Quick Take

"Multi-asset funds capitalized on monetary policy shift from inflation control to growth support, driving broader market leadership. Strategic infrastructure additions and value-oriented holdings outperformed as interest rates declined."

Executive Summary

T. Bailey's multi-asset funds delivered positive performance in Q3 2024 as monetary policy shifted from inflation control to growth support, creating broader market leadership opportunities. The manager strategically positioned for this transition by introducing infrastructure exposure through VT Gravis UK Infrastructure Fund, recognizing that falling interest rates would benefit closed-ended funds trading at wide discounts. Value-oriented holdings like Ranmore Global Equity and Havelock Global Select outperformed as market leadership rotated away from technology dominance. Infrastructure positions including Impact Healthcare REIT and Urban Logistics generated strong returns. The artificial intelligence theme faced headwinds as valuations stretched, though the manager maintains balanced exposure while shifting focus toward AI beneficiaries rather than enablers. Gold allocation provided diversification benefits in the multi-asset framework. Looking forward, the manager expects continued volatility from election uncertainty and geopolitical tensions but remains constructive on the investment environment given forthcoming rate cuts and attractive valuations across portfolio holdings.
