Investment Manager s Report Investment Review The last 12 months have been a volatile period for equities and other asset classes, with several major spikes in volatility along the way. This was a tough backdrop for the portfolio, which posted a return of -3.2% 1 over the period under review. That should be seen in the context of a stronger second half to the year however, with the fund up 3.3% 1, buoyed by stronger equity markets in the fourth quarter of 2015 and from mid-february this year. Looking back to 2015, rather than changing our outlook in response to short-term events, we used the volatility surrounding August s Black Monday to add to some of our favoured equity funds in the UK, Europe and emerging markets (CF Lindsell Train UK Equity, Jupiter European and Aberdeen Emerging Markets). We also added passive exposure to Asia and Europe. After the upheaval of summer, the fourth quarter was positive for equities overall: the MSCI World was up 8.4% 2 in sterling terms over the three months, taking it into positive territory for the year, up 4.9% 2. Overall however, 2015 was a fairly wild ride for equities and the record highs in many markets in spring seemed a distant memory by the end of the year. The net result was an asset class that generated only modest returns in 2015 and against that backdrop, Societe Generale branded the year the hardest in which to make money in close to eight decades. So far in 2016, policy action has dominated and created a market torn between demand for safe haven and risk assets, seemingly based on faith in central governments. The ECB s March announcement proved well beyond expectations and softer comment from Fed chair Janet Yellen has made the four rate hikes predicted at the end of 2015 look increasingly unlikely. These events helped drive a strong end to the review period for equities although ongoing instability in January and February meant these gains were not enough to avoid a flat first quarter overall. With ten-year gilts yielding less than 1.5% 3 and the Bank of England having a 2% 3 inflation target, the potential negative real return from many bonds is not attractive long term and we remain underweight relative to our target allocation. In the search for alternative sources of return, we have invested in go-anywhere strategic bond funds to complement our traditional fixed income allocation and also increased weightings in hedge and absolute return funds rather than leave excessive amounts in very low yielding cash deposits. Market Overview Familiar concerns have dogged markets for much of the last 12 months, leading to fairly flat returns overall interspersed with spikes in volatility. Going back to mid-2015, the phrase Fed Fatigue was coined to describe waning patience with the debate surrounding interest rate rises. Grexit and a slowing China also loomed large among concerns, although some relief on the former was enough to create a better backdrop over summer. This came to a halt in August as fears about China escalated and sparked a so-called Black Monday as equities fell around the world. Amid ongoing volatility, the fourth quarter s key event came when the US Federal Reserve finally enacted a longawaited rate rise on 16 December. This broke months of Fed Fatigue and was enough to coerce a short-term bounce out of markets battered by plunging oil prices. So far, 2016 has continued in a similar vein: global markets suffered their worst start to a year in two decades and many indices including the FTSE 100 fell into bear territory. In the midst of this, central banks have been forced into evasive action, including softer rhetoric from the Fed, another major package from the ECB and Japan becoming the latest country to engage a negative interest rate policy. Such accommodative policy contributed to stronger markets in March, with emerging markets able to post their strongest gains in four years and a nascent commodities recovery. Page 5

Investment Manager s Report (continued) Market Overview (continued) While equity markets clearly looked healthier at the end of Q1 2016 than in the early weeks of the year where several indices dropped into bear territory plenty of concerns remain. The OECD issued a gloomy economic prognosis in February for example, cutting its forecast for global growth in 2016 from 3.3% to 3.0%, and citing substantial risks of financial instability. Rising demand for so-called safe haven assets has continued against this backdrop, pushing down government bond yields on both sides of the Atlantic. At the end of the review period, the yield on 10-year US treasuries was back below the 1.8% 4 level and gold has also fared well rising close to 16% 4 over the quarter. Meanwhile, the oil price managed to stage a small recovery over the quarter, rising to the $40 level, with hopes of a deal to freeze production. China s economic slowdown and transformation has been a factor in oil s decline from its peak of well over $100 a barrel. But this fall also reflects a price war in which traditional lower cost oil producers are trying to win market share from new, higher tech and higher cost entrants. A fall in the oil price is akin to a global cut in taxation to corporates and individuals, the magnitude of which neither governments nor their central banks could possibly replicate. Lower energy costs clearly supports the consumer, and in particular the western consumer. This dynamic slowing emerging market growth contributing to lower energy prices, which in turn boost developed market consumption has led to the prospect of a de-synchronised global economy. But it should clearly yield investment opportunities in certain areas. With respect to the commodities asset class itself, ongoing price weakness shows this remains a contrarian trade, but one we think could be worth consideration for investors willing to accept the accompanying volatility. Elsewhere, Brexit and the US elections loom large. In the long run, political risk typically has little effect on financial markets but that may be little compensation for investors increasingly anxious over the potential for Brexit. The difficulty for voters is to know what the consequences of leaving would be: for starters, the unwinding sounds like an unprecedented, daunting, and costly prospect. As the vote approaches, the ramifications will surely be felt increasingly by other asset classes: bond rating agencies and professional investors will no doubt be trawling through balance sheets at both the government and company level for downgrades. This will have implications at both sector and stock level. With globalisation continuing to unravel, we continue to foresee a period ahead of modest global economic growth and rising inflation, albeit at a pedestrian pace. Against a backdrop of many central banks still looking to loosen rather than tighten policy, traditional asset classes are not considered cheap but there is relative value for active managers, particularly in equities. We retain a long-term underweight allocation to fixed income, preferring to get diversification via low-correlation alternative and absolute return funds. We continue to see select opportunities in equities. In today s market, bargains are more likely to be found in Asia and global emerging markets, with the regions having underperformed the broader global equity benchmark as a result of a stronger dollar.
