Manager’s Comment
During the month, the fund generated a return of 5.07% against benchmark return of 12.03%. Exposure in GOP Ijara Sukuk increased during the month. WAM of the fund was 1.02 years at month end.
In order to maintain a strong credit profile, the fund has been prudent in its risk policies and has avoided taking exposure in a number of weak credit corporate debt instruments offering a higher yield including some from power, banking, microfinance and miscellaneous sectors.
