Investment Markets Overview Global overview Global equities moved higher, as central bank policy remained supportive and economic data was generally encouraging Fixed income markets performed well: core government bond yields declined and credit spreads tightened Economic indicators in the US and UK remained strong, raising expectations of a turn in the interest rate cycle Equity markets made a disappointing start to 2014, largely driven by worries over emerging markets, an apparent slowdown in China and geopolitical unrest in the Ukraine. Most markets subsequently recovered, despite periodic concerns about earlier-than-expected US interest rate hikes and mounting deflationary pressures in the Euro-zone. Favourable political developments in emerging economies and buoyant corporate activity from around the world (including headline-grabbing takeover and IPO announcements) were also well received by traders. The period wasn t without drama, however, as rising tensions in the Middle East caused the price of oil to spike and prompted investors to lock in profits. By the end of the review period, sentiment was broadly positive, given encouraging US results, sound economic data and supportive central bank intervention. The commitment of central banks to maintain low interest rates and rising geopolitical risks provided support for government bond markets. Contrary to market expectations and in spite of favourable domestic growth indicators, UK gilt and US Treasury yields continued to decline. Corporate bonds also performed well. Returns were driven by declines in government bond yields and credit spread tightening. European corporate bonds were particularly strong, helped by the introduction of further monetary stimulus from the European Central Bank ( ECB ). UK At the start of 2014, news that UK 2013 Gross Domestic Product ( GDP ) grew at the fastest rate since the financial crisis was taken positively by the market. However, volatility continued due to concerns over capital outflows from emerging markets and ongoing tension between Russia and the Ukraine. Strong purchasing managers index data demonstrated ongoing recovery as the period drew to a close but, at market level, interest rate policy speculation prompted the period to end on a slightly weaker note. The conflict in Iraq also gave investors a new variable to ponder, despite further strong UK industrial output data. US US equities delivered their sixth successive quarter of positive performance, with the S&P 500 index hitting an all-time high during the period. Investors were encouraged by US Federal Reserve Chair Janet Yellen s confirmation that interest rates would remain low for some time to come. Data releases showed an improvement in economic growth in recent months with industrial production, employment and manufacturing numbers beating analyst estimates. More encouraging macroeconomic data and a reasonable corporate earnings season have supported positive sentiment, helping equities to make progress. The favourable backdrop was maintained as the review period drew to a close. Europe In line with other global equity markets, Europe suffered a disappointing start to 2014 before rebounding strongly in February. Continued weak inflation data resulted in concerns over the threat of deflation and prompted speculation that the ECB would have to act to stimulate activity and prices. Equities rallied hard on this view, which eventually resulted in the ECB announcing in June a further round of policies aimed at tackling the general economic malaise in the region. Euro-zone GDP growth for the first quarter proved disappointing with the Italian economy contracting and France showing no growth. Mario Draghi, the ECB President, has indicated a willingness to use further stimulus measures if need be. Japan Japanese equities experienced sharp falls in early 2014, largely driven by global macro concerns and poor fourth-quarter Japanese GDP figures. Japan s ongoing economic experiment continued apace, with the government announcing a hike in the consumption tax rate in April and plans to slash corporation tax next year. On the whole, the economic picture remained a mixed one as the review period drew to a close. Despite this, Japanese equities enjoyed a strong May and June. Asia Pacific In the Pacific Basin, equities had a disappointing start to 2014 as emerging market currency weakness once again prompted investors to reduce their exposure to the region. Encouragingly, markets bounced back strongly over the second quarter. A resounding election victory by marketfriendly Narendra Modi in India boosted hopes about the country s growth and reform prospects. A series of targeted stimulus measures in China was also well received, including increased infrastructure investment. The improving US economic backdrop was a further factor supporting regional markets. Government bonds Government bonds delivered positive returns over the six months. The ECB finally announced a series of policy measures aimed at stimulating bank lending and growth, providing a boost to European sovereign bonds. By contrast, further signs of economic improvement in the UK prompted the Bank of England to warn of an earlier-than-expected rise in interest rates. More surprising was the move in US Treasury yields, which confounded expectations and moved lower, even though the growing strength of the US economy suggests that, as in the UK, interest rates are set to rise. Corporate bonds With tapering by the Federal Reserve finally commencing in January, credit markets endured some volatility as a result of fears over the impact this would have on some of the emerging economies. However, the strong technical backdrop of relatively subdued new issuance and robust cash inflows to the asset class allowed credit to maintain its positive momentum. This settled backdrop was further enhanced by the announcement from the ECB of a further easing of monetary policy aimed at tackling subdued economic growth and falling prices in the Euro-zone. 4
