Positive data on the jobs front – American employers added 312,000 jobs to the payroll in December – sent stock markets soaring following a turbulent fourth quarter. The gains wiped out almost all of last month’s losses. Investors were also buoyed by assurances from the chairman of the central bank – Jerome Powell – that the Federal Reserve would be “patient” with interest-rate rises, softening his earlier stance. However, it wasn’t all good news. The International Monetary Fund (IMF) cautioned that the pace of global expansion is weakening at a rate that is somewhat faster than expected. The world’s economy is still forecast to grow by 3.6% next year, although downside risks are rising, in part because of the trade tensions and Brexit uncertainty.

Sustainability Themed Fund |
The fund can engage in currency hedging transactions. Typically currency hedging is not applied.
In principle the fund distributes dividend four times a year. The fund's policy aims at realizing as the maximum possible capital growth within the pre-set risk limits. A high dividend return is therefore not a separate objective.
For Robeco Global Consumer Trends Equities, we combine fundamental analysis with proprietary Robeco quantitative models and sustainability data from RobecoSAM to come to a portfolio of investment ideas of 50–70 companies.
Allocation to long-term growth trends offer possibilities of outperforming the broader market over a 3-5 year investment horizon. This trend fund invests in companies in consumer-related industries worldwide that benefit most from the selected long-term trends. Global population growth, urbanization, higher household incomes, technological changes and growth in emerging markets are the main drivers for our trend strategies. The fund managers select the companies that have as pure as possible exposure to the selected trends and themes. Proprietary valuation models are used to select stocks with good earnings prospects and a reasonable valuation. Companies are individually assessed on the basis of in-depth discussions with corporate management and consultations with internal and external analysts. This Sub-fund may invest in China A-shares via the QFII and/or a Stock Connect Programme which may entail additional clearing and settlement, regulatory, operational and counterparty risks.
Risk management is fully integrated into the investment process to ensure that positions always meet predefined guidelines.
Macroeconomic data continues to point to solid growth for the global economy. The Federal Reserve has steadily raised interest rates but seems to be patient with regard to further increases, taking into account the overall growth of the economy. In Europe, economic momentum remains slow and the stimulus program has ended, although interest rates remain near the zero lower bound. Emerging markets continue to show higher growth, although the market remains concerned about a slowdown in China.
