31. Purchase Diamond Mining Equities - Disadvantages Most of the major diamond mines are small parts of the global mining conglomerates so no significant gearing to diamond price. Buying shares of small independent producers as a point of entry exposes investors to significant political, topographical and operational risk. Equities are an imperfect substitute for exposure to the underlying commodity. Diversification benefits are reduced as the equities are correlated with broader share markets.

32. Direct Purchase of Diamonds - Disadvantages Investor is not an expert, very technical industry so investor might purchase diamonds with inferior investment grade characteristics Investor has to directly arrange for insurance and storage, which can be quite expensive Limited portfolio effect as most investor will not be able to purchase large quantities of stones with diverse characteristics Relatively illiquid for non-industry participants -hard for individual investor to sell at a good price

33. Emergence of Professional Investment Diamond Market Over the last 2 years there has been a number of diamond funds launched. Predominantly European based ETF funds. Respective investment managers have erred in product development. Key to successful diamond investment product is PRICE TRANSPARENCY & LIQUIDITY

34. Pricing and Valuation of Polished Diamonds There are thousands of categories of gem-quality polished diamonds. The Investment Managers will invest in investment grade diamonds which are grouped into homogeneous categories based on gemological features of the diamond. Most investment grade diamonds have traditionally been valued in the dealer market by an extrapolation off a generally accepted Price List – i.e. the Rapaport Price List. The emergence of deep and liquid B2B trading platforms has introduced real-time pricing and valuation data for polished diamonds. Pricing transparency for polished diamonds is far more advanced than other alternative asset classes which are actively traded for investment purposes (e.g. Art, Wine, Rare Coins, Uranium)
