment bond and equity funds.
Credit and interest rate risks are actively managed.
The equity component’s share in the Fund’s portfolio is actively
managed. The neutral weight of the equity component’s share in
the Fund’s assets amounts to 30 percent.
Finances collected in the Fund are invested predominantly in securities of collective investment funds if such collective investment
funds distribute the risk connected to investments and meet other
obligations as set by the Act.
The Fund’s portfolio can be expanded by purchasing shares, bonds
and other investment instruments allowed by the Act for collective
investment of a standard fund.
The limits of the Fund are adhered to on the basis of the Act, or
they are regulated in the Fund’s Statute in compliance with the Act.
The Fund uses financial derivatives to hedge against currency and
interest rate exposures.
The Company can use financial derivatives to effectively manage
the Fund’s assets. Efficient asset management represents transactions for the purpose of decreasing risk, decreasing costs or achieving sufficient income for the Fund provided that the risk is demonstrably low. The exposure from these transactions must be fully
covered by the Fund’s assets so that liabilities arising from these
transactions are fulfilled.
The Company can accept loans and borrowings for the maximum
of six months when managing the Fund’s assets, to cover temporary needs related to the management of the Fund’s assets or

loans and borrowings must not exceed 10 percent of the value of
the Fund’s assets.
Change in the Fund’s Statute
Czech National Bank Resolution No. 2012/4589/570, dated 18
May 2012, which came into force on 5 June 2012: The changes to
the Funds statute related mainly to the duty of the asset investment
company to ensure that its statute is in accordance with the amendment to Act 189/2004 Coll., on collective investments (as ensuing
from the changes made by Act 188/2011 Coll.) and Decree No.
193/2011 Coll., on the minimum requisites of the statute and on
the conditions for the use of the name Short-Term Money Market
Fund and Money Market Fund. Investment objectives, the method
of investing and the risk profile of the Fund have not been changed
in the amendments referred to above.
Along with the change made to the statute, information was updated as to the list
of funds managed by the Company (Article II Paragraph 8 of the statute), in particular information on the
managing parties of the asset management company (Appendix 1
to the statute), information added on the performance of the mutual
fund for 2011 (Appendix 2 to the statute), information updated on
the total cost indicators for 2011, and the date on which the statute
being signed was updated.
On the date the changes to the statute came into force the simple
statute of the Fund was replaced by a newly processed document
providing required key information
for investors. Such key
information for investors was processed in accordance
with
Commission (EU) Regulation No. 583/2012.
As at 1 February 2013, information on Fund`s 2012 performance
was published within the document Key investors information.
(According to the article 23, section 3 of Council Regulation (EC)
no. 583/2010, the performance must be updated within the Key investors information up to 35 days after the previous calendar year
end.)
The updated text of the Funds statute was approved by the Investment company`s board of directors as at 10 April 2013. The
changes in the statute text related to an update of the list of managed funds, update of the information on the length of professional
experience of Investment company management, addition of information on Fund’s performance and the Fund`s benchmark`s
performance, an update of information on total expense ratio for
2012 and update of the date of the signature. These updates were
not subject to preliminary approval from Czech national bank (according to the section 84 (a), subsection 5 of 189/2004 Coll. Act on
collective investment. The shareholders could access the updated
text of the Statute and Key investors information as of 10 April
2013 on http://www.iscs.cz/, at the distributor’s branches (Ceska
sporitelna, a. s.) and at the Investment company seat.
Legislative change
Act No 240/2013 Coll., Act on Management Companies and Investment Funds became effective as of 19 August 2013. Rules
stated by this act must be implemented by management companies
and investment funds by 22 July 2014. In 2013, the Fund`s management was subject to the rules of the Act No. 189/2004 Coll.,
On collective investment schemes. The new rules will be applied
as of 2014.
2. Basis of Preparation
The financial statements have been prepared on the basis of underlying accounting records maintained in accordance with Accounting Act No. 563/1991 Coll., and applicable regulations, decrees and internal standards in compliance with and in the scope
defined in Czech Finance Ministry Regulation No. 501/2002 of
6 November 2002, as subsequently amended, which sets out the
overall framework for the presentation of the financial statements,
and guidelines for the structure and minimum requirements for the
content of the financial statements of banks and certain financial
institutions, and Czech Accounting Standards for Financial Institutions, which establish the accounting principles and policies.
The basis of preparation and the accounting policies have been
consistently applied during both 2013 and 2012.
The Fund is obliged to comply with the regulatory requirements
of the Act.
The financial statements are presented in compliance with general
accounting principles, specifically the accrual principle, the prudence concept and the going concern assumption.
The financial statements contain the balance sheet, profit and loss
account, statement of changes in equity, and notes to the financial
statements.
The presentation of the financial statements requires that the
Company make estimates which have an impact on the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities as at the date of the financial statements as well as expenses and income in the relevant accounting
period. These estimates are based on information available as at
the date of the financial statements and may differ from the actual
results.
As a result of continued market volatility since the start of the
global financial crisis, the Fund may be exposed to increased risk,
specifically due to the uncertainty regarding possible asset impairments and future developments on the market. The financial
statements have been prepared based on the current best estimates
using all relevant and available information as at the date of the
financial statements.
These financial statements are unconsolidated.
274
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., VYVÁŽENÝ MIX FF – otevřený podílový fond, 2013 Annual Report
All amounts are stated in thousands of Czech crowns (CZK), unless indicated otherwise.
Explanation Added for Translation into English
These financial statements are presented on the basis of accounting
principles and standards generally accepted in the Czech Republic.
Certain accounting practices applied by the Company that conform with generally accepted accounting principles and standards
in the Czech Republic may not conform with generally accepted
accounting principles in other countries.
3. Accounting Policies
Transaction Recognition Date
Purchases and sales of securities are recognised using trade date
accounting provided that the period between the trade date and the
fulfilment of the commitment arising from the contract does not
exceed a period typical for the relevant type of transaction.
The transaction recognition date for derivative contracts is:
a) The date upon which the related contract was entered into;
b) The date when the fulfilment was delivered based on the relevant contract.
The transaction recognition date can also be the date when money
in circulation is paid or received, the date when foreign currency is
purchased or sold, the date when a payment is made, the date when
ownership is acquired or terminated, when a receivable or payable
arises, changes or ceases to exist, when assets move within an accounting entity, and the date when other matters to be included
in the accounting records occur, or when the documents supporting these other matters are available, or when other matters are
a consequence of internal conditions of the accounting entity and/
or special regulations.
Securities and investment certificates
In accordance with the Fund’s strategy, all securities are classified
as ‘securities at fair value through profit or loss. During the accounting period, securities are re-measured at fair value on a daily
basis pursuant to the Finance Ministry Regulation No. 194/2011
Coll., on more detailed regulation of certain rules in collective investment (the “Decree”), as amended.
The securities of the Fund are accounted for as securities at fair
value through profit or loss. The fair value of the securities is determined in accordance with the International Financial Reporting
Standards with an exception, that an average price between the
most favourable binding offer and demand (MID price) is used
for bonds.
The securities of the Fund are accounted for as securities at fair
value through profit or loss. Pursuant to the Regulation, securities
are valued at the price quoted on a public market which is adjusted,
as appropriate, to reflect the rules set out in the Regulation. If the
market value is unavailable, the Fund uses a value determined by
the Company using valuation models based on discounted future
cash flows according to the yield curve calculated using the Reuters and Kondor+ systems.
Securities (including certificates) are measured at cost upon initial
recognition using the weighted average method. The acquisition
cost includes direct transaction costs related to the acquisition of
securities.
Realised capital gains or losses are recorded in the profit and loss
account within ‘Profit or loss from financial operations’.
Accrued interest relating to assets is included within the total balance of these assets.
Receivables and Payables
The Fund records receivables arising from its transactions with
securities and other operating receivables at their nominal value,
while receivables from positive fair values of derivatives are recorded at the fair value of the derivatives at the balance sheet date.
Pursuant to the prudence principle, provisions are created based on
the aging of receivables.
The Fund records payables arising from its transactions with securities and operating payables at their nominal value, while payables from negative fair values of derivatives are recorded at the fair
value of the derivatives at the balance sheet date.
Financial Derivatives and Hedging Transactions
In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into hedging
contracts with financial derivatives to hedge against interest rate
and foreign currency exposures associated with its transactions on
financial markets. The method of fair value hedges is applied to
hedging derivatives.
The Fund designates certain derivatives as hedges provided that
the following criteria are met:
– the Fund has developed a risk management strategy;
– at the inception of the hedge, the hedging relationship is formally documented, the documentation identifies the hedged
item and the hedging instrument, and it defines the risk that
is being hedged and the approach to establishing whether the
hedge is effective; and
– the hedge is effective, that is, changes in the fair value or cash
flows of the hedged item are almost fully offset by changes in
the fair value or cash flows of the hedging instrument and the
results are within a range of 80 percent to 125 percent.
Nominal values of derivative financial instruments are recognised
in the off-balance sheet accounts. Changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as hedges (see above) are
recorded as income or expense. Changes in the fair value of the
hedging derivatives attributable to the risk hedged are recognised
275
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., VYVÁŽENÝ MIX FF – otevřený podílový fond, 2013 Annual Report
in the same income or expense accounts as differences from revaluation of a hedged instrument.
All financial derivatives are recorded as assets when the fair value
is positive and as liabilities when the fair value is negative. Fair
values are derived from valuation models.
Derivatives that are not designated as hedging derivatives are
treated as trading derivatives. These derivatives are measured at
fair value on a daily basis and gains and losses on revaluation are
posted to derivative expense and income accounts.
Certain derivatives are embedded in compound financial instruments, which comprise the host instrument and the derivative. Pursuant to the applicable regulations, the Fund recognises changes in
assets and liabilities arising from the movements in rates or prices
of securities or changes in exchange rates through expense and income accounts. Given that the assets of the Fund are valued at fair
value and changes of fair values are reported within expenses and
income from derivatives, embedded derivatives are not accounted
for separately.
Income Tax
Under effective tax regulations, the income tax rate applicable to
mutual funds is 5 percent.
Deferred Tax
Deferred tax is provided using the liability method on all temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities reported in the balance sheet and their value for tax purposes.
Deferred tax assets are recognised only up to the amount of probable future taxable income against which the deferred tax asset can
be offset.
Foreign Currency Translations
Foreign currencies are translated using the exchange rate promulgated by the Czech National Bank as at the relevant date. As at the
balance sheet date, assets and liabilities denominated in foreign
currencies are translated on the same basis.
Foreign exchange rate gains and losses from the daily translation
of assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are posted to expense
or income accounts.
Capital Funds
The selling price of participation certificates is calculated as a proportion of the Fund’s net assets and the relevant number of participation certificates. Participation certificates are sold to qualified
investors using the selling price determined on a daily basis.
Share Premium
Share premium is the difference between the nominal value of all
participation certificates and their carrying amounts as at the date
of their issue or purchase.
Interest Income and Expense and Dividend
Income
Interest income and expense are recognised using the accrual principle.
Dividend income is recognised as at the date when the right to
receive the payment is established (ex-dividend date). Dividend income from domestic securities is presented after withholding tax.
Dividend income from foreign securities is presented gross with
the applicable taxes presented within taxes on foreign dividends
(see note 5.16).
Subsequent Events
The impact of events that occurred between the balance sheet date
and the date of the financial statements preparation is recognized in
the financial statements provided these events provide additional
evidence about conditions that existed at the date of the balance
sheet.
If material events reflecting the facts occurring after the balance
sheet date happened between the balance sheet date and the date
of the financial statements preparation the consequences of these
events are disclosed in the notes to the financial statements but not
recognized in the financial statements.
4. Risk Management
Credit Risk
In accordance with the Statute and the investment strategy, the
Company establishes rules and policies for selecting investment
instruments such that the overall credit risk profile of allocated investments is consistent with the characteristics of the Fund. New
types of instruments are approved on a case by case basis by the
risk management function together with the specification of limits
for positions pertaining to these instruments. Specific emphasis is
placed on an appropriate rating structure and a relatively detailed
diversification of portfolios (especially in relation to interest bearing securities).
Market Risk
The Fund uses a wide range of tools to eliminate risk exposures
attached to its portfolios. Significant attention is paid to market
risks. Apart from statutory restrictions, the Fund is subject to a set
of internal limits having a direct impact on the FX exposure, interest rate exposure (the modified duration range of the Fund), equity
allocation on individual markets according to their volatility, portfolio rating structure (see above), and other characteristics of the
Fund. The relevant limits are appropriately applied to correspond
with the type of the Fund.
Whenever the Fund purchases new types of instruments, these instruments are first analysed to assess the potential credit risk, as
well as the market risk that the instruments might bring to or help
276
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., VYVÁŽENÝ MIX FF – otevřený podílový fond, 2013 Annual Report
eliminate from the portfolio. Subsequently, their appropriateness
and, if appropriate, the acceptable proportion of these instruments
in the portfolio is evaluated.
Adherence to all the above limits and their effectiveness is monitored and assessed on an ongoing basis. The limits are reviewed,
if necessary.
The level of the Fund’s market risk exposure is measured using
the Value at Risk (“VaR”). With effect from 1 August 2006, the
VaR for the Company’s Funds is calculated by the Central Risk
Management Department of Česká spořitelna using the historical
simulation method in the K + KvaR system.
The portfolio’s risk of unfavourable development of foreign exchange rates, interest rates, and other market factors is hedged, to
an appropriate extent, by financial derivatives. Financial derivatives are traded on the OTC market as this market enables the trading of contracts whose parameters and nature appropriately satisfy
the requirements of a hedge. Portfolios primarily include currency
swaps, currency forwards and interest rate swaps.
Set out below are relative monthly values of the VaR in percentage
terms for individual types of risks:

