"Gramercy Emerging Markets Debt Fund capitalizes on strong EM resilience and a weaker U.S. dollar, driving performance through high-yield sovereign credit and targeted local-currency selections like South Africa."
Executive Summary
In December 2025, global markets experienced caution and volatility due to split FOMC decisions on a 25 bps rate cut and concerns over tech/AI valuations. Emerging markets, however, remained resilient. The slide of the U.S. dollar (DXY -1.14%) acted as a strong tailwind for EM currencies, with EM local-currency sovereign bonds leading performance (+1.49%). The Gramercy Emerging Markets Debt Fund benefited from security selection in local-currency sovereign credit (notably South Africa) and exposure to high-yield sovereign credit. These gains were partially offset by underweight positions in lower-beta local currencies (IDR and MYR) and a drag from investment-grade duration exposure.
