Manager’s Report

For the six months ended 30 June 2020

Manager’s Market Perspective

2020 H1 Market Overview

The Asian credit market had one of the most volatile periods in history on the back of the COVID-19 outbreak and

oil price shock. The J.P. Morgan Asia Credit Index average credit spread widened by 200bps in 1Q before

subsequently tightening by 107bps in 2Q. For the first half of 2020, the investment grade and high yield sector

delivered 3.53% and -1.60% total return respectively. After the sharp correction in 1Q, investment sentiment

gradually recovered in 2Q as policy makers globally were quick with follow with fiscal and monetary supports to

the economy. These started to gradually filter through the credit markets. Concerns on second wave virus outbreak,

US-China tensions and various geopolitical flare ups have introduced bouts of volatility to the market in 2Q but

these were largely offset by the supportive policies measures and optimism on re-opening of major economies. With

the return in risk appetite over recent months, Asia USD bond supply continued to flow at a rapid pace in June,

driven mostly by IG issuers. YTD issuance continues to be on par with 2019 on a gross basis, though on a net basis

we are tracking roughly 30% below YoY.

2020 H2 Market Outlook and Strategy

After the strong performance in 2Q, the Asian credit market is not as dislocated as in March but current credit spread

levels remain wider than historical average and are still pricing in excessive rating downgrade and default risks, in

our view. 1H20 corporate earnings from impacted sectors inevitably will be weak but selective sectors (e.g. real

estate) are showing encouraging signs of rebound in recent months as economies reopen. Major economies in the

region such as China and Korea remain ahead of the curve in virus containment though India and Indonesia continue

to require more intensive monitoring, in our view. We also remain cognizant of the risk of a second wave outbreak

and also the rising US-China tension. Nevertheless, we expect selective sectors and companies will withstand the

current downturn. We also expect supply/demand technical to remain supportive as net issuance decreases year on

year. Against this backdrop, careful credit selection remains critical and we expect both the secondary and primary

markets to continue to present attractive opportunities amid market volatility.

The fund outperformed the benchmark by 311bps. The outperformance was primarily driven by successful credit

selection and asset allocation while duration and curve positioning had largely neutral impact. In terms of countries,

positions in China, Malaysia, Australia and Indonesia have contributed to the outperformance. Looking ahead, we

expect credit selection continue to be a major source of alpha. We remain selective in credit positioning and focus at

sectors and companies which will withstand the current economic downturn and benefit from supportive

government pressures.

Manager’s Report

For the six months ended 30 June 2020

Manager’s Market Perspective

2020 H1 Market Overview

Growth slump in 1H 2020 due to the Covid-19 pandemic. The Asian equities had one of the worst quarters in

history in 1st Quarter 2020 before a strong rebound in 2nd Quarter 2020 supported by flattening of Covid-10 cases,

and policy bazooka around the world. In the 1H 2020, China, first in and out of lockdown, was the best performing

market. The country has laying bricks again with construction surging. Indonesia was the worst performing market

in the region largely due to its current account deficit, limited fiscal capability for stimulus. Additionally, Covid-19

cases has not flattened in Indonesia as the number of tests has been small.

2020 H2 Market Outlook and Strategy

For the rest of the year 2020, we expect volatility will remain in the Asian equity markets. The Asia economic

prospect hinge on local and global evolution of the pandemic. Global trade, which is the essential fuel for Asia’s

economies will take awhile to come back. Private capex will likely fail to snap back in coming quarters considering

the yawning output gaps. We maintain our positive stance in Korea as valuations remain compelling. We remain

cautious on Malaysia as political risk lingers and valuations are not attractive.

PineBridge Europe Equity Fund

Manager’s Report

For the six months ended 30 June 2020

2

Manager’s Market Perspective

2020 H1 Market Overview

An orderly Brexit helped to prevent further volatility within European equities but global coronavirus fears

destabilized the market over the course of January and wiped away early 2020 gains. After reaching all-time highs

during the month of February, equities experienced a sharp sell-off towards the end of the month due to serious

concerns about the economic impact that the coronavirus would have on earnings and consumer sentiment.