The average VaR is calculated as average of daily VaR values in
years 2013 and 2012 respectively.
The Fund monitors Value at Risk globally and also broken down to
Foreign Currency VaR, Interest Rate VaR and Equity VaR. Based
on the above values, the Fund identifies critical risk segments. This
identification influences the reinvestment process. The limits set
the maximum acceptable VaR for the Fund.
The Equity VaR also reflects the risk related to the holding of mutual funds’ participation certificates (including funds of money
market and bond funds).
Another monitored risk is the liquidity risk. Liquidity risk is a risk
that the Fund will not have enough available resources to meet its
obligations arising from financial contracts. Liquidity is monitored
and managed based on expected cash flows, with appropriate adjustments made to the structure of securities and term placements
portfolios.
Pursuant to the Act, the Company is obliged to repurchase a participation certificate without undue delay but not later than 15 business days from the date when the repurchase right is claimed. Given that the Fund holds securities traded on foreign stock exchanges
which can be realised within a few days, the Fund’s inability to
meet its obligations due to lack of liquidity is unlikely.
Pursuant to Section 12 of the Collective Investment Act, the Company can suspend issues and purchases of the Fund’s participation
certificates for a maximum of three months, if necessary due to the
protection of rights or the participation certificate holder’ interests
protected by law. Issuing and purchasing participation certificates
can be suspended particularly at the end or beginning of the calendar year, in the event of natural disasters, upon very strong fluctuations on financial markets and upon high requirements for the
sales or purchases of participation certificates provided they could
endanger the Fund’s assets.
The quantitative information about the residual maturity of assets
and liabilities is given in Note 5.20.

The Fund has no share capital. The nominal value of one participation certificate is CZK 1. The total nominal value of all participation
certificates is posted to ‘Capital funds’.
Share premium arising from the difference between the nominal and selling values of the participation certificates is recorded separately.
The Fund accounts for share premium upon the sale of participation certificates as well as upon their repurchase. The selling price of the
participation certificate is determined as the share of the Fund’s net assets and the number of issued participation certificates.
278
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., VYVÁŽENÝ MIX FF – otevřený podílový fond, 2013 Annual Report
The value of a participation certificate as at the last trading date in 2013 totalled CZK 1.3614 (2012: CZK 1.2731). This is the most recent
announced value of the participation certificate for the year, for which purchases and repurchases of the participation certificates of the Fund
were undertaken. As at 31 December 2013 this value minimally differed from the accounting value of the participation certificate at the
balance sheet date due to additional recognition of some items within the financial statements.
The profit for 2013 in the amount of CZK 112,088 thousand will be transferred to the reinvestment fund within ‘Other funds from profit’.
The profit for 2012 in the amount of CZK 175,756 thousand was transferred to the reinvestment fund within ‘Other funds from profit’.

Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management of Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the Czech Republic, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the
Act on Auditors and International Standards on Auditing as amended by implementation guidance of the Chamber of Auditors of the Czech
Republic. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance
whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including an assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements,
whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation
and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the
purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness
of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Investiční společnost České
spořitelny, a. s., DYNAMICKÝ MIX FF – otevřený podílový fond, as at 31 December 2013, and its financial performance for the year then

Notes to the Financial Statements
for the year ended 31 December 2013
1. Organisation and Description of
Business
Formation and Description of the Business
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., DYNAMICKÝ MIX
FF – otevřený podílový fond, hereinafter the “Fund” (from 25
March 2002 to 2 May 2005 Investiční společnost České spořitelny,
a. s., Sporomix 5 – otevřený podílový fond and to 25 March 2002
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s. – Všeobecný otevřený
podílový fond) was established upon the transformation of
Spořitelní privatizační – Všeobecný investiční fond, a. s. based on
Resolution of the Securities Commission ref. no. 211/5701/R/2000
dated 26 June 2000.
Pursuant to a concluded contract, Česká spořitelna, a. s. acts as the
depository of the Fund.
The Fund is managed by Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s.
(hereinafter the “Company”). In compliance with the Collective
Investment Act No. 189/2004 Coll. (hereinafter the “Act”), the
Company is responsible for the management of the assets of the
Fund, which involves the administration and handling of the assets.
The Fund is a standard fund in compliance with the Act and meets
the requirements of EU legislation.
According to the classification binding for the members of the
Capital Market Association (the “AKAT CR”) as at the date of the
approval of this Statute, the Fund can be defined as a fund of funds.
Investment Policy of the Fund
The objective of the investment policy is to provide participation
certificate holders with a long-term appreciation of participation
certificates primarily through investments in securities of money
market funds, collective investment bond and equity funds. Credit
and interest rate risks are actively managed.
The equity component’s share in the Fund’s portfolio is actively
managed. The neutral weight of the equity component’s share in
the Fund’s assets amounts to 50 percent.
Finances collected in the Fund are invested predominantly in securities of collective investment funds if such collective investment
funds distribute the risk connected to investments and meet other
obligations set by the Act.
The limits of the Fund are adhered to on the basis of the Act, or
they are regulated in the Fund’s Statute in compliance with the Act.
The Company can use financial derivatives to effectively manage
the Fund’s assets. Efficient asset management represents transactions for the purpose of decreasing risk, decreasing costs or achieving sufficient income for the Fund provided that the risk is demonstrably low. The exposure from these transactions must be fully
covered by the Fund’s assets so that liabilities arising from these
transactions are fulfilled.
Management Policy
The profit/(loss) is based on the difference between income and
expenses related to the management of the Fund’s assets.

Principal Business
The Company collects funds from individuals and legal entities for
the Fund by issuing participation certificates with the purpose of
their collective investment on local and foreign financial markets.
No restrictions are placed on the number of participation certificates for issue and the period for which the Fund is established.
The Company reserves the right to temporary halt the issuing of
participation certificates for no longer than three months in compliance with the Act.
The participation certificates of the Fund are available both in the
Czech Republic and in other EU member countries.
The generated profit has been fully retained by the Fund, in the reinvestment fund, as a source for further investments, and increases
the participation certificate value. In the event that the Fund incurs
a loss from the Company’s management of assets, the loss is covered from the reinvestment fund which was created from earnings
brought forward. If the reinvestment fund is not sufficient, the loss
must be covered by a reduction in the Fund’s capital fund.
The Fund’s assets must not be used for the provision of loans, borrowings or gifts, to secure a third party’s obligation or to settle
a payable which is not related to the Fund’s management. This
provision does not affect Sections 26 and 27 of the Collective Investment Act.
When managing the Fund’s assets, contracts for the sale of securities and money market instruments, securities issued by other collective investment funds and financial derivatives which are not
owned by the Fund at the moment of concluding the respective
contracts, may not be entered into.
290
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., DYNAMICKÝ MIX FF – otevřený podílový fond, 2013 Annual Report
The Company can accept loans and borrowings for the maximum
of six months when managing the Fund’s assets, to cover temporary needs related to the management of the Fund’s assets or
purchases of participation certificates. The volume of the received
loans and borrowings is not allowed to exceed 10 percent of the
value of the Fund’s assets.
Change in the Fund’s Statute
Czech National Bank Resolution No. 2012/4572/570, dated 18
May 2012, which came into force on 5 June 2012: The changes to
the Funds statute related mainly to the duty of the asset investment
company to ensure that its statute is in accordance with the amendment to Act 189/2004 Coll., on collective investments (as ensuing
from the changes made by Act 188/2011 Coll.) and Decree No.
193/2011 Coll., on the minimum requisites of the statute and on
the conditions for the use of the name Short-Term Money Market
Fund and Money Market Fund. Investment objectives, the method
of investing and the risk profile of the Fund have not been changed
in the amendments referred to above.
Along with the change made to the statute, information was updated as to the list of funds managed by the Company (Article II
Paragraph 8 of the statute), in particular information on the managing parties of the asset management company (Appendix 1 to the
statute), information added on the performance of the mutual fund
for 2011 (Appendix 2 to the statute), information updated on the
total cost indicators for 2011, and the date on which the statute being signed was updated.
On the date the changes to the statute came into force the simple
statute of the Fund was replaced by a newly processed document
providing required key information for investors. Such key information for investors was processed in accordance with Commission (EU) Regulation No. 583/2012.
As at 1 February 2013, information on Fund`s 2012 performance
was published within the document Key investors information.
(According to the article 23, section 3 of Council Regulation (EC)
no. 583/2010, the performance must be updated within the Key investors information up to 35 days after the previous calendar year
end.)
The updated text of the Funds statute was approved by the Investment company`s board of directors as at 10 April 2013. The
changes in the statute text related to an update of the list of managed funds, update of the information on the length of professional
experience of Investment company management, addition of information on Fund’s performance and the Fund`s benchmark`s
performance, an update of information on total expense ratio for
2012 and update of the date of the signature. These updates were
not subject to preliminary approval from Czech national bank (according to the section 84 (a), subsection 5 of 189/2004 Coll., On
collective investment schemes). The shareholders could access the
updated text of the Statute and Key investors information as of
10 April 2013 on http://www.iscs.cz/, at the distributor’s branches
(Ceska sporitelna, a. s.) and at the Investment company seat.
Legislative change
Act No 240/2013 Coll., On Management Companies and Investment Funds became effective as of 19 August 2013. Rules stated
by this act must be implemented by management companies and
investment funds by 22 July 2014. In 2013, the Fund`s management was subject to the rules of the Act No. 189/2004 Coll., On
collective investment schemes. The new rules will be applied as
of 2014.
2. Basis of Preparation
The financial statements have been prepared on the basis of underlying accounting records maintained in accordance with Accounting Act No. 563/1991 Coll., and applicable regulations, decrees and internal standards in compliance with and in the scope
defined in Czech Finance Ministry Regulation No. 501/2002 of
6 November 2002, as subsequently amended, which sets out the
overall framework for the presentation of the financial statements,
and guidelines for the structure and minimum requirements for the
content of the financial statements of banks and certain financial
institutions, and Czech Accounting Standards for Financial Institutions, which establish the accounting principles and policies.
The basis of preparation and the accounting policies have been
consistently applied during both 2013 and 2012.
The Fund is obliged to comply with the regulatory requirements
of the Act.
The financial statements are presented in compliance with general
accounting principles, specifically the accrual principle, the prudence concept and the going concern assumption.
The financial statements contain the balance sheet, profit and loss
account, statement of changes in equity, and notes to the financial
statements.
The presentation of the financial statements requires that the
Company makes estimates which have an impact on the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities as at the date of the financial statements as well as expenses and income in the relevant accounting
period. These estimates are based on information available as at
the date of the financial statements and may differ from the actual
results.
As a result of continued market volatility since the start of the
global financial crisis, the Fund may be exposed to increased risk,
specifically due to the uncertainty regarding possible asset impairments and future developments on the market. The financial
statements have been prepared based on the current best estimates
291
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., DYNAMICKÝ MIX FF – otevřený podílový fond, 2013 Annual Report
using all relevant and available information as at the date of the
financial statements.
These financial statements are unconsolidated.
All amounts are stated in thousands of Czech crowns (CZK), unless indicated otherwise.
Explanation Added for Translation into English
These financial statements are presented on the basis of accounting
principles and standards generally accepted in the Czech Republic.
Certain accounting practices applied by the Company that conform with generally accepted accounting principles and standards
in the Czech Republic may not conform with generally accepted
accounting principles in other countries.
3. Accounting Policies
Pursuant to the Regulation, securities are valued at the price quoted
on a public market which is adjusted, as appropriate, to reflect the
rules set out in the Regulation. If the market value is unavailable,
the Fund uses a value determined by the Company using valuation models based on discounted future cash flows according to
the yield curve calculated using the Reuters and Kondor+ systems.
Securities are measured at cost upon initial recognition using the
weighted average method. The acquisition cost includes direct
transaction costs related to the acquisition of securities.
Realised capital gains or losses are recorded in the profit and loss
account within ‘Profit or loss from financial operations’.
Accrued interest relating to assets is included within the total balance of these assets.
Receivables and Payables
Purchases and sales of securities are recognised using trade date
accounting provided that the period between the trade date and the
fulfilment of the commitment arising from the contract does not
exceed a period typical for the relevant type of transaction.
The Fund records receivables arising from its transactions with
securities and other operating receivables at their nominal value,
while receivables from positive fair values of derivatives are recorded at the fair value of the derivatives at the balance sheet date.
Pursuant to the prudence principle, provisions are created based on
the aging of receivables.
The transaction recognition date for derivative contracts is:
a) the date upon which the related contract was entered into;
b) the date when fulfilment was delivered based on the relevant
contract.
The Fund records payables arising from its transactions with securities and operating payables at their nominal value, while payables from negative fair values of derivatives are recorded at the fair
value of the derivatives at the balance sheet date.
The transaction recognition date can also be the date when money
in circulation is paid or received, the date when foreign currency is
purchased or sold, the date when a payment is made, the date when
ownership is acquired or terminated, when a receivable or payable
arises, changes or ceases to exist, when assets move within an accounting entity, and the date when other matters to be included
in the accounting records occur, or when the documents supporting these other matters are available, or when other matters are
a consequence of internal conditions of the accounting entity and/
or special regulations.

