Allianz Global Investors Choice Fund Semi-Annual Report – For the six months ended 31 March 2021

Manager’s Report

Allianz Choice Flexi Balanced Fund

Market Review

Global equities surged over Q4 2020, driven by positive news on several COVID-19 vaccines, optimism over Joe Biden’s victory in the US presidential election and further US stimulus measures. Sentiment was also lifted by relief that the UK and EU had agreed on a last-minute deal regarding their future trading relationship. US bond yields rose amid fears that enhanced fiscal stimulus would feed into higher inflation. In contrast, bond yields fell across Europe as the European Central Bank extended its monetary support in an attempt to stem the rise in the euro and raise inflation.

In Q1 2021, global equities rallied strongly over the first quarter of 2021 as the roll-out of COVID-19 vaccines boosted optimism over the outlook for economic growth. The prospect of massive fiscal stimulus in the US further lifted sentiment. In a change from recent quarters, US lagged the gains in Japan and Europe as investors rotated out of highly-favoured growth stocks into ones with value characteristics. Global bonds sold off amid rising inflation expectations. US bonds recorded the worst quarter since the aftermath of 2016's surprise presidential election result. While yields on euro-zone bonds also moved higher, the upward yield movement was limited by resurgent COVID-19 infections across much of the EU, as well as by the European Central Bank’s pledge to step-up its asset purchase programme.

Outlook

With vaccine roll-out and supportive fiscal and monetary policy, US economic recovery shall remain on track to deliver strong growth in the coming quarters, which shall supportive risks sentiment. Although the on-going recovery in economy has resulted in significant re-pricing on monetary policy expectations in 1Q21, Fed officials continued to reiterate the strong commitment in maintaining accommodative monetary policy. Asset allocation and equity style exposure will be managed actively in a such rising interest rate environment. Within equity exposure, the fund continues to hold onto the names that would benefit from the post-covid-19 recovery. Within fixed income portfolio, the fund prefers shorter end of the global interest rate curve as the positive vaccine development may allow the broadening of economic recovery and point to steepening pressure. The fund also favors high grade quality corporates with strong balance sheet which offers yield enhancement opportunities over core government bonds.

Manager’s Report (continued)

Allianz Choice Asian Fund

Market Review

Equity markets in Asia rose sharply over the six months ending 31 March 2021. Stocks were boosted by positive news on several fronts including the efficacy of COVID-19 vaccines, signs of a global economy recovery, hopes for improved US/China relations and optimism over the new US administration’s plans for massive fiscal support. In this environment, Chinese equities delivered double-digit gains. The Chinese economy expanded by 6.5% in the fourth quarter of 2020, taking growth for the full year to 2.3% and making China the only major economy to have returned to pre-pandemic growth levels. There was some profit taking in regional equities towards the end of the period with concerns that the strength of the economic recovery in China would lead to some tightening of both fiscal and monetary policy. Additionally, internet companies were impacted by the prospect of increased regulatory scrutiny.

Elsewhere, Taiwan and Korea rallied as semiconductor-related stocks, which are a big part of both markets, benefitted from robust demand linked to structural trends such as the roll-out of 5G infrastructure and ongoing adoption of new technologies. ASEAN markets also advanced. Singapore was among the strongest markets as it benefitted from rising confidence that global trade would increase. India equities also posted strong returns, boosted by upbeat corporate earnings and the announcement of a pro-growth budget.

In terms of sector performance, information technology was the strongest performer over the period, whilst consumer discretionary and energy lagged.

Outlook

There has been a significant pull back in regional equity markets since Chinese New Year. This is partly due to some natural profit taking after the strong rally, as well as concerns over the potential for tighter liquidity conditions as China’s economy continues to recover from the pandemic-related weakness last year.

Looking ahead, we believe the scope for policy tightening in China is quite limited. One notable economic challenge remains the difficulty that the smallest companies have in getting access to funding. The key policy goal in China is to balance overall system leverage, especially in the property sector, with providing an ongoing level of fiscal support. Overall, we see recent events as a healthy, albeit quite sharp, period of market consolidation and remain positive on the longer term outlook.