The sharp de-risking across global equities was fueled by continued commentary from global health authorities

regarding the severity of the coronavirus outbreak as the virus reached areas in scale outside of China, including

Italy and Korea. Even as governments pledged financial support to help combat the outbreaks, it was not enough to

lift the heavy weight of the coronavirus impact on markets.

European markets had a positive April on the hope that the global coronavirus pandemic was slowing in many

European countries including the worst hit like Italy. The situations in Europe saw mild improvement as spread

slowed while the US followed shortly with its own relative flattening of the virus curves. With governments around

the world pledging to combat economic slowdown with whatever tools are available, markets were optimistic that

this support would help to stem the negative effects of the global coronavirus shutdowns.

In Europe, the ECB moved to help maintain access to liquidity. While the oil market reached crisis levels of

volatility where futures temporarily dipped into negative territory, the effect on European equities was somewhat

muted. European markets, along with other global equities, were resilient in the month of June which saw spiking

Covid-19 cases in some areas and geopolitical tensions. While there were pockets of coronavirus case spikes seen in

the US, Europe was largely considered to be under control despite areas of the region phasing in reopenings of

businesses. The ECB was active in June with further easing actions to help support growth with the Bank of

England also following suit by delivering on more asset purchases over the month.

2020 H2 Market Outlook and Strategy

As all regions around the world begin to grapple with the changes the global coronavirus pandemic has brought to

all industries, European equities are vulnerable to the dynamics of that volatility. There has been evidence of

equities being largely influenced by these macro factors as average pairwise correlation has increased since March

but there is also evidence of a wide dispersion of EPS estimates, lending to a greater opportunity set for stock

selection. This dispersion is something PineBridge will continue to monitor as equity market performance will

continue to reflect bifurcating prospects of companies.

Manager’s Report

For the six months ended 30 June 2020

Manager’s Market Perspective

2020 H1 Market Overview

COVID-19, oil price volatility and dovishness expressed by global central banks have repriced the rates markets

during the first half of 2020. We saw Hong Kong Dollar rates underperformed those of the US Dollar, especially in

the long end. Hong Kong Dollar 2-year swap rates declined from 2.02% at end-2019 to 0.72% by the end of Jun-

2020, during the same period 2-year US Dollar swap rates dropped from 1.7% to 0.23%. In the 10-year segment,

HKD swap fell from 2.04% to 1.04%, but the decline in USD rates are more pronounced from 1.90% to 0.64%. 3-

month HIBOR started the year at 2.43% and dropped to 0.78%, whereas 3-month LIBOR dropped from 1.77% to

0.3%.

In 1H 2020, HKD bond market followed the trajectory of the USD bond market. Interest rates in both markets

tightened significantly over 6 months, except the temporary shock in March at the peak of the virus outbreak. The

significant tightening in US rates reflected the strong commitment of the Fed in keeping the rates low. The HKD

interest rate differential over USD may continue for the time being. Higher interest rates in Hong Kong and Chinese

equity dual listings in Hong Kong increased the demand in HKD. During 2Q20, HKD spent most of the quarter at

the strong end of the peg range, prompting the HKMA to inject HKD liquidity multiple times. Aggregate balance,

which is a measure of interbank liquidity in Hong Kong, increased to HK$132bn from HK$68bn at the end of 2019.

Hong Kong’s economy continued to stay in recession as the 1Q20 GDP was down 8.9% yoy, due to the economic

impact from the virus outbreak. The full year GDP growth is expected to be -4% to -7% with weakness in retail,

tourism and international trades.

2020 H2 Market Outlook and Strategy

Hong Kong’s economy will be impacted by COVID-19 in 2020. As a small and open economy, it would continue to

be subject to external factors such as headwinds from China’s economy, US monetary policies, trade war and local

social events. We expect the Linked Exchange Rate System of Hong Kong to remain, supported by strong FX

reserves of USD 442 bn. Over the medium term, the Hong Kong rates will continue to converge to USD rates,

although short-term deviations will be driven by fund flows and risk premium. We think the belly of the HKD credit

curve offers good value at the moment. The fund will continue to seek to invest into quality instruments at higher

yields in 2H.

