Performance explanation
{{'fund.detail.general.perDate' | labelize:[ fundDate(fund.fundInvestmentExplanations.date,'llll') ]}}Based on transaction prices, the fund's return was 1.88%. June was again a good month for Multi Asset Income. In the second quarter, the fund delivered a sizeable positive performance and by now it has almost recouped all of the losses it suffered in the first quarter. The exposure of the fund continues to be geared towards high yield and emerging market debt. This month we also added exposure to commodities to the portfolio, we think this asset has lagged the improvement we are witnessing in the economy. Within fixed income the allocation to Robeco Credit Income was the best performing asset and within equities Robeco Sustainable Stars was the best performer.

Market development
{{'fund.detail.general.perDate' | labelize:[ fundDate(fund.fundInvestmentExplanations.date,'llll') ]}}In June, the impact of the easing of lockdown measures started to become visible. The gradual recovery of economic activity started to show in the economic numbers. A wide spectrum of data started to handsomely beat consensus expectations. A sharp increase in global car sales and strong retail sales show that consumers are willing to spend. While encouraging, it must be stressed that uncertainty remains. Capacity utilization rates are near cyclical lows. Employment data remain inconclusive. A positive is that on both sides of the Atlantic consumer and producer confidence is improving. A major risk for the recovery remains the pandemic. Financial markets remain torn between an improving economic backdrop and news on the virus outbreak. Both central banks and governments continued to provide support and as such remain an important backstop. Almost all major asset classes delivered positive returns this month. The exception was hard currency emerging market debt. The best-performing asset classes were emerging market equities and commodities. Oil in particular had a good month.

Expectation of fund manager
{{'fund.detail.general.perDate' | labelize:[ fundDate(fund.fundFacts.date,'llll') ]}}In our view, the economic recovery will continue in the second half of 2020, but will be more uneven. The tread of a second wave of Covid-19 infections in the absence of a vaccine, politicized decision-making on sizeable fiscal stimulus packages, and a desperate incumbent US President Trump fighting to be re-elected. Are in our view, sufficient reasons for a turbulent recovery phase. The multi-asset portfolios are skewed towards assets that are one way or the other supported by central banks and offer a decent yield. As such high-quality corporate bonds and high yield are preferred. In addition, we continue to allocate asset classes that are still attractively valued and have not yet fully priced in the recovery, like commodities. We are more cautious with regard to risky assets that have fully discounted a V-shaped economic recovery. That is why we are tactically underweight equities. Major risks to our current position are a better-than-expected economic recovery and strong continued positive market sentiment towards risk-bearing assets.
