The Fund may invest in bonds of any sort and other similar debt securities and in Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) or Undertakings for Collective Investments in Transferable Securities (UCITS) and/or other Undertakings for Collective Investments (UCIs). The Fund may invest in instruments denominated in currencies other than the euro. The Fund may hold cash, less than 50% of the Fund Net Asset Value (NAV). The Fund may use financial techniques and instruments in order to promote an efficient portfolio management, in accordance with the prospectus. In particular, the Fund will use listed derivatives and OTC derivatives in order to create long and short exposure with the aim of exploiting potential opportunities. Investments in the Fund involves risks due to possible variations in net asset value which, in turn, depend on the values of the securities in which the Fund invests. The recommended minimum investment period horizon is 3/5 years. The Fund addresses to investors willing to accept a medium/high level of risk. Any income received by the Fund is reinvested.

Annual chart

The month of October was characterised by a rebound in rates and a continuation of the good performance of risk assets, which only in the run-up to the US elections began to show some signs of profit-taking linked to the particularly significant uncertainty over the outcome of the vote.

Manager's comment of the month

Kicking off the sell-off on rates, which retraced about half of the movement achieved in the summer months, was labour market data for September, which was somewhat better than expectations across every metric. The baseline scenario remains the soft landing, but perhaps the dose of monetary policy interventions to be administered is not what the market had envisaged immediately after the Fed's 50 bps cut in mid-September.

The movement was broader on the dollar curve, amplified by the volatility brought by Trump's rise in the polls in the run-up to the presidential election. As growth tensions eased, spreads tightened again, particularly on high-beta bonds, with an average compression of 30 bps on High Yield and CoCos. Performance was moderately negative on Investment Grade credit, which was most affected by the movement in rates, and positive on high beta, especially in the AT1 segment, which advanced by about 1 point in the month for a cumulative gain of more than 11 points since the start of the year.

In the currency sphere, the dollar gained 2.63% due to a combination of better macroeconomic data and an increased likelihood of continued high growth due to fiscal policy. All other G10 currencies, with the exception of the Swiss franc (+0.17%), depreciated against the euro. The three worst currencies in the last month were the NZD (-3.99%), the yen (-3.47%) and the AUD (-2.87%).

We again reduced rate exposure, after the labour market data at the start of the month, bringing the fund back towards a 3-year duration. Towards the end of the month, we then added 5 points in EM hard currency, which had not had any space in the portfolio during the recent period.
