Symphony's approach is to pursue private equity-type deals that tap into its management team's extensive experience with such transactions. In each case Symphony will endeavor to achieve a position of effective control in partnership with the management of the acquired business.

Symphony's geographic scope encompasses the entire Asia Pacific region with special focus on the following countries: India, China, Australia, Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, Taiwan, Thailand and the emerging markets of Vietnam and Sri Lanka.

In keeping with Symphony's philosophy, the company will seek to make investments where it is the lead or sole investor and is well placed to influence all aspects of business and financial strategy. The criteria for evaluating investment opportunities include the following:

• Quality of management team and their track-record
• Competitive advantage in terms of product differentiation or brand recognition
• Size and scope of the addressable market
• Fit with Symphony's focus on consumer-oriented businesses
• Degree of influence and control attainable whether in a public or private enterprise
