CORESOLUTIONS FUND MANAGERS (RF) (PTY) LTD) (THE "MANAGER")
ANNUAL INVESTOR REPORT
For the Year Ended 31 December 2024

CHAIRMAN'S REPORT

It is my pleasure to present the annual report of the Manager, CoreSolutions Collective Investment Scheme and the
CoreSolutions Exchange Traded Fund Scheme (the "Schemes"), and their portfolios for the year ended 31 December 2024.

Market Review
In 2024, global financial markets delivered exceptional performance, reflected by the MSCI All Country World Index recording
a total return of 19.2%. This strong showing was largely driven by developed markets—particularly the United States—where
the S&P 500 Index surged by 25% (29% in ZAR), marking the second consecutive year of returns exceeding 25%. A major
contributor to this rally was the "Magnificent Seven" mega-cap technology firms, which collectively soared by 67.3%. Since
the launch of ChatGPT in late 2022, enthusiasm around artificial intelligence has dominated market sentiment. Additionally, a
resilient U.S. economy, easing inflation, and optimism surrounding Trump-era tax policies bolstered investor confidence in the
outlook for corporate earnings and shareholder returns.

Emerging markets also posted positive, albeit more modest, gains of 8.1%, supported by a year-end rebound in Chinese equities
and strong performances from markets such as India and Taiwan. Commodities, on the other hand, delivered more muted returns
of 5.4%, held back by soft demand from China. For South African investors, 2024 was a pivotal year. The national election
results and the relatively smooth transition to a Government of National Unity (GNU) helped reduce political risk and increased
optimism around potential structural reforms. Furthermore, a notable reduction in loadshedding provided a foundation for
improved consumer and business confidence. The South African bond market delivered outstanding results, generating equity-
like returns of 17%, while the local stock market outperformed many emerging market peers with a return of 13%.

Overall, the strong performance across both local and global markets contributed to solid returns across our unit trust and ETF
range for the second consecutive year. Our broad product offering and risk-managed multi-asset funds continued to attract
significant inflows and remain well positioned to navigate what may be a volatile period ahead.

Overview of the funds

Comment

The board and management are pleased with the performance of the existing funds over the year. The approval of the ETF
scheme and the launch of the first ETF for the manager paves the way to further extending the range of funds in future years.

There were no circumstances during the year which affected the financial affairs of the portfolios and its manager and all the
Portfolios complied their respective investment policies and objectives as contained in the supplemental deeds. There were
no qualifications made by in the auditor's report on the financial statements. Copies of the audited annual financial statements
of CoreSolutions Fund Managers (RF) (Pty) Ltd, the CoreSolutions Collective Investment Scheme and the CoreSolutions
Exchange Traded Fund Scheme, are available, free of charge, on request by email to info@10x.co.za.

clients, thank you for your sustained loyalty and invaluable support.


Yours sincerely,

Marc Weber
Chairman
