Interim Results

Genesis Emerging Markets Fund Ld 28 March 2002 GENESIS EMERGING MARKETS FUND LIMITED INTERIM ANNOUNCEMENT The Board of Directors of Genesis Emerging Markets Fund Limited announce unaudited results for the six months to 31st December, 2001: 2001 2000 Total net assets US$211,315,695 US$198,946,773 Capital Return (Deficit) 1,808,407 (38,882,546) Revenue Return 262,916 178,537 Net asset value per Participating Share 15.65 14.73 Total Return(Deficit) per Participating Share 0.153 (2.364) Comment - Net Asset Value per Participating Share at 31st December 2001 was US$15.65, up 1.0% compared to US$15.50 at 30th June 2001, and 6.2% above the figure of US$14.73 recorded at 31st December 2000. The second half of 2001 was dominated by the terrorist attacks of 11th September, and the subsequent political and military response. World equity markets were already weak on suggestions of a drawn-out slowdown, so the sell- off of late September had an exaggerated impact. Emerging Markets at this stage did significantly worse than the MSCI World Index, but for the fourth quarter, as the recovery took root, it was a different story. Spurred on by any hint of improvement (or slowing deterioration) in the technology area, equity markets staged a very sharp rally. Emerging Market companies are in the early stages of a cyclical recovery. Such companies represent a highly competitive proposition in terms of valuation, growth, and enormously improved corporate quality; notwithstanding, the quiet outperformance of the Emerging Markets over the major markets now for the past three years.
