4 What happened in 2016? 2015 was a tough year for asset allocators. But 2016 was a much better scenario, with occasional episodic volatility (China worries, global growth concerns, Brexit) Variability in asset performance reminds us that what we buy and when we buy is the key investment decision Total returns, USD (%) US 10Y Bonds Global Aggregate Global IG Global HY EM Debt DM Equities US Equities DM (ex US) Equities China Equities (Hshares) Asia ex Japan Equities EM Equities Source: Bloomberg, HSBC Global Asset Management, as of 30 th December Investment involves risks.

5 Trumponomics and US equities Within our Fragile Equilibrium framework, market perceptions of risk has shifted towards the scenario of a strong demand recovery This is driven by expectations that Trump will try and implement more growth-friendly policies: (i) USD500bn infrastructure spending, (ii) lower corporate and personal tax rates, (iii) deregulation, anti-trust laws etc. These policies also reinforce our theme of the end of fiscal austerity. The prospect of pro-cyclical fiscal policy has increased the odds of reflation and this environment is less bond-friendly Corporate tax reform gives some upside risk to earnings. But the US profits outlook remains under pressure Margins are being squeezed as wage costs intensify Low nominal growth continues to weigh on the top-line US 30-year total return index and yield Employment cost US 30Y Total Return Index, LHS US 30Y Yield, RHS % yoy, % Average Hourly Earnings, Total Employment Cost Index, Total Atlanta Fed Wage Growth Tracker Source: HSBC Global Asset Management, Global Investment Strategy, November Investment involves risks.

6 Fiscal and monetary policy co-ordination The end of austerity Concerns about the sustainability of high gross debt levels and therefore the need for austerity have dominated thinking in most advanced economies since the crisis But (i) a new populist political agenda, (ii) the lacklustre recovery and (iii) the perceived limits of monetary policy are now forcing a reconsideration An arsenal of monetary tools and measures (negative rates, QE, direct financing) still means that global liquidity conditions remain highly supportive for reflation But central banks focus is now shifting away from the size of balance sheet toward yield curve control (BoJ bond yield caps, Fed dot plot ) Fiscal boost*, % of potential GDP *Fiscal boost calculated as the inverse change in the cyclically adjusted primary balance estimated using IMF forecasts.

7 Emerging market equities outperformed Emerging market equities outperformed developed market equities in 2016 YTD Interest rates remain high in many markets. There is potential for a secular equity market re-rating This was logical given the relative valuations and prospects of emerging markets versus the developed markets although the absolute difference was relatively small MSCI Emerging Markets Index vs. MSCI World Index in Jan-16 Feb-16 Mar-16 Apr-16 May-16 Jun-16 Jul-16 Aug-16 Sep-16 Oct-16 Nov-16 Emerging Market Equities Developed Market Equities Source: Bloomberg, HSBC Global Asset Management, as of November 2016 Emerging market equities MSCI Emerging Markets Index, Developed Market Equities MSCI World Index 7

9 The case for emerging market equities Emerging markets now contribute about a third of global GDP and half of global GDP growth In the short to medium term, we expect economic fundamentals to be supportive for EM equities Continued, rapid, industrialisation will boost growth while potential moves up the value chain could improve corporate earnings in some economies Contribution to global GDP growth 6% 4% 2% 0% -2% Emerging markets Developed markets Source: HSBC Global Asset Management, DataStream as at 30 September For illustrative purposes only.. 9
10 Looking ahead 2017 and beyond Going into 2017, global economy remains in a state of fragile equilibrium with a low growth/inflation mix Combination of reflationary policies, corporate fundamentals and compelling valuations form a supportive backdrop for equities in the year ahead Equity premiums look attractive in a low return world, especially when compared with government bonds Emerging market equities, particularly in Asia, continue to stand out in terms of growth prospects, positive earnings revisions and valuations 2017 will see an overhang from many of the risks that materialised in the previous year and new ones including de-globalisation and potential policy missteps On a longer time perspective, geopolitical events play much less important role than fundamentals and economic and market development 10

