• Curve positioning had the largest negative impact on relative results. In contrast, duration positioning and sector/industry allocation made small positive contributions, while security selection had a neutral impact on a relative basis.
• The choice of issuers in the banking sector weighed on relative returns. Above-index holdings in Credit Suisse, Morgan Stanley, HSBC, SVB Financial and Royal Bank of Canada were among the largest detractors, as was a below-index exposure to Wells Fargo. However, above-index positions in Australia and New Zealand Banking Group and BPCE and a below-index holding in JPMorgan Chase were helpful.
• Security selection in the basic industry sector also detracted on a relative basis. An above-index holding in International Flavors and Fragrances was a key detractor here.
• Conversely, the choice of issuers and a below-index position in the consumer non-cyclical sector added relative value. In particular, a below-index exposure to AbbVie helped lift returns on a relative basis.
• The selection of issuers in the communications sector also buoyed relative results. A below-index holding in AT&T was among the largest contributors at an issuer level.

Historical Performance Commentary

Performance Commentary - January 31, 2023

• Over the month, Capital Group Global Corporate Bond Fund Hedged (AU) returned 3.5%1 before fees, while the index returned 3.2%2 . Net of fees the fund returned 3.5%3 . For the 12-month period, the fund returned -9.5%1 before fees, and -10.0% after fees3 , compared to the index’s return of -10.2%2 .
• Security selection contributed the most to relative results, with duration and curve positioning also helping, albeit to a lesser extent. Sector/industry positioning weighed on returns on a relative basis.
• Security selection in the banking sector added value on a relative basis. At an issuer level, overweight positions in HSBC, Credit Suisse, BNP Paribas, SVB Financial, Australia and New Zealand Banking Group, Intesa Sanpaolo and CaixaBank contributed the most, although underweight holdings in JPMorgan Chase, Goldman Sachs and Bank of America detracted, as did having no exposure to Citigroup and Barclays.
• The choice of issuers in the consumer cyclical sector also helped relative returns. In particular, an overweight holding in Stellantis Finance was beneficial.
• Conversely, the choice of issuers in the energy sector detracted from relative results. Not holding bonds issued by Energy Transfer proved costly, as did an overweight holding in bonds issued by ExxonMobil.
• Not holding Aroundtown weighed on relative results in the other investment-grade corporates sector. The portfolio’s holding of cash also dragged on relative returns given the rally in bond markets.

  • SMSF Mate is a unique website because it has ideas about how to approach SMSFs, insurance and other financial topics that come straight from first hand experience. It's much more useful than what you find on all the other financial websites that just offer generic info that you could easily get on the ATO's website. It's also nice to know there's no financial incentive behind the information, it's legitimately there to help people understand self-managed super funds and how to get the most out of them, not to get an affiliate commission from a broker or other financial services provider. The investment product information is also incredibly useful, I've never seen this kind of functionality on any other website that let's you look at such a wide range of products, sort by what info is most interesting or important to you, and subscribe to updates for different funds and financial products all in one place. Definitely worth checking out if you own or are considering an SMSF!
