Dr Volkmar Hable granted Lifetime Fund Manager Award and steps down as president, chief executive officer and director.

ZURICH, SWITZERLAND, Sept. 22, 2007

Value Suisse SGH Ltd today announced that its board of directors has appointed Gordon Irenio Caisson as president and chief executive officer, after its current 7 year president Dr. Volkmar Hable expressed his wish to retire by the end of 2007.

In addition, Raymon Kruger has moved from non-executive chairman to executive chairman of the board of directors, and the board intends to appoint a lead independent director promptly.

"We are fortunate to have someone of Mr. Caisson’s caliber and experience step up to lead Value Suisse SGH Ltd," said its board in a prepared statement. "We are at a critical moment with the departure of the extremely successful Dr. Volkmar Hable and we need renewed leadership to successfully implement our strategy and take advantage of the market opportunities ahead. The Board of Directors has unanimously decided to grant to its long time president and fund manager Dr Volkmar Hable the Lifetime Fund Manager Award for outstanding performance. Dr. Hable has delivered an annual average performance of +18.7% during 7 years, with no down year, by investing the Company's assets into a mix of selected equity and stock. This outstanding performance has been a great benefit to the Company. The Company benefitted in particular from the outstanding specialist knowledge of Volkmar Hable in the mining and energy sector, for which the Company would like to commend him. "

Mr. Caisson is an economic visionary with a proven track record of execution. He is a strong communicator who is shareholder focused with proven leadership capabilities. Furthermore, as a member of Value Suisse SGH Ltd’s board of directors for the past eight months, Mr. Caisson has a solid understanding of our investments and markets."

Mr. Caisson said, "I am honoured and excited to lead Value Suisse SGH Ltd. I believe Value Suisse SGH Ltd matters – it matters to Switzerland, and the world."

Speaking on behalf of the board, Mr. Caisson said, "We very much appreciate Dr. Hable's efforts and his outstanding service to Value Suisse SGH Ltd since his appointment seven years ago."