Securities
In accordance with the Fund’s strategy, all securities are classified
as securities at fair value through profit or loss. During the accounting period, securities are re-measured at fair value on a daily
basis pursuant to the Finance Ministry Regulation No. 194/2011
Coll., on more detailed regulation of certain rules in collective investment (the “Decree”), as amended.
The securities of the Fund are accounted for as securities at fair
value through profit or loss. The fair value of the securities is determined in accordance with the International Financial Reporting
Standards with an exception, that an average price between the
most favourable binding offer and demand (MID price) is used
for bonds.
In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into hedging
contracts with financial derivatives to hedge against interest rate
and foreign currency exposures associated with its transactions on
financial markets. The method of fair value hedges is applied to
hedging derivatives.
The Fund designates certain derivatives as hedges provided that
the following criteria are met:
– the Fund has developed a risk management strategy;
– at the inception of the hedge, the hedging relationship is formally documented, the documentation identifies the hedged
item and the hedging instrument, and it defines the risk that
is being hedged and the approach to establishing whether the
hedge is effective; and
– the hedge is effective, that is, changes in the fair value or cash
flows of the hedged item are almost fully offset by changes in
the fair value or cash flows of the hedging instrument and the
results are within a range of 80 percent to 125 percent.
Nominal values of derivative financial instruments are recognised
in the off-balance sheet accounts. Changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as hedges (see above) are
recorded as income or expense. Changes in the fair value of the
hedging derivatives attributable to the risk hedged are recognised
292
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., DYNAMICKÝ MIX FF – otevřený podílový fond, 2013 Annual Report
in the same income or expense accounts as differences from revaluation of a hedged instrument.
All financial derivatives are recorded as assets when the fair value
is positive and as liabilities when the fair value is negative. Fair
values are derived from valuation models.
Derivatives that are not designated as hedging derivatives are
treated as trading derivatives. These derivatives are measured at
fair value on a daily basis and gains and losses on revaluation are
posted to expense and income accounts.
Certain derivatives are embedded in compound financial instruments, which comprise the host instrument and the derivative. Pursuant to the applicable regulations, the Fund recognises changes in
assets and liabilities arising from the movements in rates or prices
of securities or changes in exchange rates through expense and income accounts. Given that the assets of the Fund are valued at fair
value and changes of fair values are reported within expenses and
income from derivatives, embedded derivatives are not accounted
for separately.
Income Tax
Under effective tax regulations, the income tax rate applicable to
mutual funds is 5 percent.
Deferred Tax
Deferred tax is provided using the liability method on all temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities reported in the balance sheet and their value for tax purposes.
Deferred tax assets are recognised only up to the amount of probable future taxable income against which the deferred tax asset can
be offset.
Foreign Currency Translations
Foreign currencies are translated using the exchange rate promulgated by the Czech National Bank as at the relevant date. As at the
balance sheet date, assets and liabilities denominated in foreign
currencies are translated on the same basis.
Foreign exchange rate gains and losses from the daily translation
of assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are posted to expense
or income accounts.
Equity of the Fund
The selling price of participation certificates is calculated as a proportion of the Fund’s net assets and the relevant number of participation certificates. Participation certificates are sold to investors
using the selling price determined on a daily basis.
Interest Income and Expense and Dividend
Income
Interest income and expense are recognised using the accrual principle.
Dividend income is recognised as at the date when the right to
receive the payment is established (ex-dividend date). Dividend income from domestic securities is presented after withholding tax.
Dividend income from foreign securities is presented gross with
the applicable taxes presented within taxes on foreign dividends
(see note 5.16).
Subsequent Events
The impact of events that occurred between the balance sheet date
and the date of the financial statements preparation is recognized in
the financial statements provided these events provide additional
evidence about conditions that existed at the date of the balance
sheet.
If material events reflecting the facts occurring after the balance
sheet date happened between the balance sheet date and the date
of the financial statements preparation the consequences of these
events are disclosed in the notes to the financial statements but not
recognized in the financial statements.
4. Risk Management
Credit Risk
In accordance with the Statute and the investment strategy, the
Company establishes rules and policies for selecting investment
instruments such that the overall credit risk profile of allocated investments is consistent with the characteristics of the Fund. New
types of instruments are approved on a case by case basis by the
risk management function together with the specification of limits
for positions pertaining to these instruments. Specific emphasis is
placed on an appropriate rating structure and a relatively detailed
diversification of portfolios (especially in relation to interest bearing securities).
Market Risk
The Fund uses a wide range of tools to eliminate risk exposures
attached to its portfolios. Significant attention is paid to market
risks. Apart from statutory restrictions, the Fund is subject to a set
of internal limits having a direct impact on the FX exposure, interest rate exposure (the modified duration range of the Fund), equity
allocation on individual markets according to their volatility, portfolio rating structure (see above), and other characteristics of the
Fund. The relevant limits are appropriately applied to correspond
with the type of the Fund.
Share Premium
Share premium is the difference between the nominal value of all
participation certificates and their carrying amounts as at the date
of their issue or purchase.
Whenever the Fund purchases new types of instruments, these instruments are first analysed to assess the potential credit risk, as
well as the market risk that the instruments might bring to or help
eliminate from the portfolio. Subsequently, their appropriateness
293
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., DYNAMICKÝ MIX FF – otevřený podílový fond, 2013 Annual Report
and, if appropriate, the acceptable proportion of these instruments
in the portfolio is evaluated.
The level of the Fund’s market risk exposure is measured using
the Value at Risk (“VaR”). With effect from 1 August 2006, the
VaR for the Company’s Funds is calculated by the Central Risk
Management Department of Česká spořitelna using the historical
simulation method in the K + KvaR system.
Set out below are relative monthly values of the VaR in percentage
terms for individual types of risks:

The average VaR is calculated as average of daily VaR values in
years 2013 and 2012 respectively.
The Fund monitors Value at Risk globally and also broken down to
Foreign Currency VaR, Interest Rate VaR and Equity VaR. Based
on the above values, the Fund identifies critical risk segments. This
identification influences the reinvestment process. The limits set
the maximum acceptable VaR for the Fund.
The Equity VaR also reflects the risk related to the holding of mutual funds’ participation certificates (including funds of money
market and bond funds).
Adherence to all the above limits and their effectiveness is monitored and assessed on an ongoing basis. The limits are reviewed,
if necessary.
The portfolio’s risk of unfavourable development of foreign exchange rates, interest rates, and other market factors is hedged, to
an appropriate extent, by financial derivatives. Financial derivatives are traded on the OTC market as this market enables the trading of contracts whose parameters and nature appropriately satisfy
the requirements of a hedge. Portfolios primarily include currency
swaps, currency forwards and interest rate swaps.
Liquidity Risk
Another monitored risk is the liquidity risk. Liquidity risk is a risk
that the Fund will not have enough available resources to meet its obligations arising from financial contracts. Liquidity is monitored and
managed based on expected cash flows, with appropriate adjustments
made to the structure of securities and term placements portfolios.
Pursuant to the Act, the Company is obliged to repurchase a participation certificate without undue delay but not later than 15 business days from the date when the repurchase right is claimed. Given that the Fund holds securities traded on foreign stock exchanges
which can be realised within a few days, the Fund’s inability to
meet its obligations due to lack of liquidity is unlikely.
Pursuant to Section 12 of the Collective Investment Act, the Company can suspend issues and purchases of the Fund’s participation
certificates for a maximum of three months, if necessary due to the
protection of rights or the participation certificate holders’ interests
protected by law. Issuing and purchasing participation certificates
can be suspended particularly at the end or beginning of the calendar year, in the event of natural disasters, upon very strong fluctuations on financial markets and upon high requirements for the
sales or purchases of participation certificates provided they could
endanger the Fund’s assets.
The quantitative information about the residual maturity of assets
and liabilities is given in Note 5.18.

5.5 Equity
The Fund has no share capital. The nominal value of one participation certificate is CZK 1. The total nominal value of all participation
certificates is posted to ‘Capital funds’.
Share premium arising from the difference between the nominal and selling values of the participation certificates is recorded separately.
The Fund accounts for share premium upon the sale of participation certificates as well as upon their repurchase. The selling price of the
participation certificate is determined as the share of the Fund’s net assets and the number of issued participation certificates.
The value of a participation certificate as at the last trading date in 2013 totalled CZK 1.3009 (2012: CZK 1.1676). This is the most recent
announced value of the participation certificate for the year, for which purchases and repurchases of the participation certificates of the Fund
were undertaken.
In line with the Fund’s Statute, the profit for 2013 of CZK 66,060 thousand will be transferred to the reinvestment fund within ‘Other funds
from profit’.

