    Trade wars and the desynchronisation of global economic growth Inflation and economic growth continue to be the two main drivers of policymaking for the worlds major central banks. The level of inflation and central bank interest rate decisions will determine the global economys performance during the years to come.

    Its evident that the global economy is in better condition than during previous years, however the synchronised global growth that investors were previously expecting could disappoint. This is due to emerging trade barriers and more protectionist policies in the form of higher taxes on imports that may drag on global growth. This has caused the worlds major central banks to take different economic outlooks, in turn causing monetary policy divergence.

    Some central banks are reducing ultra-accommodative policies and are stepping back from global bond markets by reducing asset purchases, reducing the size of their balance sheets and normalising interest rates. Other central banks are more cautious and are willing to continue with easy monetary policies, prolonged ultra-low interest rates and Quantitative Easing programmes.

    The US Federal Reserve (Fed) has raised interest rates twice this year and it expects two more rate increases, for a total of four rate hikes during 2018. The Fed is expected to continue its gradual interest rate tightening for the next 18 months. This has been influenced by the strong US economy that continues to outperform global growth, accompanied by a persistently falling unemployment rate and fiscal stimulus. Simultaneously, the Fed is continuously reducing the size of its balance sheet. The Fed has recently adjusted its inflation expectations upwards to 2% from the previous forecast of 1.9% for 2018 as there are potential inflationary risks.

    Likewise, the Bank of England has a more optimistic outlook for economic growth in the future. BoE hiked its reference rate to 0.75% and indicated more interest hikes to come. The inflation target of 2% is expected to be met later than previously anticipated, by 2020.

    In contrast, the European Central Bank (ECB) doesnt expect to raise its reference interest rate until mid-2019, however, it will reduce its asset purchases by the end of 2018, subject to economic developments. Additionally, the ECBs economic growth forecast has been revised down. This is mainly due to the introduction by the US of steel and aluminium tariffs against Europe. The ECB has increased its inflation forecast to 1.7% from 1.4% for both 2018 and 2019, which was mainly driven by strong energy prices.

    Similarly, the Bank of Japan (BoJ) has not made any changes to monetary policy. Despite a solid economic recovery, inflation remains weak in Japan and below its 2% target. The BoJ maintained its target yield around the 10 year government bond rate of 0%. However, it increased flexibility and explained that the yields may move depending on developments in economic activity and prices. It also maintained asset purchases.

    Domestically, the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) doesnt anticipate an interest rate increase anytime soon. Subdued wages growth is keeping inflation low for a prolonged period. The RBA's central scenario is for the Australian economy to grow more strongly this and next year with the unemployment rate trending lower. Future monetary policy decisions will be determined by the speed of increases in the employment rate, income growth and having inflation around the midpoint of the target range of 2% to 3% on a sustained basis. The RBA expects inflation to increase further to be close to 2.25% in 2020. In terms of the financial risks facing the economy, the RBA will continue to keep a close eye on the housing market, housing finance and the impact of changes in dwelling prices on consumption.

    While the RBA may have rates on hold, local banks and Authorised Deposit-taking Institutions have been facing increased funding costs internationally since the first quarter of 2018. As a result, banks have been sourcing more of their funding requirements at a premium in Australia, leading to higher bank bill rates for local cash holders.

    IOOF Investments Snapshot | 30 June 2018

    Outlook for investorsIn summary, despite rising energy prices and a trade war that could eventually produce higher inflation, we believe income growth in most economies will continue to be subdued and therefore inflation will continue to be controlled. Conversely, for economies such as the US, where the economy is growing above trend and inflation is already trending higher driven by wage growth, we expect central banks to continue their gradual interest rate hikes. If inflation starts moving faster over central banks targets it may eventually trigger faster interest rate hikes. However, inflation is still currently running slightly below the Fed's target, measured by the price index for personal consumption expenditures.

    With a trade war threatening the performance of the global economy, the reduction in the size of central bank balance sheets, and cash rate normalisation in some of the main economies, defensiveness, flexibility and diversification provide the best positioning.

