Source: Oasis Crescent Capital (Pty) Ltd (Target Fund’s Investment Manager) Fund Performance (as at 30 April 2017) Cumulative performance over the period (%) Source: AmFunds Management Berhad 100.00 Target Fund Manager's Commentary The past year has been defined most prominently by a sharp increase in nationalist and populist rhetoric in a number of developed countries. The US presidential election ultimately saw an emboldened Donald Trump emerge victorious in a blow to globalisation and international trade, while reinvigorating short term nominal GDP growth expectations in the world’s largest economy. In the UK, citizens voted to leave the European Union, effectively rejecting the trade and immigration benefits which come with continental integration in favour of a more isolated and protectionist policy stance. Both these developments have the potential to impact global economy significantly, depending crucially on the scale and intensity of implementation by new leaders, while 2017 elections in the rest of Europe may give us even further evidence of the shift in public sentiment that we have seen so far. In emerging markets (EM) a number of structural changes continue to develop, including those taking place in China, where the government is pursuing a host of supply-side reforms. In the past year however, China has stimulated its economy somewhat through fiscal and monetary measures, which has stabilised growth expectations for 2017. Furthermore, a number of EM economies, such as Russia and Brazil are emerging from deep recessions, which is likely to prop up global growth to some extent. Overall, we expect global GDP growth to improve moderately over the next year, with risks evenly balanced. Global equity markets have continued their strong finish to 2016 into 2017 with most developed market indices reaching new highs despite a volatile economic and political environment. The rally in equities has resulted in most equity markets trading either in line or at a slight premium to their longterm valuations. Improving global growth expectations supported by the expectations that fiscal stimulus in the US could trigger a reinvigoration of growth have supported the equity rally in spite of the marginal increases in the US Fed Fund rate. With markets trading at elevated levels relative to history we believe investors need to be mindful of the political and economic uncertainty and the apprehension regarding the sustainability of expansionary fiscal measures. At the same time, rising funding costs through higher bond yields are likely to put pressure on those counters that are highly geared after an unprecedented period of having relatively easy access to funding. As a result, investors need to continue focusing on quality and value. During uncertain times, the market is likely to draw greater distinction between low and high quality companies which should play out very favourably for our portfolio positioning. Our share selection criteria continues to focus on market leaders which have sustainable competitive advantages and the ability to deliver superior Return on Equity (ROE) through the economic cycle. The higher free cash flow yields and stronger balance sheets of the companies in our portfolio ensures that they are able to invest in their businesses through the cycle, while providing sustainable returns to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases. We believe these qualities will continue to provide long-term wealth creation for our investors while taking on relatively lower risk than the market.
