When there is a significant decline in the levels of stock markets, fund managers, commentators and historians look for precedents to create some kind of context.

If we can see that something has happened before, or something very similar, we feel we can get a better perspective about what is happening to us now; and if we understand that we feel we can see some path forward in the future.

In the current episode I have seen comparisons with economic events that go back to the early 1700s; and by some measures the impact is worse than the 1929 Wall Street stock market crash and the following Great Depression.

The respected Money Week magazine drew a convincing parallel to the 1957 US stock market crash which combined a recession, a deadly outbreak of flu and then large-scale unemployment.

But how much use is all of this analysis as we look at the value of our investments? Well, not to put too fine a point on it, I would say it is fairly useless, because it is the future not the past which is important to us.

That is what we are trying to focus on with this issue; but we have not tried to answer a question that many of you have asked: “When is the bottom of the markets coming?”

The bottom is only ever apparent well after the event, and even then analysts tend to debate among themselves whether something was the bottom or not.

From speaking to many of you over the last three years, I know you tend to be fully invested in the stock markets and property assets and have cash set aside as a ‘rainy day’ backstop rather than using that cash to dive in and out of the markets when you think a bottom has arrived.

I received the statement on my pension fund in the middle of March, just as the UK was beginning to being gripped by covid-19 and it made for sobering reading.

All the benefits of the rise in most markets during 2019 had been wiped out in those first 10 weeks of 2020. My investments are now back to 2017 or 2018 levels, so I share the ‘investment pain’ many of you will be feeling.

The one bit of advice which I think many of you will already know and will be practicing is not to panic. You will hopefully have

not sold out as the markets pulled back, unless you urgently needed cash.

Just as importantly, now is not to make switches into investments which might look like they will help you claw back all those lost gains in a short space of time.

It is periods like this where some unscrupulous investment schemes are promoting returns or levels of income significantly above the average of the stock market or cash deposits.

Remember the old adage: “If it looks too good to be true…“ and if you see an ‘investment’ offering 6,7, 8 or even up to 10% income or interest annually be very careful.

The other area to be wary of is the active versus passive question. It is not a binary one, the future is likely to see a blend of both active funds and a bit of passive because both can work in different markets in different ways based on your needs.

Mostly importantly do not take any risks with your hard-earned wealth; or with your health.

In the next issue of the magazine we will be answering in detail some of the questions you have been asking us recently, so if you have any please email or write to me and we will address them directly.

Some subscribers have faced delays in receiving their magazines since the covid-19 lockdown started. Please accept our apologies and thank you for your patience as we do our best to get your copies to you.

Allica Bank (www.allica.bank), clients of which are small and medium-sized businesses, has launched a deposit account for retail savers, offering an interest rate of 1.49%, fixed for 12 months.

Accounts can be opened online and managed through the bank’s internet banking platform and secure messaging service.

Minimum investment is £1,000 and maximum £250,000. Interest is calculated daily and paid monthly (to the date of opening) or upon maturation of the product. Savers have up to 14 days to deposit all their funds before the fixed term begins.

 Lawrence Holland, head of deposits at Allica Bank, said: “We believe this 12-month fixed rate

deposit is an appealing alternative to savers seeking reassurance during uniquely turbulent times.”

Mark Stephens, CEO of Allica Bank, said: “Our proposition uses the latest technology to provide a great customer experience but will always be supported by human relationships and expertise where needed.”

RCI Bank UK has opened a 95 Day Notice Account offering 1.4% AER gross variable, minimum deposit £1,000 and maximum £1m. Customers can choose to have their interest paid monthly or annually (www.rcibank.co.uk).

On its launch Anna Bowes, co-founder of savings advice platform Savings Champion wrote: “Although not currently

making it into our best buy tables, it is in the top five three-month notice accounts and RCI Bank has been a pretty safe pair of hands since it launched in the UK nearly five years ago.

“RCI is probably best known for its easy access Freedom Savings Account, launched in June 2015. What made this account stand out, apart from its competitive rate, is that there was no bonus that would drop off after 12 months, no restriction in the number of withdrawals that can be made each year and all customers earn the same rate – existing and new.

“This simplicity is something that RCI is extending to its new 95-day notice account, as it has pledged not to keep offering different issues – it will

simply pay the same rate to all customers.

“If this account behaves as the Freedom Savings account has and remains competitive, even if not market leading, then many may feel assured that they do not need to be constantly reviewing and switching.”

Leeds Building Society (www.leedsbuildingsociety.co.uk) has launched an easy access savings account called Defined Access Saver (Issue 2). Minimum investment is £5,000, maximum £1m. Interest is paid in tiers: 0.5% AER gross variable on balances between £5,000 and £24,999.99; 0.6% for between £25,000 and £49,999.99 and 0.70% on £50,000 plus. Below £5,000 the interest rate is 0.05%. Interest is calculated daily and paid annually on 30 September. SS

Clim8 Invest, a new mobile fintech platform for sustainable investments, has launched a Crowdcube campaign giving people a chance to invest in solutions that will fight climate change and protect the environment.

 The fund raise is a second round, the platform having raised £650,000 in 2019. The new funds will support the completion of the investment platform, grow the company’s team of experienced professionals and further support business growth.

 This is the first public opportunity to invest directly in the company, the previous funding being a private round with existing investors and some new investors.

 Investors include board directors of fintechs, such as Marcus Exall

(Monese) and Marcus Mosen (N26).   Clim8’s investors will be able to

track their investments via a user-friendly app. The investments aim to channel funding towards clean energy and sustainable companies that are making a positive impact on climate change. Themes include clean energy, cleantech, smart mobility, sustainable food and recycling.

Investment is via fundraising platford Crowdcube at www.crowdcube.com/clim8 where investors can register their interest by joining a waiting list and download the app and access the platform.

Duncan Grierson, founder and chief executive, said: “While the world grapples with the covid-19 pandemic, we must not lose our focus on the

longer-term climate crisis which will be a much bigger problem. Many people want to help by investing their savings into positive climate solutions; this is what the app is all about.”

 Luke Lang, co-founder and chief marketing officer of Crowdcube, said: “We are honoured to partner with Clim8 Invest, a brilliant idea to fulfil the rising tide of people’s desire to invest in companies with a big mission.

“We at Crowdcube believe it is this blend of engagement and purpose which will drive the shape of businesses in the future, and as a result combat the world’s climate crisis. We look forward to supporting them in their drive for true mission-led growth.” SS

The stockmarket sell-off due to the coronavirus pandemic has been widespread and indiscriminate. Understandably, this will have been very traumatic for investors. However, at times like these, it is worth remembering what legendary investor Anthony Bolton – and former Fidelity Special Values PLC manager – once said: “The darkest hour is just before dawn.”

This is not to downplay the challenges ahead. The lockdown currently estimated to last between six weeks and six months is going to result in a significant economic contraction in both the UK and most economies globally. This will have implications for companies’ earnings and dividend pay-outs. In the meantime, markets are likely to remain volatile.

However, as a bottom-up investor whose focus is on individual stocks, I am currently finding a lot of opportunities to buy very attractively valued companies, whose share price does not reflect their underlying fundamentals. The sell-off has been relatively indiscriminate and creates opportunities for patient, selective, long-term investors.

A portfolio of undervalued stocksTurning to Fidelity Special Values PLC, the trust has

Fidelity Special Values PLC portfolio manager Alex Wright reminds us that challenging markets present opportunity to patient long-term investors

underperformed significantly this year. The underperformance of ‘value’ stocks – the area of the market where I tend to invest – has been particularly pronounced as investors turned to companies or sectors they saw as low risk or high quality, irrespective of valuations and long-term prospects.

What makes me confident about the prospects for the trust going forward is that the companies within the portfolio are currently very cheap. The trust is trading close to historically low valuations.

Reacting to the market environmentI am very mindful of the current situation and how this could affect the portfolio and have actively repositioned the trust where required. I, along with our analysts, have been reaching out to companies. Our prime focus has been to consider the impact of a three- to six-month shutdown on each company, and if they have sufficient access to cash to survive.

In terms of portfolio activity, I have sold or reduced the trust’s most levered positions – those companies with sizeable debts – although these were very small to start with. I have also sold or reduced those stocks most impacted by the coronavirus/

oil price slump and where the outlook has worsened beyond the short term. Here I have sold airlines and reduced exposure to oil producers.

I have taken advantage of the very low valuations to add to the trust’s market exposure, increasing the gearing (borrowing) from 3% to 12%. I have added to those companies in which I have a lot of conviction, particularly where I feel the sell-off has resulted in a disconnect between a stock’s price and its underlying fundamentals. This includes a lot of defensive businesses, which should be considerably less affected by the current crisis but whose share prices fell by 20% or more.

ConclusionI wanted to leave readers and existing investors in the trust with the message that, while the coming months are likely to prove very challenging, markets are currently presenting patient long-term investors with the opportunity to buy companies at exceptional prices, without having to take a big cyclical risk. The trust remains diversified across stocks, sectors and market capitalisations. While it is geared to the market given the cheapness of value stocks, the portfolio is well balanced with a defensive tilt.

Important information: The value of investments can go down as well as up and you may not get back the amount you invested. Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future returns. Investors should note that the views expressed may no longer be current and may have already been acted upon. Overseas investments are subject to currency fluctuations. The shares in the investment trust are listed on the London Stock Exchange and their price is affected by supply and demand. The investment trust can gain additional exposure to the market, known as gearing, potentially increasing volatility. This trust invests more heavily than others in smaller companies, which can carry a higher risk because their share prices may be more volatile than those of larger companies and the securities are often less liquid. This fund uses financial derivative instruments for investment purposes, which may expose the fund to a higher degree of risk and can cause investments to experience larger than average price fluctuations.

Schroders plc has completed its on-boarding of £75 bn of Scottish Widows and Lloyds insurance and wealth-related assets, following the announcement in October 2018 of a strategic partnership between Schroders and Lloyds Banking Group. 

The migration of the assets to Schroders was completed in seven tranches between September 2019 and March 2020.

The mandates comprise more than 320 portfolios, including Active Equity, Equity Alpha, Equity Low Risk Active, Fixed Income, Multi Manager, Multi Asset, Portfolio Solutions, Private Equity and Property funds.

Peter Harrison, group chief executive at Schroders’ Group said: “The completion of on-boarding such a significant mandate is a monumental achievement for Schroders and underlines our strategy and commitment to being the leading active manager. 

“We are incredibly proud of the work done to achieve this milestone, which is the culmination of a year-long project by a dedicated team of Schroders colleagues, alongside Lloyds Banking Group and other key stakeholders. It is all the more significant that this has been completed on time and on target, despite the challenging conditions of recent weeks due to the covid-19 situation.

“This partnership demonstrates our ability to manage large and complex portfolios, providing consistent returns for investors, which are as important as ever in today’s uncertain times.”

Antonio Lorenzo, chief executive of Scottish Widows and group director of Insurance & Wealth, said: “I am delighted that what we believe is the largest asset transfer in the UK has been successfully completed on schedule, particularly given the current environment. Our partnership with Schroders will give our customers leading investment management expertise, a stable investment team and strong performance across multiple asset classes.”

Jason Hollands, managing director of Tilney Investment Management Services said: “These assets were previously managed, under contract, by Aberdeen Standard Investments, much of which represent insurance funds. The vast majority of Scottish Widows policyholders will

therefore be oblivious as to who has been or will now be managing the assets that stand behind their life policies.

“There is however a bloc of assets within this that represents pension funds and retail investment funds, including those that were previously distributed through the Lloyds Banking network and which now form part of assets transferred into the Lloyds/Schroders joint venture, Schroder Personal Wealth.

“As with any funds, investors should periodically review whether the products they own are delivering on expectations, represent value for money or whether they might do better elsewhere. Schroders has many strengths in its asset management capabilities, but no group is universally the best choice across the board, and the new wealth joint venture is effectively a start-up despite the established brand attached.” SS

Inflation is not something that challenges economies and markets so much these days, with deflation almost more of a concern.

If you wanted inflation-linked bonds or savings you would be hard pressed to find them at the moment, which perhaps tells us something. However, whether the covid-19 pandemic could bring about the return of inflation and what savers and investors can do to hedge their prospects ahead of that is quietly being considered in a number of corners.

Randeep Somel, associate fund manager at M&G Investments has commented on this.

“The pandemic has, with dramatic effect, shown the weaknesses in global supply chains, and for the first time post World War II, led to governments all across the world closing their borders and airspace,” he said.

“A long-term consequence of this global pandemic may be that localisation of supply chains becomes prominent again – both companies and governments will prioritise security and accessibility over cost.”

Somel cited the US $2bn stimulus package announced in America, the €750bn stimulus package in Germany and the EU suspension of debt and deficit requirements across the European bloc as evidence of real change.

“While stimulus measures are required in times of large unexpected shocks, the scale and speed of the stimulus we have just witnessed is unprecedented.

Covid-19 prompts talk of index-linked bond comeback

United Kingdom | Fixed Income | M&G Investments

“The economic costs of covid-19 are still unknown, but policymakers have thrown caution to the wind and planned for the worst case scenario,” said Somel.

He added: “Let us now take one step forward. Once we have returned to some level of normality – and should the slow, but increasingly important trend of trade barriers begin to rise – we could find ourselves in a world with an excess of economic stimulus. Then, we are likely to see some longer-term economic implications.

“The death of the treasury 30+ year bull market has been predicted many times.  It will require sustained inflation in the system to force longer term interest rates up. 

“While our minds could not be further away from that thought today, the ingredients for this eventuality are all just

going into the mix. Policy choices have unintended consequences, especially when they are made in times of extreme pressure.”

A rush to inflation beating rates of return may not be high on the agenda, but there are savers and investors who commonly look for certainty of return.

Amidst the dearth of inflation linking bonds and products, investors could look to the smattering of funds that can offer inflation linking.

There is the iShares £ Index Linked Gilts ETF (GBP Dist) and the Lyxor Core FTSE Actuaries UK Gilts (DR) Ucits ETF. Performance year-to-date (YTD) of the latter is 1.73%, 0.31% three year annualised and 0.96% five year annualised (to 9/4/2020). The former return YTD was 6.11%, 3 year annualised 2.75% and five years annualised 6.29%.

The Lyxor Core FTSE Actuaries UK Gilts (DR)

Ucits ETF – Dist aims to track the benchmark index FTSE Actuaries UK Conventional Gilts All Stocks Total Return. The iShares ETF seeks to track the performance of an index composed of UK inflation-linked government bonds.

The M&G UK Inflation Linked Corporate Bond (GBP) Acc fund returned 1.73% YTD (9/4/2020) with three year annualised 0.31% and five year annualised 0.96%.

Invesco meanwhile has launched a Invesco GBP Corporate Bond UCITS ETF, with an ongoing charge of 0.10% pa.

It aims to deliver the performance of the Bloomberg Barclays Sterling Liquid Corporate Bond Index (after fees), which comprises investment grade, fixed-rate securities denominated in sterling.

Paul Syms, head of ETF fixed income product management at Invesco, said: “The current market volatility and widespread concerns around the coronavirus pandemic is driving a risk-off environment.

“Government bond yields have tumbled to all-time lows while credit yields have risen at a time when the Bank of England’s policy response is designed to support both asset classes, meaning credit could be looking more attractive.

“The wider spreads between government and investment grade credit is offering investors higher yields without having to venture too far out the credit quality spectrum.” SS

“A long-term consequence of this global pandemic may be that…

both companies and governments will prioritise security and accessibility over cost”

Investors are placing their bets on gold as an investment, it seems – piling into gold products on the market as the covid-19 pandemic hits equity markets and oil prices fall. Experts are also optimistic on the commodity.

Gold has not been immune to price fluctuations: at the end of February gold fell from £1,308.73 per ounce to £1,226.34 – a drop of 6.29%. However, on 7 April the price rose from £1,324 to £1,367 an ounce, up 3%.

Three products investing in gold have reported record levels of investment and reached their funding targets ahead of time.

The Royal Mint Physical Gold Securities ETC (RMAU) from ETF specialist HANetf (https://www.hanetf.com/product/7/fund/the-royal-mint-physical-gold-etc-securities) has reached the $200m AUM milestone just weeks after launch, becoming one of the fastest growing gold-backed ETCs in Europe. RMAU has had a growth of 30.46% since listing on London Stock Exchange in February 2020.

RMAU is the first financially-listed product to be backed by The Royal Mint and the first physical gold backed ETC to be launched in partnership with a European sovereign mint.

The physical gold associated with RMAU is held in The Royal Mint’s purpose-built vault. Most other gold ETCs custody their gold at commercial banks, so the provider said RMAU offers an attractive alternative to investors looking to diversify their custody arrangements.

Hector McNeil, co-founder and co-chief executive officer at HANetf said: “Increased interest in gold is no surprise considering the multitude of risks that have emerged so far in 2020. RMAU is the only physical gold ETC to be 100% backed by gold certified by the LBMA [the trade transparency and reporting service for the precious metals market] responsible sourcing program, meaning investors can

continue to meet ESG goals while increasing downside protection to their portfolio.”

The RMAU ETC is priced at 0.22% pa.However as Jason Hollands,

managing director, business, development and communications at financial planners Tilney Investment Management has pointed out: “While you have the security of the Royal Mint behind this and the facility to exchange your ETC for physical gold is a differentiating – but largely cosmetic – feature, the annual costs of 0.22% are

quite a premium to the 0.19% ongoing fees on the Invesco Physical Gold ETC.

“The latter also has full replication, with bullion stored in JP Morgan Chase’s London vaults and therefore is a more competitive product for those wanting to allocate to gold as a pure investment position.”

Invesco’s Physical Gold Exchange Traded Commodity (ETC) (https://etf.invesco.com/gb/private/en/product/invesco-physical-gold-etc/trading-information) hit US$10bn in assets for the first time in its 10-year history, after record flows into the product in the first quarter of 2020. The ETC has grown 40% in terms of the value of its assets, or 30% without factoring in the increase in the gold price since the start of the year.

