Fund Manager Comment

The Al Mal MENA Equity Fund was up 4.0% in April v/s. 5.4% increase in the S&P Pan Arab Index. The Fund has outperformed the benchmark by 27% since its launch in June 2008.

The regional markets showed positive trend in April with most indices outperforming global and emerging market peers. Tadawul index delivered the best performance by gaining 9.4%, while Doha index was down 1.8%.

In UAE, Q1 earnings ended with a mixed set of results showing weakness in banking sector, with aggregate earnings declining by 7% year-on-year due to higher provisioning and lower NIMs. Real estate sector showed good results with Emaar and Aldar leading from the front. Qatari companies reported satisfactory numbers; QNB net profits were up 7% year-on-year due to lower provisioning and higher LDR. Q1 corporate results of Egyptian companies were unexciting due to weakness in economy and issues with availability of US dollars. Emaar Misr reported 47% year-onyear increase in net profit largely due to higher interest income (43% of total profits) reflecting negatively on quality of earnings.

The Saudi Arabia PMI for April was 54.2 slightly down from 54.5 in March while Egypt PMI was up 46.9 from 44.5 in March, still showing contraction in economy

Fund Manager Comment

Fund Key Information

The Al Mal Saudi Shariah Equity Fund was up 8.0% in April as compared to increase of 9.6% in the S&P Saudi Shariah Index. The Fund has outperformed the benchmark by 11% 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 9.4% in April, outperforming regional and global peers due to sharp increase in Brent oil prices and positive news flow on introduction of Vision 2030 and the National Transformation Plan to reduce reliance on oil.

Sector Allocation
Fund Performance
National Transformation Plan to reduce reliance on oil.
Q1 corporate earnings surprised the market with banking sector earnings up by 12% quarter-on-
quarter on higher NIMs, robust growth in non-interest income and stable loan growth. Al Rajhi
reported 3.2% year-on-year growth in net income driven by higher spreads and healthy loan
growth. SABIC posted 11% q-o-q growth in net profits largely due to lower base of Q4 2015
which had impairment loss. The biggest disappointment came from Savola where the profit was
down 80% y-o-y due to higher competition in Iran, lower sugar prices, impact of EGP
devaluation and loss in the retail segment. The Saudi government showed commitment to
reduce reliance on oil by introducing vision 2030, the National Transformation Plan and setting-
up of public investment fund. These initiatives might face some glitches in implementation due
to fragile geo-political situation but would be instrumental in shifting focus from oil thus
creating a sustainable growth environment in the kingdom.

Fund Performance
Sector & Geographical Allocation

of 34.6% since its launch in February 2009.
The 10-year US treasury yield ranged between 1.69% to 1.92% in March. The Fed
maintained status quo at its meeting in April and kept the rates unchanged. Although key
data points showed improvement since March, the Fed was still cautious about the global
macro headwinds. The rates peaked at 1.92% a day prior to the meeting, increase of 15
bps compared to 1.77% as of beginning of April. Post the meeting, however, the rates
gradually eased to 1.76% level.
Primary market activity continues to be robust in the region. Abu Dhabi Government
priced its 5-year and 10-year tranche at 2.125% and 3.125%, respectively, at discount to
par, raising USD 2.5 bn in aggregate. The pricing was tighter compared to the guidance
due to massive demand for the paper. Bank Muscat also hit the market with 5-year
benchmark size note priced at 3.75%. We expect very active primary market in 2016.
Oman is expected to hit the primary market for its first international bond in 20 years.
Since HSBC discontinued the Index from Dec 2013, we have used S&P MENA Bond Index as the benchmark
