Al Yusr Morabaha & Sukuk Fund
Al Yusr Morabaha & Sukuk Fund Fact Sheet
Investment Policy The fund’s objective is to provide investors with a Sharia-compliant investment for steady capital appreciation with a high degree of capital preservation, superior liquidity and bearing foreign exchange risk. The fund invests in Sukuks and Morabaha (trade finance) transactions executed in accordance with Sahriah principles. Morabaha encompasses the purchase of goods and commodities from approved suppliers against immediate payment & the selling of them to reputed organizations on deferred payment terms thus generating a profit. All the profits are reinvested in the Fund, thus increasing its unit price. The large size of the fund’s collective investment ensures diversification and thus lower risk. The performance of the fund is compared to the Saudi Riyal 6-Months Interbank Bid Rate (SIBID). Market Overview Saudi Arabian Monetary Agency’s (SAMA) Reverse Repo Rate is reasonably related to the Federal Reserve’s (Fed) Target Rate, where both have been hiked during December 2015. Outlook of future actions of the Fed is rather related to how medium term inflation, however, the strength in the labor market made members of Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) more bullish on the economy’s resilience. Dollar has been strengthening against most currencies and very likely will continue standing its grounds. Given that European Central Bank (ECB) and Bank of Japan (BoJ) are both continuing their quantitative easing, which in effect would devalue both euro and yen. Although recent years showed that devaluing currency did not boost exports as it used to pre-financial crisis, nonetheless, it still make corporates earning rather appealing. China, on the other hand, have enjoy a double-digit growth rate for the past decade; this has not been the case since the last half of 2015. Furthermore, a dominant probability that the Chinese economy had a good run for a decade and will be dreadfully hard to reach such high growth rate in the future. With that in mind China’s slowdown will weigh on all commodities especially Oil and metals. China’s slowdown will drag Oil prices even lower; given that Oil revenues constitute nearly 90% of Saudi Government income. This in effect will urge SAMA to keep issuing (Saudi Government Development Bonds – SGDBs), moreover, SAMA is expected to approach global debt market within 2016. Aside from the budget, reducing government subsidies will reflect positively on the governmental revenues and possibly reduce the spread SAMA will have to pay to global creditors. Despite the expected hike from the Fed during 2016, currently market is pricing deposits based on the liquidity tightening in the market rather than the hike in reverse repo rate (which followed the Fed hike). This liquidity crunch will very likely persist, despite the recent cooldown in deposit rates. Once Oil prices rebound liquidity concerns should ease, yet Oil prices are expected to stay at least until third quarter at low levels, particularly that no real drivers are showing in the horizon. Needless to say that the market is still in over-supply, however, the demand and supply are closer to reaching their equilibrium compared to a year ago. Investment Review Market rates has dramatically moved & excess liquidity is being drained from banking system with the issuance of Saudi Government Development Bonds (SGDBs) and maturing government deposits. Saudi Hollandi Capital’s Al-Yusr Morabaha & Sukuk Fund posted returns outperforming its Benchmark (6-Months SIBID). We believe interest rates will be hiked during the remainder of 2016. This will, in combination with market conditions; alter the fund’s duration & will adjust accordingly.