    In an increasing interest rate environment, there are different ways to protect fixed income portfolios from mark-to-market capital losses caused by interest rate increases. One strategy is to invest in short duration assets, another is to invest in fixed income Floating Rate Notes (FRN). These allow investors to adjust their income stream to receive higher interest, as the coupon payments are variable and indexed to the interest rate market and its movements. FRNs have a very low sensitivity to interest rate changes and have very low duration. Another option is to increase cash holdings. Cash contributes to portfolio construction as it offers flexibility for times when superior risk/reward investment opportunities arise.

    IOOF trustsThe IOOF MultiMix Cash Enhanced Trust and the IOOF Cash Management Trust are fully diversified and defensively positioned with high-quality holdings designed to preserve capital. These trusts continue to have exposure to money market holdings and have participated in recent yield enhancements and higher margins paid by banks for short-term funding.

    These trusts have outperformed the Bloomberg AusBond Bank Bill Index benchmark and the RBA cash rate over all periods. During the 12 months to 30 June 2018, the IOOF MultiMix Cash Enhanced Trust returned 2.54% and the IOOF Cash Management Trust returned 2.19% before fees, this compares favourably to the benchmark return of 1.78%, with the Trusts outperforming by 76 basis points and 41 basis points respectively.

    Strategic tilting update

    Cash and fixed interest

    Position

    For both MultiMix and MultiSeries, there is an overweight to cash/short duration strategies, underweight to fixed interest.

    Rationale

    Our view is that Australian and US Government bond yields are very expensive. The US 10 year Government bond yield as at end of June was 2.85%, up from 2.74% at the end of March. We believe this may be the end of the bull market in fixed interest.

    Current status

    Since inception, the tilt to cash has underperformed as global bonds continue to produce positive returns. The underperformance, however, is somewhat mitigated by strong performance from the underlying cash managers, and strong returns from the IOOF Income Trust.

    For MultiMix over the June quarter, the IOOF Income Trust returned 1.10% versus the diversified fixed interest strategic benchmark return of 0.48%.

    For MultiSeries over the June quarter, the Metrics Credit Partners Diversified Australian Senior Loan Fund returned 1.32% and the Janus Henderson Income Fund returned 0.87% versus the MultiSeries Fixed Income strategic benchmark return of 0.48%.

    International shares

    Position

    For MultiMix, tilt towards unhedged international shares from Australian shares. Tilt only in place for IOOF MultiMix Growth Trust, and has been reduced for IOOF MultiMix Balanced Growth Trust.

    Rationale

    While both Australian and international shares looked cheap on various valuation metrics, we believed international shares showed better value, particularly in the US. In addition, the high Australian dollar made investing offshore more attractive. Unhedged international equities also provides for a natural hedge. If equity markets fall, the Australian dollar tends to fall with it (as it is considered a risk asset), thus providing a hedge to investors.

    Current status

    Since inception, the tilt to unhedged international shares has outperformed due to both the international equities market outperforming the Australian equities market, and a sharp decline in the Australian dollar.

    For the June quarter, the unhedged international shares benchmark underperformed the Australian shares benchmark by -4.09% (4.27% versus 8.36%).

    Currency

    Position

    For MultiMix, the hedged benchmark remains at 10% of the developed equities portfolio versus the strategic benchmark of 50%. For MultiSeries, the hedged benchmark is at 35% versus the strategic benchmark of 50%.

    Rationale

    The key reasons for this continued position are:

    Australian cash rate no longer supportive v USD.

    Australian economy lagging moderating housing market weighing on consumers, household gearing high, tightening consumer credit availability, wages flat.

    Impact on trade tensions between China and US problematic for Australia.

    Current status

    For the June quarter, the unhedged developed international shares benchmark outperformed the hedged developed international shares benchmark by 1.91% (5.53% versus 3.62%).

  • Notes to the Snapshot

    1. The actual management costs (and total management costs) are subject to change from time to time and may vary from the estimated management costs detailed in the applicable PDS depending on changes to the Trusts underlying assets, changes to underlying investment managers and their fees, if any performance-related fees are incurred (where applicable) and where any unusual or non-recurrent expenses are incurred or changes to other related expenses.

    2. Performance is net of management costs and expenses. Performance is based on exit price to exit price for the period and assumes that all distributions are reinvested. Management costs and other expenses are accounted for in the exit price. Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future performance. Full details of the benchmarks used are provided in the relevant Trusts PDS.

    3 Allocations may not sum to 100% due to rounding.