Historically, the fund claims low

bid-offer spreads (typically between 2-3 basis points) and said that in March, when the gold market came under severe stress due to global supply chain fears, spreads on its ETC remained tighter and more stable than its competitors.

The ETC is designed to provide the performance of the gold price, less the annual fee. Investments are used to purchase physical gold bars, which are held in an allocated account and stored securely in the London vaults of J.P. Morgan Chase Bank.

Chris Mellor, head of ETF equity and commodity product management at Invesco, said: “Investors are using ETCs to allocate to gold due to their liquidity and low costs – even at a time of abnormal market stress, record spreads, and when traditional physical trading routes and infrastructures are being restricted or even shut. Indeed, ETCs have weathered the quarter extremely well and delivered exceptional value for investors at a time of profound volatility and market disruption.

“Gold has been shown to be a safer store of value during the recent market turmoil than most other assets, and demand from investors has continued to grow. We expect this demand to continue in the foreseeable future as investors seek to capitalise on the benefits of ETCs to rebalance portfolios and reflect the market environment.”

Away from more mainstream investment options, fintech company Glint (https://glintpay.com), which enables physical gold and multiple fiat currencies to be used as e-money for spending via Glint’s pre-paid debit Mastercard, has seen the average individual purchase of gold via its app double in the last few weeks, from £1,373 to £2,739.

Jason Cozens, founder and chief executive officer of Glint said: “During these extraordinary days people are demonstrating that gold remains powerfully attractive and very useful. Glint provides customers with gold as a usable currency.” SS

With a pandemic sweeping the globe and causing panic in stock markets, investors may be looking for ways to tap into scientific innovation, while also diversifying in the face of a punishing sell-off. Biotechnology ticks both boxes and owning the theme through an investment trust can bring even more benefits.

International Biotechnology Trust (IBT) invests primarily in US-based drug-makers with a global reach that meet a medical need for consumers. IBT is also the only biotech trust which caters to income-seeking investors, offering an attractive dividend of 4% of NAV as well as the potential for rapid capital growth.

Intellectual propertyLed by Carl Harald Janson, a medical doctor by background, IBT’s investment team seeks out those businesses which can produce strong top-line growth. For this they need intellectual property which gives them pricing power and a competitive edge or monopoly. More than half the portfolio is invested in companies working in the specialisms of oncology (the treatment of cancer) and rare diseases, where barriers to entry are high. For example, one of the largest positions in the fund is in Vertex. A growth story in the treatment of rare diseases, it dominates the cystic fibrosis space, treating around 90% of patients.

Portfolio breakdownAt the geographical level, the fund is heavily skewed towards the US, the home of the biotech industry. It is

well diversified across the market-cap spectrum, and holds, directly and indirectly, approximately 100 companies at different stages of development working in a range of therapeutic areas. The portfolio is predominantly in large and mid-caps, although it also holds some small-cap companies of less than $1bn in size.

Alongside the names in its listed company portfolio, IBT also has a smaller portfolio of unquoted biotech stocks, most of which are held through an investment in a venture fund, SV Fund VI. This unquoted portfolio has proven itself to be an excellent diversifier, making a significant contribution to performance last year when biotech stocks as a whole struggled.

The M&A advantageRoughly two-thirds of the development of new drugs happens within smaller companies, while two-thirds of their commercialisation happens in large companies. This explains why merger and acquisition activity is so frequent within the biotech space. For IBT, this has been a happy side effect of choosing the strongest companies with the best valuations: 16 of the portfolio’s holdings have been M&A targets since 2017, with an average 58% premium paid on the deals.

Dampening volatilityBiotech is naturally volatile because a company’s fortunes can pivot on the results of a single drug trial. IBT’s managers attempt to reduce the impact

of binary events that could send share prices up or down. What this means in practice is that they will reduce their exposure before the results of a critical trial, for example. While they might lose out on some of the last bit of outperformance from a stock by doing this, it also means they won’t be so affected by a sharp share price fall if the trial ends unsuccessfully.

A rare yieldThe International Biotechnology Trust is the only one of its peers to pay a yield. Following a dividend policy introduced in 2016, the dividend of 4% of NAV per annum is paid from capital – effectively converting some of the underlying holdings’ capital growth into income each year – making the trust a compelling option for income-seekers as well as growth investors. Given that this dividend is paid from capital, it is not contingent on receipt of income from underlying portfolio companies.

Delivering an annualised return of 15% a year over the last decade, biotechnology has outperformed the annualised 8.75% return from the MSCI World over the long term*.

It is a strange combination, I admit, but the grasping Roman ruler, Marcus Licinius Crassus, and A. A. Milne’s lovable grump, Eeyore, can offer inspiration to pensioners reliant on their investments in these troubled times.

Let us start with Crassus. A slave trader, he was the wealthiest man in Rome. His financial success came from his astute observation that Rome did not have a fire service. So he created one with his own slaves. When a building was ablaze, they would rush to the scene. And then stand doing nothing.

Crassus would arrive and offer to buy the building at a “fire sale” price. If the owner refused his parsimonious offer, he would let the building burn until it was worthless.

It is not a conventional way to build a property portfolio, but it was effective.

Many of us have had our fingers burned in this crisis. Some will be forced sellers, and forced sellers get fire sale prices. The conventional wisdom is to stay invested until markets recover.

DrawdownThat is not so easy for someone in retirement with a drawdown pension who relies on their investments for income.

Since pension freedoms were announced in 2015, the majority of people entering retirement have opted for drawdown over buying an annuity. There are lots of good reasons for this, but one of the challenges is drawing the right income.

rocket scientist turned financial planner wrote an article in the Journal of Financial Planning calculating a sensible number. William P. Bengen studied returns from various asset classes over the previous seven

decades and concluded that you could take 4% a year with an annual cost-of-living increase. The strategy should see you through at least 30 years (including bear markets).

More recently it has been challenged. We live in an era of low returns. Quantitative easing has skewed bond returns. Starting out at 3.25% net of fees is considered more sustainable. Both strategies depend on you being appropriately invested.

But one of the advantages of drawdown is that it can be flexible. This can work for and against you. Most of us probably want more in the early years of retirement. You might think you could take 6% in the first decade and 3% thereafter, rather than 4%. But when you first retire your pension pot is at its biggest. That is when the compounding benefits of dividend and capital growth are at their most powerful. If you erode capital too quickly at this point you

bring forward the point when the pot runs dry quite dramatically.

Taming the bearThat leaves the question of what to do in a market crash. This may sound like closing

the door when the stable is suddenly eerily empty, but for younger readers considering a drawdown strategy and nervous about how to manage it in conditions like today, the answer is to build an emergency cash stash.

How much cash you need depends on your sources of retirement income. If you rely solely on non-drawdown income – the state pension, a final salary pension and/or annuity income – you have less cause to worry about markets and the equivalent of six months’ income should see you through issues like an exploding central heating boiler.

For those relying heavily on drawdown, two years’ supply of cash is a more prudent emergency pot. A two-year cash buffer enables you to switch strategies and draw on your emergency pot, replenishing it when markets have revived.

If you have to sell assets

within your portfolio then it makes sense to sell the most liquid first – think bonds and treasuries.

There is another option, but it is quite drastic and should only be taken with professional advice. Those investors who have a lot of illiquid assets behind them may consider borrowing. It may only be for a couple of years. Since the FTSE All-Share was launched in 1962 there have been 10 bear markets with an average duration just over a year. But markets can take years to recover too, so there is the risk of your loan extending longer than you hope.

If none of these options is possible or appeals, there is another more obvious step – draw less and cut your spending. But before you do that, talk to your adviser. We worry about pensioners living beyond their means and running out of cash, but there are also many retirees living needlessly frugal lives. A good adviser should be able to put you at ease about just how much you can afford to spend.

When the world reopens its doors it is going to need some pensioners to be profligate. If you can afford it, consider it a public duty!

And this crisis will end, which is where Eeyore comes in. Winnie the Pooh’s dour friend could occasionally offer some surprising words of comfort. He said: “The nicest thing about rain is that it always stops. Eventually.”

N ow is not the time for observation. Comments like “The impact of

covid-19 has had a massive effect on many people” will not achieve much.

Now is the time for containing further loss, stopping the possibility of being caught out again and acting on the opportunities adversity always presents.

Now is time for the rational mind, not the emotional.

Now is the time to follow a strong financial planning process.

Not everyone is affected in the same way but all of us use a system of some sort for evaluation, decision making and management to get back on track.

A professional planner will have spent many years perfecting their system so that the probability of success is greatly enhanced. The system should be followable with relative ease, help maintain the enthusiasm needed to keep going and deliver a feeling of achievement on completion.

How does this work in practice? Let us take the example of a couple in their mid-40s who are asking: “How will this affect our jobs?”; “Will this impact on our children’s education?”; “Will it affect the family holidays we can afford?”; “Can we still give our children the start in life we had hoped?”; and “How much can and should the bank of mum and dad help out?”

The answers to these questions may be sought in eight distinct phases.

The first phase is Capture.Where do I go to get all the data I need to be able to answer these questions? Use a checklist to make sure you have not missed anything.

The next phase is Categorise. You are trying to organise the data into relevant sections. A structured system has pre-

determined tested questions in each phase. We call these a “playlist.” They are designed to get you thinking beyond the obvious.

For a couple in their early 60s, the playlist is likely to be rather different: “How will this affect our retirement plans, and the level of income that we will have to live

on?”; “Will it mean that we can leave less money to our children?”; “Can we travel as much as we had hoped?”; and “Will I be able to afford a care home if needed?”

All of these carry worry and uncertainty. The first benefit of a good playlist is identifying the scale and location of the issues you face.

Prioritise. This is where a good financial planner can make a difference. They will take you through a decision process to identify your true life goals, and how to achieve common consent within your family.

Plan. Write it down so that others can follow. A very simple analogy is comparing an architect with a builder. Do you see a builder before an architect? The value of an architect is in the matching of the clients dreams to the available budget, by using

their skills and experience to squeeze out every extra step of

value in the situation presented. The builder may have a different skill set, but he or she will have a much greater belief in being able to build the client’s ideal if they are given a detailed plan to follow.

This is the difference between a financial planner (architect) and a wealth manager (builder).

Test. Will the plan deliver under all conditions, even a ‘black swan’ event such as the one we’re living through now? Are we using the right vehicles? Have we maximised all the tax reliefs? Pensions and ISAs are obvious ones, but there are also EISs, VCTs and business reliefs to be utilised if appropriate.

Communicate. This is something that is generally picked up too late by most people. Education and preparation is key to most successful transitions. It really helps if beneficiaries know what they are likely to receive and to prepare for it, whether they are members of your family or charities.

Implement. This is where the financial planner and wealth manager can be differentiated. Some financial planners stop here, preferring to stay within their specialism, some have both roles in their firm and can work in harmony, others can offer both roles, it depends on the complexity and scale involved.

The final phase is Review. A plan and life are fluid and they need to be kept aligned and up-to-date so that when some threat does appear you are well prepared.

Use this enforced ‘free time’ to go through your system or make contact with a financial planner on-line to get yourself financially fit.

There will be a series of articles in What investment over the coming months, to explore different uses of financial planning in more detail.

F or many decades, space has been humanity’s ultimate final frontier.

Back in the 1960s space exploration was a key item on the agendas of the world’s most powerful governments. In fact, the US government used to spend up to 4% of its federal budget on advances in rocketry.

Since then, however, governments have focused on more immediate challenges here on Earth. Yet the last 10 years have seen a resurgence in this area with a new and powerful player coming on the scene: the successful entrepreneur.

The key businessmen making a name for themselves in space exploration are: Jeff Bezos with Blue Origin; Elon Musk with his SpaceX venture; and Richard Branson with Virgin Galactic. However, according to Luke Ward, Baillie Gifford’s resident space enthusiast and deputy manager of Edinburgh Worldwide Investment Trust: “At last count, there were over 100 companies designing rockets to put payloads into space.”

It is that private money flowing into space exploration that could be a game-changer.

The ‘next big thing’At this stage, those wishing to invest in space have limited options. However, many are predicting the final frontier for our civilisation will also be the next big thing in investing.

Clem Chambers, CEO of private investor information website ADVFN and author of 101 Ways to Pick Stock Market Winners, said: “It does not take a genius to work out that space is going to be the next big thing. Earth is a small spot in a huge universe. Unless you can get out of the gravity, well, that is your lot. But once you do, the whole universe is at your feet.”

Morgan Stanley predicts the global space industry could generate revenue of more than $1trn as early as 2040, triple the $350bn it brings in today.

“While the most recent space exploration efforts have been

The final frontier

Space exploration is still a niche investment sector, but a growing number of industry participants believe this could be the next big thing in investment. Is there really potential to make money in space and how do you go about this as an investor? Anna Fedorova investigates

driven by a handful of private companies in recent years, discussions of a sixth branch of the US military – the ‘Space Force’ – along with growing interest from Russia and China, means public-sector investment may also increase in the coming years,” the firm said in a research report.

In fact, in the UK, public investments in space already bring in higher average returns than typical innovation investments. The spaceport being built in Cornwall is expected to provide an £80m benefit to the UK economy – four times the original investment – according to research from local holiday cottages provider Stay in Cornwall.

If the spillover effect is taken into account, the benefit to the UK economy could be to the tune of £240m, while the venture is also expected to create 448 jobs and £200m of gross value added. Together with the other two

spaceports planned in the UK, the benefit to the economy could be up to £469m in the early 2020s.

Private sectorFor private sector companies, the short-term commercial opportunity is primarily in the telecommunications sector, according to BG’s Ward.

“I think the ability to launch satellite constellations is going to be a really interesting source of revenue,” he said.

“Being able to disrupt the existing telecommunication infrastructure around the world, which has traditionally been provided on a local basis, and provide that on a global basis is something quite unique.”

However, space tourism could become a big money-spinner in the future. Additionally, rockets also have a potential application for fast intercontinental travel, according to Michael Ruderman, professor of applied mathematics at the University of Sheffield.

“Imagine, you embark on a rocket in London, it takes off, and in less than an hour you are in Australia. Although the ticket price will be high, such flights will definitely be in demand by business people,” he said.

Meanwhile, according to Morgan Stanley, satellites and space exploration could be the key to addressing the problems of climate change. New technologies in areas such as Earth observation, energy and communications could help solve the key issues.

“Satellite technology and space exploration offer a potential new frontier of opportunities to assess and address climate change and sustainability on a global scale,” said Audrey Choi, Morgan Stanley’s chief sustainability officer.

“These technologies could enable us to have a more powerful global view of climate data and environmental science. Those insights, in turn, can help

enable a deeper integration of sustainability considerations into investment decisions.”

IssuesHowever, as with any nascent investment theme, investors must expect volatility and roadblocks on the way to success.

For example, when it comes to intergalactic space travel, it is difficult to predict how long it will take for this to become reality.

As BG’s Ward pointed out: “If you asked people back in the 1960s whether they thought [they would travel to Mars] there would be an emphatic yes. They thought, that within their lifetime, they would have holidays on the Moon and colonies on Mars.

“But the reality that played out over the subsequent 40 years was very different to that.”

Another concern, according to Kames Capital’s David Pringle, is the lack of regulation in space.

“Space debris and satellites straying off course are becoming a real issue and provide an additional liability/risk that investors need to consider,” he said. “It is, therefore, an area that insurers will inevitably play a bigger role in. Indeed, a recent Bloomberg article highlighted that the risk of a collision for satellites has increased from one in a million to one in 10,000 over the last 20 years.” 

How to invest?Another issue is that it is not that easy to invest directly in these businesses on the open market. For example, both Blue Origin and SpaceX are currently privately owned. Elon Musk in particular has been vocal about his plans to keep SpaceX private for the time being, saying the company’s long-term goal – putting a man on Mars – are misaligned with the quarterly interests of shareholders.

Yet if, like Clem Chambers, you are convinced that space is the next big thing, it would pay to get in early. One option is to buy shares in Virgin Galactic, which shook up the investment universe last October with a listing on the

New York Stock Exchange – the first space tourism company to go public. However, it is worth being aware the stock price has already soared some 60% since IPO.

Meanwhile, investment trusts offer an opportunity to gain exposure to its privately owned competitor, SpaceX – a holding in the Edinburgh Worldwide Investment Trust and the Baillie Gifford US Growth Trust.

Boeing is also trying to build a space division to rival SpaceX, and can be found in open-ended US funds such as Artemis US Select, T. Rowe Price US Blue Chip Equity and T. Rowe Price US Large Cap Growth Equity.

Another US stock that could benefit is Lockheed Martin, whose space division brings in revenues of $10.9bn. The stock is held in Jupiter Global Managed and Jupiter North American Income.

Stuart Cox, manager on both funds, said: “According to Lockheed’s results dated 28 January, the Space division grew sales 14% year-on-year, thus confirming it to be one of the company’s fastest growing businesses.”

In the UK, investors can play the theme through businesses that stand to benefit from advances in space exploration, in areas such as telecoms, defence and technology.

Kames Capital’s Pringle, who runs the Kames UK Equity Absolute Return fund, holds Ultra Electronics, which provides fixed and mobile satellite ground stations and BAE Systems, which supplies highly advanced microprocessors for a number of space applications.

“Although a small part of each company, there is a wider benefit derived from taking technology developed for space applications and applying it to core defence markets where secure connectivity and durability in harsh environments are key. Exposure to space helps to drive growth in more obvious end markets,” Pringle said.

Writing a will or finding one in difficult times requires the same preparation as in calmer and easier ones. Individuals should make use of the help and advice available. Stephanie Spicer writes

Death in a time of coronavirus

Wills>|

I t is not surprising there has been increased focus on will writing in light of

coronavirus. But a challenge in this period of self-isolation and social distancing is how people can get their wills witnessed – two witnesses are needed and ‘wet’ signatures.

The Ministry of Justice is said to be looking into whether witnessing can be done remotely, ie via video link.

