Report as of 31 Jul 2017 Kleinwort Benson Elite EUR Fixed Income Fund B EUR Inc Rpt Morningstar Rating™ Morningstar® Category QQQ EUR Diversified Bond Investment Objective The Fund seeks to produce returns by way of income with the possibility of capital growth over the medium to long term with low volatility through a portfolio of predominantly Euro denominated fixed income and cash investments. Fund Manager Commentary Economic sentiment in the Eurozone hit its highest level since 2007, with the mood increasingly elevated through 2017 by “soft” factors such as election results in Holland and France, and “hard” uplifts in economic growth and unemployment. This positivity has increased pressure on the European Central Bank to start tightening its historically loose monetary policy, which in turn has sent the euro soaring; the currency is up over 11% versus the US dollar so far this year. Eurozone unemployment has fallen to 9.1%, reaching yet another post-crisis low. Crucially, there was a marked improvement in youth unemployment, which fell to 16.7% from 18.8%. But souring the mood is inflation: headline inflation is at 1.3%, emphasising large output gaps already evident from the high rate of unemployment. As expected, the ECB made no changes to interest rates or its bonds purchase program in July. However, Mario Draghi, head of the ECB, appeared unperturbed by the recent rally in the euro. While he acknowledged the currency’s strength “received some attention”, he followed it by saying conditions remain “broadly supportive to secure a sustained return of inflation.” That kept expectations of an impending quantitative tightening early next year. The fund was down 0.2% on the month.