33 Impact of Demonetization - Good Intent but Short Term Pain Over, longer term demonetization coupled with GST will nudge the shadow economy to formalize itself thus boosting efficiencies and growth. However, four negative impacts of demonetization: Near term halt as physical cash had disappeared. This is a logistical problem; the Govt./RBI will eventually replace old notes Loss of income : Services account for 61% of India s GDP. For this part, the current disruption is not a postponement of income, but is lost revenue (no haircut today doesn t imply two haircuts tomorrow) Large negative wealth effect: This could impact 60% of Indian household assets (physical savings). Propensity to consume both in the black and the formal economy will fall Body blow to the shadow economy: The black economy is estimated to be 25-30% of GDP Autos: Rural demand may get disrupted in the near term Consumers: ST pressure but LT consolidation gains to accrue Maruti s rural volumes Source: Bank of America Merrill Lynch, December Unbranded share of total

41 Indian bond market Broad and deep structure Indian Debt Market is broadly classified in three segments: Government Securities comprising the Central and State Government securities and treasury bills Public Sector Undertaking (PSU) bonds, generally treated as surrogates of sovereign paper, often due to the comfort of Government ownership of the PSUs Corporate securities comprising debentures/corporate bonds and commercial papers Indian Debt Market is predominantly wholesale market with dominant institutional investor participation which includes Banks Insurers Retirement funds Mutual funds Financial Institutions India s central banking authority The Reserve Bank of India (RBI), regulates transactions in sovereign securities Exchange-listed debt securities come under the concurrent purview of the Stock Exchange where they are listed All transactions of FPI s in the debt market are governed by Securities Exchange Board of India (SEBI) 41
42 Indian bond market Access for FPI s FPI s can access Indian market by securing an FPI license from Designated Depository Participant (DDP) FPIs can invest in Debentures of Indian Companies Units of domestic mutual funds Exchange traded derivatives Dated Government Securities State Development Loans Coupons and capital gains are taxed Investment limit for FPI s are as follows: Debt limit in respective category is freely available till the aggregate FPI investments reaches 90% of the limit, after which the auction mechanism will be triggered for the balance limit FPIs can invest in dated government securities and corporate bonds having residual maturity of three years or above Depositories will monitor the different thresholds Switching (buying/selling) within the quota limit is allowed for the same day The USD10bn limit in sovereign segment is available for investments only to specified FPIs Total FPI government securities limit is at 5% of total outstanding bonds, denominated in INR terms. The quota is reviewed every 6 months and released every quarter 42
43 Indian bond market Recent changes to FPI Investments Policy In the policy meeting on 29 September 2015, RBI announced significant changes to the FPI investments policy: Total FPI government securities limit has been adjusted to 5% of total outstanding bonds, implying an additional INR1.2 trillion in quota The limit was previously set in absolute dollar terms; the quota has also now been redenominated into INR The quota will be reviewed every 6 months and released every quarter, adding much more transparency to the system RBI has opened up State Development Loans (SDL) to foreign investors SDLs are issued by states as opposed to the central government SDLs were previously inaccessible for foreign investors 2% of outstanding SDL will be opened up to foreign investors RBI introduced Masala bonds which are bonds issued by Indian companies offshore, denominated in INR and settled in USD Not subject to FPI license Subject to 5% withholding tax 43
44 Indian bond market Recent market reforms In August 2016, RBI announced a series of measures to develop the onshore fixed income and currency markets. Some of these include: Allowing banks to raise capital through Masala bonds in the overseas market Allowing both residents and non residents to maintain large open positions (up to limit of USD 5 million) Proposed to permit listed companies to lend money to banks through repo market mechanism Granting direct access to foreign portfolio investors (FPIs) to bond trading for both government and corporate bonds To further develop the corporate bond market, the following measures have been put in place: Permitting brokers to repo in corporate bonds Allowing FPIs to trade directly in corporate bonds Accepting corporate bonds under the liquidity adjustment facility of the RBI Introduction of the Electronic Dealing Platform for repo in corporate bonds These measures are intended to: enhance market participation facilitate greater market liquidity and improve communication & transparency 44