Emma Woollard, partner in the Wills, Trusts and Estates team at law firm Prettys, said where individuals are well but are self-isolating at home, her firm has had to be innovative in order to get wills signed and validated. 

The firm always offered an at-home service whereby they go to clients’ houses, if they are unable to come to the office, and this has become the new norm for current signings.  

“Abiding by social distancing rules and ensuring staff and clients are put at no risk, will signings are taking place through house windows, patio doors, either ends of a drive or corridors long enough to allow at least two metres distance.

“Although it is clear that there is no easy solution, this is an example of how the firm

is ensuring clients can get their affairs in order by any means necessary.  

“Therefore, despite the challenges, solutions are

still being found – some reassuring news for individuals or families without wills in place who may be worried that it is too late.”

Prepare, or prepare to panicWoollard said it is important wills are about preparation, rather than panic and lists the following considerations to ensure your will is prepared properly: • Who will you appoint as

an executor to administer your estate?

• If you have young children, who will you appoint as their guardian? And, what provisions will you make for them and what is the age at which you want them to receive their inheritance?

• If you are a cohabiting couple, what provisions will you be making for one another? 

• Are any of the beneficiaries disabled or do they lack capacity? If so, should you consider creating a trust in your will?“This information will allow

you to create a basic will that

can help you get your affairs in order without the process becoming too chaotic at a time already full of adversity,” advised Woollard.

“With all that is going on, it is easy to become consumed by feelings of stress and panic. However, it is reassuring to see how firms are stepping up and making necessary adjustments to cater for their clients’ needs.

“Although it may be some time before we see changes to the law itself, wills can still be written and signed in less conventional ways, allowing those in need to rest assured that, no matter what the future holds, their estates and affairs are safe.”

The national registerThe National Will Register, the Law Society’s endorsed national register, has reported an increase in people searching on the register for wills during the covid-19 crisis. It reports that people are needing to locate a will quickly in advance of a funeral to understand if the deceased’s will contained funeral wishes.

In such cases, they are using the register because they are either self-isolating, do not want to enter the home of others who may have or are suffering with the virus, or enter the home of a victim of the virus to look for evidence of a will.

A spokesperson for The National Will Register said: “The

majority of will searches are usually undertaken by executors prior to probate to ensure they are in possession of the very last will or to locate a will that they were unaware of in order to distribute the estate safely and without risk to them. However, in the current crisis our response times also remain high for those performing a will search for funeral purposes.”

Inheritance tax planning toolIt is of course useful to have a will as a tool in planning the distribution of your estate to minimise the payment of inheritance tax.

Kay Ingram, director of public policy at financial planners LEBC, said: “The assets of those who have no will are distributed in accordance with the law of intestacy which means the state decides for you, according to the relationship of the person to the deceased.

“Many people believe that a spouse or civil partner will automatically inherit everything. This is not true and there is no provision made for cohabitants to inherit anything from a deceased partner.”

Another key consideration, she added, concerns pensions and advises that nomination forms are updated. These can be obtained from the individual’s pension provider.

“Your pensions are not part of your taxable estate,” said Ingram. “The nomination form tells the provider and trustees of the plan who you would wish to inherit your pensions if you die leaving funds invested. The nominations are not binding on the trustees but are usually considered by them.

“If you die before age 75, the transfer of funds to someone else is usually tax free. On death after age 75, the beneficiaries pay income tax on the funds as and when they draw down from them.”

How to contest a willContesting a will can be a delicate process and doing it in the right way means following certain steps. Sangita Manek explains

When someone is facing imminent death it is not unusual for them to make a last minute will – or a ‘deathbed will’. But what do you do if your loved one’s will seems out of character and it becomes clear they have left assets to someone you know they would not have under normal circumstances and especially if the deathbed will contradicts an earlier will? Wills can be challenged but to take this route, it is important to do your homework and gather evidence to support your case.

Lodge a caveat If you believe your loved one could not possibly have been able to make the will that is being presented as their last will, it is important that you lodge a caveat at the probate registry. This prevents an executor of the will from obtaining a grant of probate, which proves the will and gives them the power to administer and distribute the estate.To lodge a caveat, you can either do it yourself, or use a solicitor or another person licensed to provide probate services. In order to do this, you need the full name, date of death and last address of the person who has passed away, as well as your own home address in England or Wales. This caveat will then be valid for six months.

Check the legal formalities You need to ensure from the outset the will complies with legal formalities, and this includes checking whether your loved one had the necessary capacity to make a will. They must have had a certain level of understanding, and this varies according to the complexity of the will itself, the extent of the assets and the claims upon the testator. The test for this understanding a person making a will must:

• Understand the nature of making a will and its effects;

• Understand the extent of the property of which they are disposing;

• Be able to comprehend and appreciate the claims to which they ought to give effect;

• Have no disorder of the mind that perverts their sense of right or prevents the exercise of their natural faculties in disposing of his property by will, and

• Have not been susceptible to ‘undue’ influence.

Determine the facts Wills are often prepared by a solicitor and, if you ask for their file of papers, they should record the checks the solicitor took to ensure your loved one had the mental capacity to make a will. It is good practice for a solicitor to keep detailed notes of the information given to them by the person making the will, and the reasons behind why they have made it, including gifts they may have under it. These notes will be telling about your loved one’s mindset at the time the will was made. If earlier wills were made and the last is dramatically different to these without good reason, it could indicate lack of capacity. This will be strong evidence for you to contest the last will written.

Seek back up In the case of elderly or infirm testators, it is worth checking with their GP or consultant to ensure they would have had the right capacity to make a will. Alternatively, you may want to try and access your loved one’s medical records, as they could shed light on mental health issues or disclose medication they were on that may have impacted their capacity to understand the implications of making a will. If there are people who had regular contact with the deceased, including neighbours and carers, they may be able to give direct evidence of conversations they had. This may shed light on things they said and couldn’t do towards the end of their life that may indicate their state of mind. When a person makes a will, it is vital they are of “sound mind, memory and understanding”. Having clear information on the mental and physical health of the individual can support your contest. When contesting a will on these grounds, it must be shown that at the time, they did not have the capacity to make a will.

When all else fails If it is clear there are no grounds for challenging the will but you have been left out of it unexpectedly, you may have the right to make a claim under the Inheritance (Provision for Family and Dependants) Act 1975. Certain categories of people, including family members and dependants, can apply to the court for provision to be made for them if they have been left out of their loved one’s will, or because they died without making a will.

Shall we start speaking plainly? Let me begin. We are in the ****. There,

I said it. Why on Earth we are still

hearing such guff as “we think we may see a recession in Q2” and “our view is that interest rates are going to remain lower for longer”?

In the words of the late Sid James: “Get away!”

Some of the commentators on certain financial TV channels seem afflicted by ‘corporatespeak’ and give the impression that they have zero confidence in any of the ideas of how to deal with what needs dealing with.

So, let us leave such ‘corporatespeak’ to one side and speak openly and honestly.

Time to face the facts…Back in July 2018 I asked the question “Is The Bubble In Complacency Still Inflating?”

We now know the answer. It has been not only popped,

it has been well and truly trampled underfoot.

We are now all taking part in a real live social, psychological and economic experiment, the like of which has never been experienced before.

Facing facts, what we are seeing today is not an economic slowdown, it is a cessation of normal everyday life. So it is of little use looking at previous recessions and hoping that the Fed, the Bank of England or any other Central Bank can ride to the rescue this time. They cannot. They can help for sure, but their armoury, depleted extensively since 2008, is not sufficient to bail us out this time.

So it looks like governments need to step up.

(Rumour has it that this sentence inspired Edvard Munch to paint The Scream.)

The reality is that covid-19 is in control of what happens next. Until cases begin to drop, economies will continue to be decimated. Bear in mind, early forecasts were that

Just how bad can it get?

Andrew Merricks argues that the scale of the damage caused by the coronavirus lockdown is not fully appreciated, but that does not mean that investors cannot start planning for a more prosperous future

Outlook>|

1.4 billion people could be infected worldwide. With a 2% mortality rate, this would lead to 20 million deaths.

At the time this was written, we were at 365,000 confirmed cases and over 15,000 deaths. By the time you read this who knows what the numbers will be?

Those forecasting a “V” shaped recovery need to have a lie down.

Sadly, a lot of companies that exist today will not exist in a few months’ time, and we are not just talking about small to medium-sized ones either.

Despite the UK government’s best efforts in supporting workers, large scale unemployment is virtually assured. An army of self-employed and contractors will be looking for work as well.

Apart from on toilet rolls and tins of tomatoes, personal spending is going to fall off a cliff.

It is probably more accurate to look at previous charts from 1929 and the Second World War than anything more recent to try to anticipate what this means (see chart above).

If we follow this trajectory we will have a false rally followed by further decline. Is it all over for investors then? We think not.

What to invest in When we have seen periods of wealth destruction previously, cash has been a crucial asset to hold. It not only helps greatly in capital preservation, it also allows you the opportunity to take part in any subsequent rally. And there will be a subsequent rally. The question is when, and it is crucial not to get sucked back in too early (see chart above).

It is worth bearing in mind that the bottom of a bear market, by definition, has to be the point of maximum bearishness. I do not think we are there yet, and possibly not even close. However, from that point, the news does not actually have to be good, it just has to be less

bad than what has already been discounted in prices.

This is very important. Consider the 20 million figure mentioned earlier. It is a number that is impossible to comprehend in today’s context, but if numbers start rising rapidly in the weeks to come it will not seem so far-fetched. But if those figures start to slow, the bad news becomes less bad and an end comes into sight. At that point, the bottom may have been reached.

And when the bottom is reached, as with previous periods of wealth destruction, a long prosperous period of recovery and growth ensues.

If we think of the unprecedented stimulus that has been added to the mix already, this recovery could be strong indeed. But what will do well?

The 8AM Focussed Fund has always been a bit different from most, being actively managed across multiple asset classes. We try to invest in what the world wants and needs.

When this is over, will the world still need protection from cyber criminals? We think yes, so we invest in a cybersecurity ETF.

Robots do not go sick and do not need to work flexible hours. Will this seen to be an advantage after the crisis or a hindrance? We think the former, so we invest in a robotics ETF.

Will the internet be seen as

even more important than it was before we were all confined to our homes? We think that it will be a major winner here and abroad, so we invest in an emerging market e-commerce ETF.

Will people around the world simply sit staring at the walls whilst in isolation, particularly the younger age group? We think not, so we invest in a gaming and e-sports ETF.

Will artificial intelligence and automation be seen as being more important or less after we emerge from this? Again, we think the former, so we invest in an AI and automation fund.

And so on. We do not follow traditional asset allocation models and we feel confident that our approach is the correct one for the months ahead. Old models are letting investors down. Risk assessment modelling will be rewritten.

The last time that our fund was first quartile was in 2017 when thematic investment was finding its feet. We strongly believe that this will be repeated as we emerge from the debris of the ‘Corona Crash’.

We cannot say when this will be, but when it comes we think that you will need to look at things very differently from how they were viewed just three short months ago.

Andrew Merricks is the co-fund manager of the 8AM Focussed fund.

W hile investor focus is currently on what governments and the

medical authorities are doing to combat covid-19, the banking sector is also coming to the fore.

As an investment sector, financials, which encompasses everything from banks to insurers and credit card lenders, is diverse and global but has been largely out of favour since the Global Financial Crisis of 2008.

There is only one UK-based investment trust where investors can get exposure to the global financials sector and that is the Polar Capital Financials Trust, which began in July 2013.

The trust has very limited exposure to UK financial companies, in particular high street banks, so could easily compliment any individual holdings investors might have in the likes of Lloyds or RBS.

The trust is jointly managed by Nick Brind and John Yakas, as part of a team with over 100 years’ experience.

Brind points to the size of the financial sector as part of the opportunity – it accounts for over 17% of the value of global markets – and yet is under-owned by investors in the UK.

When he and I met a month ago he pointed to the “deep value” in the sector, which since our meeting has become greater because of the sell-off caused by covid-19.

“So why should investors consider the sector?” I asked Brind.

“FOMO”, he said. “Fear of missing out.

“The sector on a global basis has never been so unloved and so cheap, and we would argue that over time through the next economic cycle there could be

a very attractive opportunity to make money out of many of these companies.

“If you take the banks, many of them are much stronger financially than they were in the immediate aftermath of the Global Financial Crisis, and yet their share prices do not reflect this.”

ContinuityWhen the trust launched it was initially for a fixed seven-year period which was due to end this May, but key shareholders have indicated they would like to continue.

So, subject to all shareholders having a vote, the trust will officially continue for another five years, and a few changes will be made which arguably

makes the trust more attractive for investors.

The fixed life of seven years will move to five yearly periods and will include a policy to buy-back shares to keep the discount at no wider than 5%.

The annual management charge will move from 0.85% to 0.70% on the trust’s NAV, and the performance fee will only be charged if the trust outperforms the benchmark by at least 1.50%.

The trust is also switching to a more sensible benchmark which only has limited real estate investments in it but has a higher exposure to emerging markets.

The trust has six broad investment themes which it believes will provide good opportunities for the next decade.These include banks which have lagged the markets ever since the Lehman’s crisis; emerging markets where the growth in financial services matches the steady rise in personal wealth in these nations; and non-life insurance and specialist underwriting companies.

For investors looking for a decent income the trust has a dividend yield of 2.9% and is committed to a ‘progressive dividend policy.’

Since launch the trust has achieved a 10% pa total return – that is a combination of share price rise and dividends – which is very good given the backdrop.

With the current sell-off in the markets the shares look very cheap, particularly as measured by the value of the underlying portfolio, so now could be a good chance to buy-in before the trust adds in the discount mechanism when the continuation trust starts later in the year. WI

“If you take the banks, many of them are much stronger financially than they were in the immediate aftermath of the Global Financial Crisis, and yet their share prices

do not reflect this”Nick Brind, Polar Capital

Financial Crisis (GFC). However since the market turmoil caused by the onset of the coronavirus, prices have fallen substantially and discounts have widened dramatically.

The price of PIN peaked at £25 on 19 February with the discount showing 9.7%. The recent price low on the 19 March was £13.34 and the discount 54%.

This is not surprising as during periods of financial stress investors worry about the valuations of private equity companies given their use of leverage and the potential for businesses to fail. However LPEs are generally in a much better position than they were over the GFC in terms of leverage and uncovered commitments.

At the end of February PIN had no leverage at the fund level and actually held 9% of assets in cash. Outstanding commitments were relatively low at 32% of assets or 23% net of cash. If commitments are drawn

down faster than expected over the next few months PIN can use a £179m loan facility it has in place for these eventualities.

The portfolio of PIN will not be immune from write downs to the NAV and these lag the share price as the underlying investments are only valued monthly or quarterly. However the portfolio has a high weighting to technology and healthcare and investments are generally valued on a conservative basis. The NAV may not suffer quite as much as the share price suggests.

Much has been written, especially post Woodford, about the suitability of open-ended funds for illiquid investments. It is generally accepted that investment trusts, with their closed-end structure, allow managers to take long-term positions in illiquid companies without the fear of fund redemptions forcing sales of these investments at distressed prices.

Investment trusts that invest in unlisted companies or funds of unlisted companies, commonly called listed private equity (LPE) vehicles are a classic example. They give private individuals a reasonably liquid way to access an asset class usually reserved for institutions.

PerformancePantheon International (PIN) is one of the largest and oldest of the LPEs with net assets of approximately £1.5bn and is a member of the FTSE 250 index.

The manager, Pantheon, is one of the leading private equity houses with over $4bn of assets under management on behalf of 600 clients.

Since inception in 1987, PIN has delivered an annualised growth in NAV of 11.7% compared to 7.8% for the MSCI World Index (in £ terms) and 7.4% for the FTSE All Share Index. Over 10 years the NAV return increases to 13.2% per annum against 11.1% for the MSCI World and 6.8% for the FTSE All Share.

Portfolio constructionThe private equity market is now worth over $4trn globally but many of the best managers

are inaccessible to individual investors. PIN predominantly invests in funds managed by these specialists. The investments can be primary. where PIN invests on launch; or secondary, where PIN acquires a stake in an existing fund from another investor.

PIN also makes co-investments where it invests directly alongside a private equity manager. At the end of February the asset split between primaries, secondaries and co-investments was 30%, 36% and 34%, respectively.

PIN aims to build a well balanced portfolio and to maximise capital growth. The maturity profile of the assets is managed so the portfolio remains naturally cash generative on a sustainable basis.

As portfolio companies are sold by the underlying PE funds, PIN’s share of the cash generated is deployed into existing commitments made to other funds or into new investment opportunities. PIN’s policy is to adopt a global investment approach.

The latest fact sheet shows 54% of assets were US based, 29% in Europe, 10% in Asia/Emerging Markets and 7% in Global funds with no specific geographic mandate. Investment risk is also mitigated through diversification of the portfolio by sector, investment stage and fund vintage.

OutlookAfter the UK general election late last year, the discounts of most LPEs to their NAVs narrowed considerably from their averages post the Global

Huge inefficiencies in delivering power to users and an overreliance on oil and gas means there is a large and growing market for companies involved in making energy generation and supply cleaner and more efficient. This fund has been benefitting from this trend

VT Gravis Clean Energy Income was launched in 2017 and is run by William Argent, who has been investing in the listed infrastructure sector since 2006.

The aim of the fund is to deliver a regular income of around 4.5% pa (after charges) as well as growing and preserving investors’ capital throughout market cycles.

The manager endeavours to do this by investing in a blend of global listed securities including: • yieldco equities;• investment companies; • normal equities.

The core belief when investing in this area is that electricity from clean sources is a significant contributor to the world’s growing need for increased power.

Income streams generated in this area, in the form of subsidy payments and revenue from power sales, tend to be reliable and predictable.

Moreover, there is potential for capital growth because demand in the sector is growing – especially stemming from those integrating ESG, sustainability and climate change into their investment considerations.

