"Aikya returned 2.2% in October, lagging the benchmark's 4.2% due to strict valuation discipline that limited exposure to high-flying AI semiconductor stocks."
Executive Summary
In October 2025, the Aikya Global Emerging Markets UCITS Fund returned 2.2% versus 4.2% for the MSCI Emerging Markets Net Index. The underperformance was primarily driven by minimal exposure to major semiconductor manufacturers (TSMC, SK Hynix, Samsung) that rallied significantly on AI optimism. Indonesia exposure (Bank Central Asia) provided positive returns, buoyed by improved government sentiment. During a broader Chinese market correction, the portfolio's defensive stance helped it outperfom, led by positive returns from Centre Testing. In Latin America, results were mixed, with Raia Drogasil and Banco de Chile performing well, while Natura and FEMSA lagged due to a consumer slowdown in Brazil and Mexico.
