OM Albaraka Balanced comment - Jun 19

Markets responded negatively to a State of the Nation Address that was big on goals but short on action plans and we now have an increasingly likely rate cut by the South African Reserve Bank (SARB) in the third quarter. Globally, the US-China trade saga took another hopeful turn and the markets are optimistic that talks will eventually lead to a deal by year-end. Markets saw a risk on sentiment regarding an expansionary European Central Bank and priced in a dovish US Federal Reserve rate cut in July and another in Q4.
The FTSE/JSE All Share (ALSI) was up by 3.92% over the quarter ending June 2019. Large, midand small caps returned +4.61%, +1.45% and +1.84% respectively for June 2019. The sectors that contributed positively in the ALSI for the quarter were telecommunications and consumer goods, returning 18.65% and 5.63% respectively. The worst performing sectors for the quarter, down by -8.26% and -2.02% respectively, were healthcare and industrials. The local currency strengthened against the greenback by 2.72%, by 5.37% against the sterling and 1.44% against the euro for the quarter ending June 2019. In this context, the fund returned +1.47% for the quarter ending June 2019.
The fund’s offshore allocation is at approximately 25%, providing investors with significant diversification benefits. This is a Regulation 28-compliant, medium-equity allocation fund, which means that in terms of its mandate it can hold a maximum of 60% in equities.
The fund’s current allocation to equities is roughly 60%; around 40% of the fund is invested in domestic equities and approximately 20% in offshore equities. Shari’ah-compliant short-term cash investments now comprise 40% of the fund.
The Old Mutual Albaraka Balanced Fund is a Shari'ah compliant asset allocation fund that offers investors access to local and international asset classes including equity, liquid assets and non-equity securities, such as sukuks (Islamic bonds) and equity conduits. The fund may also invest in the portfolios of other unit trusts, both locally and those registered in countries with acceptable regulatory environments.
The fund is regulation 28 compliant and is suitable for retirement fund investors.
