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.	0.23	0.45
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.	1.90	1.25
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.	0.80	-0.20
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..	0.43	0.54
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.	0.99	0.99
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).	3.26	5.33

Marktontwikkeling

Per 30-06-2026

June 2026 proved (another) landmark month for European credit markets, with record levels of new bond issuance coming to the market. Year-to-date euro IG corporate bond issuance reached EUR 269 billion through the end of June, up 17.5% year-on-year. Sentiment in European IG credit improved markedly through the month. Investors unwound a USD 20 billion net short on the iTraxx Europe IG CDS index – built up as a geopolitical hedge – moving to an outright long position as prospects for a Middle East ceasefire improved. European credit spreads largely shrugged off a late-month sell-off in global technology equities. That said, spreads in the cash market were a bit weaker than in CDS markets, as cash spreads widened a bit in the second half of the month. The June FOMC meeting, the first under Fed Chair Kevin Warsh, struck a hawkish tone, as the statement was significantly shortened and forward guidance was removed. Moreover, Chair Warsh reiterated the committee's commitment to its price stability mandate multiple times during the press conference. In Europe, the ECB increased its deposit facility rate by 25 basis points to 2.25%, in line with market expectations.

Based on transaction prices, the fund's return was 0.40%. The portfolio posted a positive return in June, mostly driven by declining underlying government bond yields. Credit spreads tightened during the first weeks of the month, but widened in the last two weeks. The average index spread ended the month at 80 basis points, from 79 bps at the end of May. The spread performance of the corporate bond market was 0.06%, while the total return of the index was 0.44%. The portfolio performance was slightly better than that of the index. The beta positioning of the portfolio was just a little bit above neutral (1), meaning that there was a very small positive impact from the tightening of credit spreads. Issuer selection made a neutral contribution. Selection within and allocation to the banking and insurance sectors contributed positively to performance in June. The best-performing individual positions, on a risk-adjusted basis, were EPH Financing, Morocco and Carnival. Detractors from performance were MTR (new issue that widened after issuance), Oracle and Volkswagen.

Our base case remains an orderly, grinding widening in spreads as the market recalibrates to a less generous technical regime, rather than anything more dramatic. But starting valuations leave the asymmetry unattractive enough that we continue to run conservative beta across portfolios, and would rather be early reducing risk than late. This puts us at odds with more bullish calls for further tightening. We agree the near-term path of least resistance may be tighter, but being right about direction and wrong about asymmetry is an expensive combination in a limited-upside, large-downside asset class. We remain constructive on banking sector credit, where capital and asset quality metrics remain strong. Within non-financials, we are cautious and increasingly selective on technology and AI-adjacent credit. The strongest hyperscaler names offer some premium to current ratings; we would rather express conviction through those strongest balance sheets – while avoiding the weaker, more leveraged data-center and software adjacent names where the downside is asymmetric. We prefer defensively positioned sectors with durable demand and pricing power over cyclically exposed industrials.