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including an assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements,
whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation
and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the
purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness
of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

2. Basis of Preparation
The financial statements have been prepared on the basis of underlying accounting records maintained in accordance with Accounting Act No. 563/1991 Coll., and applicable regulations, decrees and internal standards in compliance with and in the scope
defined in Czech Finance Ministry Regulation No. 501/2002 of
6 November 2002, as subsequently amended, which sets out the
overall framework for the presentation of the financial statements,
and guidelines for the structure and minimum requirements for the
content of the financial statements of banks and certain financial
institutions, and Czech Accounting Standards for Financial Institutions, which establish the accounting principles and policies.
The basis of preparation and the accounting policies have been applied during both 2013 and 2012.
The Fund is obliged to comply with the regulatory requirements
of the Act.
The financial statements are presented in compliance with general
accounting principles, specifically the accrual principle, the prudence concept and the going concern assumption.
The financial statements contain the balance sheet, profit and loss
account, statement of changes in equity, and notes to the financial
statements.
The presentation of the financial statements requires that the
Company makes estimates which have an impact on the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities as at the date of the financial statements as well as expenses and income in the relevant accounting
period. These estimates are based on information available as at
the date of the financial statements and may differ from the actual
results.
As a result of continued market volatility since the start of the
global financial crisis, the Fund may be exposed to increased risk,
specifically due to the uncertainty regarding possible asset impairments and future developments on the market. The financial
statements have been prepared based on the current best estimates
using all relevant and available information as at the date of the
financial statements.
These financial statements are unconsolidated.
All amounts are stated in thousands of Czech crowns (CZK), unless indicated otherwise.
Explanation Added for Translation into English
These financial statements are presented on the basis of accounting
principles and standards generally accepted in the Czech Republic.
Certain accounting practices applied by the Company that conform with generally accepted accounting principles and standards
308
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., AKCIOVÝ MIX FF – otevřený podílový fond, 2013 Annual Report
in the Czech Republic may not conform with generally accepted
accounting principles in other countries.
Realised capital gains or losses are recorded in the profit and loss
account within ‘Profit or loss from financial operations’.
3. Accounting Policies
Accrued interest relating to assets is included within the total balance of these assets.
Transaction Recognition Date
Receivables and Payables
Purchases and sales of securities are recognised using trade date
accounting provided that the period between the trade date and the
fulfilment of the commitment arising from the contract does not
exceed a period typical for the relevant type of transaction.
The Fund records receivables arising from its transactions with
securities and other operating receivables at their nominal value,
while receivables from positive fair values of derivatives are recorded at the fair value of the derivatives at the balance sheet date.
Pursuant to the prudence principle, provisions are created based on
the aging of receivables.
The transaction recognition date for derivative contracts is:
a) the date upon which the related contract was entered into;
b) the date when fulfilment was delivered based on the relevant
contract.
The transaction recognition date can also be the date when money
in circulation is paid or received, the date when foreign currency is
purchased or sold, the date when a payment is made, the date when
ownership is acquired or terminated, when a receivable or payable
arises, changes or ceases to exist, when assets move within an accounting entity, and the date when other matters to be included
in the accounting records occur, or when the documents supporting these other matters are available, or when other matters are
a consequence of internal conditions of the accounting entity and/
or special regulations.
Securities
In accordance with the Fund’s strategy, all securities are classified
as securities at fair value through profit or loss. During the accounting period, securities are re-measured at fair value on a daily
basis pursuant to the Finance Ministry Regulation No. 194/2011
Coll., on more detailed regulation of certain rules in collective investment (the “Decree”), as amended.
The securities of the Fund are accounted for as securities at fair
value through profit or loss. The fair value of the securities is determined in accordance with the International Financial Reporting
Standards with an exception, that an average price between the
most favourable binding offer and demand (MID price) is used
for bonds.
Pursuant to the Regulation, securities are valued at the price quoted
on a public market which is adjusted, as appropriate, to reflect the
rules set out in the Regulation. If the market value is unavailable,
the Fund uses a value determined by the Company using valuation models based on discounted future cash flows according to
the yield curve calculated using the Reuters and Kondor+ systems.
Securities are measured at cost upon initial recognition using the
weighted average method. The acquisition cost includes direct
transaction costs related to the acquisition of securities.
The Fund records payables arising from its transactions with securities and operating payables at their nominal value, while payables from negative fair values of derivatives are recorded at the fair
value of the derivatives at the balance sheet date.
Financial Derivatives and Hedging Transactions
In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into hedging contracts with financial derivatives to hedge against foreign currency
exposures associated with its transactions on financial markets.
The Fund designates certain derivatives as hedges provided that
the following criteria are met:
– the Fund has developed a risk management strategy;
– at the inception of the hedge, the hedging relationship is formally documented, the documentation identifies the hedged
item and the hedging instrument, and it defines the risk that
is being hedged and the approach to establishing whether the
hedge is effective; and
– the hedge is effective, that is, changes in the fair value or cash
flows of the hedged item are almost fully offset by changes in
the fair value or cash flows of the hedging instrument and the
results are within a range of 80 percent to 125 percent.
Nominal values of derivative financial instruments are recognised
in the off-balance sheet accounts. Changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as hedges (see above) are
recorded as income or expense. Changes in the fair value of the
hedging derivatives attributable to the risk hedged are recognised
in the same income or expense accounts as differences from revaluation of a hedged instrument.
All financial derivatives are recorded as assets when the fair value
is positive and as liabilities when the fair value is negative. Fair
values are derived from on the valuation models.
Derivatives that are not designated as hedging derivatives are
treated as trading derivatives. These derivatives are measured at
fair value on a daily basis and gains and losses on revaluation are
posted to expense and income accounts.

Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., AKCIOVÝ MIX FF – otevřený podílový fond, 2013 Annual Report
Certain derivatives are embedded in compound financial instruments, which comprise the host instrument and the derivative. Pursuant to the applicable regulations, the Fund recognises changes in
assets and liabilities arising from the movements in rates or prices
of securities or changes in exchange rates through expense and income accounts. Given that the assets of the Fund are valued at fair
value and changes of fair values are reported within expenses and
income from derivatives, embedded derivatives are not accounted
for separately.
Income Tax
Under effective tax regulations, the income tax rate applicable to
mutual funds is 5 percent.
Deferred Tax
Deferred tax is provided using the liability method on all temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities reported in the balance sheet and their value for tax purposes.
Deferred tax assets are recognised only up to the amount of probable future taxable income against which the deferred tax asset can
be offset.
Foreign Currency Translations
Foreign currencies are translated using the exchange rate promulgated by the Czech National Bank as at the relevant date. As at the
balance sheet date, assets and liabilities denominated in foreign
currencies are translated on the same basis.
Foreign exchange rate gains and losses from the daily translation
of assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are posted to expense
or income accounts.
Capital Funds
The selling price of participation certificates is calculated as a proportion of the Fund’s net assets and the relevant number of participation certificates. Participation certificates are sold to investors
using the selling price determined on a daily basis.
Subsequent Events
The impact of events that occurred between the balance sheet date
and the date of the financial statements preparation is recognized in
the financial statements provided these events provide additional
evidence about conditions that existed at the date of the balance
sheet.
If material events reflecting the facts occurring after the balance
sheet date happened between the balance sheet date and the date
of the financial statements preparation the consequences of these
events are disclosed in the notes to the financial statements but not
recognized in the financial statements.
4. Risk Management
Credit Risk
In accordance with the Statute and the investment strategy, the
Company establishes rules and policies for selecting investment
instruments such that the overall credit risk profile of allocated investments is consistent with the characteristics of the Fund. New
types of instruments are approved on a case by case basis by the
risk management function together with the specification of limits
for positions pertaining to these instruments. Specific emphasis is
placed on an appropriate rating structure and a relatively detailed
diversification of portfolios (especially in relation to interest bearing securities).
Market Risk
The Fund uses a wide range of tools to eliminate risk exposures
attached to its portfolios. Significant attention is paid to market
risks. Apart from statutory restrictions, the Fund is subject to a set
of internal limits having a direct impact on the FX exposure, interest rate exposure (the modified duration range of the Fund), equity
allocation on individual markets according to their volatility, portfolio rating structure (see above), and other characteristics of the
Fund. The relevant limits are appropriately applied to correspond
with the type of the Fund.
Share Premium
Share premium is the difference between the nominal value of all
participation certificates and their carrying amounts as at the date
of their issue or purchase.
Interest Income and Expense and Dividend
Income
Interest income and expense are recognised using the accrual principle.
Dividend income is recognised as at the date when the right to
receive the payment is established (ex-dividend date). Dividend income from domestic securities is presented after withholding tax.
Dividend income from foreign securities is presented gross with
the applicable taxes presented within taxes on foreign dividends
(see note 5.16).
Whenever the Fund purchases new types of instruments, these instruments are first analysed to assess the potential credit risk, as
well as the market risk that the instruments might bring to or help
eliminate from the portfolio. Subsequently, their appropriateness
and, if appropriate, the acceptable proportion of these instruments
in the portfolio is evaluated.
The level of the Fund’s market risk exposure is measured using
the Value at Risk (“VaR”). With effect from 1 August 2006, the
VaR for the Company’s Funds is calculated by the Central Risk
Management Department of Česká spořitelna using the historical
simulation method in the K + KvaR system.
Set out below are relative monthly values of the VaR in percentage
terms for individual types of risks:

Global VaR
Foreign currency VaR
Interest rate VaR
Equity VaR
The average VaR is calculated as average of daily VaR values in
years 2013 and 2012 respectively.
The Fund monitors Value at Risk globally and also broken down to
Foreign Currency VaR, Interest Rate VaR and Equity VaR. Based
on the above values, the Fund identifies critical risk segments. This
identification influences the reinvestment process. The limits set
the maximum acceptable VaR for the Fund.
The Equity VaR also reflects the risk related to the holding of mutual funds’ participation certificates (including funds of money
market and bond funds).
Adherence to all the above limits and their effectiveness is monitored and assessed on an ongoing basis. The limits are reviewed,
if necessary.
The portfolio’s risk of unfavourable development of foreign exchange rates, interest rates, and other market factors is hedged, to
an appropriate extent, by financial derivatives. Financial deriva-
tives are traded on the OTC market as this market enables the trading of contracts whose parameters and nature appropriately satisfy
the requirements of a hedge. Portfolios primarily include currency
swaps, currency forwards and interest rate swaps.
Liquidity Risk
Another monitored risk is the liquidity risk. Liquidity risk is a risk
that the Fund will not have enough available resources to meet its
obligations arising from financial contracts. Liquidity is monitored
and managed based on expected cash flows, with appropriate adjustments made to the structure of securities and term placements
portfolios.
Pursuant to the Act, the Company is obliged to repurchase a participation certificate without undue delay but not later than 15 business days from the date when the repurchase right is claimed. Given that the Fund holds securities traded on foreign stock exchanges
which can be realised within a few days, the Fund’s inability to
meet its obligations due to lack of liquidity is unlikely.
Pursuant to Section 12 of the Collective Investment Act, the Company can suspend issues and purchases of the Fund’s participation
certificates for a maximum of three months, if necessary due to the
protection of rights or the participation certificate holders’ interests
protected by law. Issuing and purchasing participation certificates
can be suspended particularly at the end or beginning of the calendar year, in the event of natural disasters, upon very strong fluctuations on financial markets and upon high requirements for the
sales or purchases of participation certificates provided they could
endanger the Fund’s assets.
The quantitative information about the residual maturity of assets
and liabilities is given in Note 5.18.

5.5 Equity
The Fund has no share capital. The nominal value of one participation certificate is CZK 1. The total nominal value of all participation
certificates is posted to ‘Capital funds’.
Share premium arising from the difference between the nominal and selling values of the participation certificates is recorded separately.
The Fund accounts for share premium upon the sale of participation certificates as well as upon their repurchase. The selling price of the
participation certificate is determined as the share of the Fund’s net assets and the number of issued participation certificates.
The value of a participation certificate as at the last trading date in 2013 totalled CZK 1.5761 (2012: CZK 1.3469). This is the most recent
announced value of the participation certificate for the year, for which purchases and repurchases of the participation certificates of the Fund
were undertaken.

Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management of Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the Czech Republic, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the
Act on Auditors and International Standards on Auditing as amended by implementation guidance of the Chamber of Auditors of the Czech
Republic. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance
whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including an assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements,
whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation
and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the
purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness
of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Investiční společnost České
spořitelny, a. s., Smíšený fond – otevřený podílový fond, as at 31 December 2013, and its financial performance for the year then ended in

Notes to the Financial Statements
for the year ended 31 December 2013
1. Organisation and Description of
Business
Formation and Description of the Business
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., Smíšený fond –
otevřený podílový fond (the “Fund” or “ISČS, a. s. – Smíšený fond
OPF”) is an accounting entity without legal entity status, formed
by Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s. (the “Company”)
in compliance with the Collective Investment Act No. 189/2004
Coll. (the “Act”).
Following Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s.’s request,
the Czech National Bank approved the formation of a fund entitled Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., Smíšený fond –
otevřený podílový fond. The decision came into legal effect on 20
January 2010. The Fund commenced its activities on 8 February
2010.
Pursuant to a concluded contract, Česká spořitelna, a. s. acts as the
depository of the Fund.
The Company collects funds from individuals and legal entities for
the Fund by issuing participation certificates with the purpose of
their collective investment on local and foreign financial markets.
No restrictions are placed on the number of participation certificates for issue and the period for which the Fund is established.
The Company reserves the right to temporary halt the issuing of
participation certificates for no longer than three months in compliance with the Act.
The Company is obliged to repurchase a participation certificate
without undue delay but not later than 15 business days from the
date when the repurchase right is claimed through Česká spořitelna
if the purchase of a participation certificate is not suspended.
The nominal value of each participation certificate is the same, i.e.
CZK 1,000.
The participation certificates of the Fund are available both in the
Czech Republic and in other EU member countries.
Investment Policy of the Fund
The Fund is managed by the Company. In compliance with the
Act, the Company is responsible for the management of the assets
of the Fund, which involves the administration and handling of
the assets.
The Fund is a standard fund in compliance with the Act and meets
the requirements of EU legislation.
According to the classification binding for the members of the
Capital Market Association (hereinafter the “AKAT CR”) as at the
date of the approval of this Statute, the Fund can be defined as
a mixed fund.

