Statistics	3 years	5 Years
Tracking error ex-post (%) The ex-post tracking error is defined as the volatility of the fund's achieved excess return over the index return. In fund management, most managers are subject to an ex-ante (pre-determined) tracking error, which defines the extent of the additional risk they may take when aspiring to outperform the fund's benchmark. The ex-post tracking error explains the distribution of past fund performances compared to those of its underlying benchmark. With a higher tracking error, the fund's returns deviate more from its index's returns, hence there is a greater chance that the fund may outperform. The wider the spread of returns relative to the benchmark, the more "actively" a fund has been managed. In contrast, a low tracking error indicates more "passive" management.	9.13	-
Information ratio This ratio serves to evaluate the quality of the excess return a fund manager has achieved because it takes the active risk involved into account. The information ratio is defined as the excess return over the benchmark return divided by the fund's tracking error. The higher the information ratio, the better. For example, a fund with a tracking error of 4% and an excess return of 2% over benchmark has an information ratio of 0.5, which is quite good.	-1.68	-
Sharpe ratio This ratio measures the risk-adjusted performance and allows the performance quality of different investments to be compared. It is calculated by subtracting the risk-free rate from the fund's returns and dividing the result by the fund's standard deviation (risk). So the Sharpe ratio tells us whether a fund's returns are the result of smart investment decisions or stem from taking extra risk. The higher the ratio, the better, meaning that a greater return is achieved per unit of risk. This ratio is named after its inventor, Nobel Laureate, William Sharpe.	0.11	-
Alpha (%) Alpha measures the difference between a portfolio's actual return and its expected performance, given the level of risk, compared to the benchmark. A positive alpha figure indicates that the fund has performed better than expected, given the level of risk. Beta is used to calculate the level of risk compared to the benchmark..	-9.93	-
Beta Beta is a measure of a portfolio's volatility, or systematic risk, in comparison to the benchmark. A beta of 1 indicates that the portfolio will move with the benchmark. A beta of less than 1 means that the portfolio will be less volatile than the benchmark. A beta of more than 1 indicates that the portfolio will be more volatile than the benchmark. For example, if a portfolio's beta is 1.2 it is theoretically 20% more volatile than the benchmark.	0.80	-
Standard deviation Standard deviation is a measure of the dispersion of a set of data from its mean. The more spread out the data is, the higher the deviation. In finance, standard deviation is applied to the annual rate of return of an investment to measure the investment's volatility (risk).	13.30	-
Max. monthly gain (%) The maximum (i.e. highest) absolute positive monthly performance in the underlying period.	9.55	-
Max. monthly loss (%) The maximum (i.e. highest) absolute negative monthly performance in the underlying period.	-6.39	-

Market development

Per 31-10-2025

In October, global markets continued to perform in a very resilient way against a challenging backdrop and in a historically difficult month. The performance was driven by a rather narrow set of stocks, mainly from the artificial intelligence and technology sectors. Consumption is moderating gradually and is generally holding up well. Some cracks are showing, however, in the US, where lower income consumers and younger people are getting more cautious. In October, a number of agreements between drug companies and the US government have been announced to bring American drug prices in line with the lowest paid by other developed nations. These first agreements served as a clearing event for biopharmaceutical companies as the impact appears quite manageable and concerns about more severe measures to lower drug prices had been weighing on the sector.

Performance explanation

Per 31-10-2025

Based on transaction prices, the fund's return was -0.61%. Thus, despite positive performance in the month, the performance of the Healthy Living Fund could not quite keep up with the broad global benchmark, which was driven by the ongoing outperformance of stocks related to technology and artificial intelligence. Two of the fund's four clusters generated positive returns. Healthcare Efficiency was the strongest performer, followed by Therapeutics. Healthy Nutrition and Healthy Lifestyle both delivered negative returns. At the individual stock level, the biggest positive contributors were the life science tools and analytics providers Thermo Fisher Scientific and Agilent. The agreement of Pfizer to lower drug prices in the US served as a clearing event for life science tools companies as well, which are depending on pharma company orders of equipment for running drug research and development. The largest negative contributor was the footwear company Deckers. Its stock price corrected in October after third-quarter results. The company announced guidance that raised questions about growth momentum of both brands and increasing competition for the HOKA brand in the Max cushion running shoe category.

Expectation of fund manager

The risks to economic growth have increased due to inflation, higher interest rates, geopolitical tensions and the economic imbalances in China. In addition, the tariff announcements by the new US president have created uncertainty in the business environment, which may reduce corporate investments and consumer confidence going forward. It will therefore be even more important to focus on solid business fundamentals, pricing power and quality. We remain constructive on the mid to long-term potential of the equity markets and are making use of current market conditions to further solidify our positions in companies that have very strong long-term business prospects. The pandemic has accelerated changes necessary to build more robust and sustainable economies. It has also made individuals more inclined to adopt a healthier lifestyle. The Healthy Living portfolio of sustainable companies is well positioned to benefit from these changes in the longer run.
