Commentary

Performance as at Q3 2024 - Over the month, markets were predominantly affected by the anticipation of, and result of, the Federal Reserve (Fed) interest rate decision. Despite the Fed cutting by 50bps, the effect on the broad credit market was more muted than many market participants expected. However, the effect on government bond yields was more pronounced as the market viewed the Fed decision to cut interest rates by 50bps (rather than 25bps) as a sign that the Fed was prepared to act decisively in order to support economic growth. This cut was also supported by better-than-expected jobless claims in the US, alongside an upward revision to real gross domestic income. The effect on UK credit was a small increase in credit spreads by approximately 5 basis points before falling back to pre-meeting levels. By contrast, global developed market government bond yields increased, with 10-year UK gilt yields up 24bps since the announcement. This performance was weaker than expected, which is attributed in part to concerns around the upcoming UK budget. Other technical factors also contributed to the weak performance, such as an increased insurance buyout leading to increased supply of UK government bonds.

Important Information

Some funds may invest in ‘underlying’ funds or other investment vehicles. The performance of our fund, compared to what it’s invested in won’t be exactly the same. That can be due to additional charges, cash management (needed to help people to enter and leave our fund when they want), tax and the timing of investments (this is known as a fund’s dealing cycle, it varies between managers and can be several days).

This factsheet is intended for the advisers of occupational pension schemes using Prudential group pension contracts and Prudential grouped personal pensions and Stakeholder pension contracts. its purpose is to provide an insight into how investment markets and funds have performed over the period and is provided for information only.

These risk ratings have been developed by Prudential to help provide an indication of a fund’s potential level of risk and reward based on the type of assets which may be held by the fund. Other companies may use different descriptions and as such these risk ratings should not be considered as generic across the fund management industry.

We regularly review our fund risk ratings, so they may change in the future. If, in our view, there is a material change in the fund's level of risk, for example due to a significant change to the assets held by the fund or in the way the fund is managed, we will provide information on the new risk rating. We recommend that you make sure you understand the risk rating of any fund before you invest.

Important Information

Some funds may invest in ‘underlying’ funds or other investment vehicles. The performance of our fund, compared to what it’s invested in won’t be exactly the same. That can be due to additional charges, cash management (needed to help people to enter and leave our fund when they want), tax and the timing of investments (this is known as a fund’s dealing cycle, it varies between managers and can be several days).

Source of performance data: FE fundinfo. We can’t predict the future. Past performance isn’t a guide to future performance. The figures shown are intended only to demonstrate performance history of the fund, after allowing for the impact of fund charges and further costs, but take no account of any Annual Management Charge paid for by the deduction of units. Charges and further costs may vary in the future and may be higher than they are now. Fund performance is based upon the movement of the daily price and is shown as total return in GBP with gross income reinvested. The value of your client’s investment can go down as well as up and the amount your client gets back may be less than they put in.
