Approving ideas Our central economic thesis

Source: Invesco Perpetual as of 30 June 2017. For illustrative purposes only. Where the Invesco Multi Asset team has expressed opinions, they are based on current market conditions and are subject to change without notice. These opinions may differ from those of other Invesco investment professionals.

Global growth remains subdued

  • European growth momentum needs to navigate structural issues and politics
  • US business and consumer data suggest current cycle remains intact for now
  • Structural pressures (e.g. China) may manifest sooner than expected

Bond yields capped

  • Monetary and/or fiscal policy choices becoming more difficult, e.g. Draghi, Trump
  • Policy tightening is adding to existing funding strains (e.g. EM)
  • Lower trend growth and policy rates likely to cap the upside for bond yields

Fewer challenges to our low inflation view

  • Disinflationary forces still in place e.g. discretionary pricing and debt overhang
  • Risk that non-discretionary and/or protectionism inflationary pressures persist
  • Imbalances (e.g. inflation versus growth) impacting China’s policy choices

Caution in risk assets supports opportunities elsewhere

  • Further equity and credit market returns dominated by income
  • Seeking alternative return sources to reduce reliance on broad markets
  • Diversified alpha as an additional source of value

Increased volatility ahead

  • Despite macro uncertainty volatility has remained surprisingly low
  • Long-term impacts from the misallocation of capital (e.g. through leverage)
  • Threat of removal of accommodative policy

New idea: Commodity – Commodity Short

Source: Bloomberg as at 30 June 2017. For illustrative purposes only.

Debt levels in China have continued to rise

Commodity prices are likely to remain under pressure as global growth continues its stuttering

  • progress. Taking advantage of the shape of the commodity curve, this idea is implemented through

total return swap indices that have a higher beta with a slightly negative outlook on commodities. A premium is extracted in a flat market, but returns will be enhanced if commodity prices fall. We also sold total return swaps against an index of energy and base metals. 5

New idea: Equity – Equity Dispersion

Source: Bloomberg as at 30 June 2017. For illustrative purposes only.

The realized correlation of stocks within the S&P500 has fallen. This reflects the less ‘macro’ nature of the equity market relative to the past and means that individual stock returns are starting to diverge. We believe this will continue and have implemented a view which captures the rising dispersion between stock returns. We implement this view through an options-based index that captures the volatility of the 50 largest constituents of the S&P 500 index rising relative to the index as a whole.

Removed idea: Interest Rates – Japanese Curve Steepener

Source: Bloomberg as at 30 April 2017. For illustrative purposes only.

The Japanese Interest rate curve steepened as did most rate curves through the end of 2016 and this benefited our position. Since the turn of the year the curve has stabilised and we think further steepening is unlikely from here and hence we exited the idea. 7

Removed idea: Interest Rates – European Curve Steepener

Source: Bloomberg as at 30 April 2017. For illustrative purposes only.

The European curve steepened from mid 2016 to the end of the year , which benefited this idea. More hawkish positioning by the ECB suggests that the short rates might not be anchored as much which could see the curve flatten from a front end increase, which would be negative for the position and hence the idea was removed. 8

The UK pound recovered towards 1.30 US dollars from around 1.20, at the same time, volatility had moved lower . Given the price level and volatility conditions, we were less comfortable deriving an income from selling puts and so closed our long sterling idea. 9

Major implementation changes to ideas

Currency – Japanese Yen vs Korean Won

  • We have replaced the options

previously used for the Korean won position with forwards. Equity – European Divergence

  • Our ‘Equity – France vs Germany

and Italy’ idea was merged into this idea. Equity - Global

  • We continue to

see alpha potential in this investment idea, and have changed the composition

  • f

the sleeve to reflect three Invesco global equity strategies rather than two. The strategy added was the Invesco Global Opportunities strategy managed in Henley, UK. Equity – Selective Asia Exposure

  • We have added a long position

in Taiwanese equity futures to the idea and changed the composition

  • f

the sleeve to diversify our alpha generation. The sleeve now reflects two Invesco Asian equity strategies rather than one. Inflation – US vs UK

  • We continue to

hold our relative position between US and UK inflation expectations, where we believe the difference will narrow. However, we have now added a view on the inflation curve to this idea. We believe the curve is too flat (so the difference between near-term and longer-term inflation expectations is too small) and have used inflation swaps to capture any increase in this differential.

Important information

This presentation is for Professional Clients only and is not for consumer use. The value of investments and any income will fluctuate (this may partly be the result of exchange rate fluctuations) and investors may not get back the full amount invested. Past performance is not a guide to future returns. Where individuals or the business have expressed opinions, they are based on current market conditions, they may differ from those of other investment professionals and are subject to change without notice. Invesco Perpetual Global Targeted Returns The fund makes significant use of financial derivatives (complex instruments) which will result in the fund being leveraged and may result in large fluctuations in the value of the fund. Leverage on certain types of transactions including derivatives may impair the fund’s liquidity, cause it to liquidate positions at unfavourable times or otherwise cause the fund not to achieve its intended objective. Leverage occurs when the economic exposure created by the use of derivatives is greater than the amount invested resulting in the fund being exposed to a greater loss than the initial investment. The fund may be exposed to counterparty risk should an entity with which the fund does business become insolvent resulting in financial loss. This counterparty risk is reduced by the Manager, through the use of collateral management. The securities that the fund invests in may not always make interest and other payments nor is the solvency of the issuers

  • guaranteed. Market conditions, such as a decrease in market

liquidity for the securities in which the Fund invests, may mean that the Fund may not be able to sell those securities at their true value. These risks increase where the Fund invests in high yield or lower credit quality bonds and where we use derivatives. For the most up to date information on our funds, please refer to the relevant fund and share class-specific Key Investor Information Documents, the Supplementary Information Document, the Annual or Interim Short Reports and the Prospectus, which are available using the contact details shown.
