Following Rose Ouahba’s appointment as Managing Director, and with a mindset of continuous reinforcement of our Fund management set up, in September 2023, we appointed two expert duos on Fixed Income and Cross-asset alongside a highly experienced equity stock picker to manage the Fund. Their mission was to reinforce the strategy’s mandate and continue providing an asset allocation solution for clients, regardless of market timing.
The first six months of our new team were characterized by a rally of markets. In this bullish environment, Carmignac Patrimoine has been able to make the most of equity, credit and FX market opportunities thanks to its rigorous approach and selectivity, key components of the Fund process.
After more than a decade of a sluggish economic cycle, the return of inflation has led to strong market movements and volatility in the equity/rate correlation. Over the coming years, inflation is likely to be stronger and more volatile. It will therefore be key to rapidly and accurately anticipate next inflections in the economic cycle and adapt the portfolio accordingly across all asset classes: equities, bonds and currencies. In addition, there are several known unknowns in the coming months: US elections, Middle East and Ukrainian conflicts, monetary policies at a time when valuations are extended. These factors could create some volatility ahead.
In this context, we believe that the diversified and dynamic nature of Carmignac Patrimoine combined with the new team, gives us the confidence to fulfil the Fund’s mandate, remaining loyal to its inherent nature: capturing the upside to achieve long-term markets performance while mitigating drawdowns during market falls.
