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.	5.48	7.49
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.	-1.29	-1.23
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.	0.56	-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..	-6.43	-8.94
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.	1.05	1.16
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).	14.38	18.88
Max. maandelijkse winst (%) The maximum (i.e. highest) absolute positive monthly performance in the underlying period.	10.88	11.12

Marktontwikkeling

Per 30-06-2026

Equity markets largely looked through geopolitical tensions and higher inflation as investors remained focused on artificial intelligence beneficiaries and an improving earnings outlook. Global equities were volatile but resilient, with leadership broadening as defensive sectors such as healthcare, utilities and staples were in favor. Demand for AI infrastructure, memory, processors and cloud capacity continued to support strong performance in the semiconductor sector despite rising concerns around returns on AI-related capital expenditure. Macro developments were dominated by events in the Middle East. Oil prices initially rose on supply concerns but fully reversed their gains as tensions eased. Investors also focused on the Federal Reserve, with falling oil prices and a moderating labor market reducing expectations for further policy tightening. The MSCI All Country World Index (EUR) returned 1.2% in June. Robeco Global Consumer Trends slightly outperformed the reference index during the month.

Based on transaction prices, the fund's return was -0.89%. The Health & Hygiene and Experience Economy themes delivered a strong performance during the month, partially offset by weaker results within the AI Revolution theme. The latter lagged due to the weak performance of several large-cap technology companies. Health & Hygiene benefited from a broadening of market leadership beyond the AI-related hyperscalers. Investor participation expanded into sectors such as healthcare, industrials and consumer staples, reflecting growing confidence in the broader earnings outlook. Natera was a notable contributor following positive clinical, regulatory and reimbursement developments that strengthened expectations for future growth. Within Experience Economy, Take-Two Interactive performed strongly after announcing the start of Grand Theft Auto VI pre-orders, increasing investor confidence in the game's launch timing and commercial potential. The Next Generation Consumer theme underperformed, as concerns emerged around future consumption growth. In the US, disposable income growth weakened, while in China, subdued consumer confidence continued to weigh on spending, negatively affecting holdings such as Alibaba and BYD.

Given the uncertain macro and geopolitical climate, our quality growth style seems well suited for the current investment climate. We believe long-term investors should focus on high quality businesses with valuable intangible assets, high margins, and superior returns on capital. Companies with these traits have historically delivered above average returns while offering downside protection. These firms are also poised to deliver healthy revenue and earnings growth, and we expect them to generate attractive long-term returns as a result. We believe premium valuations for these businesses are justified given the quality of their business models, the high levels of earnings growth and the sustainability of their franchises.