Principal Business
The Fund is comprised of assets which are owned by the participation certificate holders based on their individual share of participation certificates. The Company is entrusted with the management
of the Fund and the Fund constitutes an independent set of assets,
separated from the management of the Company’s assets and from
the assets of other funds managed by the Company. The Fund is
not a legal entity. The Company manages the Fund under its name
and on the account of the participation certificate holders.
The objective of the investment policy is long-term over-performing the income from Czech state bonds and foreign shares through
active changes in the weight of the shares of the portfolio, currency composition of the portfolio and modified duration of a bond
portion of the portfolio. To a minor extent, the instruments with
exposure on corporate bonds can also be included in the Fund’s
portfolio. The Fund is managed with an emphasis on the generated
income. The objective is achieved principally through an active allocation of assets (especially bonds vs shares), while a maximum
portion of shares and investment instruments carrying the equity
risk may not exceed 90 percent of the Fund’s assets. The equity
component’s share in the Fund’s portfolio and its regional and sector composition are actively managed. The neutral weight of the
state bond component of the portfolio amounts to 60 percent of
the Fund’s assets. The bond component of the portfolio is actively
managed in reference to interest rate risk on the Czech and Euro
income curves. The Fund carries currency exposure arising from
investments in local currencies. The currency exposure is actively
managed using available hedging instruments. Due to an emphasis
on using investment opportunities, the Fund achieves a high asset
turnover. These objectives do not constitute limits for mitigation
and spread of the risk associated with investing activities.
The Fund may invest in securities of collective investment funds,
if such a collective investment fund invests in the same types of assets, distributes the risk connected to investments and meets other
obligations as set by the Act.
324
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., Smíšený fond – otevřený podílový fond, 2013 Annual Report
The Company can use financial derivatives to effectively manage
the Fund’s assets.
The Fund’s portfolio can be expanded by purchasing other investment instruments allowed by the Act for collective investment of
a standard fund.
The limits of the Fund are adhered to on the basis of the Act, or
they are regulated in the Fund’s Statute in compliance with the Act.
The Company can use financial derivatives to effectively manage
the Fund’s assets. Efficient asset management represents transactions for the purpose of decreasing risk, decreasing costs or achieving sufficient income for the Fund provided that the risk is demonstrably low. The exposure from these transactions must be fully
covered by the Fund’s assets so that liabilities arising from these
transactions are fulfilled.
Management Policy
The profit/(loss) is based on the difference between income and
expenses related to the management of the Fund’s assets.
The generated profit is used as source for payment of profit distribution. In the event that the Fund incurs a loss from the Company’s
management of assets, the loss is covered from the reinvestment
fund which was created from earnings brought forward. If the reinvestment fund is not sufficient, the loss is covered by a reduction
in the Fund’s capital fund.
The Fund’s assets must not be used for the provision of loans, borrowings or gifts, to secure a third party’s obligation or to settle
a payable which is not related to the Fund’s management. This
provision does not affect Sections 26 and 27 of the Act.
When managing the Fund’s assets, contracts for the sale of investment securities and money market instruments, securities issued
by other collective investment funds and financial derivatives
which are not owned by the Fund at the moment of concluding the
respective contracts, must not be entered into.
The Company can accept loans and borrowings for the maximum
of six months when managing the Fund’s assets, to cover temporary needs related to the management of the Fund’s assets or
purchases of participation certificates. The volume of the received
loans and borrowings must not exceed 10 percent of the value of
the Fund’s assets.
Payment of Profit Distribution
The profit distribution is paid from the Fund’s total accounting
profit after tax. If a profit amount to be distributed exceeds an
amount corresponding to 4.5 percent of the Fund’s equity as at
31 December of the accounting period preceding the accounting
period for which the profit is to be paid, a profit amount to be distributed will be reduced to a level equal to the 4.5 percent of the
Fund’s equity mentioned above.
The profit distribution is paid once a year. The decisive date for
the payment of profit distribution is the last day of February in
the year following the year for which profit distribution are paid.
The date of the initiation of payment of profit distribution for the
past financial year is 31 March of the following year provided that
the auditor approved the Fund’s annual financial statements. In the
event that this day is not a business day, the payment initiation date
is moved to the closest following business day.
Each participation certificate holder has the right to choose the
method of settlement with regard to the profit distribution to be
paid, i.e. either payment to a bank account selected by the participation certificate holder or transforming the share into other
mutual fund participation certificates. The profit distribution is not
paid out in cash. The participation certificate holder’s decision is
indicated in the instruction for the payment of profit distribution.
The bank account number or the participation certificate holder’s
decision on the method of the payment of profit distribution can
be changed through a new instruction for the payment of profit
distribution issued prior to the decisive date for the payment of
profit distribution.
If the transformation of the profit distribution into other participation certificates of the Fund has been agreed (a reinvestment of
profit distribution) in the instruction, it is deemed that the reinvested finances were credited to a current bank account of the Fund
at the date of initiation of profit distribution payment.
Pursuant to the Commercial Code, the right to the payment of profit
distribution is subject to the statute of limitations after a four-year
time limit has elapsed from the maturity date. After the four-year
time limit elapses, unpaid profit distribution will be used for the
payment of the current financial year profit distribution.
Change in the Fund’s Statute
Czech National Bank Resolution No. 2012/4586/570, dated 18
May 2012, which came into force on 5 June 2012: The changes to
the Funds statute related mainly to the duty of the asset investment
company to ensure that its statute is in accordance with the amendment to Act 189/2004 Coll., on collective investments (as ensuing
from the changes made by Act 188/2011 Coll.) and Decree No.
193/2011 Coll., on the minimum requisites of the statute and on
the conditions for the use of the name Short-Term Money Market
Fund and Money Market Fund. Investment objectives, the method
of investing and the risk profile of the Fund have not been changed
in the amendments referred to above.
Along with the change made to the statute, information was updated as to the list of funds managed by the Company (Article II
Paragraph 8 of the statute), in particular information on the managing parties of the asset management company (Appendix 1 to the
statute), information added on the performance of the mutual fund
for 2011 (Appendix 2 to the statute), information updated on the
total cost indicators for 2011, and the date on which the statute being signed was updated.
325
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., Smíšený fond – otevřený podílový fond, 2013 Annual Report
On the date the changes to the statute came into force the simple
statute of the Fund was replaced by a newly processed document
providing required key information for investors. Such key information for investors was processed in accordance with Commission (EU) Regulation No. 583/2012.
Czech National Bank Resolution No. 2012/8826/570, dated
14 September 2012, which came into force on 2 October 2012:
Changes to the statute involve supplementation of the exemption
under Section 29 Paragraph 1 of Act 189/2004 Coll., on collective
investment in Article III Paragraph 10 of the statute. This change
allows for investment of up to 50 % of the assets in the mutual fund
in investment securities and money market instruments that the
Czech Republic issued or for which it accepted a guarantee.
In light of this fact, Article IV of the statute describing the credit
risk was amended. The information given in Article III Paragraph
1 of the statute on the size of a neutral position of a portfolio element comprising state bonds was changed, namely from the current 60 % to 70 % of the assets of the mutual fund, and the information on the synthetic indicator of the risk profile in Article IV
Paragraph 2 of the statute was updated.
As at 1 February 2013, information on Fund`s 2012 performance
was published within the document Key investors information.
(According to the article 23, section 3 of Council Regulation (EC)
no. 583/2010, the performance must be updated within the Key investors information up to 35 days after the previous calendar year
end.)
The updated text of the Funds statute was approved by the Investment company`s board of directors as at 10 April 2013. The
changes in the statute text related to an update of the list of managed funds, update of the information on the length of professional
experience of Investment company management, addition of information on Fund’s performance and the Fund`s benchmark`s
performance, an update of information on total expense ratio for
2012 and update of the date of the signature. These updates were
not subject to preliminary approval from Czech national bank (according to the section 84 (a), subsection 5 of 189/2004 Coll., On
collective investment schemes). The shareholders could access the
updated text of the Statute and Key investors information as of
10 April 2013 on http://www.iscs.cz/, at the distributor’s branches
(Ceska sporitelna, a. s.) and at the Investment company seat.
Legislative change
Act No 240/2013 Coll., On Management Companies and Investment Funds became effective as of 19 August 2013. Rules stated
by this act must be implemented by management companies and
investment funds by 22 July 2014. In 2013, the Fund`s management was subject to the rules of the Act No. 189/2004 Coll., On
collective investment schemes. The new rules will be applied as
of 2014.
2. Basis of Preparation
The financial statements have been prepared on the basis of underlying accounting records maintained in accordance with Accounting Act No. 563/1991 Coll., and applicable regulations, decrees and internal standards in compliance with and in the scope
defined in Czech Finance Ministry Regulation No. 501/2002 of
6 November 2002, as subsequently amended, which sets out the
overall framework for the presentation of the financial statements,
and guidelines for the structure and minimum requirements for the
content of the financial statements of banks and certain financial
institutions, and Czech Accounting Standards for Financial Institutions, which establish the accounting principles and policies.
The basis of preparation and the accounting policies have been
consistently applied during 2013 and 2012.
The Fund is obliged to comply with the regulatory requirements
of the Act.
The financial statements are based on the accrual principle, that is,
transactions and other events are recognised in the accounting period in which they occur, regardless of when the related monetary
flow arises. The financial statements are presented in compliance
with general accounting principles, specifically the accrual principle, the prudence concept and the going concern assumption.
The financial statements contain the balance sheet, profit and loss
account, statement of changes in equity, and notes to the financial
statements.
The presentation of the financial statements requires that the
Company makes estimates which have an impact on the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities as at the date of the financial statements as well as expenses and income in the relevant accounting
period. These estimates are based on information available as at
the date of the financial statements and may differ from the actual
results.
As a result of continued market volatility since the start of the
global financial crisis, the Fund may be exposed to increased risk,
specifically due to the uncertainty regarding possible asset impairments and future developments on the market. The financial
statements have been prepared based on the current best estimates
using all relevant and available information as at the date of the
financial statements.
These financial statements are unconsolidated.
All amounts are stated in thousands of Czech crowns (CZK), unless indicated otherwise.
Explanation Added for Translation into English
These financial statements are presented on the basis of accounting
principles and standards generally accepted in the Czech Republic.

Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., Smíšený fond – otevřený podílový fond, 2013 Annual Report
Certain accounting practices applied by the Company that conform with generally accepted accounting principles and standards
in the Czech Republic may not conform with generally accepted
accounting principles in other countries.
Realised capital gains or losses are recorded in the profit and loss
account within ‘Profit or loss from financial operations’.
3. Accounting Policies
Receivables and Payables
Accrued interest relating to assets is included within the total balance of these assets.
Purchases and sales of securities are recognised using trade date
accounting provided that the period between the trade date and the
fulfilment of the commitment arising from the contract does not
exceed a period typical for the relevant type of transaction.
The Fund records receivables arising from its transactions with
securities and other operating receivables at their nominal value,
while receivables from positive fair values of derivatives are recorded at the fair value of the derivatives at the balance sheet date.
Pursuant to the prudence principle, provisions are created based on
the aging of receivables.
The transaction recognition date for derivative contracts is:
a) the date upon which the related contract was entered into;
b) the date when the fulfilment was delivered based on the relevant
contract.
The Fund records payables arising from its transactions with securities and operating payables at their nominal value, while payables from negative fair values of derivatives are recorded at the fair
value of the derivatives at the balance sheet date.
The transaction recognition date can also be the date when money
in circulation is paid or received, the date when foreign currency is
purchased or sold, the date when a payment is made, the date when
ownership is acquired or terminated, when a receivable or payable
arises, changes or ceases to exist, when assets move within an accounting entity, and the date when other matters to be included
in the accounting records occur, or when the documents supporting these other matters are available, or when other matters are
a consequence of internal conditions of the accounting entity and/
or special regulations.
Financial Derivatives and Hedging Transactions
Transaction Recognition Date
Securities
In accordance with the Fund’s strategy, all securities are classified
as securities at fair value through profit or loss. During the accounting period, securities are re-measured at fair value on a daily
basis pursuant to the Finance Ministry Regulation No. 194/2011
Coll., on more detailed regulation of certain rules in collective investment (the “Decree”), as amended.
The securities of the Fund are accounted for as securities at fair
value through profit or loss. The fair value of the securities is determined in accordance with the International Financial Reporting
Standards with an exception, that an average price between the
most favourable binding offer and demand (MID price) is used
for bonds.
Pursuant to the Regulation, securities are valued at the price quoted
on a public market which is adjusted, as appropriate, to reflect the
rules set out in the Regulation. If the market value is unavailable,
the Fund uses a value determined by the Company using valuation models based on discounted future cash flows according to
the yield curve calculated using the Reuters and Kondor+ systems.
Securities are measured at cost upon initial recognition using the
weighted average method. The acquisition cost includes direct
transaction costs related to the acquisition of securities.
In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into hedging
contracts with financial derivatives to hedge against interest rate
and foreign currency exposures associated with its transactions on
financial markets. The method of fair value hedges is applied to
hedging derivatives.
The Fund designates certain derivatives as hedges provided that
the following criteria are met:
– the Fund has developed a risk management strategy;
– at the inception of the hedge, the hedging relationship is formally documented, the documentation identifies the hedged
item and the hedging instrument, and it defines the risk that
is being hedged and the approach to establishing whether the
hedge is effective; and
– the hedge is effective, that is, changes in the fair value or cash
flows of the hedged item are almost fully offset by changes in
the fair value or cash flows of the hedging instrument and the
results are within a range of 80 percent to 125 percent.
Nominal values of derivative financial instruments are recognised
in the off-balance sheet accounts. Changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as hedges (see above) are
recorded as income or expense. Changes in the fair value of the
hedging derivatives attributable to the risk hedged are recognised
in the same income or expense accounts as differences from revaluation of a hedged instrument.
All financial derivatives are recorded as assets when the fair value
is positive and as liabilities when the fair value is negative. Fair
values are derived from valuation models.
Derivatives that are not designated as hedging derivatives are
treated as trading derivatives. These derivatives are measured at
fair value on a daily basis and gains and losses on revaluation are
posted to derivative expense and income accounts.
327
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., Smíšený fond – otevřený podílový fond, 2013 Annual Report
Certain derivatives are embedded in compound financial instruments, which comprise the host instrument and the derivative. Pursuant to the applicable regulations, the Fund recognises changes in
assets and liabilities arising from the movements in rates or prices
of securities or changes in exchange rates through expense and income accounts. Given that the assets of the Fund are valued at fair
value and changes of fair values are reported within expenses and
income from derivatives, embedded derivatives are not accounted
for separately.
Income Tax
Under effective tax regulations, the income tax rate applicable to
mutual funds is 5 percent.
Deferred Tax
Deferred tax is provided using the liability method on all temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities reported in the balance sheet and their value for tax purposes.
Deferred tax assets are recognised only up to the amount of probable future taxable income against which the deferred tax asset can
be offset.
Foreign Currency Translations
Foreign currencies are translated using the exchange rate promulgated by the Czech National Bank as at the relevant date. As at the
balance sheet date, assets and liabilities denominated in foreign
currencies are translated on the same basis.
Foreign exchange rate gains and losses from the daily translation
of assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are posted to expense
or income accounts.
Capital Funds
The selling price of participation certificates is calculated as a proportion of the Fund’s net assets and the relevant number of participation certificates. Participation certificates are sold to investors
using the selling price determined on a daily basis.
Subsequent Events
The impact of events that occurred between the balance sheet date
and the date of the financial statements preparation is recognized in
the financial statements provided these events provide additional
evidence about conditions that existed at the date of the balance
sheet.
If material events reflecting the facts occurring after the balance
sheet date happened between the balance sheet date and the date
of the financial statements preparation the consequences of these
events are disclosed in the notes to the financial statements but not
recognized in the financial statements.
4. Risk Management
Credit Risk
In accordance with the Statute and the investment strategy, the
Company establishes rules and policies for selecting investment
instruments such that the overall credit risk profile of allocated investments is consistent with the characteristics of the Fund. New
types of instruments are approved on a case by case basis by the
risk management function together with the specification of limits
for positions pertaining to these instruments. Specific emphasis is
placed on an appropriate rating structure and a relatively detailed
diversification of portfolios (especially in relation to interest bearing securities).
Market Risk
The Fund uses a wide range of tools to eliminate risk exposures
attached to its portfolios. Significant attention is paid to market
risks. Apart from statutory restrictions, the Fund is subject to a set
of internal limits having a direct impact on the FX exposure, interest rate exposure (the modified duration range of the Fund), equity
allocation on individual markets according to their volatility, portfolio rating structure (see above), and other characteristics of the
Fund. The relevant limits are appropriately applied to correspond
with the type of the Fund.
Share Premium
Share premium is the difference between the nominal value of all
participation certificates and their carrying amounts as at the date
of their issue or purchase.
Interest Income and Expense and Dividend
Income
Interest income and expense are recognised using the accrual principle.
Dividend income is recognised as at the date when the right to
receive the payment is established (ex-dividend date). Dividend income from domestic securities is presented after withholding tax.
Dividend income from foreign securities is presented gross with
the applicable taxes presented within Tax on foreign dividends (see
note 5.14.).
Whenever the Fund purchases new types of instruments, these instruments are first analysed to assess the potential credit risk, as
well as the market risk that the instruments might bring to or help
eliminate from the portfolio. Subsequently, their appropriateness
and, if appropriate, the acceptable proportion of these instruments
in the portfolio is evaluated.
The level of the Fund’s market risk exposure is measured using the
Value at Risk (“VaR”).
The VaR for the Company’s Funds is calculated by the Central
Risk Management Department of Česká spořitelna using the historical simulation method in the K + KvaR system.
Set out below are relative monthly values of the VaR in percentage
terms for individual types of risks:

Global VaR
Foreign currency VaR
Interest rate VaR
Equity VaR
The average VaR is calculated as an average of daily VaR values in
years 2013 and 2012 respectively.
The Fund monitors Value at Risk globally and also broken down to
Foreign Currency VaR, Interest Rate VaR and Equity VaR. Based
on the above values, the Fund identifies critical risk segments. This
identification influences the reinvestment process. The limits set
the maximum acceptable VaR for the Fund.
The Equity VaR also reflects the risk related to the holding of mutual funds’ participation certificates (including funds of money
market and bond funds).
Adherence to all the above limits and their effectiveness is monitored and assessed on an ongoing basis. The limits are reviewed,
if necessary.
The portfolio’s risk of unfavourable development of foreign exchange rates, interest rates, and other market factors is hedged, to
an appropriate extent, by financial derivates. Financial derivatives
are traded on the OTC market as this market enables the trading
of contracts whose parameters and nature appropriately satisfy the
requirements of a hedge. Portfolios primarily include currency
swaps, currency forwards and interest rate swaps.
Liquidity Risk
Another monitored risk is the liquidity risk. Liquidity risk is a risk
that the Fund will not have enough available resources to meet its
obligations arising from financial contracts. Liquidity is monitored
and managed based on expected cash flows, with appropriate adjustments made to the structure of securities and term placements
portfolios.
Pursuant to the Act, the Company is obliged to repurchase a participation certificate without undue delay but not later than 15 business days from the date when the repurchase right is claimed. Given that the Fund holds securities traded on foreign stock exchanges
which can be realised within a few days, the Fund’s inability to
meet its obligations due to lack of liquidity is unlikely.
Pursuant to Section 12 of the Collective Investment Act, the Company can suspend issues and purchases of the Fund’s participation
certificates for a maximum of three months, if necessary due to the
protection of rights or the participation certificate holder’ interests
protected by law. Issuing and purchasing participation certificates
can be suspended particularly at the end or beginning of the calendar year, in the event of natural disasters, upon very strong fluctuations on financial markets and upon high requirements for the
sales or purchases of participation certificates provided they could
endanger the Fund’s assets.
The quantitative information about the residual maturity of assets
and liabilities is given in Note 5.16.

5.4 Equity
The Fund has no share capital. The nominal value of one participation certificate is CZK 1,000. The total nominal value of all participation
certificates is posted to ‘Capital funds’.
Share premium arising from the difference between the nominal and selling values of the participation certificates is recorded separately.
The Fund accounts for share premium upon the sale of participation certificates as well as upon their repurchase.
The selling price of the participation certificate is determined as the share of the Fund’s net assets and the number of issued participation
certificates.
The value of a participation certificate as at the last trading date in 2013 was CZK 841.5033 (2012: CZK 795.3785). This is the most recent
announced value of the participation certificate for the year, for which purchases and repurchases of the participation certificates of the Fund
were undertaken. This value differs insignificantly from the carrying value of a participation certificate as at 31 December 2013 because of
the addition of some items during the financial statements preparation.
In line with the Fund’s Statute, the part of the profit for 2013 of CZK 100,620 thousand will be transferred to the reinvestment fund within
‘Other funds from profit’, the part of the profit of CZK 96,451 thousand will be used to pay out the withholding tax of CZK 13,341 thousand
and net allocation of the profit to the participation certificates holders of CZK 83,110 thousand.
In line with the Fund’s Statue, the profit for 2012 of CZK 69,202 CZK was used to pay out the withholding tax of CZK 3,965 thousand and
net allocation of the profit to the participation certificates holders of CZK 65,237 thousand in the form of the new participation certificates
issued on 2 April 2013.

České spořitelny, a. s., OSOBNÍ PORTFOLIO 4 – otevřený podílový fond, see Note 1 to the financial statements.
Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management of Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the Czech Republic, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the
Act on Auditors and International Standards on Auditing as amended by implementation guidance of the Chamber of Auditors of the Czech
Republic. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance
whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including an assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements,
whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation
and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the
purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness
of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Investiční společnost České
spořitelny, a. s., OSOBNÍ PORTFOLIO 4 – otevřený podílový fond, as at 31 December 2013, and its financial performance for the year then

Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., OSOBNÍ PORTFOLIO 4 – otevřený podílový fond, 2013 Annual Report
Notes to the Financial Statements
for the year ended 31 December 2013
1. Organisation and Description of
Business
The participation certificates of the Fund are available both in the
Czech Republic and in other EU member countries.
Formation and Description of the Business
Investment Policy of the Fund
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., Fond cíleného
výnosu – otevřený podílový fond (hereinafter the “Fund”) is an
accounting unit without legal entity status, formed by Investiční
společnost České spořitelny, a. s. (hereinafter the “Company”) in
compliance with the Collective Investment Act No. 189/2004 Coll.
(hereinafter the “Act”).
The objective of the investment policy is to provide participation
certificate holders with a long-term appreciation of participation
certificates primarily through investments in securities of collective investment bond and equity funds. Specifically, a long-term
aim is to achieve an average annual appreciation which would exceed the level reached by the Czech government bonds. In this
respect, a maximum acceptable loss incurred over one-year period
should be most likely limited to 3 percent. However, the Fund primarily seeks to install a 100 percent protection of invested funds
for every four-year period, always beginning from 1 June.
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., Fond cíleného výnosu – otevřený podílový fond was formed based upon the Resolution of the Czech National Bank, which came into legal effect on
15 May 2009. The Fund commenced its activities on 1 June 2009.
As from 1 February 2010, the name of the Fund has been changed
to Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., OSOBNÍ PORTFOLIO 4 – otevřený podílový fond.
Pursuant to a concluded contract, Česká spořitelna, a. s. acts as the
depository of the Fund.
The Fund is managed by the Company. In compliance with the
Act, the Company is responsible for the management of the assets
of the Fund, which involves the administration and handling of
the assets.
The Fund is a special fund of funds which collects funds from the
public.
According to the classification binding for the members of the
Capital Market Association (hereinafter the “AKAT CR”) as at the
date of the approval of this Statute, the Fund can be defined as the
fund of the funds.

