Risk IndicatorThe level of risk of the fund mainly reflects the risk of the market in which the fund is invested and, as the case may be, the leveraging strategy or inverse performance of the index. The capital initially invested does not benefit from any guarantee. The current level of risk does not indicate the future level of risk and may change over time. The lowest risk level is not equal to a risk-free investment.

Portfolio Analysis

Management commentary

Effective date: 12/31/2022December was a month of two halves, with the market moving side-ways for much of the first half, followed by a swing in sentiment to more risk-off from mid-month to the end of the year.  While liquidity drying up was clearly a factor, so too was the focus shifting to a more concerning macro-outlook and what lies ahead in 2023, with a recession now very much the consensus view.  From a style perspective we saw our more ‘growth’ oriented names under pressure, while ‘value’ names found support.  From a broader market perspective, the more defensive market sectors like Utilities, Healthcare and Consumer Staples were the best performing, while IT and Consumer Discretionary were the worst performers and Energy was weak also.       
 
Within the Water portfolio, all three segments outperformed the market in December, with Utilities being the strongest, followed by Infrastructure and then Technology, which were closely tied.  Within Utilities, the Chinese names, which started to rebound in November as the government announced a revamp of the Covid Policy along with plans to boost support in the property market, continued their strength.  Within the Water Technology segment, while most of our high-quality, low volatility names were under pressure in the period, the strongest performers were more value oriented type stocks like European industrial Andritz and South Korean company Coway.  Within the Water Infrastructure segment, names exposed to US non-residential construction end markets, like Advanced Drainage, continued to weigh on performance.