49 Interest rate view Further easing dependent on inflation trajectory MPC believes the upside risks to the 5% inflation target for Jan-Mar 2017 have diminished Acknowledges the possibility of risks to inflation from the implementation of the 7 th Pay Commission and GST bill However, declining food inflation momentum should guide headline CPI lower Stance of policy continues to be accommodative Fiscal prudence, lower inflation, lower neutral real rate with focus on growth should keep rates on an easing bias We see scope for the MPC to cut rates further by at least 25bps before Mar 2017 Bond supply The government has revised the supply in the remainder part of H revised downwards to 66,000 crore from 84,000 crore previously due to larger tax revenues provides a favourable technical backdrop for bonds Statutory demand from insurers, pensioners and retirement funds to drive demand for yield Slow credit growth leads to demand from banking system Expect 10Y government bonds to trade between % with softening bias to yields given improved liquidity Note: Any forecasts, projections or targets contained in this presentation is for information purpose only and is not guaranteed in any way.

51 Dawn of a brave new world
52 Dawn of a brave new world Interest rates in India down sharply, improving outlook on the banking sector and a revival in external demand can pave the way for a sustained rally in the Indian markets A world which will return to a growth orientation, away from the stagnation seen in the past few years We feel, Indian equity markets are reasonably valued and offer an attractive alternative to other emerging markets, much more challenged by the new world order at this time, especially China. Increasing propensity for sustained discretionary spending, reduction in the asset quality problem with banks and a stable increase in discretionary spend in the US points to some beneficiaries in the local stock markets A revival in investment demand fueled by government spending, may also throw up interesting opportunities in Industrials and basic manufacturing Our asset allocation prefers an overweight stance in equities and intermediate debt duration 52
53 Important information Specific risks to the Indian equity market include: government inaction, high oil prices, pressure on current account, INR weakness and sticky inflation investors should be reminded that investment in some of the developing Asian countries may involve special considerations and risks. Below could affect adversely the economies of such countries or the value of the investment: Political changes Government regulation Social instability Diplomatic development Global economic development, etc Emerging markets can be significantly more volatile than developed markets, so that the value of investments may be subject to larger fluctuations Currency movement and market condition may affect the value of investments Risk Considerations. There is no assurance that a portfolio will achieve its investment objective. In addition, there is no guarantee that any investment strategy will work under all market conditions, and each investors should evaluate their ability to invest for the long-term, especially during periods of downturn in the market. Portfolios are subject to market risk, which is the possibility that the market values of securities owned by the portfolio will decline. Accordingly, you can lose money investing in any of these strategies. Please be aware that these strategies may be subject to certain additional risks, which should be considered carefully along with the strategy s investment objectives and fees before investing. Equity. In general equity securities values also fluctuate in response to activities specific to a company. Foreign and emerging markets. Investments in foreign markets entail special risks such as currency, political, economic, and market risks. The risks of investing in emerging-market countries are greater than the risks generally associated with foreign investments. Derivative instruments. Derivatives can be illiquid, may disproportionately increase losses and may have a potentially large negative impact on performance. Non-diversification. Focusing investments in a small number of issuers, industries, foreign currencies or particular countries or regions increases the risks associated with a single economic, political or regulatory occurrence. Sector concentration. When a strategy will invest more than 25% of its total assets in securities issued by companies in the financial services group of industries. Accordingly, a strategy will be more susceptible to developments that affect such industries, such as economic cycles, interest rate changes, business developments and regulatory changes, than other strategies that do not concentrate their investments. Commodity-related investments. Exposure to commodities markets, including investments in companies in commodity-related industries, may subject a strategy to greater volatility than investments in traditional securities. The value of commodity-related investments may be affected by overall market movements and factors specific to a particular industry or commodity. Gross performance information. Performance data is calculated gross of fees and assumes the reinvestment of dividends, income and any capital gains and is net of transaction costs. The results are shown before the deduction of investment advisory fees and other expenses, which would reduce a return. Information about investment advisory fees is available in our Form ADV Part 2A, which is available upon request. The following hypothetical illustrates how investment advisory fees, compounded over time, could impact performance. Assuming a portfolio s annual rate of return is 15% for 5 years and the annual investment advisory fee is 50 basis points, the gross cumulative five-year return would be 101.1% and the five-year return net of fees would be 96.8%. 53