Argent seeks to identify companies with mature technologies and established track records, attractive long-term dependable cash flows and

those that are income generative and profitable.

Portfolio positioning and performanceThe resulting portfolio is one concentrated in nature, with

around 30 holdings, providing exposure to around 900 separate

operational renewable energy assets.

Around 84.5% of the fund is invested in companies owning operational renewable energy assets, primarily wind, solar and hydro projects.

As a result, these tend to be medium to long-dated and either subsidised or fixed price, meaning that cash flow predictability is increased whilst volatility is reduced.

Furthermore, around 25% of the portfolio exhibits inflation protection.

The fund was in the top 10% of funds for both 2018 and 2019, highlighting both the resilient, defensive qualities as well as the potential for growth the fund has.

Investors must of course remember past performance is not an indication of future performance.

The relatively low levels of risk used means the risk-adjusted returns for the fund are very strong. In addition, the fund has a reasonably low sensitivity to market returns, making it a useful tool within a portfolio to improve diversification, helping to reduce overall portfolio risk.

This has all been achieved with one of the highest yields in the sector, and at a reasonable cost – an added bonus for investors.

As well as being a fund commentator, Rosser also comments across equities and other asset classes.

Reasons to buy• Provides exposure to companies engaged in the provision, storage, supply and consumption of clean energy.• Has one of the highest yields in the sector, yet has also delivered very strong returns with relatively low levels of risk.• The fund has been awarded a 4 star rating by 3D investing, meaning it is likely to have a high social impact with low ethical concerns.• The nature of the underlying investments means the fund should provide good diversification benefits as well as some inflation protection for investors.

Things to be wary of• Investors should be aware that major renewable energy indices and similar active strategies suffered huge losses during and after the Global Financial Crisis.• The fund may have some exposure to companies involved in natural gas extraction or processing, which could go against some individual’s ESG considerations.• The fund does not have a long track record to make inferences from, although past performance should not be used as a guide for future performance.

Pictet-Global Environmental Opportunities fundIndependent financial journalist Stephanie Spicer examines an ethical fund utilising a scientific framework in order to fight the scourge of ‘greenwashing’

The Pictet-Global Environmental Opportunities fund aims to address the problem investors have of assessing companies with a good environmental footprint and those ‘greenwashing’.

It deploys a scientific, rule-based framework to measure the environmental footprint of each of the 100-plus industries that make up the global economy. It looks at something called the Planetary Boundaries framework, developed by scientists at the Stockholm Resilience Centre. It quantifies a set of boundaries, which, if breached, would endanger the environmental conditions that have been instrumental to human prosperity over thousands of years.

The fund managers use this framework to pinpoint industries with the smallest environmental footprint.

These industries include renewable energy, energy efficiency, sustainable agriculture and forestry, waste management, water supply and pollution control.

The fund has returned 11.34% since inception in Q3 2014 beating its benchmark MSCI ACWI index by 3.62%.

Pictet estimates environmental solutions is a US $2.5trn industry which can grow at 6-7% pa. The fund is overweight North American and European large cap stocks but with a 20% proportion invested in mid-caps and 23%

in emerging markets. Pictet Asset Management

has been investing in thematic equities for 25 years – its belief is that investing in environmental opportunities can boost returns over the long-term, improve diversification and also offer the benefit of some defensive characteristics during short-term market volatility.

I would rate it four out of five.

Morgan Stanley Developing Opportunity fundDarius McDermott, managing director, Chelsea Financial Services, looks at a fund focused on undervalued, high quality companies in developing markets

Morgan Stanley Investment Management has launched an emerging markets fund under the management of Kristian Heugh and the global opportunity team.

The Developing Opportunity fund is a high conviction portfolio, which specifically targets undervalued, high quality companies located or operating in developing market countries.

The stock selection process focuses on companies with sustainable competitive advantages and long-term growth that creates value. The fund has the freedom to invest in any sector and companies of any size.

The global opportunity team has a proven track record of running money, and also manages the successful Morgan Stanley Global Opportunity fund, which has comfortably outperformed the Investment Association Global sector peer group in the past five years, returning 127%*, compared with 32%* for the average global equity fund. While this fund sits in the emerging markets arena, the fact that it is backed by the successful global opportunity team is a real boon

The fund has an annual management charge of 0.8% with no minimum investment.

I give it four out of five stars.

is the unprecedented support for both sectors in the form of the government’s emergency programmes. So investor panic has quickly given way to greed and the ‘fear of missing out’, as witnessed by the impressive rally from the March low.

Stock markets seem to be betting on this tidal wave of cash saving the day, but we should also remember that big counter-trend rallies are common features of bear markets. So we still need to tread very carefully – especially amongst our small-cap stocks.

Several companies have been quick out of the blocks to raise fresh equity funds and give themselves more breathing room. This is a sensible strategy and at this stage our focus should be on balance sheet strength and the preservation of cash flows. The markets might have moved very quickly, but it is too early to look for big winners amongst more challenged value stocks. Their time will come.

Diversified Gas & OilMany companies are passing their dividend, but Diversified Gas and Oil (AIM: DGOC) is continuing with its quarterly payouts which add up to a yield of 12%. That is despite the collapse in the oil price and US natural gas prices falling a third from last autumn’s level.

Last year saw a 53% cash operating margin and a 24% free cash flow yield, which supported a 24% dividend increase, debt reduction, and a buy-back programme. The good news is that 90% of this year’s production is hedged at higher levels than last year’s average realised gas price, with 66% of 2021 production similarly hedged. The two following years are 27% and 24% covered.

This focus on risk management and protecting cash flows means the dividend looks relatively secure. DGOC’s competitors in non-conventional (fracked) gas production tend to have higher operating costs and capex requirements, their distress should ultimately result in better gas prices.

Kape TechnologiesKape Technologies (AIM: KAPE) should be immune from covid-19: as a supplier of computer security and internet privacy software its apps will likely be regarded as a necessary utility by their 2.3 million users.

Trading momentum is strong with a 42% increase in paying subscribers over the course of 2019, excluding the acquisition of Private Internet (PI) which came in at the end of the year.

Cost savings of around $4m are expected from this deal and CEO Ido Erlichman told us the integration was on track. The PI deal has taken Kape into a $32m net debt position but this is supported by recurring subscription revenues.

The debt facility has headroom to fund further acquisitions and Erlichman says he has a ‘significant pipeline of targets’ but that the priority is to focus on integrating PI. The current year p/e is 15x looks very reasonable.

Smaller companies are always hit harder in bear markets and AIM fell 40% over the four week period to March 18th. The next three weeks up to Easter saw a 26% rebound, leaving a net fall of 24% from the February high. Looking at the stock market’s reaction to the covid-19 pandemic it is very tempting to see 1987 as the best template: a dramatic collapse over a matter of days, with the low point reached in short order. Back in 1987 we saw a steady recovery which recaptured the all-time-high in under two years.

But there was no economic fallout from the ’87 crash, at least in the near term. Whereas today, we know there is a drastic drop in economic output as a result of covid-19, which will have inevitable consequences for consumers and companies. However what is also different this time

Lenin’s quote: “There are decades where nothing happens; and there are weeks when decades happen,” seems very apt at the moment.

At the time of writing (1 April 2020), I am working from home, on lockdown, talking about the fastest ever fall in company shares prices in history. Quite a change from just six weeks ago, when I was talking about the longest stock market bull run in history – over a glass of wine in the pub, with my colleagues.

We are living in unprecedented times, with governments around the world taking steps not seen since World War II to meet the growing threat of the coronavirus.

Businesses have also been playing their part, with a number retooling in a bid to help the response to the outbreak. Amidst all the gloomy headlines, there are companies with positive stories to tell. Here are four.

Inditex – GAM Star Continental European fundInditex is a Spanish multinational clothing company. Having started out as a modest workshop making dresses and quilt dressing gowns in 1963, Inditex is now tone of the biggest fashion groups in the world. It owns brands such as Zara and is a 3.1% holding in the GAM Star Continental European fund*.

The firm has made its factories and logistics teams available to the Spanish government to donate much-needed masks for patients and medical workers. It is also trying to source medical grade fabric for hospital gowns and is investigating the possibility of switching some textile manufacturing capacity over

to the production of health materials.

Airbus SE – Fidelity Global Special Situations fundA consortium of over 20 companies, from industrial, technology and engineering sectors, named Ventilator Challenge UK, is also playing its part in the pandemic.

It has come together to produce medical ventilators and has already received formal orders from the UK government in excess of 10,000 units and is accelerating production.

The companies involved – including Airbus and Microsoft - have taken many of their people from key company projects to serve the national need.

Both companies are top ten holdings in the Fidelity Global Special Situations fund†.

LVMH – BlackRock European Dynamic fundMoët Hennessy – Louis Vuitton (LVMH), known more for its champagnes and luxury goods, has also joined the effort by using its perfume production lines to start making hand

sanitiser to protect people against the coronavirus outbreak.

The firm said it would manufacture the disinfectant gel using the production lines of its perfume and cosmetic gels, given it already has the three main ingredients – purified water, ethanol and glycerine - to hand. These are then being made available to the French health authorities free of charge.

The firm is the top holding in the BlackRock European Dynamic fund (5.8%)†.

Pernod Ricard – Threadneedle European Select fundAlcoholic beverage company Pernod Ricard has also switched production to focus on hand sanitisers. The move was kicked off by its US business arm, in response to the Trump administration’s call to action against the covid-19 outbreak. The firm is producing sanitisers at all manufacturing sites and distilleries in the US.

Its subsidiaries worldwide are also contributing to local efforts to fight the pandemic. Pernod Ricard India Foundation, for example, is supplying truck drivers with hand sanitisers and masks.

The company is a top 10 holding in the Threadneedle European Select fund (4.2%)†.

The first wave of investing was about the rise and growth of discretionary funds. In the 1970s charismatic investors like Warren Buffett and George Soros used their innate human decision making and analytical abilities to find new opportunities and maintain a competitive edge in the market. Over time, the proliferation of information technologies like the internet closed this gap. Opportunities and information have become more readily available and standardised. With everyone working from a similar base set of information and assumptions, there soon came the need for investors to develop a different kind of competitive edge.

This scenario developed into the second wave of investing in the early 2000s. Funds like Renaissance Technologies and WorldQuant brought a great degree of mathematical rigor to investing and trading by hiring ‘quants’. These quants, or quantitative analysts, leveraged new statistical models and computer algorithms to build systematic strategies that generate consistent alphas (ie, market advantages) across several markets and financial instruments.

Flash forward to today, and algorithmic trading is no longer the sole turf of institutional traders, brokers and big fund houses. Mid-size institutional investors and retail participants are also warming up to the idea with many discount brokerages and start-ups offering them algo trading platforms. So does algorithmic trading really offer any major advantages to investors? Or is it best left to the high frequency traders with co-located servers and complex trading models? Let us take a closer look.

What is algo trading? It is nothing more than the process of using computers to continuously follow a specific set of defined instructions

for placing orders, booking profits or taking losses and exiting. Hence, human intervention is limited to defining the trading rules and is minimal with respect to actual execution and tracking. To arrive at the set of rules that work for a particular strategy theme investors are generally expected to ‘back-test’ the system, which involves simulating the working of a particular trading system (along with its associated rules) under historical market conditions.

The mechanics of algo tradingConsider the extremely simple golden cross system – buy a stock when the 50 day moving average of price crosses over the 200 day moving average, close positions of the reverse cross. A quick back-test of the system on SPX from 1970 onwards shows that golden cross systems have been profitable 79% of the time and produce phenomenal returns. So, by coding in the above two simple instructions, an investor can build a program that tracks share prices including moving average indicators

and place buy and sell orders whenever the rules are met. There is no need for the investor to monitor the live prices or graphs or even place orders – the system can perform the investor’s work quietly and efficiently.

The advantages of algo trading Systematic and robust.

The main advantage of algorithmic trading is that it enables the user to convert an ‘idea’ about a trading strategy to a robust set of un-ambiguous rules that can be verified for effectiveness under a wide variety of instruments and historical market conditions. The very exercise brings about a systematic and structured approach to trading by removing human emotion and irrationality from the trading exercise.

Algorithmic traders are less susceptible to fear and greed – ‘gut

feeling’ and ‘hot tips’ can be safely avoided when you know you have a trading system that can mechanically follow hard rules and still generate returns over long periods of time.

Speed. Trading with algorithms has the advantage of scanning and executing on multiple indicators at a speed that no human could do. Since trades can be analysed and executed faster, more opportunities are available at better prices.

Precision. Precision is essential in any form of trading – all traders and investors always want to enter a trade at the ‘right’ price. This is better achieved in algo trading. Utilising computers in trading, you can diminish a few errors that may occur when you perform the same action manually. It encourages you to expel any mistakes prior to trading in the live market.

Flexibility and diversification. The ability to trade markets via computers that happily crunch numbers round the clock and never take a coffee break opens up a world of possibilities for the investor. He or she can trade instruments that were hereto difficult to trade or impossible to execute manually. In fact he or she can also design an algo strategy to act as a hedge against their specific current-holding portfolio and hence reduce overall risk. The possibilities are endless. Accessibility. Over the last five years, a host of platforms like tradingview.com have come into existence. These platforms come with a bunch of preexisting features and radically reduce the time and effort needed to back-test, optimise and automate a trading system. Such platforms have leveled the playing field significantly and provide the opportunity to medium and smaller market participants to jump on the algo bandwagon.

The CONSCIENTIOUS

INVESTOR

Patrick Thomas | Canaccord Genuity Wealth Management

As if you needed any more proof that ESG is more than just a passing fad, it seems that in the chaos of the last few weeks where markets have back-flipped, tumbled, soared, dropped and bounced back again, ESG fund performance has been doing better than its non-ESG equivalents.

In the Morningstar world, ESG funds are not in a category of their own, ESG funds are placed in standard categories – for example, the US Large Cap Equity Index – so will be ranked alongside conventional funds that invest in the same parts of the market. This makes it really easy to see how their performance compares alongside non-ESG funds.

Looking back over the last year – in the first quarter, the returns of 70% of ESG equity funds ranked in the top halves of their categories and 44% were ranked in their category’s best quartile. By contrast, only 11% of ESG equity funds finished in their category’s worst quartile. In a nutshell, this tells us that overall, the performance of ESG funds is considerably better than non-ESG funds.

The same is true in the world of passive funds. We compared 26 ESG index funds with 26 conventional index funds – over the last month, 24 of the 26 ESG index funds outperformed the conventional index funds, and all 26 ESG funds outperformed their non-ESG equivalents for the year to date to March.

Rising to the challengeSo why is this the case? And why might ESG be the phoenix from the flames of this particular market crash? Well, it is for a number of reasons. As you would expect, most ESG funds are underweight in oil and ‘dirty’ cyclicals. And we all know what’s happened to the oil price in the last month or two. ESG funds are also overweight in so-called ‘quality’ companies (defined as those that have strong cash flows, are consistently profitable and not over-leveraged). ESG funds also tend to be overweight in healthcare and there is often a focus on growth companies which have long-term durability.

ESG also attracts some very talented fund managers, so we have to factor good stock picking capabilities into the mix.

While ESG is proving its mettle in this crisis, our new norm is also shepherding in some different ways of living, many of which play to ESG themes. The most obvious one is home working. Although people have been working from home for years, this pandemic containment exercise has rapidly accelerated companies’ facilitation of home working. The biggest winner from this trend is technology. I mean, what would we do without cloud computing? It is the reason why massive organisations have been able to mobilise their staff to work from home in a very short space of time.

For investors, there are different ways to access this theme – Allianz Technology Trust and Polar Technology Trust are both now trading at discounts compared to their history and have exposure to the cloud theme and there is First Trust Cloud Computing ETF too.

With increased home working comes increasing online threats. Cyber criminals are looking for new opportunities to exploit our new norm and cybersecurity solutions are going to be key in helping us protect ourselves. If investors are interested in the issue of cybersecurity and the protection it

can give to society, they could take a look at L&G’s Cyber Security ETF, iShares’ Cybersecurity and Tech

ETF and Pictet, which has an active fund focused on cyber security.

The other big winner is education technology. From schools and

universities, to tuition companies and night classes, educational

establishments of all shapes and sizes are scrambling to keep their students

engaged and plugged into their courses. And they are using online educational tools to allow them to

do this. As an investor, if education is something you are looking

at, then CPR Invest Education is one fund to access this theme, as is Baillie Gifford Positive

Change. It goes without saying that

all eyes are on the healthcare sector. Vaccine development, tests, ventilator production and

the manufacturing of protective clothing for healthcare staff – healthcare is the sector which will provide the solution to the crisis we are all in. For investors interested in this theme, funds such as BB Healthcare and Candriam Oncology Impact are worth looking at.

Bringing out the bestIt is not just about investing of course. This whole crisis has brought communities together; it has prompted legions of volunteers to help the cause. And the corporate sector has pulled together too – we have seen Formula One teams producing ventilators, while Gap, Burberry and Carharrt manufacture personal protective equipment.

The worst of times brings out the best in people; and the best in companies, too. Long may that continue.

HOW TO RE-BUILD

YOUR WEALTH

Most investors will be looking at the value of their hard-earned

wealth and savings being severely depleted by the current covid-19 market sell offs and the likely long-term economic challenges that are going to result.

So how do we all try and rebuild the value of our investments, which if we went back to the beginning of 2020 looked largely very healthy after a good year in 2019 for markets?

There are some very basic things to remember: do not panic and do not think predictions of dire economic consequences necessarily reflect what the stock markets will do.

Readers will probably be familiar with the view that stock markets fall on a wall of worry and climb on a wall of hope; and equally the link between economies and stock markets

is not as simple as some would claim.

There is no doubt the increase in unemployment and the collapse of businesses will be severe, particularly for those involved, but this comes against a backdrop of regular high numbers of people in work in the UK and US, and unemployment lows not seen since the 1960s in some cases.

