100% Capital Guarantee from Barclay's Bank

How long could you live without water? About 72 hours and everyone else in the world is in the same boat. Water, historically, has been so cheap that few of us thought about the price. That is changing and changing fast.

Three Reasons why You Stand to Gain from Investment in Water?

You Will be Investing in the 'Ultimate' commodity. No-one can do without it.

Demand for water is growing because:

          a) There is, globally, a limited supply of unpolluted clear water.
          b) World population is growing fast.
          c) Increasing industrialisation requires vast quantities of water
          d) Growing affluence in some rapidly developing countries. Consider China
               with around 20% of the world's population and only 7% of its water.

        Demand for all manner of water related services

          e) Large areas of some rapidly developing countries have almost non-existent
               infrastructure
          f)   Even in well developed countries, there are immense problems with
               outdated or non existent hydro-infrastructure
          g) Rising standards for the quality of water supplies is driving investment into
               treatment and purification.

h) Increased privatisation within water sector

The PDL / Barclay Protected Water Fund was introduced in October 2007. Results for the first 3 months trading have just been announced.

The fund gained a little over 6.00% in those 3 months. If that trend continues it equates to over 12% per year.

In these turbulent markets that is an excellent performance and when combined with Barclay's 100% Capital guarantee there is an excellent case for making the fund part of any investment portfolio.

Some Interesting Facts about Water

- 97.5% of the earth's water is saltwater.

- Approximately half of the people in the world get their water from the Himalayas

- The water we drink has been circling around in the water cycle for millions of years – that means the

same water exists now as when the dinosaurs were on the Earth!

- The amount of fresh water supply provided by the hydrological cycle does not increase. Water

everywhere on the planet is an integral part of the hydrologic cycle.

- Many major rivers are running dry – Colorado, Ganges, Indus, Rio Grande and Yellow – are so over-

tapped that they now run dry for part of the year.

- Freshwater wetland has shrunk by about half worldwide.

- In 1972, the Yellow River in China failed to reach the sea for the first time in history. That year it failed on

15 days; every year since, it has run dry for a longer period of time, until in 1997, it failed to reach the

sea for 226 days.

- The UK has less available water per person than most other European countries.

- London is drier than Istanbul, and the South East of England has less water available per person than the

Sudan and Syria.

- Water is scarce in parts of Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland as well as in England - large scale

drought is already occurring in the UK, with the lowest rainfall, groundwater and reservoir levels for

decades.

- A country is said to experience "water stress" when annual water supplies drop below 1,700 cubic

meters per person. At levels between 1,700 and 1,000 cubic meters per person, periodic or limited water

shortages can be expected. When annual water supplies drop below 1,000 cubic meters per person, the

country faces water scarcity.

- The average amount of water needed to produce one kilogramme of potatoes is 1000 litres, wheat is 1450

- Agriculture accounts for over 70% of the world's water consumption. (UN Environment Programme

(UNEP))

- It takes at least 2,000 litres to produce enough food for one person for one day.