The portfolio continues to be relatively diversified with a focus towards stocks with strong earnings visibility and sustainable growth prospects. Key themes in the portfolio include exposure to regional internet companies, 5G infrastructure, semiconductors and the consumer upgrade cycle.

Market Review

Global equities surged over the fourth quarter of 2020 driven by positive news on several COVID-19 vaccines, optimism over Joe Biden’s victory in the US presidential election and further US stimulus measures. Sentiment was also lifted by relief that the UK and EU had agreed on a last-minute deal regarding their future trading relationship. It was a mixed quarter for bonds. US bond yields rose amid fears that enhanced fiscal stimulus would feed into higher inflation. In contrast, bond yields fell across Europe as the European Central Bank extended its monetary support in an attempt to stem the rise in the euro and raise inflation.

In the first quarter of 2021, global equities continued to rally strongly, as the roll-out of COVID-19 vaccines boosted optimism over the outlook for economic growth. The prospect of massive fiscal stimulus in the US further lifted sentiment, although rising bond yields were a concern. In a change from recent quarters, US stocks lagged the gains in Japan and Europe as investors rotated out of highly-favoured growth stocks into ones with value characteristics. Global bonds sold off amid rising inflation expectations. US bonds recorded the worst quarter since the aftermath of 2016's surprise presidential election result. While yields on euro-zone bonds also moved higher, the upward yield movement was limited by resurgent COVID-19 infections across much of the EU, as well as by the European Central Bank’s pledge to step-up its asset purchase program.

Outlook

We continue to remain positive in equities due to the roll-out of COVID-19 vaccines and also the faster race of vaccination would serve a key catalyst to boost economic growth and sentiment. However, we will closely monitor the effectiveness to the mutated virus and the overall covid situation. Within developed markets, we favour US and Europe over Japan. Large scale of monetary and fiscal stimulus in US continue to help cushion economic and market impact of the virus shock, but we expect volatility to persist given the economic uncertainty. We have a positive view on Europe including UK as the acceleration of vaccination and hence the increase expectation of re-opening from their lockdown policy. Compare with US, it seems that there appears limited monetary and fiscal policy stimulus in Japan to support growth with policy rate already in negative zone. We are neutral on Asia ex Japan region. Fed balance sheet expansion and Biden’s infrastructure fiscal spending should see weakness in the USD in medium terms, which could prove beneficial to Asian markets. However, the pace of vaccination still fairly slow compare with developed markets. In addition, the normalization of credit impulse in China should dampen investor sentiment on risky asset despite that China has been stepping out from covid and capacity resume back to normal.

Market Review

Greater China equities rose over the six months ending 31 March 2021. Stocks were boosted by positive news on several fronts including the efficacy of COVID-19 vaccines, signs of a global economy recovery, hopes for improved US/China relations and optimism over the new US administration’s plans for massive fiscal support. Chinese equities delivered double-digit gains as the economy expanded by a stronger-than-expected 6.5% in the fourth quarter of 2020, taking growth for the full year to 2.3% and making China the only major economy to have returned to pre-pandemic growth levels. Hong Kong equities also rallied and reached multi-year highs in February amid strong inflows from mainland Chinese investors. There was some profit taking towards the end of the period with concerns that the strength of the economic recovery in China would lead to a tightening of both fiscal and monetary policy. Additionally, internet companies were impacted by the prospect of increased regulatory scrutiny.

Taiwan equities also delivered strong returns. Semiconductor-related stocks, which form a big part of the market, benefitted from robust demand linked to structural trends such as the roll-out of 5G infrastructure and ongoing adoption of new technologies.

In terms of sector performance, information technology was one of the strongest performers over the period, whilst consumer discretionary and consumer staples lagged.

Outlook

There has been a significant pull back in China and Hong Kong equity markets since Chinese New Year. This is partly due to some natural profit taking after the strong rally, as well as concerns over the potential for tighter liquidity conditions as China’s economy continues to recover from the pandemic-related weakness last year.

