NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2009              
                                                                                
1.    Accounting policies                                                       
     The NewFunds Collective Investment Scheme ("the Scheme") is an open-

     The Scheme`s objectives are detailed as part of the Financial Risk         
     Management below. The scheme is managed by NewFunds (Proprietary)          
     Limited which outsources most of its main functions to Absa Capital,       
a division of Absa Bank Limited.                                           
                                                                                
     The financial information incorporates the principle accounting            
     policies set out below which have been applied consistently by the         
Scheme.                                                                    
                                                                                
1.1   Statement of compliance                                                   
     The complete set of financial statements are prepared in accordance        
with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) issued by          
     the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and in the             
     manner required by the Collective Investment Scheme Control Act of         
     South Africa.                                                              

     This summary has been prepared in accordance with the recognition          
     and measurement requirements of IFRS and the presentation and              
     disclosure requirements of IAS34 - Interim Financial Reporting.            

1.2   Basis of measurement                                                      
     The financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost           
     basis, except where specifically indicated otherwise in the                
accounting policies.                                                       
                                                                                
1.3   Functional and presentation currency                                      
     Items included in the financial statements of the Scheme are               
measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in         
     which the entity operates (the functional currency). The Scheme`s          
     financial statements are presented in South African rand, which is         
     the Scheme`s functional and presentation currency.                         

1.4   Financial instruments                                                     
     Non-derivative financial instruments                                       
     Non-derivative financial instruments comprise investments in equity        
and debt securities, trade and other receivables, cash and cash            
     equivalents and trade and other payables.                                  
                                                                                
     Initial recognition and measurement                                        
Financial instruments are initially measured at fair value plus any        
     directly attributable transaction costs.  Directly attributable            
     transaction costs are only included in the initial carrying amount         
     of financial instruments that are not designated through profit and        
loss. Regular way purchases and sales of financial instruments are         
     accounted for on trade date.  All other financial instruments are          
     recognised when the entity first becomes a party to the contractual        
     provisions of the instrument. Subsequent measurement of non-               
derivative financial instruments is described below.                       
                                                                                
     Classification and subsequent measurement                                  
                                                                                
The classification of financial instruments at initial recognition         
     depends on the purpose for which the financial instruments were            
     acquired and their characteristics.                                        
                                                                                
Financial instruments designated at fair value through profit or           
     loss                                                                       
     Financial instruments are classified in this category if they meet         
     one or more of the criteria set out below, at initial recognition          
and are so designated by management. The Scheme may only designate         
     financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss when the        
     designation results in more relevant information; because either:          
     - It eliminates or significantly reduces measurement or recognition        
inconsistencies that would arise from measuring financial assets or        
     financial liabilities, or recognising gains or losses on them, on          
     different bases; or                                                        
     - Groups of financial assets, financial liabilities or combinations        
thereof are managed, and their performance evaluated, on a fair            
     value basis in accordance with a documented risk management or             
     investment strategy, and information about the Scheme`s financial          
     instruments is reported to management on that basis. The Scheme has        
documented risk management and investment strategies designed to           
     manage such assets at fair value, taking into consideration the            
     relationship of assets to liabilities in a way that mitigates market       
     risks.                                                                     

     The Scheme can also designate at fair value through profit or loss         
     if it relates to a contract containing one or more embedded                
     derivatives that significantly modify the cash flows resulting from        
that contract.                                                             
                                                                                
     The fair value designation, once made, is irrevocable. Measurement         
     is initially at fair value, with directly attributable transaction         
costs taken directly to profit or loss. Subsequently, the fair value       
     is measured, and gains or losses from changes therein are recognised       
     in the profit or loss.                                                     
                                                                                
Financial instruments designated at fair value through profit or           
     loss are done as this will result in more relevant information             
     because it significantly reduces a measurement or recognition              
     inconsistency and is managed on a fair value basis.                        

     Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash balances and call deposits         
     with an original maturity of three months or less measured at              
     amortised cost at balance sheet date.                                      

     Trade and other receivables are measured at amortised cost using the       
     effective interest method, less any impairment losses.                     
                                                                                
Trade and other payables are measured at amortised cost using the          
     effective interest method.                                                 
                                                                                
     Other non-derivative financial instruments are measured at amortised       
cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment              
     losses.                                                                    
                                                                                
     Amortised cost is calculated by taking into account any discount or        
premium on acquisition and fees and costs that are an integral part        
     of the effective interest rate. The amortisation is included in            
     "Interest income" in the statement of comprehensive income. The            
     carrying amount of impaired loans on the statement of financial            
position is reduced through the use of identified or unidentified          
     impairment.                                                                
                                                                                
1.5   Derecognition of financial instruments                                    
The Scheme derecognises a financial asset when and only when:              
     - The contractual rights to the cash flows arising from the                
     financial assets have expired or been forfeited by the Scheme; or          
     - It transfers the financial asset including substantially all the         
risks and rewards of ownership of the assets; or                           
     - It transfers the financial asset, neither retaining nor                  
     transferring substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of       
     the asset, but no longer retains control of the asset.                     

     A financial liability is derecognised when and only when the               
     liability is extinguished, that is, when the obligation specified in       
     the contract is discharged, cancelled or has expired.                      

     On derecognition of a financial asset in its entirety, the                 
     difference between the carrying amount and the sum of the                  
     consideration received (including any new asset obtained less any          
new liability assumed) is recognised in profit or loss.                    
                                                                                
     The difference between the carrying amount of a financial liability        
     (or part thereof) extinguished or transferred to another party and         
the consideration paid, including any non-cash assets transferred or       
     liabilities assumed, is recognised in profit or loss.                      
                                                                                
1.6   Impairments                                                               
A financial asset is assessed at each reporting date to determine          
     whether there is any objective evidence that it is impaired. A             
     financial asset is considered to be impaired if objective evidence         
     indicates that one or more events have had a negative effect on the        
estimated future cash flows of that asset.                                 
                                                                                
     Objective evidence that a financial asset is impaired includes             
     observable data that comes to the attention of the Scheme and may          
include the following loss event:                                          
     - The disappearance of an active market for that financial asset           
     because of financial difficulties.                                         
                                                                                
Only financial assets that are not designated at fair value through        
     profit and loss are considered for impairment.                             
                                                                                
     An impairment loss in respect of a financial asset measured at             
amortised cost is calculated as the difference between the asset`s         
     carrying amount, and the present value of estimated future cash            
     flows discounted at the financial asset`s original effective               
     interest rate.                                                             

     All impairment losses are recognised in profit or loss.                    
                                                                                
     An impairment loss is reversed if the reversal can be related              
objectively to an event occurring after the impairment loss was            
     recognised. For financial assets measured at amortised cost, the           
     reversal is recognised in profit or loss.                                  
                                                                                
1.7   Offsetting                                                                
     Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount             
     reported in the statement of financial position when the entity            
     holds a current legally enforceable right to set off the recognised        
amounts or has an intention to either settle on a net basis, or            
     realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.                 
                                                                                
1.8   Fair value                                                                
Some of the Scheme`s financial instruments are measured at fair            
     value through profit or loss, namely those designated by management        
     under the fair value option.                                               
                                                                                
The fair value of a financial instrument is the amount at which the        
     instrument can be exchanged in a current transaction between willing       
     parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale.                       
                                                                                
The method of determining the fair value of financial instruments          
     can be analysed into the following categories:                             
     (a) Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets where the quoted            
     price is readily available and the price represents actual and             
regularly occurring market transactions on an arm`s length basis.          
     (b) Valuation techniques using market observable inputs.                   
     (c) The best evidence of fair value at initial recognition is the          
     transaction price (i.e. the fair value of the consideration given or       
received), unless the fair value of that instrument is evidenced by        
     comparison with other observable current market transactions in the        
     same instrument (i.e. without modification or repackaging) or based        
     on a valuation technique whose variables include only data from            
observable markets. The Scheme has entered into transactions, some         
     of which will mature within one year, where fair value is determined       
     using valuation models for which all inputs are market observable          
     prices or rates. Such a financial instrument is initially recognised       
at the transaction price, which is the best indicator of fair value,       
     this does not substantially differ from the relevant valuation             
     model.                                                                     
                                                                                
1.9   Revenue                                                                   
     Revenue comprises interest income and dividend income.                     
     Investment income is that income that is directly related to the           
     return from individual investments. It is recognised to the extent         
that it is probable that there will be an inflow of economic               
     benefits and the income can be reliably measured.                          
                                                                                
     Interest income is recognised on a time-proportionate basis using          
the effective interest method and includes interest income from debt       
     securities.                                                                
                                                                                