Manager’s Report

For the six months ended 30 June 2020

Manager’s Market Perspective 2020 H1 Market Overview

Calling the first half of 2020 eventful is an understatement. Over the last six months, we saw the end of the longest

cycle on record, the sharpest fall in equities since 2008, the largest subsequent post-bear market rally since the Great

Depression and major economies shutting down for weeks.

We could say that the first six months was a period of two halves. In the first quarter, financial markets were hit by

two black swan events within the space of two weeks as the coronavirus outbreak in the Wuhei province in China

developed into a global pandemic and OPEC+ commitments to limit oil supply collapsed, leading to a dramatic fall

in oil prices. The subsequent sharp sell-off of risk assets was met by unprecedented monetary policy easing (rates

cuts & QE from the Fed, ECB and BoE, among others) as well as fiscal support from governments aimed at both

consumers and corporates.

The second quarter was almost a mirror image from the first one, as we saw a strong rebound in risk assets driven

by the additional liquidity injected by the major central banks together with a more optimistic view on the negative

impact from the covid-19 pandemic as rates of infections slowed down and the developed economies started to

reopen.

During the period, bond markets performed well and posted positive returns as investors looked for safe-haven

assets. 10-year US Treasuries outperformed Bunds and Gilts as they moved from 1.92% to 0.66% driven by the

aggressive moves from the Fed (rate cuts and re-starting a large QE program). On the credit side, spreads moved

wider during the period but returns were positive in both the US and UK thanks to the rally in rates. In currencies,

the USD did well among G10 currencies losing only to the JPY & CHF given their safe-haven status.

2020 H2 Market Outlook and Strategy

The global coronavirus pandemic is the single, biggest exogenous shock to the global economy in decades that has

taken most economies into recession. However, as this is not a financial shock, and global policymakers have been

quick to react by providing extensive monetary stimulus, and politicians have backed up this effort by pledging

significant fiscal easing, there is hope that economies will recover relatively quickly. We expect the major central

banks to continue with their accommodative policies even as the economies start to recover and we do not expect

any policy removal in the near term. Similarly, fiscal deficits will continue in the second half of the year as

governments continue to support their economies. Further lockdowns due to an increase in covid-19 cases as well as

signs of finding a vaccine will drive markets, in addition to the US elections, Brexit negotiations and trade disputes.

The volatility in financial markets should continue at a high rate but we expect this volatility to provide investment

opportunities that the team will try to benefit from. We believe that our strong bottom-up analysis will help us

perform well in these challenging times.

Manager’s Report

Manager’s Market Perspective

2020 H1 Market Overview

Hong Kong equity market declined significantly in the first quarter of 2020, as COVID-19 outbreak in China

reversed the positive market momentum at the beginning of the year. Consequently, the growth estimations for 2020

were cut notably and the equity market sentiment turned negative despite the phase one deal between the U.S. and

China. Towards the end of the quarter, Hong Kong equity market further deteriorated as COVID-19 contagion

intensified globally and markets around the world saw risk-off sentiment.

In the second quarter of the year, Hong Kong equites rebounded notably, as governments around the world rolled

out policy supports while economies moved beyond the peak of the pandemic. China, in particular, continued to

lead in terms of economic reopening. High frequency economic data in the country also showed steady recovery.

During the quarter, the escalating US-China tension led to a temporary sell-off which however did not derail the

recovery pace of the market.

Taiwan equities outperformed Hong Kong and China equities in the first half of 2020. The first quarter saw market

declining notably, pricing in some supply disruption due to COVID-19 outbreak. In the second quarter, however,

market rebounded significantly and erased most of the earlier declines, mainly attributable to the strong 5G outlook

and the tech sector.

2020 H2 Market Outlook and Strategy

The COVID-19 epidemic in China seems to be well under control recently. High frequency economic data also

continued to show recovery and normalization of China’s activities. Corporate earnings revisions are seeing

improvement as well. These developments, coupled with the relatively attractive equity valuations, are supportive to

the performance and re-rating of local stocks.

