Statistieken	3 jaar	5 jaar
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.	0.75	1.14
Informatieratio 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.	-0.63	0.25
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.	0.82	0.07
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..	-0.19	0.29
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.	0.92	0.92
Standaarddeviatie 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).	3.65	6.11
Max. maandelijkse winst (%) The maximum (i.e. highest) absolute positive monthly performance in the underlying period.	3.77	5.19
Max. maandelijks verlies (%) The maximum (i.e. highest) absolute negative monthly performance in the underlying period.	-1.79	-5.87

Marktontwikkeling

Per 31-07-2026

In July, high yield OAS widened by 10 bps to 286, and YTW widened 30 bps to 7.11%. The Iran ceasefire collapsed in early July as renewed US-Iran strikes forced tankers to turn around in the Strait of Hormuz, sending Brent crude surging more than 20% over the month to settle near USD 88/bbl – erasing much of June's relief. The US labor market softened further, with June payrolls at just +57k (vs 110k consensus) and prior months revised down a combined 74k, though unemployment ticked down to 4.2% on a falling participation rate. The FOMC held rates at 3.50–3.75% with three dissents in favor of a hike, and rates volatility was meaningful through the month as markets repriced the path of policy in both directions. In Europe, the ECB held at 2.25% after June's hike but Lagarde signaled that a September increase was likely; the July flash CPI ticked up to 2.9% (from 2.8%) with core rising to 2.5%, reinforcing the case for further tightening. Gross new issuance (USD) totaled USD 18 bn over the month, while the HY bonds default rate ticked up to 2.77%.

Based on transaction prices, the fund's return was -0.25%. Both negative excess returns and underlying rates widening contributed to the negative total return over the month, as the 5-year US yield settled 20 bps wider at 4.45%. The HY benchmark returned -0.43% over the month, while the portfolio outperformed by 26 bps. Issuer selection was positive, adding 25 bps to performance, while beta positioning contribution was 1 bps. Euro-denominated bonds outperformed on a risk adjusted basis, particularly the higher quality segment, benefiting the portfolio. From a sector perspective, underweight in the communications consumer cyclical sectors added 11 and 4 bps, respectively, whereas underweight in the other industrial and overweight in the energy sectors detracted 1 and 1 bps, respectively. Underweight in Virgin Media added 4 bps, as concerns were increasing over the highly leveraged capital structure without a clear deleveraging path. Underweight in ION Platforms detracted 2 bps, as the bonds rallied after better-than-expected Q2 earnings, rebounding after the software sell-off.

Global high yield enters 2026Q3 with valuations still tight, despite an increasingly complex macro backdrop. The Iran ceasefire and falling oil prices, together with signs of a cooling US labor market, should help contain inflation and reduce the need for further hikes from both the Fed and ECB. Geopolitical risk hasn't disappeared, however. While the immediate Gulf threat has diminished, the Russia-Ukraine conflict has entered a more unpredictable phase, and although markets have largely shrugged this off, it raises the risk of tail events and volatility spikes. Meanwhile, the AI investment cycle continues unabated, driving strong issuance across credit markets, including a growing number of data center-related HY transactions, with investor demand comfortably absorbing supply so far. Dispersion remains elevated: most issuers trade well inside long-term averages, while a smaller group widens materially on company-specific concerns, refinancing risk or structural disruption. We remain cautious, emphasizing quality, resilience and downside protection, while avoiding areas where spreads offer insufficient compensation for the macro and geopolitical risks at hand.