Equally markets fell when it was realised the virus was not going to be confined just to Asia, as SARS had been early in the century, and would severely impact Europe and North America, but with the virus reaching peaks and beginning to stabilise, those same markets are showing signs of recovery.

Over the next few pages we provide, we hope, a lot of advice on how to rebuild the value of investments which I hope will be of value and interest.

T he late Sir John Templeton, founder of the eponymous fund

management group, used a series of maxims he had coined to determine the way in which his investment managers should operate. One of these was: “‘This time is different’ are amongst the most costly four words in market history.”

With markets reeling as a consequence of the coronavirus pandemic – or more correctly, because of the measures taken to contain its spread – it is all too easy to believe that this time is truly different and without precedence. Such an attitude is likely to prove very costly in the longer term.

The end was nighIn the half century plus that I have worked in the investment industry I have lived through many bear markets. All were uncomfortable. Most were unexpected and for some it felt as though the end of the world was nigh as we approached the bottom of the trough.

Perhaps the most dramatic, certainly in terms of scale, was the 1973/4 market crash which saw shares on the London Stock Exchange lose 70% of their value, peak to trough.

The circumstances behind this particular bear market were also worrying, to say the least.

In 1973, the Yom Kippur war between Israel and the Arab states resulted in a quadrupling of the price of oil.

I was 10 years into my career and, having spent time on the floor of the Stock Exchange and a brief period servicing institutional clients, I was settling into the role of looking after private clients which became my main focus through much of my working life.

Petrol rationing coupons were issued, though in the end they were never used.

Unfortunately, this disruption coincided with the miners’ strike and the three-day week when electricity supplies were severely curtailed.

Edward Heath, leader of the Conservative government, decided to go to the country in early 1974 on the platform of “Who runs Britain?”.

It turned out not to be him. A minority Labour government came to power, supported by the Liberal party, and a second election was held later that year which gave prime minister Harold Wilson a slim overall majority.

It also ushered in a period of rampant inflation.

As if this was not enough, a banking crisis developed which saw several secondary banks go to the wall.

By the end of 1974 there were fears that even the mainstream high street banks may not survive.

As if on cue, a major oil company collapsed at the very beginning of 1975.

It was the most unlikely of triggers, but by the end of the first quarter of that year, shares in London had more than doubled in value and the most savage bear market in my lifetime was consigned to history.

The fact that inflation shot up to 25%, with interest rates soaring also, forcing the government to go cap in hand to the IMF is another story altogether.

Big bang, big crashBy 1987 I was working for the leading stockbroker, James Capel, which had just been taken over by HSBC. The previous year had seen the huge shake up of City practices which had become known as the “Big Bang”.

Shares had risen significantly following the measures introduced and many long-established City firms had been taken over by foreign financial institutions.

It was not to last, though. In the early hours of Friday 16 October, a hurricane swept through south east England, disrupting transport and power supplies. As a direct result the London Stock Exchange failed to open that day as insufficient people had made it to their desks to allow an orderly market to function.

Unfortunately, shares on Wall Street opened sharply lower when trading commenced on Friday afternoon, London time. On Monday a bloodbath ensued, made all the worse by further falls on US markets when trading commenced there.

By the close of business, we had suffered a fall in London

The recent pandemic gripping the markets is nothing new to JM Finn’s consultant Brian Tora, who puts his experience of more than 50 years working in wealth management to good use, turning the clock back to highlight parallels with past crashes, and suggesting a recovery could come sooner and be quicker than the bears would have you think

to minimise the consequences, both in health and economic terms.

Already there are signs that the peak has passed in China, Singapore and probably South Korea too.

In Italy, which has assumed the unwelcome mantle of being at the core of the pandemic, there is some hope that the peak will be reached soon. And there have even been some positive side effects of the action taken, with pollution levels falling in a number of places. We will undoubtedly find some good emerging from the disruption that has been caused.

As investors, we know most of all that we cannot be certain how long this unfortunate state

of affairs will continue, nor yet ascertain the extent of the damage wrought. But we will come out at the other side and markets will recover in due course.

It is difficult to take a positive stance when so much uncertainty exists, but I take comfort from another of Sir John Templeton’s maxims: “Bull markets are born on pessimism, grow on scepticism, mature on optimism and die on euphoria – the time of maximum pessimism is the best time to buy”.

There is plenty of pessimism around right now.

that took the market into bear territory.

Traders were shell shocked. The market in Hong Kong was forced to close as it became clear that part of the cause of this massive loss in value was a growing disconnect between the cash and derivatives markets, which had been assuming increasing importance as ever more sophisticated instruments were introduced.

But we survived, even if the recovery took a little while. It did have some unfortunate consequences, though, with chancellor of the exchequer, Nigel Lawson, easing monetary policy to head off a perceived economic shock which in the end did not materialise.

The death of capitalismThe falls we have seen in markets recently have certainly been severe, but were nothing like as bad as those we experienced on Black Monday, as 19 October 1987 became known, and in the days immediately following.

There have, of course, been other bear markets.

In 2000 we had the bursting of the so-called TMT bubble. Technology, media and telecommunications stocks had been ramped up massively as the old millennium drew to a close, with plenty of easy money to finance purchases made available by central banks in an effort to head off financial disruption caused by the millennium bug.

In 2008 the collapse of Lehman Brothers triggered a swift bear market as investors pondered whether the global banking system could remain intact.

There were even doubts expressed as to whether capitalism could survive.

That the economic disruption caused by this pandemic will be significant is not in doubt. But we have seen an unprecedented level of cooperation between governments and central banks around the world as they seek

W e have seen the sharpest falls in history in recent

months as global stock markets moved into bear territory – a grisly fall from peak of more than 20%, in just three weeks.

The covid-19 pandemic blindsided the investment community as nearly half the world’s population has been in lockdown and large swathes of industries, notably in the leisure and tourist sectors, were forced to close their doors.

As long term investment managers, we have experience of market crashes. In situations such as this, the first thing we try to do is stay calm and have faith in the quality of the companies we hold, checking if there are any where we believe the picture might have changed so materially that they could even go out of business.

Second, we look to sell those holdings where the price has held up but where we believe a further wave of selling could put pressure on the price, in effect playing a catch up of sorts.

After this, we can then sit back with the relative comfort of holding some extra cash while we await opportunities to invest in companies raising money by selling new shares. In the main these will be businesses who are simply bolstering their balance sheets enough to see them through the crisis, and perhaps adding some further capital to take advantage of the recovery when it arrives, by taking market share from weaker competitors or even acquiring them at rock bottom prices.

This is where we have seen the most attractive opportunities in the early stages of this current recession.

Good examples are retailers such as WH Smith, ASOS, Hotel Chocolat and travel concessions operator SSP, who have all tapped investors by issuing new shares, cognizant that whilst they are all are strong, market leading businesses, the unknown length of the shutdown, could still potentially put their companies at risk.

Put your faith in quality

In all these cases, management have put themselves firmly on the front foot by raising money early in the downturn, providing investors with confidence the companies have the financial resources to not only weather a lengthy shutdown but to come out stronger on the other side.

Buying opportunitiesAs long term investors, we favour buying into high quality, market-leading companies, at attractive levels. However, one obvious issue is that valuing companies is currently harder than normal as there is less visibility on earnings and the asset value of any business.

To make matters worse, many companies have had to withdraw ‘market guidance’ as they genuinely do not know when their sales will start to recover.

Whilst we cannot profess to have a crystal ball to answer this, what we can do is look through the current turmoil and make a judgement as to whether we see sales and profits returning close to previous levels once ‘normality’ returns and hazard a guess as to how long this may take.

If we are confident that a particular company will recover, then investing now at low levels whilst uncertainty is high, gives us a good opportunity to make attractive returns over the long term.

In the shorter term, news flow may continue to be dire and shares may drift lower, but the very fact that we have bought into a company at the time it has raised money gives us confidence that it is not suddenly about to implode as we (along with other institutional investors) have just provided the company with capital to keep it going!

One such company is Hays, a FTSE 250 recruitment firm, which has recently raised £200m to strengthen its balance sheet. This was quite a surprise to the market, as it was viewed as a strong company with significant headroom on its debt facilities.

Nonetheless, its management felt it sensible to go into the

downturn with a substantial liquidity buffer and whilst it is too early for them to determine the impact of covid-19, they have assumed a 70% fall in revenue in the next four months, followed by a gradual recovery.

To us, this is prudent, sensible, strong management where they have taken precautionary action to protect their business. These are exactly the types of business we want to invest in, ones where management has a strong grip on all the potential scenarios and a strategy in place for each.

We predict that Hays will ultimately be a beneficiary of the downturn as, given the strength of its balance sheet, it should ultimately take market share from weaker rivals. In the shorter term it should benefit from aiding clients with their shifting recruitment needs.

Companies offering essential services such as food and medical supplies are, not surprisingly, seeing a spike in demand and therefore are recruiting temporary workers. Hays can use its market presence to help fill these roles.

One small cap that we purchased at IPO last year is Essensys, which provides IT and software services to the flexible workspace sector. This is an area that was already growing before the lockdown and we expect increased demand for flexible workspace as more and more businesses realise that they can function perfectly well without the majority of employees being in an office.

We anticipate companies increasingly wanting more flexibility with regard to how much office space they have, with long term leases for offices perhaps becoming a thing of the past. With this in mind, Essensys raised some £7m in April to fund the roll out of its services with flexible working space providers such as Jones Lang Lasalle and Cushman & Wakefield.

Also, as the impacts of the coronavirus on the economy

become clearer, we expect to see a growing number of severely impaired companies launch ‘rescue’ rights issues.

Obvious suspects are businesses such as airlines that

will run out of money, or highly indebted companies whose banks may force them to raise equity in return for advancing further debt facilities. In our view these opportunities should be treated with greater care than the stronger, market leading examples mentioned earlier.

Before you invest in companies that are struggling to stave off bankruptcy, it is important to have confidence that the business will still be in existence in years to

come. What may look like a bargain entry price on the face of it, could well turn out to be anything but the case! However, if you are able to identify those companies that have a long term future, then there is serious potential to make many times your initial stake as you are buying in at such a distressed level.

Sale pricesMany investment opportunities have arisen and will continue to arise as a result of the covid-19 impact on the economy. We do not anticipate a smooth recovery and there will be unexpected bumps along the way but, with the sharp falls experienced by equity markets, on the plus side there are now market leading companies available to buy at sale prices.

Those investors willing to take a longer term view of over three years should be well rewarded for the initial discomfort they will inevitably feel when investing in what are unquestionably worrying and turbulent times.

Crisis and retirement:The importance of focusing on the long-termIt is easy to panic when all around you markets are losing their heads, but panic leads to poor decisions. Dan Brocklebank ponders the impact of covid-19 on pension savers

the trough of the market in early 2009.

Another response is to lose sight of the long term. In a crisis, fear is triggered and fear shortens our time horizons. This is a fantastic evolutionary response. But, as tempting as moving to cash may be, knowing what will come next for the market is impossible: if you sell now, are you really going to be willing and able to reinvest when shares are even cheaper?

Holding cash is particularly tempting when markets are crashing and your investment portfolio is one of your main sources of income but, with inflation rates comfortably above any available interest rates, cash holdings simply guarantee a loss of spending power over time.

Stock markets have historically recovered over a long enough horizon. The loss in purchasing power from holding cash today is permanent.

Generating and maintaining an incomeMaintaining a long-term time horizon and avoiding the temptation of cash as a retiree can be difficult. Traditionally, when the majority of people

opted for an annuity to fund their retirement, the thinking was that a retirement portfolio should replicate a 100% bond allocation.

As a result, a culture where equity holdings are reduced to zero ahead of retirement became prevalent. However, pension freedoms since 2014 have given retirees the option to control their own portfolios and income. Coupled with the need to fund a lifestyle in retirement for far longer than our predecessors did, and the need for continued

investment to ensure growth of a portfolio becomes all the more important.

Demographic trends suggest it is time to rethink the traditional approach. The latest data from the Office of National Statistics finds that a man aged 65 today

T he last three decades have seen the world rocked by a number

of major crises. As with the covid-19 pandemic, each crisis permeates the national consciousness, and leaves everyone feeling like it may be the end of life as we know it.

My second son was born in February 2009, right into the teeth of the credit crisis. Like any parent, I can remember the joyous moment vividly. It was also a welcome escape from dealing with the chaos in the markets.

However, the extent to which the crisis had come to dominate the zeitgeist was demonstrated when the midwife brought me back to earth with a bump by ushering my son into the world with the now-immortal words: “Welcome to the credit crisis!”

Yet the experience of each crisis has reinforced my belief in three things. First, that this current crisis, like all others, will eventually end. Secondly, that keeping a long-term perspective is the only real way to take sensible decisions. Thirdly, that panic generally leads to very poor decisions.

While a crisis is the quickest way to learn these lessons, they provide extremely helpful

guidance for thinking about investment generally.

Keep calmTaking those in reverse order, we all recognise that it can be easy to panic in a crisis when markets are falling sharply. MRI scans have shown that financial loss triggers a similar response pattern in the human brain as the experience of physical pain.

When the biggest income-paying companies are scrapping dividends, well-known companies are collapsing and your portfolio has taken a big hit, it can be very scary to be an investor. The fear is even more acute if you are approaching, or already in, retirement when maintaining an income from a steady portfolio is top of your priorities.

A natural response is therefore to react to the unfolding crisis by becoming cautious and trying to avoid any further losses, particularly if your hard-saved for retirement pot is at risk. At a real extreme, reverting entirely to cash may seem very tempting to ‘stop the pain’.

It sounds crazy with hindsight, but there were plenty of people who did exactly this at

rates, cash holdings simply

crisis, but the trick is to remain obsessively focused on the long-term.

As difficult as that may seem to you or I, it is nothing compared to the challenges being faced by all those in the NHS fighting today’s crisis on the front lines. While we wait for this crisis to pass, the rest of us must simply remember to stay calm and be patient.

Dan Brocklebank is head of Orbis Investments in the UK.

can expect to live for another 20 years, and a woman can look forward to an average of 22 more years. For an increasing number of people, life expectancy could stretch even further in the future.

The ONS also found that a man aged 65 today has a 1 in 4 chance of living to 92, and a 2.9% chance of living to 100. A woman reaching retirement age has a 1 in 4 chance of living to 94, and nearly 5% chance of living to 100. The length you spend in retirement could – I would argue hopefully – stretch into decades.

Generating and maintaining an income for 20 years after retirement clearly still requires a long-term investment outlook. Traditional financial planning for retirement can end up leading to an investment approach that is overly conservative and one that is effectively invested in too short-term a manner, like a mild version of the panicked investor moving to cash at the bottom of the crisis.

Recognition that retirement today is quite probably a 20+ year horizon gives the freedom to stay invested, sensibly, in assets such as equities which will generate better long-term returns than government bonds, particularly at today’s rock bottom yields.

Of course, this is not a signal to simply rush in to high-risk assets, but is rather a call to reconsider the approach to risk we take in retirement. A diversified approach to equities could very well reap rewards over the 20 years you have to remain invested, and that is plenty of time to ride out market volatility.

Conclusion Investing through past crises shows us that keeping a long-term horizon and not panicking are the keys to avoiding big mistakes. With investing, that is often more than half the battle. So, how can we be confident that the first lesson above, namely that this current crisis will eventually end, is also true?

Well, the short answer is that we cannot be perfectly certain. But, the odds must be

stacked in our favour. It may not feel like it but, compared to previous generations, we live in remarkably fortunate times. Not only is life expectancy post-retirement at a high, but we also have access to health technology that would have been unimaginable 20 years ago.

When that NHS midwife brought me back, with a bump, to the reality of the credit crisis, I learned it takes a courage to remain invested through a

Approaching retirement? How to plan and protect your savingsRetirement should be one of the most exciting times of your life, but planning for it can be a daunting, and often confusing experience, especially when a global pandemic has thrown markets into turmoil. With people living longer than ever and pension pots needing to last for an average of 40 years, it has never been more important to have a strategy in place that allows you to live out your retirement safe in the knowledge that you can maintain your financial independence.

Granville Turner, director at company formation specialists Turner Little, urged careful consideration of the quality of life you are expecting when you stop working, as well as your financial goals.

“Your state pension is unlikely to be enough to provide the income you need to maintain a comfortable standard of living, to cover your retirement on its own. Are you planning on having enough money to pay for family holidays, buying property, contributing to family wedding costs? You will also need to factor in how your circumstances might change in the years ahead. Post-retirement risks include changes in your life or the life of a loved one, the need for professional caregivers or moving to a facility due to failing health. There are also financial risks that revolve around investments and stock market activities as well as governmental decisions that could affect retirees,” he said.

“Getting an early start on your retirement plans ensures you are likely to have more money when you retire. That is not to say it is ever too late to plan. The first step you need to take is to check your pensions. Topping up your pension plan can improve your financial security. Making a larger contribution is the obvious way to boost your pension pot, but you might also want to consider diverting some of a bonus to your pension. The tax relief makes a bonus worth more in your pension than in your bank account, so it is important to remember that you do not pay tax on the growth in your pension funds. It can also be combined with other savings vehicles such as ISAs and assets including property to maximise your funds for retirement.

“In the current circumstances however, savers and pensioners alike may be looking at drops in their investments. This turbulence will no doubt cause worry, but there are still ways to protect your retirement savings. In the first instance, do not panic. Keep in mind that with retirement savings, you are investing for the long-term, so the drop in value may not be permanent. If you are in a position where you are still building your retirement fund, use this time to review the investments you have made, and consider diversifying your investments across different assets and countries. Having a range of investments from gold to government bonds and absolute return funds is good for capital preservation,” he added.