Manager’s Report

For the six months ended 30 June 2020

2

Manager’s Market Perspective

2020 H1 Market Overview

Hong Kong equity market declined significantly in the first quarter of 2020, as COVID-19 outbreak in China

reversed the positive market momentum at the beginning of the year. Consequently, the growth estimations for 2020

were cut notably and the equity market sentiment turned negative despite the phase one deal between the U.S. and

China. Towards the end of the quarter, Hong Kong equity market further deteriorated as COVID-19 contagion

intensified globally and markets around the world saw risk-off sentiment.

In the second quarter of the year, Hong Kong equites rebounded notably, as governments around the world rolled

out policy supports while economies moved beyond the peak of the pandemic. China, in particular, continued to

lead in terms of economic reopening. High frequency economic data in the country also showed steady recovery.

During the quarter, the escalating US-China tension led to a temporary sell-off which however did not derail the

recovery pace of the market.

2020 H2 Market Outlook and Strategy

The COVID-19 epidemic in China seems to be well under control recently. High frequency economic data also

continued to show recovery and normalization of China’s activities. Corporate earnings revisions are seeing

improvement as well. These developments, coupled with the relatively attractive equity valuations, are supportive to

the performance and re-rating of local stocks.

Manager’s Report

For the six months ended 30 June 2020

Manager’s Market Perspective

2020 H1 Market Overview

First half of the year witnessed extreme events: lockdown in the country in March to control the spread of COVID-

19 followed by lifting of restrictions towards May. Former brought the economic activity to a grinding halt whereas

the latter led to resumption of the same. Similarly, global equity investors pulled out significant amount from

Indian equity markets in March (common phenomenon across the emerging markets) whereas India slowly

regained their confidence with lifting of restrictions and resumption of economic activities from Mid-April

onwards.

Post lifting of lockdown, India is witnessing significant improvement in economic activity as indicated by various

high frequency data such as electricity consumption reaching last year levels, electronic payments touching an all-

time high and the encouraging month-on-month growth in tax collections. India, historically starved of capital, is

witnessing large inflows from global investors leading to lower interest rates which in turn should translate to

lower costs for borrowers. In the developed world, interest rates being close to zero may not have any more

stimulating impact, whereas in India, the opposite is true given the real interest rates have been quite high. Capital

inflows are expected to continue as private companies are announcing equity fund raising plans while the

government has signalled its intention to accelerate the privatization process.

The fund outperformed the benchmark during this period. Stock selection was the key contributor to the

performance. From sector perspective, underweight in financials and overweight in health care contributed to the

performance while underweight in Energy and Communication services dragged the performance. At stock level,

Divi’s Laboratories (health care name) contributed positively whereas not owing Reliance Industries, index heavy

weight with over 11.5% weight, dragged the performance.

2020 H2 Market Outlook and Strategy

We believe that COVID-19 will have a profound impact on the economy and impact of global flows of goods,

capital and people. While we do not know the exact contours of the new paradigm, it is our long held belief that

financially strong companies run by able managements will be able to adapt themselves to the changes and produce

satisfactory results for their owners. Our strategy continues to remain the same: to identify such names and invest

in them.

India, in a long time, is seeing nominal interest rates and real interest rates coming down especially as regards bank

lending rates. Bank loans to commercial enterprises are nearly 50% of India’s GDP where banks earn

approximately 10% nominal interest rate. We have seen a reduction of 0.4% in interest rates in the past few months

on the outstanding loan book of banks which translates into 0.2% of GDP reduction in interest costs for private

borrowers. It is also important to note that the incremental lending rate is more than 1.3% lower than the current

interest rate on the outstanding loan book which should lead to further repricing of the loan book and reduction of

costs to borrowers in near future. This is especially important in an economy where inflation is near absent as it

reduces real interest rates and provides significant stimulus for a revival.

Our portfolio positioning is to invest in well-managed companies that can deploy large sums of capital efficiently.

