Asset Allocation - Global and GEM Equity

Thematic (Sector/Industry)

Exposure in Aluminium stocks has moved higher over the last 12-months.  Just over a fifth of the EM funds in our analysis now have exposure to the Aluminium industry group, up from 7.7% in June of last year.  However, at just 0.12% average weight, exposure levels are far from convincing.Ten stocks make up the Emerging Markets Aluminium Industry group, led by <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/china-hongqiao-group-ltd" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:1909:1" rel="noopener">China Hongqiao (1378 HK)</a> and <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/aluminum-corporation-of-china-limited" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:6884:1" rel="noopener">Aluminum Corporation Of China (2600 HK)</a>, held by 10.8% and 5.2% of managers respectively.The image of Aluminium from an ESG perspective doesn't appear to be a major issue and hasn't deterred the ESG focused strategies in our analysis from investing.  In fact, 26.3% of ESG funds have exposure to the Aluminium Industry compared to 19% of non-ESG funds.But we can't escape the fact that across all of the stocks in the Aluminium Industry group, not one has managed to attract an investment of above 2% in any of the 250 active GEM funds in our analysis.  At this stage, active EM managers are only 'dipping their toes in', rather than risking a high conviction allocation.