Concluding, Granville said: “Many retirees plan on supplementing their income by working during retirement, but choosing the point at which you retire is integral to retirement planning. Whilst you can carry on working for as long as you like, it is important to understand that when you retire, you will still be liable for income tax on your pension income if it exceeds your personal allowance. Inheritance tax can also have an impact on your estate, so it is important to put together a carefully considered plan to protect your liabilities. Retirement is no longer linear, some people continue to work into their 60s and 70s, whilst others retire at 45. Whatever you decide, having a plan is essential, as you will likely be faced with a series of complex decisions that will shape your income for the rest of your life.

“Even the best laid plans can fail as a result of unexpected events. Although some risks can be minimised, there are a number of potential risks completely out of your control. However, understanding what the potential post-retirement risks are, and considering them in your retirement planning stages can help ensure they are mitigated and properly managed.”

A berdeen Diversified Income and Growth Trust (ADIG), founded

in 1898 as British Assets Trust, was a global equity income investment trust managed by F&C Investments (now BMO Global Asset Management) until February 2015. The mandate then moved to BlackRock and the trust became BlackRock Income Strategies, a multi-asset strategy with an absolute return focus.

The fund undertook a strategic review after a period of disappointing performance, resulting in Aberdeen Asset Management (now Aberdeen Standard Investments) being appointed as manager in February 2017. It was then enlarged by a merger with Aberdeen UK Tracker Trust and renamed Aberdeen Diversified Income and Growth Trust.

ADIG retains a multi-asset, absolute return approach, but now invests in a more diverse portfolio including longer-term, less liquid investment funds that individual investors would otherwise be unlikely or unable to access.

Since 31 March 2017, ADIG has

The managers’ viewFocus on long-term investments ADIG’s portfolio management team remains committed to offering its shareholders long-term investments in less accessible asset classes with different risk/return drivers and low volatility. The managers’ preference is for ‘alternative assets’, which improve returns and diversification of investor portfolios. They note that ‘mainstream’ assets appear fully valued and do not currently offer attractive medium-term return prospects. This includes developed market government bonds, corporate credit and listed equities, which the managers forecast will deliver annual returns of 0.2%, 0.6% and 3.5%, respectively, over the next five years as at end-September 2019.

The managers are thus advancing the process of recycling capital from listed to unlisted holdings as appropriate investments are identified by the investment team. The process has been a bit slower than anticipated but overall, they have been pleased with the recent pace of investment. The managers explained that they would prefer the managers of the companies to which ADIG has committed funds to take time to identify the appropriate investments.

been targeting a total portfolio return of Libor + 5.5% pa net of fees over rolling five-year periods. Libor is due to be phased out by 2021 and the manager is in the process of identifying a suitable alternative, following which the board will seek shareholders’ approval for a change in the investment objective. ADIG is a member of the Association of Investment Companies’ Flexible Investment sector.

The trust’s portfolio is managed by Mike Brooks who is head of Aberdeen Standard Investments’ (ASI) diversified assets team and Tony Foster, an investment director within the team. The team also manages

the Diversified Growth and the Diversified Income funds which follow a similar approach to ADIG but have a slightly lower return target of Libor +4.5% pa net of fees. This is because ADIG’s closed-ended structure allows it to invest in less liquid assets and it is also able to use gearing of up to 20% of net assets. ASI says the open-ended fund range has grown its assets under management from £150m when Brooks took it over in the first quarter of 2015 to ca £1,535m at end- January 2020.

change in strategy have lagged the target return of Libor + 5.5%.

There are two principal reasons for this: first, the time inevitably taken for the trust’s commitments to higher-return long-term investments to be drawn down and invested by the managers of the underlying strategies, and second, issues with the allocations to insurance-linked securities.

The latter contributed negative 5.1% to NAV total return (TR) since the strategy change to end-December 2019. At the same time, notable positive contributions in this period came from listed equity (+4.4%) and infrastructure (+4.1%), followed by emerging market bonds (+2.6%) and asset-backed securities (+1.9%).

Over the 12 months ended December 2019, ADIG delivered an NAV TR of 9.2%, which compares with 6.2% for its benchmark. Performance in the period was driven by emerging market bonds (EMBs), listed equity and infrastructure, which contributed 3.2%, 2.6% and 2.1%, respectively, to NAV TR. Major negative contributions came from special opportunities (negative 1.1%), insurance- linked securities (-0.5%) and absolute return (-0.3%).

In January 2020, ADIG’s portfolio delivered NAV TR of positive 0.8% as the weak performance of listed equities was offset by solid returns of EMBs and asset backed securities, in particular ADIG’s largest exposure, TwentyFour Asset Backed Opportunities Fund. ADIG’s year-to-date NAV TR stands at a negative 5.3%. In this context, we note that around 75% of its portfolio is priced daily.

Given that ADIG holds ca 18% of the portfolio in the Aberdeen Smart Beta Low Volatility Global Equity Income fund, we note that the fund has generated a return of 5.2% over the 12 months ended January 2020 versus 16.4% for its benchmark, and an annualised return of 4.5% since its inception in May 2017 versus 9.4% for its benchmark. ADIG highlights that the underperformance results

from the disparity between growth and value styles, which has been recently close to record levels in favour of growth stocks. This is illustrated by the gross returns of the MSCI World Value Index at 11% vs ca 26% for the MSCI World Growth Index over the 12 months ended 31 January 2020.

ADIG’s share price performance lagged its NAV progression over the year ended 31 January 2020, which we believe reflects investors’ weakening sentiment towards the trust due to a somewhat disappointing performance compared to its benchmark since the change in strategy in March 2017.

Since the change in strategy in March 2017, ADIG has been targeting a maximum discount of 5% in ‘normal’ market conditions. In March 2019, ADIG traded at a small premium but the shares de-rated markedly over the summer. The managers highlighted it was partly attributable to a sale during a quiet period of

the year by a shareholder who was moving to a more overtly defensive asset allocation, and partly as a result of weakening sentiment towards the trust caused by the disappointing exposure to insurance-linked securities. As a result, the discount moved to double- digit territory in May 2019, which has triggered accelerated share repurchases. Since end-May 2019 to end-January 2020, the trust bought back 10.2m shares, or 3.1% of the share count at the start of the period.

As well as acting as a marginal buyer in the market, ADIG’s board sees building greater awareness of the strategy and the managers’ long-term track record as key to bringing the trust’s discount back into the target range. However, at 12 March 2020, ADIG’s shares still traded at a 13.0% discount to NAV including income, compared to the average discount of 7.3% over 12 months.

Investment strategyA long-term focusADIG aims to generate highly attractive long-term capital and income returns by pursuing a truly diversified multi-asset approach, using both quoted and unquoted investments, with no geographical or sector restrictions. The trust’s focus is to provide investors with long-term investment opportunities in less accessible asset classes with different risk/return drivers. This is underpinned by robust risk management through maintaining an appropriate level of portfolio diversification and the use of detailed due diligence, specialist quantitative risk tools, ongoing scenario analysis, liquidity stress tests and peer review of investment ideas within the investment team.

ASI’s global investment platform consists of over 1,000 investment professionals across teams specialising in quantitative and active equities, private equity, fixed income, property, infrastructure, real assets, hedge funds and other alternative asset classes. ADIG has access to these teams’ expertise either via pooled funds or direct investment sub-portfolios. In addition, Tony Foster’s many years as a manager of investment trust portfolios helps to inform third-party manager selection, particularly with regard to the listed funds.

The company follows a flexible approach to asset allocation, with a focus on alternative assets, including social, renewable and economic infrastructure, farmland, property, private equity, healthcare royalties, asset-backed securities and litigation finance. Liquid asset classes such as equity and emerging market bonds also feature. ADIG is unlikely to invest in government and investment grade bonds given their low return expectations.

At end-September 2019, ca 61% of total assets were in ASI-managed funds or direct holdings, and ca 39% comprised third-party managed funds, which is broadly in line with the targeted split of ca 60%/40% upon full drawdown of commitments. Non-sterling currency exposure is typically hedged back to sterling unless currency exposure is part of the investment rationale, such as for local currency emerging market bonds. The local currency emerging market bonds position, rather than being funded entirely from sterling, is funded from a basket of six currencies (AUD, NZD, CAD, NOK, SEK, GBP). These have been carefully selected to reflect their sensitivities to economic conditions, commodity prices and debt vulnerabilities. According to the company, this has the effect of smoothing out returns and enhancing the diversification benefits of the asset class without materially impacting expected returns. Active currency positions may be taken in order to enhance the portfolio’s risk/return profile.

Bear markets often create new turning points and changes in market leadership. A period of sustained fiscal stimulus may throw up new leadership and new winners from discarded losers, so I am working with our team of analysts to revisit the laggards as well as the long-term winners in their coverage. For example, what would happen if the US and/or China implement another auto scrappage subsidy? After the 2011 earthquake in Japan, tolls were cut to zero on the motorways to encourage domestic tourism. So things can and will change quickly when there is stimulus at the micro level, as this will push the market to look through the current near-term negativity in those areas.

Against this backdrop, it is our job to get active and find the new winners. If we keep on speaking to company management teams and casting the net wider while the market is busy focusing on daily newsflow, we should be well placed to find the new winners.

Recent portfolio activityOverall, I have not made any significant changes to the positioning of the Trust and continue to focus on stocks where I have a high level of conviction in their mid-term growth prospects.

Many of the companies held in the fund are market share gainers that are well positioned to come

Market turbulence can often lead to new winners and losers. With this in mind, Fidelity Japan Trust PLC’s Nicholas Price outlines how our locally-based team

are navigating the recent market turmoil and focuses on the sectors and stocks that could rebound strongest

out of the current downturn stronger than their competitors. Key holdings such as Keyence, Yamaha and Misumi Group are good examples.

In line with this view, I am maintaining the technology bias in the fund, focusing on names with strong balance sheets, reasonable valuations and a secular growth story. I think that there is a strong cycle ahead, supported by the shift to 5G and a new data-driven WFH cycle, and there is a good chance that these companies will lead us out of this crisis as demand for their products and services is likely delayed rather than foregone.

At the same time, I am looking at domestic services stocks that are well positioned to recover and grow their businesses once restrictions are lifted.

A lot of these names have been sold off sharply since the end of last year and offer attractive upside potential. I feel much more confident that the downturn is discounted when I see price-to-book ratios getting close to Lehman levels, particularly among small-caps, which have moved very quickly.

Companies in areas such as IT services, ecommerce and online learning that can benefit from changes in working practices and the ways in which we shop and play once the pandemic abates also look interesting.

Ultimately, I believe that there is greater risk in trying to time the market than maintaining existing positions in companies that can grow and even be stronger after the crisis.

On the flipside, I have been selectively reducing exposure to some consistent growers, where the relative valuations remain elevated and there will be at least two quarters of tough earnings. When aggregate demand goes close to zero, even the market share gainers cannot gain share of zero. I am also closely watching balance sheet leverage and covenants for the few companies in the fund which are relatively highly leveraged. Many of these stocks have been punished over recent times but those that can adapt will be well positioned to reward investors willing to take a longer-term view.

Important information: The value of investments can go down as well as up and you may not get back the amount you invested. Overseas investments are subject to currency fluctuations. The trust invests more heavily than others in smaller companies, which can carry a higher risk because their share prices may be more volatile than those of larger companies and the securities are often less liquid. The shares in the investment trust are listed on the London Stock Exchange and their price is affected by supply and demand. The investment trust can gain additional exposure to the market, known as gearing, potentially increasing volatility.

Beginning its life in 2001 as HBM BioVentures, HBM Healthcare

Investments (HBMN) is a

HBM Healthcare InvestmentsA diversified private/public portfolio

Switzerland-based healthcare investment company that has been listed on the SIX Swiss Exchange since 2008. It has evolved from a pure private equity investor focused on the biopharmaceutical sector into a globally diversified portfolio of listed and private healthcare companies and private equity funds.

While more than half of the portfolio is now invested in

public equities, many of these companies, including six of the top 10 holdings, originated in the private segment.

Its main aim is to achieve long-term capital growth for its investors, but the fund also offers a high distribution policy, paying out ca 3-5% of NAV each year.

HBMN measures its performance with reference to the MSCI World Health Care Index in Swiss franc terms. However, given the significant proportion in unlisted holdings and the lack of exposure to ‘big pharma’, investors should be prepared for the fund’s performance to differ materially from that of the index.

In particular, its conservative approach to valuing private investments should limit the volatility of returns, although it should be noted that some of these companies may be earlier- stage and therefore at higher risk of disappointing clinical outcomes.

The fund publishes fortnightly NAVs, monthly summary factsheets, and full portfolio valuations are available quarterly. It is overseen by a six-strong non-executive board mainly made up of pharmaceutical industry specialists. The fund

The managers’ viewHolding up well amid turbulence On 13 March 2020, at the end of one of the worst weeks in global financial markets for many years as the coronavirus disease covid-19 spread further throughout the world, managers Andreas Wicki and Erwin Troxler said that notwithstanding the headline-grabbing race for a vaccine or cure for the disease, the immediate impact on the healthcare and biotech sector is likely to be twofold. First, ongoing clinical trials in a hospital setting are likely to be suspended, and recruitment for new trials will slow or stop, as hospitals will need their full capacity for accommodating the increased patient load. This could push out timelines for clinical readouts and drug approvals. Secondly, doctors with their hands full dealing with the disease outbreak will have less time or inclination to see drug company representatives, which could slow the pace of new product sales. While a pause of perhaps six months on a trial would have little impact on the clinical outcome, they point out that for companies short on development financing, the delay could mean they need to raise money, which is likely to be done based on lower valuations as a result of the market sell-off.

However, the managers say that HBMN’s private portfolio is primarily positioned in mature companies, as part of strong syndicates or with existing partners that have cash to finance immediate needs, so the risk of having to seek third-party financing and incur a material write-down is relatively limited.

While HBMN’s NAV fell by 12.6% between 15 February and 15 March, this was far less than the 24.2% decline in the MSCI World Health Care Index between these dates and all in Swiss franc terms, despite headwinds from the weakening US dollar. On the public side of the portfolio, performance was helped by the fund’s hedges of short positions in S&P Biotech Index ETFs, which the managers have reduced with each leg down in the market, generating cash “to grab opportunities in public markets when the time is right”, while effectively increasing market exposure at lower valuations. Chief financial officer Erwin Troxler said the high cash balance also means HBMN is very well positioned for paying its dividend, which will be declared with the fund’s final FY 2020 results to 31 March, due out in May.

Performance HBMN enjoyed a period of particularly strong performance over the 12 months to the end of February 2020, with both the share price and NAV reaching all-time highs during the month.

However, the severe global market sell-off caused by the coronavirus pandemic and the oil price war between former OPEC allies has undoubtedly had a negative impact, and HBMN’s share price and NAV fell by 22.1% and 8.5%, respectively,

individual holdings are valued conservatively at book cost.

The fund’s equity market hedges (ca 18% of public equity exposure was hedged at end-February) have also proved beneficial, and the managers have reduced them(to ca 10% of the portfolio at mid-March as markets have fallen, generating cash proceeds of ca CHF45m. The deliberately high cash balance of CHF220m at end-February, or 14% of total assets, has provided a further buffer in the recent sell-off.

While it is tempting in the midst of a market panic to focus on the very short term, it is important to remember that investment is a long-term endeavour, particularly in areas such as healthcare and biotechnology, where new product development can take many years.

HBMN has substantially outperformed the MSCI World Health Care Index in Swiss franc terms to end-February in both NAV and share price total return terms. It has also outperformed the NASDAQ Biotechnology Index over three, six and 12 months and three, five and 10 years; and is materially ahead of the broad UK equity market over all periods under consideration.

HBMN’s managers are seeing opportunities as a result of falling share prices in stocks such as Y-mAbs Therapeutics and XBiotech, a position sold in February after its sale of an asset to Johnson & Johnson.

Wicki noted that Y-mAbs has fallen dramatically on the back of low trading volumes but without any negative newsflow: “It still has two products coming to market this year and is now ridiculously undervalued.”

In the case of XBiotech, he said that it may once again look attractive on a long-term basis, having fallen by more than 50% compared with HBMN’s exit price, to the point where it is now trading below the value of its cash.

Investment strategySeeking listed and unlisted opportunitiesWhile it has its roots in private equity investment, HBMN now invests across the spectrum of listed and unlisted companies in the healthcare and biotechnology sectors, as well as in private equity funds. HBM Partners has teams specialising in private and listed equity, and the teams meet with each other weekly to discuss clinical and market developments. Most of the investment team members have a life sciences background.

HBMN follows a bottom-up approach, selecting stocks from an investment universe of ca 1,000 companies to build a diversified portfolio of ca 60-100 investments with solid long-term growth potential. In order to generate investment ideas, the teams track clinical trends, attend industry conferences, and communicate with a network of industry experts and executives. They then analyse potential investments both quantitatively and qualitatively, assessing the companies’ intellectual property and stakeholder involvement, and write up a summary of the opportunity, which may include a recommendation to invest.

On the private equity side, the team sources deals through its own networks, as well as via investment banks, other venture capital investors and directly, aiming typically to make eight to 12 deals each year. HBMN seeks to be an active lead or co-lead investor, sharing entrepreneurial responsibility with a firm’s management team, and securing board representation. A clear expectation of an exit, usually either through an initial public offering (IPO) or trade sale, is inherent in all private investments. In recent times many of HBMN’s new private positions have been taken specifically as pre-IPO investments, with the expectation of flotation in a matter of months, although some private holdings have been in the portfolio for a number of years.

The private portfolio is characterised by a conservative approach to valuation, with most positions held at acquisition cost. They may be revalued up or down when a financing round with a third-party lead investor establishes a new ‘price’, and will be written down in steps of 25%, 50%, 75% or 100% in response to negative clinical or regulatory developments. Positive developments are reflected only at the point of a liquidity event, such as a third-party financing round, IPO or trade sale. The exception is where a private company has significant revenues and profits, in which case it will be valued based on appropriate sales or earnings multiples. In the listed portfolio, valuations are based on market prices, and reflect positive or negative sentiment and/or developments as they occur.