Allianz Global Investors Choice Fund Semi-Annual Report – For the six months ended 31 March 2021

Allianz Choice Global Equity Fund (15 January – 31 March 2021)

Market Review

Global equities rallied strongly over the first quarter of 2021 as the roll-out of COVID-19 vaccines boosted optimism over the outlook for economic growth. The prospect of massive fiscal stimulus in the US further lifted sentiment, although rising bond yields were a concern. In a change from recent quarters, US stocks lagged the gains in Japan and Europe as investors rotated out of highly-favoured growth stocks into ones with value characteristics. At a sector level, energy companies surged along with oil prices, while banks also soared as higher long-term bond yields lifted the outlook for their profit margins.

Outlook

Global equity markets continue to run with the reflation narrative. Led by the US, strong GDP and PMI numbers are boosting earnings expectations across the board, with more cyclical service sectors catching up with their counterparts. Already, some commentators have moved on to the question of when monetary policy must inevitably tighten and bring the party to an end. The advanced state of this discourse should in and of itself give investors reason to pause. Sustained inflation has variously failed to manifest in the years since the 2008 financial crisis, most famously after the election of Donald Trump in 2016. And while the unprecedented depth of economic inactivity sets the stage for this year’s expected bounce, key long-term deflationary forces remain in place.

Allianz Choice Hong Kong Fund

Market Review

Hong Kong equities rose over the six months ending 31st March 2021. Stocks were boosted by positive news on the efficacy of several COVID-19 vaccines, signs that the global economy was continuing to recover, especially in China. In terms of fundamentals, the Chinese economy expanded by a stronger-than-expected 6.5% in the fourth quarter of 2020, taking growth for the full year to 2.3%. This makes China the only major economy to have returned to pre-pandemic growth levels in 2020. Optimism over the recovery initially drove the market higher, with stocks touching record highs after financial markets re- opened in mid-February following Chinese New Year. However, the strength of the recovery fueled concerns of overheating and, with the country’s banking regulator warning of asset bubbles, fears grew that a gradual roll-back of fiscal policy would challenge equity market valuations. Additionally, technology shares were hit by the prospect of increased regulatory scrutiny.

The post Chinese New Year market correction also lead to style shifts from growth to value. During the review period, materials, financials and industrials stocks outperformed within the Hong Kong equity space; while consumer and telecommunications underperformed the broader market.

Outlook

As well as some natural profit taking, the market weakness since Chinese New Year has been caused by concerns over a potential tightening of monetary policy in China as the economic recovery accelerates.

In this context, recent dovish statements on credit policy from the PBOC should help to stabilise markets. The Q1 quarterly monetary policy committee (MPC) meeting focused on guiding down funding costs in real terms, confirming the 'no sharp turn’ policy stance. Given rising inflation expectations, the PBOC appears to be suggesting either no hike, or very limited increases, in policy rates this year.

One notable economic challenge in China remains the difficulty that the smallest (and typically unlisted) companies have getting access to funding. The policy messages suggest Beijing is still quite cautious about the growth recovery, and especially the unevenness across provinces. Equally, there are ongoing concerns about leverage in the property sector. So the key policy goal is to control overall system leverage while channelling funding away from real estate to other areas of the economy.

In terms of portfolio positioning, we continue to favor companies that can benefit from a recovery in economic growth post Covid-19. We also like companies that can benefit from the long term structural trends in China, including consumption upgrade, localization, manufacturing upgrade, renewable energy, etc.

Japanese equities also posted strong returns, helped by a weaker tone to the Japanese yen as well as interest in more economically sensitive stocks.

In terms of sector performance, information technology was the strongest performer over the period, whilst health care lagged.

Outlook

This is partly due to some natural profit taking after the strong rally, as well as concerns over the potential for tighter liquidity conditions as China’s economy continues to recover from the pandemic-related weakness last year.

Overall, we see recent events as a healthy, albeit quite sharp, period of market consolidation and remain positive on the longer term outlook.

The portfolio continues to be invested primarily in North Asian markets such as China, Taiwan, Japan and Korea. This includes having significant exposure to sectors such as information technology and healthcare where we expect many companies to be well supported by structural growth drivers.

