Market Overview & Fund Manager Comments

DFM Index was down 4% in October, lagging behind the MSCI emerging market index which ended flat.

Q3 corporate earnings season ended on a mixed note, with no negative surprises. Key trends observed in the banking sector were: higher cost of funds due to tighter liquidity conditions leading to contraction in NIMs, weaker fee income due to seasonality and moderate loan growth and higher loan provisioning, driven by corporate segment. In the real estate sector, we noticed some slowdown in pace of development projects and slower occupancies across hospitality assets. However, pre-sales data reported by Aldar and Emaar were quite robust considering challenging macro-economic backdrop. Q3 numbers reported by major construction companies suggests slower execution, working capital woes and deteriorating balance sheet health.

Considering expected bouts of volatility post U.S. elections, we had tactically increased cash levels to c.10%, positioning the Fund to capitalize on sharp emerging market moves. It would only be prudent to exercise caution ahead of two major events before the year end: the Fed meeting in December and the OPEC meeting on 30 Nov.

The UAE PMI decreased to 53.3 in October vs 54.1 in September, suggesting modest growth in non-oil economic activity.

Market Overview & Fund Manager Comments

Regional markets ended October on a mixed note, with Saudi Index recovering partially, up 7%, while both UAE and Qatar indices declined.

Saudi index saw sharp rebound upon successful closure of USD 17.5 bn bond issue (4x oversubscribed) and news flows on release of payment to contractors. However, Q3 corporate earning announcements continued to reflect on-the-ground challenges. Most of the sectors reported earnings lagging consensus estimates, leading us to believe that consensus numbers doesn’t reflect economic reality yet. In the UAE, Q3 numbers didn’t post any major negative surprise, and was within expectations with real estate players even reporting better than consensus numbers.

In Qatar, liquidity trends continue to stabilize with major loan growth originating from the public sector while resident and non-residents are driving deposit growth. Egypt devalued its currency by c.50% in early November, closing a huge gap between official and unofficial rates, in order to meet with IMF loan requirements.

PMI data points for KSA and UAE suggests modest pace of growth. PMI data points for Egypt showed increasing challenges with reading of 42.0 v/s. 46.3 in September, still on contractionary mode.

Market Overview & Fund Manager Comments

Massive sell-off in September spilled-over into the first week of October. The successful issuance of USD 17.5 bn bond, garnering an order book of USD 67.5 bn, acted as a catalyst for market to rebound. Positive news flows on release of payment to clear receivables resulted into continued market momentum.

On the ground, the situation continues to be challenging as reflected in subdued Q3 corporate earnings. Key trends we observed in the banking sector: aggregate earnings were down 15% q-o-q due to massive sequential increase in loan and investment impairments, slower momentum in loan and deposit growth. Net interest margin, however, improved sharply as loans were repriced due to higher benchmark rates. Cement sector was all about weaker volumes and depressed prices due to sluggish demand. Healthcare and consumer sectors also reported unexciting numbers due to working capital issues, lower discretionary spending and forex/investment losses. Petrochemicals sector exhibited diverse trends with some companies reporting lower volumes (due to high capacity utilization) while others witnessing higher growth in volumes with softer prices.

Since Inc. -4.4% -9.2% 4.7%

With sharp rebound in the index spilling over into early November, without any material change in fundamentals, we would exercise a caution and have build-up sizeable cash. The PMI for October declined to 53.2, down from 55.3 in September, confirming slowdown in non-oil sector.

Market Overview & Fund Manager Comments
Al Mal MENA Income Fund was down 0.1% in October. The Fund has
delivered returns of 36.4% since its launch in February 2009.
With announcement of U.S. election results, all eyes now on the Fed’s
December meeting. Recent data in the U.S. continues to meet most of the
key indicators, suggesting a high probability of rate increase, albeit with
lesser conviction.
Saudi Arabia printed its inaugural bond, raising a massive USD 17.5 bn
across several maturities, a record issuance by an EM issuer. The issue was
massively oversubscribed with USD 67 bn in order book. This issue has
helped in setting-up a yield curve for Saudi corporates who would now be
more comfortable in tapping bond markets. Following on a positive
response from the Saudi issuance, Kuwait government is expected to print
its paper in near future.