Principal Business
The Company collects funds from individuals and legal entities by
issuing participation certificates with the purpose of their collective investment on local and foreign financial markets. No restrictions are placed on the number of participation certificates for issue
and the period for which the Fund is established. The Company reserves the right to temporary halt the issuing of participation certificates for no longer than three months in compliance with the Act.
Finances collected in the Fund are invested predominantly in securities of collective investment funds.
The following types of assets can be purchased and added to the
Fund’s assets: bank deposits, domestic and foreign debt securities,
domestic and foreign shares, securities of the collective investment
funds, money market instruments, securities with right to acquire
securities and financial derivative instruments.
The limits of the Fund are adhered to on the basis of the Act, or
they are regulated in the Fund’s Statute in compliance with the Act.
The Fund uses financial derivatives to hedge against currency exposures.
The Company can use financial derivatives to effectively manage
the Fund’s assets. Efficient asset management represents transactions for the purpose of decreasing risk, decreasing costs or achieving sufficient income for the Fund provided that the risk is demonstrably low. The exposure from these transactions must be fully
covered by the Fund’s assets so that liabilities arising from these
transactions are fulfilled.
The Company can accept loans and borrowings for the maximum
of six months when managing the Fund’s assets, to cover temporary needs related to the management of the Fund’s assets or
purchases of participation certificates. The volume of the received
loans and borrowings must not exceed 10 percent of the value of
the Fund’s assets.

May 2012, which came into force on 5 June 2012: The changes to

was published within the document Key investors information.

changes in the statute text related to an update of the list of managed funds, update of the information on the length of professional
experience of Investment company management, addition of information on Fund’s performance and the Fund`s benchmark`s
performance, an update of information on total expense ratio for

by this act must be implemented by investment companies and investment funds by 22 July 2014. In 2013, the Fund`s management
was subject to the rules of the Act No. 189/2004 Coll., On collective investment schemes. The new rules will be applied as of 2014.
2. Basis of Preparation
The financial statements have been prepared on the basis of underlying accounting records maintained in accordance with Accounting Act No. 563/1991 Coll., and applicable regulations, decrees and internal standards in compliance with and in the scope
defined in Czech Finance Ministry Regulation No. 501/2002 of
6 November 2002, as subsequently amended, which sets out the
overall framework for the presentation of the financial statements,
and guidelines for the structure and minimum requirements for the
content of the financial statements of banks and certain financial
institutions, and Czech Accounting Standards for Financial Institutions, which establish the accounting principles and policies.
The Fund is obliged to comply with the regulatory requirements
of the Act.
The financial statements are presented in compliance with general
accounting principles, specifically the accrual principle, the prudence concept and the going concern assumption.
The financial statements contain the balance sheet, profit and loss
account, statement of changes in equity, and notes to the financial
statements.
The presentation of the financial statements requires that the
Company makes estimates which have an impact on the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities as at the date of the financial statements as well as expenses and income in the relevant accounting
period. These estimates are based on information available as at
the date of the financial statements and may differ from the actual
results.
As a result of continued market volatility since the start of the
global financial crisis, the Fund may be exposed to increased risk,
specifically due to the uncertainty regarding possible asset impairments and future developments on the market. The financial
statements have been prepared based on the current best estimates
using all relevant and available information as at the date of the
financial statements.
These financial statements are unconsolidated.
All amounts are stated in thousands of Czech crowns (CZK), unless indicated otherwise.
Explanation Added for Translation into English
These financial statements are presented on the basis of accounting
principles and standards generally accepted in the Czech Republic.
Certain accounting practices applied by the Company that conform with generally accepted accounting principles and standards
in the Czech Republic may not conform with generally accepted
accounting principles in other countries.

3. Accounting Policies
Receivables and Payables
Purchases and sales of securities are recognised using trade date
accounting provided that the period between the trade date and the
fulfilment of the commitment arising from the contract does not
exceed a period typical for the relevant type of transaction.
The Fund records receivables arising from its transactions with
securities, receivables from positive fair values of derivatives and
other operating receivables. The Fund records payables arising
from its transactions with securities and payables from negative
fair values of derivatives. Pursuant to the prudence principle, provisions are created based on the aging of receivables.
The transaction recognition date for derivative contracts is:
a) the date upon which the related contract was entered into;
b) the date when fulfilment was delivered based on the relevant
contract.
The Fund records payables arising from its transactions with securities and operating payables at their nominal value, while payables from negative fair values of derivatives are recorded at the fair
value of the derivatives at the balance sheet date.
The transaction recognition date can also be the date when money
in circulation is paid or received, the date when foreign currency is
purchased or sold, the date when a payment is made, the date when
ownership is acquired or terminated, when a receivable or payable
arises, changes or ceases to exist, when assets move within an accounting entity, and the date when other matters to be included
in the accounting records occur, or when the documents supporting these other matters are available, or when other matters are
a consequence of internal conditions of the accounting entity and/
or special regulations.
Financial Derivatives and Hedging Transactions
Transaction Recognition Date
Securities
In accordance with the Fund’s strategy, all securities are classified
as ‘securities at fair value through profit or loss. During the accounting period, securities are re-measured at fair value on a daily
basis pursuant to the Finance Ministry Regulation No. 194/2011
Coll., on more detailed regulation of certain rules in collective investment (the “Decree”), as amended.
The securities of the Fund are accounted for as securities at fair
value through profit or loss. The fair value of the securities is determined in accordance with the International Financial Reporting
Standards with an exception, that an average price between the
most favourable binding offer and demand (MID price) is used
for bonds.
Pursuant to the Regulation, securities are valued at the price quoted
on a public market which is adjusted, as appropriate, to reflect the
rules set out in the Regulation. If the market value is unavailable,
the Fund uses a value determined by the Company using valuation models based on discounted future cash flows according to
the yield curve calculated using the Reuters and Kondor+ systems.
Securities are measured at cost upon initial recognition using the
weighted average method. The acquisition cost includes direct
transaction costs related to the acquisition of securities.
Realised capital gains or losses are recorded in the profit and loss
account within ‘Profit or loss from financial operations’.
Accrued interest relating to assets is included within the total balance of these assets.
In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into hedging contracts with financial derivatives to hedge against foreign currency
exposures associated with its transactions on financial markets.
The method of fair value hedges is applied to hedging derivatives.
The Fund designates certain derivatives as hedges provided that
the following criteria are met:
– the Fund has developed a risk management strategy;
– at the inception of the hedge, the hedging relationship is formally documented, the documentation identifies the hedged
item and the hedging instrument, and it defines the risk that
is being hedged and the approach to establishing whether the
hedge is effective; and
– the hedge is effective, that is, changes in the fair value or cash
flows of the hedged item are almost fully offset by changes in
the fair value or cash flows of the hedging instrument and the
results are within a range of 80 percent to 125 percent.
Nominal values of derivative financial instruments are recognised
in the off-balance sheet accounts. Changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as hedges (see above) are
recorded as income or expense. Changes in the fair value of the
hedging derivatives attributable to the risk hedged are recognised
in the same income or expense accounts as differences from revaluation of a hedged instrument.
All financial derivatives are recorded as assets when the fair value
is positive and as liabilities when the fair value is negative. Fair
values are derived from valuation models.
Derivatives that are not designated as hedging derivatives are
treated as trading derivatives. These derivatives are measured at
fair value on a daily basis through expense and income accounts.
Certain derivatives are embedded in compound financial instruments, which comprise the host instrument and the derivative. Pursuant to the applicable regulations, the Fund recognises changes in
assets and liabilities arising from the movements in rates or prices
of securities or changes in exchange rates through expense and
income accounts. Given that the assets of the Fund are valued at
fair value, embedded derivatives are not accounted for separately.

Income Tax
Under effective tax regulations, the income tax rate applicable to
mutual funds is 5 percent.
Deferred Tax
Deferred tax is provided using the liability method on all temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities reported in the balance sheet and their value for tax purposes.
Deferred tax assets are recognised only up to the amount of probable future taxable income against which the deferred tax asset can
be offset.
Foreign Currency Translations
Foreign currencies are translated using the exchange rate promulgated by the Czech National Bank as at the relevant date. As at the
balance sheet date, assets and liabilities denominated in foreign
currencies are translated on the same basis.
Foreign exchange rate gains and losses from the daily translation
of assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are posted to expense
or income accounts.
Capital Funds
The selling price of participation certificates is calculated as a proportion of the Fund’s net assets and the relevant number of participation certificates. Participation certificates are sold to qualified
investors using the selling price determined on a daily basis.
events are disclosed in the notes to the financial statements but not
recognized in the financial statements.
4. Risk Management
Credit Risk
In accordance with the Statute and the investment strategy, the
Company establishes rules and policies for selecting investment
instruments such that the overall credit risk profile of allocated investments is consistent with the characteristics of the Fund. New
types of instruments are approved on a case by case basis by the
risk management function together with the specification of limits
for positions pertaining to these instruments. Specific emphasis is
placed on an appropriate rating structure and a relatively detailed
diversification of portfolios (especially in relation to interest bearing securities).
Market Risk
The Fund uses a wide range of tools to eliminate risk exposures
attached to its portfolios. Significant attention is paid to market
risks. Apart from statutory restrictions, the Fund is subject to a set
of internal limits having a direct impact on the FX exposure, interest rate exposure (the modified duration range of the Fund), equity
allocation on individual markets according to their volatility, portfolio rating structure (see above), and other characteristics of the
Fund. The relevant limits are appropriately applied to correspond
with the type of the Fund.
Share Premium
Share premium is the difference between the nominal value of all
participation certificates and their market value.
Interest Income and Expense and Dividend
Income
Interest income and expense are recognised using the accrual principle.
Dividend income is recognised as at the date when the right to
receive the payment is established (ex-dividend date). Dividend income from domestic securities is presented after withholding tax.
Dividend income from foreign securities is presented gross with
the applicable taxes presented within taxes on foreign dividends
(see note 5.16).
Whenever the Fund purchases new types of instruments, these instruments are first analysed to assess the potential credit risk, as
well as the market risk that the instruments might bring to or help
eliminate from the portfolio. Subsequently, their appropriateness
and, if appropriate, the acceptable proportion of these instruments
in the portfolio is evaluated.
The level of the Fund’s market risk exposure is measured using
the Value at Risk (“VaR”). With effect from 1 August 2006, the
VaR for the Company’s Funds is calculated by the Central Risk
Management Department of Česká spořitelna using the historical
simulation method in the K + KvaR system.
Set out below are relative monthly values of the VaR in percentage
terms for individual types of risks:
Subsequent Events
The impact of events that occurred between the balance sheet date
and the date of the financial statements preparation is recognized in
the financial statements provided these events provide additional
evidence about conditions that existed at the date of the balance
sheet.

Global VaR
Currency VaR
Interest rate VaR
Equity VaR
The average VaR is calculated as average of daily VaR values in
years 2013 and 2012 respectively.
The Fund monitors Value at Risk globally and also broken down to
Foreign Currency VaR, Interest Rate VaR and Equity VaR. Based
on the above values, the Fund identifies critical risk segments. This
identification influences the reinvestment process. The limits set
the maximum acceptable VaR for the Fund.
The Equity VaR also reflects the risk related to the holding of mutual funds’ participation certificates (including funds of money
market and bond funds).
Adherence to all the above limits and their effectiveness is monitored and assessed on an ongoing basis. The limits are reviewed,
if necessary.
The portfolio’s risk of unfavourable development of foreign exchange rates, interest rates, and other market factors is hedged, to
an appropriate extent, by financial derivatives. Financial derivatives are traded on the OTC market as this market enables the trading of contracts whose parameters and nature appropriately satisfy
the requirements of a hedge. Portfolios primarily include currency
swaps, currency forwards and interest rate swaps.
Liquidity Risk
Another monitored risk is the liquidity risk. Liquidity risk is a risk
that the Fund will not have enough available resources to meet its
obligations arising from financial contracts. Liquidity is monitored
and managed based on expected cash flows, with appropriate adjustments made to the structure of securities and term placements
portfolios.
Pursuant to the Act, the Company is obliged to repurchase a participation certificate without undue delay but not later than 15 business days from the date when the repurchase right is claimed. Given that the Fund holds securities traded on foreign stock exchanges
which can be realised within a few days, the Fund’s inability to
meet its obligations due to lack of liquidity is unlikely.
Pursuant to Section 12 of the Collective Investment Act, the Company can suspend issues and purchases of the Fund’s participation
certificates for a maximum of three months, if necessary due to the
protection of rights or the participation certificate holders’ interests
protected by law. Issuing and purchasing participation certificates
can be suspended particularly at the end or beginning of the calendar year, in the event of natural disasters, upon very strong fluctuations on financial markets and upon high requirements for the
sales or purchases of participation certificates provided they could
endanger the Fund’s assets.
The quantitative information about the residual maturity of assets
and liabilities is given in Note 5.18.