Allianz Choice HK$ Liquidity Fund & Allianz Choice HK$ Cash Fund

Market Review

In Hong Kong, HKD spot rate stayed at the strong end of the band in Q4 2020 but started to depreciate slightly since end of February 2021. In March 2021, HKD depreciated by 0.23% against the USD, this was the largest movement in the currency since Q1 2020. However, Aggregate Balance remains at record high of HKD457 billion and short end Hong Kong interest rate continues to stay low, showing flush liquidity in the system. In the 2021/2022 fiscal budget, the government forecasted deficit spending to reach 3.6% of GDP. The budget included an additional fiscal package of around HKD120 billion. Key measures include funding support for pandemic response and vaccine procurement, support for enterprises and for individuals and households.

Outlook

The Hong Kong’s economy is expected to gradually recover this year and the government forecasted the 2021 GDP growth to reach between 3.5% to 5.5% this year, supported by the economy normalization and improved domestic consumption. Liquidity remains abundant which shall keep front end of Hong Kong’s rates low in the near future.

Allianz Choice RMB Money Market Fund

Market Review

The offshore RMB strengthened over the six-month period. In Q4 2020, the currency appreciated with a general risk-on sentiment owing to positive vaccine news, a perceived reduction in geopolitical risk with the election of Joe Biden, and the signing of the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) in mid-November which marked the creation of the world’s largest free-trade agreement. However, the offshore RMB started to depreciate in February 2021 with a wider risk off sentiment and a narrowing yield advantage over US. Economic data continued to be positive. China’s economy grew in the fourth quarter with Q4 GDP rising more than expectation, and industrial production also recorded a double digit growth year- on-year in February 2021.

Outlook

China’s growth recovery continues to be strong, and services and consumption shall lead recovery in 2021 if the pandemic remains contained. However, GDP sequential growth already passed the peak and will likely to slow. Looking forward we think industrial activities are likely to peak, while consumption demand is expected to continue improving as vaccinations are progressive rolled out. We think the government shall maintain a largely accommodative fiscal and monetary policy stance for the time being, though both are already pre-set on a gradual normalization trend.

Allianz Choice “Best Styles” Europe Fund

Market Review

European equities rallied strongly over the fourth quarter of 2020 (in EUR terms), buoyed by positive vaccine news, hopes that EU/US relations may improve once Joe Biden is in the White House, and relief that the UK and EU had reached agreement on a trade deal. Spain, Italy and France – three of the countries worst affected by the pandemic – were among the best performers. However, gains were tempered in December by signs that the continent may be suffering a third wave of COVID-19, causing many countries to re-impose strict restrictions over the Christmas holiday period and into 2021.

European equities delivered robust gains over the first quarter of 2021 (in EUR terms), coming within touching distance of the record high set in February 2020. In general, investors looked beyond a new wave of COVID-19 infections to focus on the longer-term outlook for Europe’s globally focused companies. The appreciation picked up steam in March when the European Central Bank (ECB) pledged to speed up its bond-buying programme in an attempt to protect euro-zone companies from the pressures of rising global bond yields.

Outlook

There are clear signs that economic growth is picking up. Falling infection rates thanks to steady (if uneven) progress with vaccinations, milder temperatures in the northern hemisphere and the gradual easing of lockdown restrictions mean that economies are beginning to open up again against a backdrop of continued supportive monetary policy. This is especially true in the US where Joe Biden has announced massive stimulus plans and huge strides have been made on the vaccine front. However, with sentiment indicators pointing to a slowdown in the economic upswing, the outlook seems less bright in China. The same can be said of Europe, where infection rates are climbing and the vaccine rollout has got off to a slow start. Taken on its own, the cyclical tailwind should benefit corporate earnings, and consequently equity markets as well. Given the significant price increases of recent months, corporate earnings growth is a particularly important barometer for markets. Risk abounds primarily in the form of rising inflation risk, which could force the big central banks to change their monetary policy.

"Best Styles” will continue to be overweight in stocks with attractive valuation and stocks with positive momentum and positive revisions, in line with the longer-term strategic investment style mix of “Best Styles” Europe Equity.

Allianz Choice “Best Styles” US Fund

Market Review

US stocks delivered double-digit gains over the fourth quarter of 2020, with major indices touching a series of fresh highs. The rally was driven by positive news on COVID-19 vaccines, as well as optimism over Joe Biden’s win in the presidential election.

