The first week of 2016 saw both a multi­day devaluation of the RMB and a plunge in the mainland Chinese indices as a new stock market circuit breaker was rolled out. Further weakness in oil combined with events in China to drive down markets globally. While the CSRC suspended the circuit breaker and the PBOC subsequently attempted to stabilize the currency by engineering a short squeeze in offshore currency markets, pessimism continued. In Hong Kong, pressure on the HK$ peg stemming from weakness in the RMB led to a spike in interest rates. In Taiwan, as anticipated, the Democratic Progressive Party won Presidential and legislative elections decisively, heralding an era of caution towards China relations. The Fund underperformed due to our overweight in China at the expense of Taiwan. Market outlook (as at 31/01/16) Chinese policymakers continued to lose credibility with markets due to opacity, inconsistency and a lack of intra­institutional coordination. While central banks in other major economies have generally been stabilizing forces in recent years, the PBOC has thus far not been. That said, given the growth bias of our portfolio, we only require stability rather than an improbable recovery in either policy credibility or the broader economy, and market dislocations are generally opportunities to add to our holdings in consumer, media, healthcare and technology.

This document contains information concerning the performance of JF Investment Companies. It does not constitute or contain, and may not be used for the purposes of or in connection with, any offer or invitation or solicitation by or o n behalf of any of the investment companies described herein to subscribe for or to purchase securities by anyone in any jurisdiction in which such offer, invitation or solicitation is not authorised, or to any person to whom it is unlawful to make such offer, invitation or solicitation. There is no assurance that the Fund will achieve its investment objective. You should remember that past performance is not a guide to the future. The price of investments and the income from them may fall as well as rise and you may not get back the full amount invested. All performance assumes reinvestment of all dividends and capital gain distributions. Total return based on share price reflects changes in market value. Total return based on net asset value reflects changes in the Fund’s net asset value during each period. Shares of the Fund may trade above or below its net asset value. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. When a subscription involves a foreign exchange transaction, it may be subject to the fluctuations of currency values. Exchange rates may also cause the value of underlying overseas investments to go up or down. Investments in emerging markets may involve a higher element of risk due political and economic instability and underdeveloped markets and systems. Investments in smaller companies may involve a higher degree of risk as markets are usually more sensitive to price movements. Concentrating investments in the greater China region subjects the Fund to more volatility and greater risk of loss than geographically diverse funds. The views expressed herein are not to be taken as advice or a recommendation to buy or sell any investment.