HBMN’s managers seek to build a portfolio that is diversified by geography, clinical focus and development stage. The private equity funds portfolio has a tilt towards emerging markets, where it may be harder for the team to assess individual private opportunities. The overriding aim is to generate long-term capital growth, although there is also a focus on downside protection through the use of hedges in the public portfolio currently covering ca 10%. Positions are continually reviewed, and risk management also includes ongoing monitoring of global markets and macroeconomic developments.

F ounded as the Taverners Trust and initially managed by Aberdeen

Asset Management, the trust became the Midas Income & Growth Trust in August 2005. In January 2012, the board made a number of changes with a view to improving the trust’s future total returns, including rebasing the dividend to what was deemed a sustainable level and changing the benchmark from an absolute return of 8% per year to three-month Libor +3%.

In March 2014, the fund’s investment manager was purchased by Seneca Asset Managers. The fund management business was renamed Seneca Investment Managers (SIML) and the trust itself was renamed Seneca Global Income & Growth Trust (SIGT), highlighting its diverse mandate.

SIML is a value-based, multi-asset specialist; it employs a transparent investment process and SIGT’s holdings are straightforward to understand. The multi-asset strategy aims to provide reasonable returns over the medium to long term, while generating lower volatility of returns versus an equity-only fund.

Since July 2017, SIGT’s performance is benchmarked against CPI +6% pa, which it aims to outperform over the course of a typical investment cycle. This is defined as a five- to 10-year period, in which returns from various asset classes are generally in line with their very long-term averages.

SIML believes that SIGT’s investment objective can be achieved using a combination of strategic asset allocation (SAA),

Seneca Global Income & Growth TrustMulti-asset value investing

tactical asset allocation (TAA) and investing in undervalued assets, while employing a modest level of gearing. The trust has a progressive dividend policy, targeting an annual increase at least in line with UK CPI inflation.

The different asset classes within SIGT’s portfolio are UK equities (primarily direct investments), overseas equities (funds), fixed income securities (direct or funds), specialist assets (funds – infrastructure, specialist financial, property and private equity), and cash/managed liquidity/physical gold/gold miners.

In order to mitigate risk, SIGT has a series of investment guidelines in place: at the time of purchase, up to 7.5% of gross assets may be held in any individual direct equity or fixed income investment, and up to 10% in any collective vehicle; a maximum 7.5% of gross assets may be invested in unquoted securities; and up to 25% of gross assets may be held in cash and equivalents. Gearing of up to 25% of NAV is permitted at the time of drawdown; at end-February 2020, SIGT had a 0.6% net liquid position.

SIML’s investment team has four fund managers, all of whom have individual research responsibilities: Mark Wright

(UK equities); Gary Moglione (developed markets overseas equities/fixed income and specialist financial assets); Tom Delic (emerging markets overseas equities/fixed income); and Richard Parfect (specialist assets, excluding specialist financials). Moglione and Parfect also have portfolio oversight responsibilities, which involve decision implementation and cash and cash flow management; however, they only have limited discretion to deviate from the target portfolio that is agreed by the whole team.

Performance In H1 2020 ending 31 October 2019, SIGT’s NAV and share price total returns of -1.6% and -0.8%, respectively, were behind the benchmark’s +3.7% total return. The largest positive contributors to absolute NAV performance in H120 were Arrow Global Group (+0.45pp) and Investec Global Gold Fund (+0.45pp), while the largest detractors were Kier Group (-1.21pp) and Woodford Patient Capital Trust (-0.94pp). Over the period, SIGT’s annualised volatility was 6.2% compared with 11.4% for the broad UK market.

Over the longer term, data from SIML show that since the change in mandate in January 2012 to end-February 2020, the

trust’s volatility of returns is 8.4% pa, versus an average 11.8% pa for the AIC Flexible Investment sector and 13.2% pa for the broad UK market.

While not unexpected given its inflation-linked benchmark, SIGT’s relative returns have suffered in recent months in a falling market, which has negatively affected its longer-term

track record. The trust retains its significant outperformance versus the blended benchmark in both NAV and share price terms since the change in mandate in 2012. However, its NAV is now modestly behind over five years, and is lagging over the last one and three years.

SIGT continues to outperform the broad UK market; it is

ahead over all periods shown, particularly over the last three and five years and since the change in mandate. From the end of February to 16 March 2020, while the trust has underperformed its benchmark by 15.6pp, it has outperformed the broad UK market by 9.6pp.

Investment strategySeeking undervalued assetsSIGT’s investment team seeks undervalued opportunities across a range of asset classes, aiming to generate aggregate total returns in excess of CPI +6% pa over the course of a typical investment cycle. As the trust’s income is derived from a wide range of sources, there is a good degree of certainty regarding the ability to generate a robust and growing revenue stream.

The team employs a long-term strategic asset allocation (SAA) between UK equities, overseas equities, fixed income and specialist assets (including property), on the assumption that future long-term returns of individual asset classes will be comparable to their historical long-term returns. There is also a shorter-term TAA; this differs from the SAA according to which assets offer the best value and future return prospects given the stage of the investment cycle (expansion, peak, recession or recovery). In order to determine the stage of the cycle, the managers assess economic indicators such as yield curves, inflation and unemployment.

UK equities held are primarily direct investments, with a focus on mid-cap companies. The manager seeks businesses with growing cash flows and dividends. Smaller companies have superior growth potential and have outperformed large-cap firms in recent decades; they can be under-researched and therefore mispriced in the market. In terms of overseas equities held, these are funds run by benchmark-agnostic, niche managers, whose portfolios have a high active share. Fixed income investments are currently all in funds, with a focus on capital preservation as well as yield. SIML seeks active managers who avoid defaults. For specialist assets, SIGT invests in funds in this heterogeneous asset class providing exposure to real assets. There is a focus on security of income, and asset and terminal values. These securities offer the potential to reduce portfolio volatility while enhancing returns.

SIML employs a team-based investment approach and all portfolio changes are agreed before implementation, which acts as an effective risk control. Any variances between actual portfolio exposures and their target weightings are closely monitored.

The managers’ view‘Keep calm and carry on’ Fund manager Gary Moglione said that while it is difficult to comment on the macro backdrop when markets are being heavily influenced by the coronavirus outbreak, he believes that there will be a significant negative impact on global supply chains, and multiple profit warnings from companies across a range of sectors. However, the manager reiterates that SIGT focuses on the long term, and the short-term market sell-off may be providing interesting investment opportunities. He said he will not panic and sell positions at depressed valuations into a falling market; instead he has been incrementally adding holdings that the team considers have become oversold.

While, historically, disease epidemics have led to sharp shocks in the market, Moglione said in 11 of the last 12 incidences, stocks had rallied within the subsequent six months. However, he does acknowledge the impact of increased globalisation in the spread of covid-19, which may mean this disease has more serious implications for economic growth than prior outbreaks. Despite this, the manager believes that markets will eventually recover.

Moglione highlighted that SIGT’s UK equity exposure is domestically focused and should respond positively to any good news surrounding Brexit. In the two days following the Conservative victory at the December 2019 general election, the broad UK market rallied by 5.4%, while SIGT’s UK portfolio rose by 11.0% on hopes of progress towards leaving the European Union. However, the manager said following an initial period of euphoria, UK stocks fell the following week as a hard end-2020 Brexit transition deadline was announced. Moglione expects Brexit-induced volatility in the UK market until the end of the year, commenting that if a deal is done, domestic stocks should perform relatively well; he noted that until the situation is resolved and valuations normalise, he is happy to collect a steady stream of dividends from SIGT’s UK equity holdings.

The manager explained that value stocks are more cyclical than growth stocks and have been hurt more in the recent stock market sell-off. Central banks are reducing interest rates, which is beneficial for the performance of long-duration assets, suggesting high-quality growth stocks may continue to outperform. Moglione said there was a promising sign of a return to value-led stock market leadership in Q4 2019, but he believes the coronavirus will exacerbate the divergence in performance between quality and value stocks. However, when there is an environment of rising bond yields, the manager suggests that “value stocks could move up quickly”.

VietNam HoldingPrice 132.5pMarket cap £67.4mNAV* 172.4pDiscount to NAV 23.1%Yield 0.0%* As at 13 March 2020.

V ietNam Holding (VNH) was launched in April 2006 as a closed-ended

fund, incorporated in the Cayman Islands and listed on AIM. It changed its legal domicile to Guernsey in February 2019, de-listed from AIM and was admitted to the Main Market of the London Stock Exchange in March 2019.

The fund has been managed by Dynam Capital since July 2018, replacing the previous manager VNH Asset Management, which had been in place since VNH’s inception.

The fund’s objective is to generate long-term capital appreciation through investing in a relatively concentrated, yet diversified portfolio of around 20 to 25 companies that have high growth potential at attractive valuations. The disciplined investment approach is both bottom up and top down, with environmental, social and governance considerations a part of the process.

The company has been a signatory of the Principles of Responsible Investment for over a decade, and adopts its guidelines to exclude certain investments, such as companies with significant exposure to alcohol and tobacco, and those that do not commit to reducing, in a measurable way, pollution and environmental problems arising from their business activities.

Gearing is permitted up to 25% of NAV; however, VNH has historically not used this capability. The fund is also able to invest up to 20% of NAV in private companies; it currently has one unlisted holding accounting for less than 5% of the portfolio.

PerformanceAs the current manager, Dynam Capital, was appointed in

shortcomings and broaden its appeal to shareholders; these include the appointment of the current manager, a reduction in the management fee, the change of the fund’s domicile, and re-listing on the Main Market of the London Stock Exchange.

These changes, combined with increased market efforts and improved sentiment towards Vietnam equities, may help VNH’s discount to narrow.

July 2018, the most relevant performance numbers to consider are for one year and less, and since change (SC). VNH’s NAV total return over one year has been flat relative to the VN All-Share Index.

Since the change of manager, the fund has underperformed, partly reflecting some transition-related issues. Shortly after the appointment of Dynam Capital, the board conducted a tender offer for up to 15% of issued equity, requiring the manager to provide liquidity to accommodate repurchases.

This represented a distraction from the day-to-day investing activities for the team. Furthermore, the new manager inherited two illiquid holdings it did not wish to keep: Yeah1 and VietCapital Securities.

These disposals were the largest detractors to relative performance since the change. Performance for periods less than one year have also lagged the index; however, the manager has a long-term investment horizon and is not influenced by short-term numbers.

VNH trades at a 23.1% discount to its total return NAV, which is considerably wider than its three-year average of 16.0%, partly reflecting the relatively short tenure of the new manager, and the company’s historic governance issues associated

with the previous board and management company. It also reflects investors’ lowered risk appetite in the current uncertain environment, which has resulted in wider discounts across the peer group since the outbreak of the coronavirus.

A new board was appointed in September 2017 and is committed to narrowing VNH’s discount and promoting the interests of shareholders. It has made significant changes to address the fund’s previous

Investment strategyRigorous analysis, company engagementThe Dynam Capital team follows a rigorous fundamental investment process, unconstrained by any index, to invest in a relatively concentrated portfolio of 20 to 25 of its highest-conviction stocks. Dynam employs both bottom-up and top-down analysis in its investment approach. The team is looking for companies that are well-managed industry leaders with a strong competitive position and healthy balance sheets, yet which are attractively valued. ESG assessments are integrated into the company analysis and the manager believes firms that score highly on this front tend to outperform over the long term. Engagement with management is important and Dynam seeks to add value to a company by advising it in areas such as improving corporate governance, board restructuring and training, and raising awareness of environmental and social initiatives. Dynam believes its active approach to ESG differentiates VNH from many Vietnamese equity products and that it is a thought-leader within the country. CIO Vu Quang Thinh leads Dynam’s company engagement process. Also a member of the Vietnam Institute of Directors, he is held in high regard in business circles on ESG matters in Vietnam.

The manager is typically biased in favour of small- and mid-cap companies, as these are often less well researched and more open to engagement. VNH’s relatively small size gives it the flexibility to invest in companies further down the market capitalisation spectrum, and around half of the portfolio is held in sub-$1bn companies. As a signatory of the PRI, the fund follows its guidelines which exclude certain investments, including companies with significant revenues from alcohol, tobacco, armaments and gambling. The fund will also not invest in companies that do not commit to reducing pollution and environmental problems caused by their business activities.

WI

The managers’ viewOutstanding long-term prospects The manager believes the coronavirus outbreak will have a meaningful and negative impact on Vietnam’s GDP growth in 2020. The team’s prior expectations for 7% growth this year will be cut, but there remains much uncertainty on the duration and impact of the virus. However, in Dynam’s view, when normality returns, there is likely to be a rapid rebound in domestic confidence, which should be reflected favourably in the domestic stock markets. The manager notes that Vietnam’s economy was robust prior to the outbreak, with record levels of foreign currency reserves, and this should help provide a buffer to some of the short-term impacts.

The team is focused on the longer term, and believes Vietnam has outstanding economic prospects. The economy is one of the fastest growing in the world, and Dynam expects it to be one of the largest 20 in the world by 2050. The manager identifies three key secular growth trends – rising incomes, urbanisation and industrialisation – and believes these underpin excellent long-term opportunities for investing in Vietnam. The team noted that the country’s GDP per capita, at approximately $3,000, is typically the inflexion point for acceleration.

Following a correction in Vietnamese equities, the manager believes that the market is attractively valued at a forward p/e multiple of ca 11x (excluding outliers). Dynam also believes there is considerable hidden value in the NAV of the fund because nearly half of the portfolio is held in stocks that have reached their foreign ownership limit (FOL). When this limit is reached, foreign buyers often offer a premium to the listed share price; however, NAVs must use the quoted price. Premiums for FOL companies currently range between around 7% and 30%.

O dyssean may be a ‘newer’ name to many investors, inspired by

Odysseus who was a legendary hero in Greek mythology and the main protagonist of Homer’s epic Odyssey.

Troy Asset Management (TAM), on the other hand, is well-known to many investors with a deserved reputation for its sensible long term investment strategies and Troy Income & Growth Investment Trust’s (TIGiT) share price and net asset value (NAV) has demonstrated this during the early stages of the coronavirus crisis.

TAM released performance figures for the period leading up to 31 March 2020 just after Easter, commenting: “March saw the equity market downturn of the previous month accelerate into bear market territory, with a total return of -15.1% for the FTSE All-Share Index.

“The trust demonstrated more resilience than the market but the NAV total return of -10.4% and price total return of -7.3% for the month shows that the severity of the fall could only be partially resisted.

“Many business models are being tested to their limits and the need for balance sheet strength and liquidity has rarely been at more of a premium.”

TAM added: “With businesses prioritising the preservation of cash, the outlook for the market dividend is now more uncertain than at any time since 2008. The number of deferred or cancelled dividends, including those already declared, is extensive and climbs every day. We expect more companies will take this route and in particular those that have received government support.

“While market falls have had a degree of discrimination, good and great businesses have still fallen along with mediocre and poor ones. For some companies, current events may permanently impair their business model and dividend paying ability, but for others this will be a passing setback from which the strong will emerge stronger. Therefore,

we are pressing on with our previously communicated strategy of driving up the quality and resilience of the portfolio.”

The trust’s managers, Francis Brooke and Hugo Ure, believe the trust is in good shape longer term, and the evidence of their historical performance makes the trust’s shares worth looking at, even if they are at a slight premium to the underlying assets.

History shows it can be worth paying a premium for quality during an economic or stockmarket crisis and a look at TIGiT’s underlying holdings shows a portfolio of strong, high quality businesses.

UK focusThe Odyssean Investment Trust invests predominantly in UK-listed companies in the market cap range of £150-750m and is managed by a talented fund manager, Stuart Widdowson, who

had an excellent track record at his previous group,

where he also invested in these parts of the market.

Odyssean came into 2020 in good shape

with a cheap portfolio by most measures including a forward p/e of 15x with a dividend yield of 2.9% and low net debt

of 0.8 times across the companies.

Notably, the top 10 holdings account for around

75% of the trust’s NAV and this includes companies like Wilmington, Chemring and

Equiniti, but the trust also held a decent chunk of cash, which has given it some cushion against the market sell-off.

The manager does not aim for higher yielding stocks, and there are higher yields out there but as the manager points out with interest rates even lower since the turn of the year 2.9% is even more attractive than cash.

He has created a portfolio whose underlying companies, although all UK-listed, generate revenue on a global basis, so when looked at from that perspective around 40% comes from the UK, 25% from the US, 20% from Europe and 15% from the rest of the world.

The trust described the strategy as being more akin to a private equity style of investing rather than the traditional, typical long-only fund. It aims for a maximum of 25 holdings in the UK small and mid-cap sectors, where a long-only fund would have up to 100, while private equity would have 10-15. It aims to stay invested in the underlying companies for three-to-five years as a minimum, owning up to 20% of a company and playing the role of an active investor.

There are a number of investment trusts in the small and mid-cap sector but this one is well-worth a look because of its more focused approach, proven track record of the fund manager and the current discount on the shares. WI

S o what are real assets and what do we mean by core?

Real assets for J.P. Morgan’s JARA Trust correspond to the income-producing part of three categories: real estate; infrastructure and transportation.

If we think about these real assets on a spectrum, core is at the high-quality end of the spectrum; so real assets that are in excellent locations, facing off against high-calibre counterparties. The majority of the return for these types of assets should be derived from income. Indeed, about two-thirds plus of the return profile should be income. 

It is not just the level of income that is important; it is also the predictability of that income. So it has to be high quality income, often coming from contracted sources.

In the context of real estate, this would be a New York office building which has got Amazon as a tenant. You are not going to buy that building and expect it to double in value, but you have a pretty good tenant you expect to pay you on time.  

At the other end of the spectrum, you have opportunistic real assets.

An example of that within real estate would be buying land, whereby you build a second-tier city on it and hope to sell it at a profit.

This approach focuses much more on capital appreciation, which is a much higher risk.

There is no right or wrong way to play real assets. At different times in the cycle, different ones will be more appropriate for investors’ portfolios.  