US equities rallied over the first quarter of 2021, with the broad-based S&P 500 Index closing the quarter at a fresh record high. US stocks ratcheted steadily higher until mid-February, helped by a swift recovery in corporate earnings, signs of an easing in COVID-19 infections and the promise of massive fiscal stimulus. However, the size of the proposed stimulus measures triggered a sell-off in bonds, causing US stocks to reverse direction in the second half of February. Richly-valued growth stocks, in particular, were hit by a rise in long-term bond yields which lowered the value of their future earnings, while out-of-favour value stocks fared far better. March saw US companies resume their upward trend amid growing optimism over the outlook for the US economy. Smaller companies outstripped larger ones by a sizeable margin for much of the quarter.

Outlook

Our outlook for US equities remains favorable, with markets expecting strong double-digit earnings growth figures as the COVID-19 pandemic appears to be gradually in the rearview mirror thanks to the vaccine rollout and economic reopening. Given the significant price increases of recent months, corporate earnings growth is a particularly important barometer for stock markets, and any major disappointments could lead to a spike in volatility. The incessant government spending and higher inflation figures may translate to rising yields which could dampen stock expectations should rates outpace current expectations. Risk abounds primarily in the form of rising inflation risk, which could force the big central banks to change their monetary policy.

"Best Styles” will continue to be overweight in stocks with attractive valuation and stocks with positive momentum and positive revisions, in line with the longer-term strategic investment style mix of “Best Styles” US Equity.

Allianz Choice Global Fixed Income Fund

Market Review

Global government bond yields rose over the six-month period. In the US, the sell-off was driven by rising inflationary fears given incoming US president Joe Biden’s plans for massive fiscal stimulus. Risk aversion also decreased as the successful roll-out of COVID-19 vaccines spurred hopes of economic recovery. With short-term bond yields pegged by ultra-low interest rates, the continued to steepen. The Fed reiterated that it would continue with the current pace of its monthly bond-buying programme until “substantial further progress” had been made towards its twin goals of full employment and higher inflation.

In Europe, the upward movement in yields was relatively modest compared to US, heled by the European Central Bank’s (ECB) pledge to speed up its bond purchases. In addition, a third wave of COVID-19 infections across the continent helped to underpin demand for low-risk assets. Germany, France and Italy were among countries that were forced to tighten restrictions and extend lockdowns to help control rising COVID-19 infection rates and new mutations.

Outlook

With vaccine roll-out and supportive fiscal and monetary policy, US economic recovery shall remain on track to deliver strong growth in the coming quarters. While the on-going recovery in economy has resulted in significant re-pricing on monetary policy expectations in 1Q21, Fed officials continued to reiterate the strong commitment in maintaining accommodative monetary policy. We expect short end of the US Treasury yield curve shall be anchored by the official rates, but concern about higher inflationary pressure especially due to the low base effect in the Q2 may keep the longer end of the curve under upward pressure in the near term.

The fund currently holds an underweight position in the longer end of the global interest rate curve as vaccination shall allow the broadening of economic recovery with better growth prospect to be featured by higher long end rates. The fund also favors high grade quality corporates in the shorter end of the curve which offers attractive yield enhancement opportunities.

Allianz Global Investors Choice Fund Semi-Annual Report – For the six months ended 31 March 2021

Manager’s Report (continued)

Allianz Choice Japan Fund

Market Review

Japanese equities rose significantly during the period from October 2020 to March 2021. The TOPIX index (total return) ended the period up 21.5% in local terms.

Japanese equities steadily rose during the period, supported by positive news on several COVID-19 vaccines, the prospect of massive fiscal stimulus in the US as well as better-than-expected corporate earnings.

In terms of sector, cyclical sectors from energy to materials and financials outperformed as the market focused on a recovery of economy activities with COVID-19 vaccines. On the other hands, health care and consumer staples sectors underperformed due to the market rotation from growth/defensive stocks to value stocks.

Outlook

We expect the equity market will continue to be affected by COVID-19 vaccine effectiveness as well as COVID-19 situations. However, global economic recovery trend and robust corporate earnings, whose momentum is expected to accelerate in Apr- Jun season, will continue to support the equity market.

Under these circumstances, the portfolio is focused towards stocks with positive earnings momentum, a sensitivity to bond yields, and unique growth drivers, as well as paying attention to stock price valuations and shareholder return stances.
