Review / Outlook
The fund performed very well at the beginning of the month. Then, at the end of the month, long-term government bonds were affected by data suggesting resilient inflation. Both strategies contributed positively with credit 0.45% and government bonds 0.22%. Credit was underpinned by the Coco but penalized by the defensive corporate hybrid positions. Despite the volatility, government bonds posted a positive performance thanks to our positioning in the US 10-year treasury whose yield declined by 18 bps to 4.50%.
During the month, we raised the allocation to credit from 52% to 55%. We added attractive new bond issues. We invested in Intesa EUR 7% Perpetual Coco, next call in 2032 with a yield-to-call of 7% and a BB- credit rating as well as Alstom EUR 5.868% Perpetual hybrid, next call in 2029 with a yield-to-call of 5.6% and a BB credit rating. We also took profit on low coupons bonds to switch into bonds with better current carry. Concerning government bonds, we slightly decreased the allocation to long-term government bonds from 28% to 26%.
The fund offers a yield of 4.4% in EUR. We maintained the duration at 3.7 years and lowered the average credit rating from A+ to A.
Scenario 1, weight of 30%: Investments in IT accelerate, central banks end rate increases, inflation falls. The market continues to rally. Economic indicators are mixed. The leading indicator is recovering in Germany, consolidating in the US while China’s economy remains very weak. Any positive economic news, such as booming artificial intelligence (AI) related investments or a recovery in manufacturing PMIs, would be positive for equity and credit markets. This is neutral to negative for government bonds and negative for the USD.
Scenario 2, weight of 50%: The US economy drifts into a mild recession. Several mitigating factors are likely to dampen the equity market correction and result in a mild loss of 5% to 15%: liquidity is still abundant, PMIs have reached a bottom and the boom in AI-related investments continues. This scenario is negative for credit and slightly positive for government bonds.
Scenario 3, weight of 20%: Credit conditions in the US deteriorate, developed economies fall into a global recession. Under this scenario, inflation persists, and the Fed’s restrictive monetary policy starts to impact the economy. Equity and credit markets correct. This is positive for government bonds, the USD and potentially gold.

Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future results and can be misleading. As the sub-fund is denominated in a currency that may differ than an investor’s base currency, changes in the rate of exchange may have an adverse effect on prices and incomes. Performance is shown net of fees and expenses for the relevant share class over the reference period. Show moreShow less
