Statistiken	3 Jahre	5 Jahre
Ex-post Tracking-Error (%) 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.	3.22	3.36
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.	-1.02	-0.50
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.	0.59	0.26
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..	-2.77	-1.29
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.	1.00	0.95
Standardabweichung 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).	14.11	16.04
Max. monatlicher Gewinn (%) The maximum (i.e. highest) absolute positive monthly performance in the underlying period.	10.30	10.30
Max. monatlicher Verlust (%) The maximum (i.e. highest) absolute negative monthly performance in the underlying period.	-10.74	-10.74

Marktentwicklungen

Per 30-06-2026

In June, the MSCI Europe extended its rally into a third consecutive month, gaining 3.0%. Having outperformed European equities over the previous two months, the MSCI World Index declined by 0.8%, while the S&P 500 Index in the US fell by more than 1%. Despite the weaker monthly performance, global and US equity markets outperformed European equities over the full second quarter, delivering their best quarterly performance since 2020Q4, when COVID-19 vaccines were approved. Driven by the easing of the Middle East conflict, sector leadership in Europe was relatively balanced and reflected a rotation into more cyclical and rate-sensitive areas. Travel & leisure was one of the best-performing subsectors and banks also performed well. Information technology, the best-performing sector in Europe, was led by semiconductor companies. At the bottom of the performance table was the energy sector, which suffered as crude oil prices retreated. The communication services sector also underperformed, weighed down by defensive telecommunications companies, where structural concerns around satellite competition further hampered sentiment.

Erläuterungen zur Wertentwicklung

Per 30-06-2026

Based on transaction prices, the fund's return was 1.16%. In the June bull market, the fund outperformed the MSCI Europe by 0.37%. Stock selection contributed positively, while asset allocation detracted from performance. The main contributing sectors were consumer discretionary, information technology and energy. The major detracting sectors were industrials, healthcare and utilities. In information technology, the two semiconductor equipment providers ASML and ASM continued to march higher, driven by AI-related optimism, and were among the top contributors during the month. The strong contribution from Erste Group Bank was supported by higher interest rates in Europe and analyst reports suggesting that the Austrian bank could increase its stake in Santander Bank Polska, of which it currently owns 49%. In industrials, the German defense company Hensoldt was the weakest performer amid a broad-based decline across the European defense sector. The weakness was driven by the ceasefire in the Middle East and a shift in German naval fleet orders. Rio Tinto also weighed on fund performance, with shares declining due to lower iron ore and copper prices.

Prognose des Fondsmanagements

Mathias Büeler CFA
Oliver Girakhou MBA

The fund's strategy aims to make investments in high-quality companies with sustainable, differentiated business models taking a full-cycle view. Given that approach, we'd expect the fund to show its full strength when returns of individual stocks start to materially differ due to less overall market support. The fund's positions tend to be less driven by assumptions on general market trends, but much more by company-specific qualities that are likely to endure in both positive and negative environments. Driven by expected business resilience and comparably moderate valuations, our key convictions can give some comfort in volatile times.