Real estate opportunitiesIn terms of real estate, the focus is on core key markets. In the US, these include gateway cities such as New York, San Francisco and Chicago, whereas the definition is more complex in Asia.

Qualification as a core market requires: liquidity; the right

Keeping it realPhil Waller explains the thinking behind core real assets and what it means for investing in real estate, infrastructure and transportation

regulatory framework; and protection of ownership. For J.P. Morgan Asset Management that narrows the Asia Pacific region down to eight countries – including Japan, Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Taiwan and South Korea – and 15 cities where we see that core return profile. However, with a developing region, more and more markets are more likely to open up to investors over time.  

In addition, the US and the

Asia Pacific side complement each other. The US is very developed real estate market; Asia, a much newer market. While Asia Pacific is now the largest real estate market globally; larger than Europe and the US, it has the largest investor underweight. This points to a rising tide of opportunities ahead. 

Scale is also relevant. In real estate, larger properties tend to outperform, particularly on a

volatility basis, as they attract more significant, higher quality counterparties that tend to pay on time. Also, larger tenants find it more difficult to move, and therefore your releasing risk is quite significantly reduced by playing in this part of the spectrum.  

Infrastructure focus on mid-marketThere has been a lot of capital flow into the infrastructure space over the last 10 years or so, and long-term projections of infrastructure look very good. Yet while there is a lot of spending that needs to happen, care needs to be taken on chasing trophy assets. A more mid-market approach, with a preference for bolt-on acquisitions, is preferred. 

For example, by working with existing solar farm

operators to help them grow either organically or through acquisition, it allows them to write smaller cheque sizes and therefore avoid a lot of the competitive processes.

This approach helps deploy capital more predictably, because if you are chasing these trophy assets and you lose out on your bidding process that is a lot of capital that you have not been able to deploy in that period. But also, smaller ticket sizes hopefully allow more efficient spending over time to maintain that all-important yield.  

Transport behind the curveRight now we are probably seeing the best market dynamics on the transportation side. While a lot of capital has gone into real estate and infrastructure, transport is still five years behind in terms of its curve, particularly from a capital flow perspective.

There is a real need for capital in transport right now, which is driven by the fact that firstly the main capital providers in the space have always been the banks, particularly European banks. Now it is much more expensive for these banks to be equity owners of these assets, mainly driven by the fact that capital adequacy is much more punitive for them, so they have slowly withdrawn from the space.  

If the traditional capital providers are not there, that space needs to be filled, particularly as a lot of the fleet of the world is ageing. Currently, 42% of the world’s fleet is now over 20 years old, which with the average useful life cycle of transport assets 25 to 35 years, it means they soon need to be replaced.  

In many ways, the outlook is a very similar business model to real estate. In real estate, you own a building, and you put it on a lease, This can also happen in the transport space – you own a ship, and you put it on

long-term leases. And because of the need for capital, it can offer a yield north of 8% net. In the medium term, it is an attractive complement to the slightly lower-yielding infrastructure and real estate side of the market at present.  

 The outlook for returnsWe are obviously in a period of considerable uncertainty. but, looking ahead, while infrastructure is very much the golden child at the moment, we would expect all our core real assets to produce, whether it is real estate or transportation.

Over the last 10 years income of 4.5% to 5% yield, has been pretty much consistent quarter on quarter.

Having a predictable income stream is essential, particularly looking back to 2009/2010. During this period of negative capital values, there was still the ability to derive a positive return from that asset class because of the consistent income stream coming through.  

Often we think about the key risk for real assets as being something of a local risk: that can be political; it can be jurisdictional; it can be a range of different things.

While taking a global investment approach can help diversify such risks, the predictability of income coming through is also a critical risk factor in our opinion, and of vital importance when we consider investing in real assets. 

That said, all sectors, real assets included, are now facing enormous challenges as covid-19 spreads globally. While it may be some time before we see the equity markets recover with any level of consistency, by sticking to the core principles of investing in real core assets – focusing on income; high-quality locations and counterparties – we can hopefully enjoy a more predictable return to normality when it eventually arrives.

T he world, or the decade so far, has certainly had to cope with a lot.

We have seen political unrest between the US and Iran, continuing Brexit disruption in Europe, devastating fires in Australia, floods in the UK and now the global coronavirus pandemic. 

So what is an investor to do? Based on my 30 years as a fund manager and having faith in a long-established investment process, I believe it is a case of keeping calm and carry on.  

While there is continued uncertainty over both the short- and long-term impact of coronavirus on the global economy and business, for investors who can still take a long term view of the situation, assessing the fundamentals can help give perspective to the situation. 

In this respect, the investment trust structure has several advantages. Alongside gearing and revenue reserves, there is the fixed capital structure that is very much an aligned long-term view. There is no distraction from money in, money out; there is the ability to overwrite stocks within the portfolio; write covered calls to generate extra income; or gain overseas exposure when, in each case, the environment is right. 

Inefficiency provides opportunitiesUnderpinning all of this is the belief that markets are inefficient and that inefficiency provides opportunities. So taking advantage of any adverse sentiment to buy out-of-favour stocks by focusing on the long-term fundamentals.  

Idea generation is all about trying to spot opportunities when they present themselves; it is understanding the universe you are looking at; and it is trying to see why a stock might be out of favour – asking whether that is an opportunity or is it reflecting the fundamentals?  

Keep calm and carry on

As uncertainty prevails, Sue Noffke explains why investors should now focus on fundamentals and process

Focus on key investment driversIn terms of key drivers, accounting is vital. Accounting helps avoid the blow-ups by paying attention to cash flow and the balance sheet; ensuring diversification across the value and growth spectrum; and having a valuation discipline. It is about assessing peers, looking at history and asking lots of questions about whether it is different this time.  

Strategic positioning is probably one of the critical differentiators for stock performance; so looking at the sustainability of the profits of a business, looking at the threats from the disruption to stress test holdings and new ideas. Management and governance are also vital to assure the delivery on strategy and to make sure that shareholders benefit from that.  

There are also macroeconomic driver considerations. These considerations help understand and inform the cyclicality, as well as the upsides and downsides in an absolute sense, to changes in the macro drivers. 

When to sellSometimes a change in the investment thesis is beyond your ability to change or control, in which case you have to sell and move on. Sometimes it is much more about a judgement on the valuation.

It might be high because it is anticipating a significant upswing, in which case can you test and verify that?

Can fundamentals back the valuation or has it just been caught up in a wave of some flavour of the month? If so, is that something you want to run

with? Other red flags

include signs of deterioration. Sometimes frequent or expensive acquisitions, especially when it is not part of the stated business model, can be hiding some level of decline. Other signs include a deterioration in

ESG performance; failure to respond to disruption; and questions on the sustainability of the dividend.

For an income fund, the dividend is key. There is no point in just selling when it is already discounted in the price as you have suffered the capital deterioration. It is much more about stress testing how sustainable that dividend is going forward; not just this year or this half-year, but in

the next couple of years.  

Weaker and deteriorating balance sheets are also a sign because the combination of operational and financial leverage can be toxic, particularly in a downturn. And that’s the critical reminder that long investment

experience in markets tends to leave you with. 

Looking aheadClearly, the coronavirus pandemic is going to have an impact on stock markets and investment performance going forward.

Questions we now need to ask are to what level it will impact

on trade, and to what extent the market is going to look through that? How will the impact of liquidity support from central banks play out?

It is also essential to take into account that the UK equity market is not all about the UK economy, so it does matter what international markets are doing. All of these things are issues to think about and to explore.  

As we move forward, diversification by style certainly gives opportunities to perform in several different market opportunities. So holding the right balance of value and growth stocks gives the flexibility to pick up on different market environments and opportunities. 

Revenue reserves is a further tool for investment trusts, particularly those that have an income focus. In terms of Schroder Income Growth, the fund has been able to maintain dividend growth at times when dividend growth has been very hard to come by within the market.

While we have not been afraid to dip into revenue reserves to ensure continued dividend growth to investors, we have also repaired and rebuilt. So a “fix the roof while the sun is shining” approach to prepare for whatever the market throws at you in the future. Hopefully, these preparations will now help sustain and support as we move forward.

Despite the uncertain investment environment ahead, investment trusts must continue to provide investors with capital growth and grow income in real terms.

By using a combination of experience and focusing on investment process and fundamentals, we hope to continue to do that, regardless of whatever environment we happen to be operating in the world.

Sue Noffke, is a manager of the Schroder Income Growth fund and head of UK Equities at Schroders.

What Investmentwww.whatinvestment.co.uk FOR A WEALTHIER FUTURE Issue 421 March 2018 £4.50

Investment performance is shown after charges have been deducted. This helps to provide an accurate picture for investors by showing the return they would have achieved if they had been invested. Some funds have hefty charges, which act as a drag on their overall performance, and this is reflected in the performance data.

The performance data in What Investment is produced by Morningstar, which is a global investment research firm. This data shows how funds have performed over six months, one year and three years. It is sensible to look at performance over different time periods and by using these figures investors may be able to spot any short-term trends, which could act as a buying opportunity, an indication to sell or a time to rebalance a portfolio. Rebalancing is where profits are taken from funds which have performed well and reinvested in those which have under-performed.

A single priced fund is usually bought and sold at the same price, which reflects the mid-point of the buying and selling price of the fund’s assets.

The information shows how much a hypothetical £100 would be worth if it was invested in the fund over the specified time period. While investors are unlikely to hold just £100 in a fund, this approach can help to bring the performance to life more than showing a percentage return.

The performance is shown assuming that all income generated, such as dividends and interest, is reinvested. This puts income-generating and growth funds on an equal footing and makes total return comparisons much easier than by assuming income is paid out.

The performance is also shown on a bid-to-bid basis. Funds can either be single or dual priced.

Dual priced funds have two prices; the price at which the fund units are bought, called the offer price, and the price at which they are sold, called the bid price. The offer price is higher than the bid price, with the difference effectively being an initial charge which new investors pay.

By showing performance data on a bid-to-bid basis, it is assumed that there is no initial charge and, while this may not be realistic for new investors, it does provide a fair comparison between single and dual priced funds.

So, by showing performance over different timescales, with charges included and income reinvested, using bid-to-bid pricing, investors will have information on a like-for-like basis on which to compare all investment funds

Analysis>|

I nvestments in alternative investments such as rare coins, classic cars, art and fine

wine have always offered a way to combine a collector’s passion with the potential for profit.

Since the financial crisis, investors have increasingly looked to assets which have intrinsic value as a way to diversify a portfolio of traditional stocks and shares, as well as an alternative to cash holdings in a persistently low-interest-rate environment. 

It is a strategy that has not disappointed in the long term. According to the Coutts Passion Index, so-called ‘passion’ assets have risen by 90.4% at an average of 5.1% per year since the Index began in 2005. Based on the latest Coutts Passion Index 2019 (Figure 1), classic cars have been the best passion investment performer yielding a return of 245.8% since 2005, followed by coins (228.8%) and fine wine (198.0%).

Indeed, for those who can tell their Chateau Latour from a Chateauneuf-du-Pape, there have been some excellent, full-bodied performances in the fine

wine investment market over the medium to long-term.

According to Liv-Ex, which compiles and tracks fine wine prices around the world, the Fine Wine 1000 Index has outperformed all major indices except for the Nasdaq, on a cumulative basis since 2004 to date (Figure 2). Similarly, over five years to January 2020, the Index has provided decent returns of 42.8% against a 14.9% return achieved by the FTSE 100.

Navigating uncertaintyIn the short term, however, performance has been lacklustre.

According to the 2020 Fine Wine Investment Outlook from Cult Wines, 2019 has proven to be a challenging year for the sector, with the majority of Liv-ex indices suffering a downturn.

Tom Gearing, managing director and co-founder of Cult Wines puts poor performance down to geopolitical and economic uncertainty fuelled by US-China trade tensions, US tariffs and an impending Brexit weakening investor

confidence over the year. Other factors include the divergence in regional performance in the fine wine market.

So what is 2020 likely to bring for fine wine investment enthusiasts? Looking ahead, Gearing believes the uncertain macroeconomic backdrop will continue to weigh on investor sentiment, and regional performance factors will persist.

In this climate, he believes both undervalued regions and those showing resilience in times of uncertainty should be the focal point for investors in 2020.

Take a regional focusJust as in a traditional portfolio, diversification has a critical role to play when looking to invest in fine wines. Taking a regional approach that factors in quality and value is also key.

“Going into 2020, we recommend an overweight stance to defensive and high-quality regions such as Italy and Champagne; a selective, relative value-based approach to more traditional investment regions such as Bordeaux and Burgundy; and an opportunistic allocation to emerging and better-valued regions such as Rhone, Chile, Argentina and Spain,” said Gearing.

In terms of Italian vintages in 2020, the outlook remains positive, according to the report: “Super Tuscans which have provided steady returns and stability, as well as high-quality Barolo and Barbaresco should be well represented within a diversified wine portfolio.”

 An equally positive outlook applies to the Champagne region where the prices of back vintages mainly appreciate over time, irrespective of vintage variation or quality.

In addition: “Super-premium brands have reported an increase in global sales, and, with its accessible prices and improved market exposure, grower Champagne is now attracting new investors.” 

Nor should investors ignore the potential of the Rhone region where investors and their advisers are becoming increasingly familiar with the region’s producers and high-quality vintages capable of yielding high profits.

A noteworthy example, according to the report, is the Château Rayas, Chateauneuf-du-Pape 2005, which priced at £2,400 per case just ten years ago now trades at £9,000 per case, representing a 275% return.

“As an emerging investment region with a performance less correlated with the wider fine wine market, adding Rhone to a portfolio is expected to provide investors with superior, risk-adjusted returns and a strong opportunity for capital appreciation,” noted the report.

 In contrast, two regions the report highlighted as under-performers are Burgundy and Bordeaux. Bordeaux, in particular, has shown itself to be sensitive to the broader market slowdown. However, prime vintages such as 2005, 2009 and 2010 have the potential to deliver decent risk-adjusted returns over the coming months.

“Liquidity, brand, quality and robust overseas demand driven largely by Asia further support the region’s presence in the savvy investor’s portfolio.”

As for the Burgundy region, ongoing demand and limited production mean Burgundy remains a reliable source of return, suggested the report.

Non-traditional asset, traditional approachAs investors increasingly seek out non-traditional asset classes to supplement their portfolio, the fine wine investment market offers potential both as a traditional asset class diversifier as well as scope for profit. But without specific knowledge and experience, it can be a complex market to navigate, particularly in the short term.

As with any asset, the fundamental rules of investing apply with attention to due diligence, volatility, risk and a long term outlook vital.

>| The Last Word | Peter Elston

No health without wealthPeter Elston is concerned that policymakers tackling coronavirus are underestimating the risk of a depression

While it is essential that we protect the integrity of health services, it is equally important that we stop what will undoubtedly be severe recessions for many countries turning into a global economic depression. I fear policymakers are underestimating the risk of the latter, and I therefore worry that financial markets, as well as societies more broadly, remain extremely vulnerable.

My concern is twofold.The first relates to human

beings not generally being able to grasp the extent to which conditions around them can in an instant deteriorate rapidly. Our brains think ‘linearly’, meaning that in our daily lives we see the world progressing in a ‘straight line’ fashion – or arithmetically – with one day passing after another, one meal after another etc. Much of the world, however, does not work that way. Populations and bushfires grow exponentially – or geometrically – not linearly. Interest on bank accounts gets compounded.

A tale to illustrate the power of compounding goes like this. Wishing to thank the inventor of chess for his wonderful new game, the emperor of India asks him to name his reward. The man replies that his wishes are simple and that he would like one grain of rice on the first square of the board, two on the second, four on the third and so forth for all 64 squares. The emperor gladly agrees, until he realises that he owes the man 18 billion billion grains of rice.

I realise that for many, life has become extremely difficult in recent weeks. However, there are also many for whom it has been bearable. The temptation may be to think that this can continue, and thus to remain unaware that a tipping point could be reached, perhaps as soon as tomorrow.

 Governments around the world have been ramping up their net borrowing, both to finance the

Mark Woolhouse, professor of infectious disease epidemiology at the University of Edinburgh, is a supporter of ‘enhanced shielding’. “Very crudely, for 80% of us who are not vulnerable this is a nasty virus, it is certainly a significant health problem, but it would not overwhelm the healthcare system and it would not lock down society”, he told the

BBC in April.

Playing politicsWhich brings me to my second concern, the politicisation of decision making.

While lifting lockdowns for low risk individuals while applying an ‘enhanced shielding’ approach for the

vulnerable may be the best way to avoid a depression, it may not be the one governments choose, at least not as soon as they should.

Mortality rates for those in younger age groups and with no underlying health conditions are low, but not zero. Governments will want to avoid newspaper headlines blaming them for even one death that would result from them having lifted lockdowns; the temptation to wait a bit longer would be great.

Most governments have been ignoring for years

warnings about the risk of pandemics such as the

current one. It would be unforgiveable if they compounded the mistake of not being cautious enough before this

crisis by being too cautious now.

Of course, we must protect the vulnerable,

both for their own sake and to prevent health

services being overwhelmed. If the world were allowed to slip into economic depression, however, we can kiss our health services goodbye. The same goes for financial markets.

Peter Elston is the former chief investment officer of Seneca Investment Managers.

rise in spending relating to, say, private sector employee furlough programs, or to fill holes left by lower tax revenues. Thus far, faith that governments can honour these debts down the road has been maintained, with short- and long-term bond yields remaining close to the lows reached in March.

It would be foolish in the circumstances to think of this confidence as being anything other than fickle – history is littered with collapsed ‘safe haven’ bond markets and the associated problems of high inflation and depressed economic growth. It is essential therefore that we get people back to work and spending again without, of course, putting health services at risk.

We can do this through ‘enhanced shielding’, in which lockdowns are lifted for low risk groups – while keeping measures in place to limit transmission – but kept in place for the vulnerable, until such time as a treatment or vaccine is available that is.
