A new investment concept: “high dividend stocks” chosen among 100 blue-chip
stocks of the Index
• Companies with high dividend distribution policy have experienced an interesting increase of their stock
price over the last few years
• Thanks to high dividends, those stocks tend to be better supported even in a bearish market
environment
• Generating strong cash flows is a factor for quality companies
 A suitable investment for investors looking for capital gains over medium to long term

Past performance is not a guide to future performance and the value of investments in the fund may go down as well as up. Investors may
not get back the amount they originally invested. Hypothetical results have certain inherent limitations (e.g. they are designed with the
benefit of hindsight). Hypothetical returns are not indicative of actual results that would have been achieved over the same period for the
investment strategy or that will be achieved in the future.
The method of the back-test

The back-test was conducted:
• From September 1996 to the fund launch date to compare with DJ Islamic Market Titans 100
Index.

The comparison between the optimised basket and the DJIM Titans 100 index over the
same period is based on the following parameters:
• The basket performance with Net Dividend Reinvested
• For the DJIM Titans 100 Index, we incorporated a hypothetical dividend yield of 2%
reinvested



16
The stock basket is based on the Index composition as of 31 January 2006, applied for
the whole period of back-tests, i.e. the basket was rebalanced annually to select 30
biggest dividend payers for each corresponding year.
The back-test did not take into account minor exceptional rebalancing that might have
taken place, nor the withholding tax on the dividends of the holding stocks imposed by
Luxembourg regulation.
The results are net of the 2.0% fee per annual (the maximum Total Expense Ratio).

nor shall it form the basis of, or be relied upon in connection with, any contract or commitment whatsoever, nor be taken as investment
advice.
The Fund has been authorised as an undertaking for collective investment in transferable securities (UCITS) in Luxembourg. Its
marketing is authorised, at present, in Luxembourg and its units may be offered and sold in all of that country. Steps have been or will
be taken to allow the public offering of the units in Bahrain, Kuwait, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Libyan, Singapore, Malaysia, Switzerland,
Netherlands, France, Germany, Cyprus, Turkey, Spain and Portugal. No action has been taken which would permit the public offering
of the shares in any other jurisdiction where such action would be required, in particular, in the United States, to US persons and in the
United Kingdom. Prior to any subscription in a country in which BNP Paribas Islamic Fund is registered, investors should verify which
compartments and which classes of shares are authorised for public sale there, as well as any legal constraints or restrictions there
may be in connection with their subscription, purchase, possession or sale of the units of the Fund.
Investors considering subscribing for units should read carefully the most recent prospectus. Applications may only be made on the
terms and conditions contained in the prospectus. The prospectus is available from BNP PARIBAS, local correspondents if any, or
from the entities marketing the Fund. Investors should consult their own legal and tax advisors prior to investing in the Fund.
Given the economic and market risks, there can be no assurance that the Fund will achieve its investment objectives. The value of the

assets, depending upon the compartment) and any taxes on income received on investments, which may be withheld by the
depositary according to their tax situation in their country of origin.
Subscribers must make and submit their own declarations in their country of tax residence. The attention of unitholders fiscally
domiciled in France is drawn to their obligation to make a declaration of income in France which, resulting from switching between

on transferable securities.