     Dividends from equity investments are recognised in the statement of       
comprehensive income when the shareholders` rights to receive              
     payment have been established.                                             
                                                                                
1.10  Fair value gains and losses                                               

     Realised profits or losses on the disposal of investments are the          
     difference between the fair value of the consideration received less       
     any directly attributable costs, on the sale of equity investments         
and the repayment of loans and receivables, and its carrying value         
     at the start of the accounting period.                                     
                                                                                
     Unrealised profits or losses on the revaluation of investments are         
the movements in the carrying value of investments between the start       
     and end of the accounting period.                                          
                                                                                
1.11  Management and administration expenses                                    
Management and administration expenses are recognised in the               
     statement of comprehensive income when a decrease in future economic       
     benefits relating to a decrease in an asset or an increase in a            
     liability arose that can be measured reliably.                             

1.12  Taxation                                                                  
     Income tax on the profit or loss for the period comprises current          
     and deferred tax. Income tax is recognised in profit or loss except        
to the extent that it relates to items recognised directly in other        
     comprehensive income or recognised directly in equity, in which case       
     it is recognised in other comprehensive income or equity.                  
                                                                                
Current tax is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for          
     the period, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the        
     balance sheet date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of        
     previous periods.                                                          

     Deferred taxation is provided using the balance sheet method based         
     on temporary differences. Temporary differences are differences            
     between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities for financial        
reporting purposes and their tax base. The amount of deferred              
     taxation provided is based on the expected manner of realisation or        
     settlement of the carrying amount of assets and liabilities using          
     tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet            
date. Deferred taxation is charged to profit or loss except to the         
     extent that it relates to a transaction that is recognised in other        
     comprehensive income or directly in equity, or a business                  
     combination that is an acquisition. The effect on deferred taxation        
of any changes in tax rates is recognised in profit or loss, except        
     to the extent that it relates to items previously charged or               
     credited directly to other comprehensive income or recognised              
     directly in equity.                                                        

     Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if there is a legally       
     enforceable right to offset current tax liabilities and assets, and        
     they relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority on the        
same taxable entity.                                                       
                                                                                
     A deferred tax asset is recognised to the extent that it is probable       
     that the future taxable income will be available, against which the        
unutilised tax losses and deductible temporary differences can be          
     used. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and          
     are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the           
     related tax benefits will be realised.                                     

1.13  Use of estimates and judgements                                           
     The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRS            
     requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions          
that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported        
     amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results        
     may differ from these estimates.                                           
                                                                                
Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing            
     basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the             
     period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods        
     affected.                                                                  

1.14  Provisions                                                                
     Provisions are recognised when the scheme has a present legal or           
     constructive obligation as a result of past events, for which it is        
probable that an outflow of economic benefits will occur, and where        
     a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.           
     Where the effect of discounting is material, provisions are                
     determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-         
tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value        
     of money and, where appropriate, the risks specific to the                 
     liability.                                                                 
                                                                                
Future operating costs or losses are not provided for.                     
                                                                                
1.15  New standards and interpretations adopted in the current year             
     The following standards, interpretations and amendments to standards       
and interpretations are effective for annual periods on or after 1         
     January 2009 and early adopted by management in the current year:          
                                                                                
     IAS 1 - Presentation of Financial Statements                               
The amendment introduces the term `total comprehensive income`,            
     which represents changes in equity during a period other than those        
     changes resulting from transactions with owners in their capacity as       
     owners. Total comprehensive income may be presented in either a            
single statement of comprehensive income (effectively combining both       
     the profit or loss and all non-owner changes in equity in a single         
     statement), or in an profit or loss and a separate statement of            
     other comprehensive income. The amendment also requires two sets of        
comparative numbers to be provided for the financial position in any       
     year where there has been a restatement or reclassification of             
     balances.                                                                  
                                                                                
IAS 32 - Financial Instruments: Presentation and IAS 1 Presentation        
     of Financial Statements - Puttable Financial Instruments and               
     Obligations Arising on Liquidation                                         
                                                                                
The amendment requires puttable instruments, and instruments that          
     impose on the entity an obligation to deliver to another party a pro       
     rata share of the net assets of the entity only on liquidation, to         
     be classified as equity if certain conditions are met. The amendment       
might have an impact on the financial statements on such                   
     instruments.
