Performance commentary
The Fund’s absolute return was very positive, whereas that of its reference indicator was negative. Our portfolio benefitted from its main investment themes, whether investment grade or high yield, such as financials, energy, special cases and restructuring. Our collateralised loan obligations also had a positive effect.Outlook strategy
We are still concentrating on our main investment themes through a selection of high yield bonds (e.g. in the energy and financial sectors), which are less sensitive to higher interest rates, and collateralised loan obligations (CLOs) with a variable-rate structure, limiting the negative effects of interest rate volatility and rising default rates. In these volatile conditions, we kept our credit market hedging strategies at 19% to protect the portfolio from the risk of further market dislocation, while focusing on alpha. After remaining low for several years due to the liquidity glut and low cost of capital, default rates will probably return to more normal levels, which we view as a catalyst likely to create real stand-out opportunities. The portfolio’s high carry (over 7%) and attractive credit valuations should mitigate short-term volatility and generate medium- and long-term performance.Performance Overview

Market environment
Investors lowered their expectations of key rate cuts at the Federal Reserve this year, pushing up yields such as the US 2yr, which gained 34 bps over the month to pass the 5% mark. This readjustment happened gradually over April as inflation figures were particularly solid across the Atlantic. The consumer price index in particular surged to +3.5% y/y. The roots of inflation are keeping Fed members on their guard as retail sales and employment data point towards a no-landing scenario for the US economy. Desynchronisation continues with the planets aligning in the Eurozone where inflation eased further to +2.4% y/y, allowing the ECB to take a much more dovish tone. The economic recovery is more visible in leading indicators as well as growth figures, which are beating the consensus forecast. However, this uncoupling has not helped European yields, which have followed the same upward trajectory as their US equivalents. The 10-year Bund yield gained 29 bps in April. The geopolitical situation has deteriorated in the Middle East after Iran’s bombardment of Israel, fuelling risk aversion among investors as well as inflation, with commodity prices surging.
