Report Publisher € FUND MANAGER'S COMMENT 31/08/2021 FIXEDHKD INCOME AXA WF Asian High Yield Bonds A (H) m HKD Fund manager's report The Asian High Yield Bond Fund’s (or “AHY”) gross return was 2.46%, while JACI HY was 2.07%. Performance was supported by stable carry generated by underlying bonds and spread tightening driven the overall risk-on sentiment in the market. The outperformance was driven by our underweight in weak and highly leveraged single-B property credits. We don’t think the recovery and growth outlook is negated by the Delta – and possibly other – variant(s), but there could be some “air-pockets” in the data and in investor sentiment as a result. And for many, inflation and the prospect of tapering will need to be taken into account in managing portfolios. For monetary policy, now is not the time to tighten yet. Inflation has jumped higher but the ex-post look at price indices is likely to show a one-step jump in the level of prices during the COVID-era rather than a steepening of the price curve (inflation). The Jackson Hole speech from Jay Powell suggested that there are two decisions to make about tapering and rate increases. The tapering decision is based on progress towards the Fed’s economic targets – which there is. This allows some flexibility in terms of the timing and scale of running down asset purchases. For rate hikes, we need to see full employment and clear evidence that inflation is running at the Fed’s target. Those conditions are some way off while the path of GDP expansion has become a little bit more volatile. In the China property space, companies have recently reported their 1H2021 earnings. As expected, we have seen more credit divergence among developers. This will likely continue as the policy and funding environment remains tight for developers in the second half given the recent shift in growth models. As we expect sales to slow in the 2H2021, we remain highly selective in the sector. In the current policy environment resulting in very tight funding, developers with short landbank lifespans and weak liquidity profiles are likely to suffer. In addition, we have reduced our exposure to issuers with a high reliance on public bond markets as they are highly subject to bond market volatility. However, any spillover impact on quality issuers may provide an attractive entry point. Outside of China property, the situation is generally quiet, stable, and expensive. That is, excepting Sri Lanka of course. Speculation around the likelihood, and even the need, of IMF funding keeps investors guessing on fair value and curve positioning for the USD complex. As a result, front end volatility will continue while a resolution remains uncertain making Sri Lanka relevant for Asian credit investors.

  • Finance for Tomorrow Brings Together Asset Managers and Asset Owners
    Finance for Tomorrow brings together asset managers and asset owners representing 3.6 trillion euros in the first global engagement coalition to promote a just transition to low-carbon economies. Paris, 30 June 2021 – Finance for Tomorrow announces the launch of “Investors for a Just Transition”: the first global investor engagement coalition on the just transition. Bringing together asset managers and asset owners of the French financial ecosystem, along with corporates, the coalition aims to promote a socially acceptable transition to low-carbon economies. The founding members of the coalition will commit to engaging with companies, encouraging them to integrate the social aspects of the transition into their strategies and to highlight best practices within key industries. Through this collaborative platform, investors will work with different stakeholders – companies, labor unions, universities and research institutes – to define a common strategy and specific engagement objectives. Initiated by Finance for Tomorrow, the coalition currently represents 3.6 trillion euros and includes Amundi, Aviva France, AXA & AXA Investment Managers, Caisse des Dépôts, CNP Assurances, CPR Asset Management, Eiffel, ERAFP, La Banque Postale Asset Management, ODDO BHF Asset Management, Rothschild & Co Asset Management Europe, and SCOR Investment Partners among its founding members. Major players such as the Principles for Responsible Investment (PRI) have also joined the coalition as observers. With the COP26 to be held in a context marked by the social and economic fallout from the Covid-19 crisis, the concept of the just transition has emerged as a major factor of the global fight against climate change. Indeed, the environmental transition will only be possible through the consideration of social issues, whether they affect workers, local communities, consumers, or civil society as a whole.