These would include well-run financial, materials, pharmaceutical and housing-related companies. Given the lower

cost of capital, such companies should be able to grow at the expense of their peers. We also own companies which

are taking advantage of various technological disruptions in their industries. We believe such companies will have

a disproportionately higher growth than the ones who are stuck to the ways of past. The fund continues to maintain

its position in export related sectors (such as Information Technology and Health Care).

Manager’s Report

For the six months ended 30 June 2020

Manager’s Market Perspective

2020 H1 Market Overview

The Japanese equity market, the broad market index of Topix, fell 8.17% in the local currency. The market

experienced severe adjustment in February and March due to the panic created by the outbreak of COVID-19.

However, the market has started to rebound with the resuming global economic activity since April. As for

corporate fundamentals, earning revisions were negative at most of the sectors due to downward revisions by the

negative impact from COVID-19. As for the supply/demand situation of equities, foreign investors were major

sellers and corporates remained net buyers with stable level of share-buybacks. By style, value kept lagging

reflecting weakness of banks and commodity sectors. The fund underperformed the fund’s benchmark. Sector

allocation was negative due to the fund’s underweight in outperforming domestic defensives and consumer services

sectors. Stock selection was neutral since positive contribution from the stocks in retail and construction sectors

were offset by the negative contribution from the stocks in machinery and banks.

2020 H2 Market Outlook and Strategy

It will take a while for the COVID-19 situation to be settled. Despite the fact that new COVID-19 cases have not yet

settled globally, investors’ risk appetite has been resuming over the past few months, and it seems that the stock

prices have already incorporated an earnings’ recovery for fiscal year FY2021. In the post-COVID-19 era, it should

be noted that the US-China trade friction, the Middle East tension, and North Korea relations, etc., will be again be

the concerns. Approximately 20x of the estimated P/E for fiscal year FY2020 looked a little expensive, and the team

believes the market has already incorporated an earnings’ recovery for fiscal year FY2021 (approximately 15x of

P/E). The team has maintained the fund’s overweight position in global cyclicals to take advantage of the market

and cyclical recovery. The team invests in diversified investment themes, such as IoT (Internet of Things), labor

saving technology and sector consolidation, and remains selective due to the structural changes of certain Japanese

companies to be more shareholder oriented and to improve profitability. Technology-related sectors which benefit

from 5G/IoT/automation, etc. are priced at relatively high valuations amid the recent rebound. It will be important

to judge which companies will be able to actually generate profits from the technology-themed related businesses.

Manager’s Report

For the six months ended 30 June 2020

Manager’s Market Perspective

2020 H1 Market Overview

COVID-19, oil price volatility and dovishness expressed by global central banks have repriced the rates markets

during the first half of 2020. We saw Hong Kong Dollar rates underperformed those of the US Dollar, especially in

the long end. Hong Kong Dollar 2-year swap rates declined from 2.02% at end-2019 to 0.72% by the end of Jun-

2020, during the same period 2-year US Dollar swap rates dropped from 1.7% to 0.23%. In the 10-year segment,

HKD swap fell from 2.04% to 1.04%, but the decline in USD rates are more pronounced from 1.90% to 0.64%. 3-

month HIBOR started the year at 2.43% and dropped to 0.78%, whereas 3-month LIBOR dropped from 1.77% to

0.3%.

In 1H 2020, HKD bond market followed the trajectory of the USD bond market. Interest rates in both markets

tightened significantly over 6 months, except the temporary shock in March at the peak of the virus outbreak. The

significant tightening in US rates reflected the strong commitment of the Fed in keeping the rates low. The HKD

interest rate differential over USD may continue for the time being. Higher interest rates in Hong Kong and Chinese

equity dual listings in Hong Kong increased the demand in HKD. During 2Q20, HKD spent most of the quarter at

the strong end of the peg range, prompting the HKMA to inject HKD liquidity multiple times. Aggregate balance,

which is a measure of interbank liquidity in Hong Kong, increased to HK$132bn from HK$68bn at the end of 2019.

Hong Kong’s economy continued to stay in recession as the 1Q20 GDP was down 8.9% yoy, due to the economic

impact from the virus outbreak. The full year GDP growth is expected to be -4% to -7% with weakness in retail,

tourism and international trades.

