Performance as at Q2 2024 - Q2 saw four developed market central banks (the ECB, BoC, Riksbank, and the SNB) commence their respective rate cutting journeys, with the BoE expected to join in August as headline CPI returned to its target of 2.0% YoY in May. In the UK housing market, mortgage approvals declined as a consequence of higher borrowing costs, however, house prices surprisingly increased following the market stabilising ahead of the BoE’s expected rate cuts. The anticipated rate cuts has increased competition amongst mortgage providers, cutting borrowing costs across a range of residential products and other providers are expected to follow. Elsewhere in the UK, British retail sales appeared stronger than expected during the second quarter, driven by increased consumer confidence and slowing levels of inflation. As central banks across major developed markets begin to cut rates, it positions the Fed as one of the last to embark on the 'easing train', with rate cutting pace across the board expected to be gradual as inflation remains ahead of central banks' targets in most regions (except for Switzerland, which has seen two rate cuts so far). In particular, US CPI in May showed the lowest monthly core CPI reading since August 2021 at 3.4% YoY, with core PCE (the Fed's preferred inflation gauge) increasing 0.08% MoM in May to 2.6% YoY, the softest reading since November 2020. These figures helped cement expectations that rate cuts were still on the horizon from the Federal Reserve, but suggest that more evidence of disinflation will be needed to gain confidence that inflation is moving back to the 2% target. Despite the lowering of policy rates in Europe, the fallout from the European parliamentary elections and subsequent announcement of snap French legislative elections saw European sovereign yields rise, with the Franco-German 10-year spread widening by +29bps to 80bps in Q2 - the biggest quarterly widening since Q4 2011, when the Euro sovereign crisis was ongoing. In the Investment Grade (IG) market, spreads finally widened in June after tightening for most of the year, with the sell-off being attributed to several factors, including the weaker economic data and political risks in France. Despite the widening spreads, total returns have remained generally positive, driven by the duration component as yields fell. GBP IG generated a total return of 0.6% over the month, with USD and EUR up at 0.7% and 0.8% respectively. The GBP IG corporate index offers a spread of 99 basis points, +3bps wider versus end of May. June was also a positive month for high yield markets, with carry and tighter rates driving returns. Global HY index delivered 0.91% thanks to the rally in government bond yields that followed the news of softer US inflation and the first rate cut from the ECB. However, French election uncertainty weighed on spread performance and Euro HY markets lagged (0.54%) their US (0.97%) counterparts.

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).

Part, or all of the periodic annual management fee(s) and expenses may be charged to capital which could increase the potential for the capital value of your investment to be eroded. Your capital could also decrease if income withdrawals exceed the growth rate of the fund(s).
The fund invests in high yield bonds. High yield bonds carry a greater risk of default than investment grade bonds, and economic conditions and interest rate movements will have a greater effect on their price. Income levels may not be achieved and the income provided may vary.
The value of investments, and any income can fall, as well as rise, so you could get back less than you invested. Neither capital nor income is guaranteed.
Investments should be regarded as long term and are not suitable for money which may be needed in the short term, you should always have a sufficient cash reserve.
If the fund you choose invests in bonds there is a risk that the issuer may default, resulting in a loss to the portfolio.
What you receive when you sell your investment is not guaranteed; it depends on how your investments perform.
Inflation will reduce the real value of your investments in future.
Levels of taxation and tax relief are subject to change.
Because of changes in exchange rates the value of your investment, as well as any money you take from it, can go down as well as up.

The risk factor definitions are provided by Broadridge. These definitions may differ from those of Prudential or any underlying fund manager. The data itself is provided by Prudential or the underlying fund manager.

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.
