The Federal Reserve cut interest rates for the third time this year, reducing the benchmark rate by another quarter of a percentage point to a range of between 1.5% and 1.75%. Future reductions are on hold however, indicating a renewed belief in the strength of the economy. Official figures pegged the growth of the US economy at 1.9% in the third quarter, buoyed by robust consumer spending, although business investments remained weak. The S&P 500 Index rose by 2.0%. In Europe, the FTSE Eurotop 100 Index climbed 0.5% while the Japanese Topix Index surged 5.0% after good results from bellwethers like Sony. The MSCI World All Country Index (in EUR) rose 0.4% (2.7% in USD) last month.

Robeco Global Consumer Trends Equities integrates ESG factors into its investment process by analyzing the impact of financially material ESG factors to a company’s competitive position and value drivers. We believe that this enhances our ability to understand existing and potential (long-term) risks and opportunities of a company. The impact of material ESG factors can be positive or negative, reflecting risks or opportunities, that ensue from a company’s ESG analysis. If ESG risks and opportunities are significant, the ESG analysis could impact a stock’s fair value and the portfolio allocation decision. In addition to ESG integration, Robeco also has an exclusion policy and conducts proxy voting and engagement activities focused on specific themes, such as climate change, aiming to improve a company’s sustainability profile.
Allocation to long-term growth trends offer possibilities of outperforming the broader market over a 3-5 year investment horizon. This trend fund invests in companies in consumer-related industries worldwide that benefit most from the selected long-term trends. Global population growth, urbanization, higher household incomes, technological changes and growth in emerging markets are the main drivers for our trend strategies. The fund managers select the companies that have as pure as possible exposure to the selected trends and themes. Proprietary valuation models are used to select stocks with good earnings prospects and a reasonable valuation. Companies are individually assessed on the basis of in-depth discussions with corporate management and consultations with internal and external analysts. This Sub-fund may invest in China A-shares via the QFII and/or a Stock Connect Programme which may entail additional clearing and settlement, regulatory, operational and counterparty risks.
Risk management is fully integrated into the investment process to ensure that positions always meet predefined guidelines.
Macroeconomic data continues to point to relatively slow growth for the global economy. The Federal Reserve has cut interest rates and is monitoring economic data points closely, as the impact of the trade war on the overall health of the economy remains uncertain. In Europe, economic momentum remains slow and interest rates are negative in nearly all developed countries except the UK and the US. Emerging markets continue to show higher growth, although here too the market is concerned about the impact of the trade war on Chinese growth.
