Element Earth Equity SCI Fund - Sep 18
2019/01/04 00:00:00
Quarterly Commentary
The Element Earth Equity SCI Fund realised a total return of 0.3% for the quarter to the end of September 2018, ahead of its benchmark’s (FTSE/JSE All Share Index: “ALSI”) return of -2.2% over the quarter.
The September 2018 quarterly performance brings the rolling one year total performance of the Fund to -0.2% and annualised over the last three years to 8.4% (note that all returns are net of fees).
The Fund’s outperformance for the quarter was largely due to our underweight position in Naspers and overweight position in Anglogold. Naspers’ weak share price performance of -12% over the quarter was driven by a weak performance of its large investment in Tencent Holdings, which was down -18% over the quarter. Tencent was weaker due to increased regulation in the Chinese online gaming market.
The Element Earth Equity Fund is an actively managed, domestic general equity fund that aims to provide investors with the opportunity to achieve long-term capital appreciation with a moderate level of income. This is done by investing in a portfolio of equities listed on the JSE.
In addition, the fund uses its presence to promote awareness of corporate responsibility performance measurements, including environmental management, social responsibility, economic empowerment and corporate governance. This is achieved through constructive engagement with management of the companies in which the fund invests in.
The fund is suitable for individuals who are in wealth build-up phase or individuals and small retirement funds that wish to make a positive impact on the corporate landscape by investing in a fund that promotes good corporate citizenship.
