Highlights
Global equities performed well in February, on
the back of strong corporate earnings, continued US economic
strength and a rebound in China. This was despite an increase in
government bond yields across developed markets as stronger
inflation pared back expectations of imminent rate cuts. In the US,
the S&P 500 was +5.3%, with a significant portion of the gains
occurring after NVIDIA published earnings. The Chinese Shenzhen
index rose 9.4% in the month, driven by good data over the Chinese
New Year and cuts to the key mortgage reference rate. Japanese
stocks remained strong with solid corporate earnings driving the
TOPIX up by 4.9% in February. Strong inflation and growth data in
the US led to the US dollar rising against most currencies, with
sterling ending February weaker against the dollar by
-0.5%.
Our portfolio performed well for the month,
driven by gains in our quoted equities book from our managers and
individual stock selection. Uncorrelated strategies also generated
healthy returns, while private investments were approximately flat
for the month.

Our quoted equities book generated solid
returns driven by strong earnings results from directly held stocks

month. As of 29 February, 23% of private funds were valued at 31
December reported valuations and 76% were held at 30 September
reported valuations. All private direct positions are valued at 31
December, in line with our half-yearly valuation process for these
holdings.

returns during the month, driven by positive contributions from our
credit and market neutral strategies.

programme, generating a further accretive impact to the NAV per
