Fund Key Information
Fund Manager Comment
The objective of the Fund is to achieve significant capital appreciation, primarily through investment in equity and equity related securities in the Middle East and North African markets.
The Al Mal MENA Equity Fund was up 8.7% in February v/s. 6.9% increase in the S&P Pan Arab Index. The Fund has outperformed the benchmark by 25.1% since its launch in June 2008.
February was relatively a better month for regional markets compared to global markets, with DFM Index leading from the front. In the UAE, Q4 corporate earnings season ended on a mixed note with some of the major companies like Air Arabia and RAK Ceramics posting weakness in profits due to FX losses. Banking sector showed some signs of economic slowdown with RAK bank profit down 18% due to higher provisioning and increase in NPLs, and SHUAA capital posting loss of AED 162 mn due to higher provisioning in financing business.

Qatari companies also showed some softening in their profits with Al Meera posting 61% drop in profits y-oy due to loss on their investment book and Industries Qatar Q4 profits were down 62% y-o-y due to lower petrochemical prices. While overall Q4 results of Saudi corporates were subdued, some of the companies in defensive sectors posted good set of numbers; Dallah Healthcare Q4 profits up 8% y-o-y and Saudi Arabian Catering posting 10% increase in profits y-o-y.
Despite Egypt lowering their economic growth forecast from 4.25% to 4%, we saw some revival in the capital market activity with Arabian food industries planning to raise USD 128 mn in first IPO of 2016 in the region.
The PMI numbers for the entire region showed some improvement in non-oil sector with the exception of Egypt PMI which came in at 48.1 in February vs 48.0 in January.

Fund Manager Comment
Fund Key Information
The Al Mal Saudi Shariah Equity Fund was up 4.7% in February as compared to increase of 6.5% in the S&P Saudi Shariah Index. The Fund has outperformed the benchmark by 11.5% since its launch in march 2011.
To achieve significant capital appreciation primarily through Shariah-compliant investments in equity and equity-related securities issued by companies based in, or with a significant proportion of their business activities in, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
Tadawul Index was up 1.6% in February, lagging behind its regional peers, mainly due to subdued Q4 earnings season. The meeting between Russia and Saudi Arabia to address supply side glut was successful and both the countries agreed to freeze the output at January 2016 level. However, this may not be sufficient to reduce the excess supply in the market, in our view.

In order to boost bank lending in general and to real estate sector in particular, the Saudi Monetary Authority increased upper limit for Loans-to-deposit ratio from 85% to 90%, and also increased the LTV in mortgages from 70% to 85%. While these initiatives are likely to facilitate growth in lending, the willingness of borrowers is constrained by challenging macro-economic outlook and geopolitical risks. The Q4 earning season came to an end with some negative surprises; Maaden posted losses due to weakness across all product segments and Dar al Arkan posted profit of SAR 49 mn - lowest on record due to lower land sales owing to weakness in overall economy.
The Brent was up 8.7% in February due to production cut and reduced capex by shale producers to curtail losses. We expect this trend to continue if high-cost shale producers are forced to cut production in coming months.

NAV Per Unit: USD 12.37
Fund Manager Comment
The Al Mal MENA Income Fund was up 1.39% in February. The Fund has delivered returns of 32.9% since its launch in February 2009.
The 10-year US treasury yield ranged between 1.95% to 1.66%. The expectations of another Fed rate hike in its March meeting increased after strong employment data had calmed concerns related to health of the U.S. economy. As a result, the yield increased by 25 bps between end of Feb and 11 Mar, almost pricing-in the Fed rate hike expectations.
In the first week of March, Moody’s reviewed sovereign ratings of Bahrain, Kuwait, Qatar, Saudi Arabia and UAE for potential downgrade and took rating actions on 26 GCC-based banks. Bahrain’s rating was downgraded to junk, first time a GCC state has been rated below investment grade since 1999. In February, Bahrain had terminated USD 750 mn, 5 and 10-year bonds following S&P’s decision to downgrade its rating to junk. No other primary market activity was witnessed in February aside from the Bahraini issue which was revived after the cancellation.