5.5 Equity
The Fund has no share capital. The nominal value of one participation certificate is CZK 1. The total nominal value of all participation
certificates is posted to ‘Capital funds’.
Share premium arising from the difference between the nominal and selling values of the participation certificates is recorded separately.
The Fund accounts for share premium upon the sale of participation certificates as well as upon their repurchase.
The selling price of the participation certificate is determined as the share of the Fund’s net assets and the number of issued participation
certificates.
The value of a participation certificate as at the last trading date in 2013 totalled CZK 1.1184 (2012: CZK 1.1145). This is the most recent
announced value of the participation certificate for the year, for which purchases and repurchases of the participation certificates of the Fund
were undertaken. This value minimally differs from the accounting value of the participation certificate at the balance sheet date due to additional recognition of some items within the financial statements.
The profit for 2013 in the amount of CZK 6,688 thousand will be transferred to the reinvestment fund within ‘Other funds from profit’.
The profit for 2012 in the amount of CZK 81,939 thousand was transferred to the reinvestment fund within ‘Other funds from profit’.

Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management of Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the Czech Republic, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the
Act on Auditors and International Standards on Auditing as amended by implementation guidance of the Chamber of Auditors of the Czech
Republic. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance
whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including an assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements,
whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation
and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the
purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness
of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Investiční společnost České
spořitelny, a. s., PLUS – otevřený podílový fond, as at 31 December 2013, and its financial performance for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the Czech Republic.

Notes to the Financial Statements
for the year ended 31 December 2013
1. Organisation and Description
of Business
Following Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s.’s request,
the Czech National Bank approved the formation of a fund entitled
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., Plus – otevřený podílový fond. The decision came into legal effect on 16 February 2010.
The Fund commenced its activities on 1 March 2010.
certificates and to achieve an average annual appreciation which
would exceed the level reached by the Czech government bonds,
primarily through investments in collective investment bond and
equity funds. In this respect, a maximum acceptable loss incurred
over one-year period should be most likely limited to 5 percent.
The Fund primarily seeks to install a 100 percent protection of
invested funds (with no formal guarantee) for every six-year period, always beginning from 31 December. Currency, credit, interest rate and equity risks are actively managed using available
hedging instruments. The objective is achieved principally through
a continuous effort to maintain an optimal balance between the
stable and the dynamic components of the portfolio (bonds versus
investment instruments carrying the risk of equity or real estate
or alternative investments), resulting in the optimizing of future
income and expected risks.
Pursuant to a concluded contract, Česká spořitelna, a. s. acts as the
depository of the Fund.
The limits of the Fund are adhered to on the basis of the Act, or
they are regulated in the Fund’s Statute in compliance with the Act.
The Fund is managed by the Company. In compliance with the
Act, the Company is responsible for the management of the assets
of the Fund, which involves the administration and handling of
the assets.
Finances collected in the Fund are invested predominantly in securities of collective investment funds if such collective investment
funds distribute the risk connected to investments and meet other
obligations as set by the Act.
According to the classification binding for the members of the
Capital Market Association (hereinafter the “AKAT CR”) as at the
date of the approval of this Statute, the Fund can be defined as
a special fund of funds.
The portfolio of the Fund can also be expanded by purchasing
other investment instruments allowed by the Act for collective investment of a standard fund.
Formation and Description of the Business
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s., PLUS – otevřený
podílový fond (the “Fund” or “ISČS, a. s. – PLUS OPF”) is an
accounting entity without legal entity status, formed by Investiční
společnost České spořitelny, a. s. (the “Company”) in compliance
with the Collective Investment Act No. 189/2004 Coll. (the “Act”).
Registered Office
Investiční společnost České spořitelny, a. s.
PLUS – otevřený podílový fond
Prague 6, Evropská 2690/17
Principal Business
The participation certificates of the Fund are available in the Czech
Republic or in other EU member countries.
The Company collects funds from individuals and legal entities for
the Fund by issuing participation certificates with the purpose of
their collective investment on local and foreign financial markets.
No restrictions are placed on the number of participation certificates for issue and the period for which the Fund is established.
The Company reserves the right to temporary halt the issuing of
participation certificates for no longer than three months in compliance with the Act.
The Company can use financial derivatives to decrease risk, decrease costs or achieve sufficient income for the Fund provided
that the risk is demonstrably low.
Management Policy
The profit/(loss) is based on the difference between income and
expenses related to the management of the Fund’s assets.
The generated profit has been fully retained by the Fund, in the reinvestment fund, as a source for further investments, and increases
the participation certificate value. In the event that the Fund incurs
a loss from the Company’s management of assets, the loss is covered from the reinvestment fund which was created from earnings
brought forward. If the reinvestment fund is not sufficient, the loss
is covered by a reduction in the Fund’s capital fund.
The Fund’s assets must not be used for the provision of loans, borrowings or gifts, to secure a third party’s obligation or to settle
a payable which is not related to the Fund’s management.
Investment Policy of the Fund
The objective of the investment policy is to provide participation
certificate holders with a long-term appreciation of participation
When managing the Fund’s assets, contracts for the sale of investment securities and money market instruments, securities issued

by other collective investment funds and financial derivatives
which are not owned by the Fund at the moment of concluding the
respective contracts, must not be entered into.
The Company can accept loans and borrowings for the maximum
of six months when managing the Fund’s assets, to cover temporary needs related to the management of the Fund’s assets or
purchases of participation certificates. The volume of the received
loans and borrowings must not exceed 10 percent of the value of
the Fund’s assets.
Change in the Fund’s Statute
Czech National Bank Resolution No. 2012/4578/570, dated 18
May 2012, which came into force on 5 June 2012: The changes
to the Funds statute related mainly to the duty of the asset investment company to ensure that its statute is in accordance with the
amendment to Act 189/2004 Coll., on collective investments (as
ensuing from the changes made by Act 188/2011 Coll.) and Decree No. 193/2011 Coll., on the minimum requisites of the statute
and on the conditions for the use of the name Short-Term Money
Market Fund and Money Market Fund. ESPA Czech government
bond fund was replaced by ISCS Bond fund in statute for one particular title of purchased participation certificates with the limit of
35 percent (see article III Paragraph 10 of the statute). Investment
objectives, the method of investing and the risk profile of the Fund
have not been changed in the amendments referred to above.
Along with the change made to the statute, information was updated as to the list of funds managed by the Company (Article II
Paragraph 8 of the statute), in particular information on the managing parties of the asset management company (Appendix 1 to
the statute), information added on the performance of the Fund for
2011 (Appendix 2 to the statute), information updated on the total
cost indicators for 2011, and the date on which the statute being
signed was updated.
On the date the changes to the statute came into force the simple
statute of the Fund was replaced by a newly processed document
providing required key information for investors. Such key information for investors was processed in accordance with Government Regulation No. 189/2011 Coll.
As at 1 February 2013, information on Fund`s 2012 performance
was published within the document Key investors information.
(According to Paragraph 20 Article 3 of the Government Regulation No. 189/2011 the performance must be updated within the
Key investors information up to 35 days after the previous calendar year end.)
The updated text of the Funds statute was approved by the Investment company`s board of directors as at 10 April 2013. The
changes in the statute text related to an update of the list of managed funds, update of the information on the length of professional
experience of Investment company management, addition of information on Fund’s performance and the Fund`s benchmark`s
performance, an update of information on total expense ratio for
2012 and update of the date of the signature. These updates were
not subject to preliminary approval from Czech national bank (according to the section 84 (a), subsection 5 of 189/2004 Coll., On
collective investment schemes). The shareholders could access the
updated text of the Statute and Key investors information as of
10 April 2013 on http://www.iscs.cz/, at the distributor’s branches
(Ceska sporitelna, a. s.) and at the Investment company seat.
Legislative change
Act No 240/2013 Coll., On Management Companies and Investment Funds became effective as of 19 August 2013. Rules stated
by this act must be implemented by management companies and
investment funds by 22 July 2014. In 2013, the Fund`s management was subject to the rules of the Act No. 189/2004 Coll., On
collective investment schemes. The new rules will be applied as
of 2014.
2. Basis of Preparation
The financial statements have been prepared on the basis of underlying accounting records maintained in accordance with Accounting Act No. 563/1991 Coll., and applicable regulations, decrees and internal standards in compliance with and in the scope
defined in Czech Finance Ministry Regulation No. 501/2002 of
6 November 2002, as subsequently amended, which sets out the
overall framework for the presentation of the financial statements,
and guidelines for the structure and minimum requirements for the
content of the financial statements of banks and certain financial
institutions, and Czech Accounting Standards for Financial Institutions, which establish the accounting principles and policies.
The Fund is obliged to comply with the regulatory requirements
of the Act.
The financial statements are presented in compliance with general
accounting principles, specifically the accrual principle, the prudence concept and the going concern assumption.
The financial statements contain the balance sheet, profit and loss
account, statement of changes in equity, and notes to the financial
statements.
The presentation of the financial statements requires that the
Company makes estimates which have an impact on the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities as at the date of the financial statements as well as expenses and income in the relevant accounting
period. These estimates are based on information available as at

Transaction Recognition Date
Receivables and Payables
Purchases and sales of securities are recognised using trade date
accounting provided that the period between the trade date and the
fulfilment of the commitment arising from the contract does not
exceed a period typical for the relevant type of transaction.
The Fund records receivables arising from its transactions with
securities and other operating receivables at their nominal value,
while receivables from positive fair values of derivatives are recorded at the fair value of the derivatives at the balance sheet date.
Pursuant to the prudence principle, provisions are created based on
the aging of receivables.
The transaction recognition date for derivative contracts is:
a) the date upon which the related contract was entered into;
b) the date when the fulfilment was delivered based on the relevant
contract.
The transaction recognition date can also be the date when money
in circulation is paid or received, the date when foreign currency is
purchased or sold, the date when a payment is made, the date when
ownership is acquired or terminated, when a receivable or payable
arises, changes or ceases to exist, when assets move within an accounting entity, and the date when other matters to be included
in the accounting records occur, or when the documents supporting these other matters are available, or when other matters are
a consequence of internal conditions of the accounting entity and/
or special regulations.
Securities

basis pursuant to the Finance Ministry Regulation No. 194/2011
Coll., on more detailed regulation of certain rules in collective investment (the “Decree”), as amended.
The securities of the Fund are accounted for as securities at fair
value through profit or loss. The fair value of the securities is determined in accordance with the International Financial Reporting
Standards with an exception, that an average price between the
The Fund records payables arising from its transactions with securities and operating payables at their nominal value, while payables from negative fair values of derivatives are recorded at the fair
value of the derivatives at the balance sheet date.
Financial Derivatives and Hedging Transactions
In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into hedging
contracts with financial derivatives to hedge against interest rate
and foreign currency exposures associated with its transactions on
financial markets. The method of fair value hedges is applied to
hedging derivatives.
The Fund designates certain derivatives as hedges provided that
the following criteria are met:
– the Fund has developed a risk management strategy;
– at the inception of the hedge, the hedging relationship is formally documented, the documentation identifies the hedged
item and the hedging instrument, and it defines the risk that
is being hedged and the approach to establishing whether the
hedge is effective; and
– the hedge is effective, that is, changes in the fair value or cash
flows of the hedged item are almost fully offset by changes in
the fair value or cash flows of the hedging instrument and the
results are within a range of 80 percent to 125 percent.

Nominal values of derivative financial instruments are recognised
in the off-balance sheet accounts. Changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as hedges (see above) are
recorded as income or expense. Changes in the fair value of the
hedging derivatives attributable to the risk hedged are recognised
in the same income or expense accounts as differences from revaluation of a hedged instrument.
All financial derivatives are recorded as assets when the fair value
is positive and as liabilities when the fair value is negative. Fair
values are derived from valuation models.
Derivatives that are not designated as hedging derivatives are
treated as trading derivatives. These derivatives are measured at
fair value on a daily basis and gains and losses on revaluation are
posted to derivative expense and income accounts.
Certain derivatives are embedded in compound financial instruments, which comprise the host instrument and the derivative. Pursuant to the applicable regulations, the Fund recognises changes in
assets and liabilities arising from the movements i