2020 H2 Market Outlook and Strategy

Hong Kong’s economy will be impacted by COVID-19 in 2020. As a small and open economy, it would continue to

be subject to external factors such as headwinds from China’s economy, US monetary policies, trade war and local

social events. We expect the Linked Exchange Rate System of Hong Kong to remain, supported by strong FX

reserves of USD 442 bn. Over the medium term, the Hong Kong rates will continue to converge to USD rates,

although short-term deviations will be driven by fund flows and risk premium.

Majority of the fund continues to be placed in banks' short-term time deposits given the availability of money

market instruments. Maturing time deposits were rolled over primarily to local banks as well as regional banks with

Hong Kong presence. The fund will monitor for opportunities to invest into quality instruments at higher yields.

Manager’s Report

For the six months ended 30 June 2020

Manager’s Market Perspective

2020 H1 Market Overview

The first quarter of 2020 was one of the most volatile periods for equity markets since the Global Financial Crisis as

significant de-risking occurred in the latter half of the quarter following markets reaching new highs due to the

surrounding concerns about the economic and social impacts of the COVID-19 global pandemic. While largely

viewed as an Asia issue to begin the year, coronavirus impacts began to show signs of global penetration beginning

in the middle of February. Up until this point, incrementally positive sentiment still prevailed for equities as the

US/China Phase 1 trade deal was signed and positive earnings data drove markets to all-time highs. As new

COVID-19 cases began to rapidly spread to countries outside of China and its surrounding regions, the market

reaction was equally swift as governments around the world began to shut down non-essential activities and restrict

travel. To add to already high market volatility, oil prices collapsed as Saudi Arabia and Russia became engaged in

a price war that only served to further distress markets.

In response to unprecedented circumstances, governments around the world introduced fiscal and monetary policy

measures in order to attempt to stem the negative impacts of the pandemic and the surrounding preventative actions.

In the US, a 2 trillion dollar relief package was part of the response in addition to the Federal Reserve implementing

emergency rate cuts to near zero and announcing open-ended quantitative easing.

The US equity markets rallied in the second quarter of 2020 off a historically strong month in April as markets

bounced back from the steep sell-off in March due to the global coronavirus pandemic, spurred by optimism that the

worst of the virus had passed and governments began preliminary assessments for reopening. The situations in

Europe saw mild improvement as spread slowed while the US followed shortly with its own relative flattening of

the virus curves. While the situation in high density cities like New York was serious, the worst estimates of

capacity limitations and hospital utilizations were never reached. Economic data like the March payrolls came in

below even the worst expectations but this was shrugged off by markets as governments continued to show

willingness for support. The US equity markets had another largely positive month in May, continuing the

momentum from April as cities and states across the US started to outline their plans for phased reopenings. Better

than feared economic data contributed to the positive sentiment, though largely still affected by the nationwide

shutdowns related to coronavirus.

Markets continued to drive up as promising trial data from Moderna's vaccine trials helped to boost optimism that a

vaccine could be on the way and the fears of a second wave infection were tapered down, leading to a largely risk-

on environment in May. The relatively successful reopening in China as the rest of the world observed likely

contributed to the outperformance of US equity markets as investors hope for a similarly successful situation in the

US. The month of June ushered in phased reopenings with markets remaining relatively positive but volatile as

virus cases spiked due to those reopenings.

2020 H2 Market Outlook and Strategy

A number of macro uncertainties remain on the horizon for equities, from the most prominent risk of a second wave

of coronavirus, US-China relations and more distantly, the outcome of the 2020 presidential election. A positive

sign on the coronavirus front has been the lack of emergence of second waves in countries that have reopened their

businesses. In the US, signs of case spikes have given pause to authorities across the nation and reopening plans

continue to be modified in response to the developing situations. There has been evidence of equities being largely

influenced by these macro factors as average pairwise correlation has increased since March but there is also

evidence of a wide dispersion of EPS estimates, lending to a greater opportunity set for stock selection. This

dispersion is something PineBridge will continue to monitor as equity market performance will continue to reflect

bifurcating prospects of companies.
