BlackRock Diversified ESG Growth Fund Fund Commentary November 30, 2023

The BlackRock Diversified ESG Growth Fund recorded a positive return for November of 3.29% (after fees). Global markets rallied over the month with broad-based gains across asset classes amid speculation that monetary tightening by central banks has begun to moderate. Investor sentiment was further supported by policy developments in China regarding their zero-COVID stance and softer inflation data across key economies. Performance was led by growth assets over the period, driven by Australian Equities, International Equities and Emerging Market Equities. Global Infrastructure realised modest gains in November. The Fund’s more defensive asset classes, namely Australian Inflation Linked Bonds, US Inflation Linked Bonds, Global High Yield and Australian Fixed Income, also outperformed over the month.

The defensive allocation to Gold modestly contributed to the Fund’s performance. On the active front, the Fund underperformed its diversified benchmark over the month by -0.99% (after fees). Stock selection within Global Equities, Emerging Market equities and Australian equities detracted from active returns over November. Global Property also underperformed its underlying benchmark, while Global Infrastructure and Global High Yield were relatively flat across the period. The Fund also invests in a global macro strategy that takes overweight and underweight positions across asset classes and regions (i.e. tactical asset allocation).

Performance Commentary - March 31, 2023

The Fund employs BlackRock’s climate-aware capital market assumptions, or long-term estimates of asset class expected return and expected risk, as a key input into the portfolio’s design. This enables the manager to incorporate its assessment of the expected impact of climate change on asset classes into the Fund’s strategic asset allocation process. The Fund’s investment strategy accesses various asset classes by investing in other pooled investment vehicles (Underlying Funds), including those managed by us or other entities within the BlackRock Group. The strategy invests across a range of active and index investment strategies to construct the portfolio’s strategic asset allocation. Each active strategy utilises a disciplined approach to investing that aims to add value over the strategic allocation, whilst controlling risk. In addition to long only active funds, Underlying Funds may also include exposure to a diversified range of absolute return strategies seeking the Fund’s overall performance objective. The selection of an Underlying Fund for inclusion in the strategy is the result of a comprehensive due diligence process. The assessment of ESG considerations is considered in the due diligence process for selection of Underlying Funds.

Performance Commentary - February 28, 2023

Global Property realised gains over the month, while Global Infrastructure was relatively flat. On the active front, the Fund outperformed its diversified benchmark over the month by 0.42% (after fees). Global Equities was the largest contributor to active returns over February, driven by active positioning within the Fund’s allocation to global systematic equities (implemented through the BlackRock Sustainable Advantage World Equity Fund).

Australia Equities added to alpha, particularly via the Australian systematic strategy (implemented through the BlackRock Australian ESG Alpha Tilts Fund). Gains came from a number of sectors, including overweights in Consumer Discretionary (hotels, restaurant and leisure) and Real Estate (office REITs). Overweights in Financials (capital markets, insurance, and services) were also additive. Global Property also outperformed its underlying benchmark, primarily driven by the APAC region given an overweight to Australian Communications which benefited from strong earnings and a positive tenant outlook.

Performance Commentary - December 31, 2022

The defensive allocation to Gold contributed to the Fund’s performance. On the active front, the Fund modestly outperformed its diversified benchmark over the quarter by 0.01% (after fees). Stock selection within Global Equities and Australian equities detracted from active returns over Q4, which was partially offset by active positioning within Emerging Market equities. Global Property also underperformed its underlying benchmark, while Global High Yield contributed to alpha across the period. The Fund also invests in a global macro strategy that takes overweight and underweight positions across asset classes and regions (i.e. tactical asset allocation).

Kind words from Aussies managing

  • SMSF Mate is a unique website because it has ideas about how to approach SMSFs, insurance and other financial topics that come straight from first hand experience. It's much more useful than what you find on all the other financial websites that just offer generic info that you could easily get on the ATO's website. It's also nice to know there's no financial incentive behind the information, it's legitimately there to help people understand self-managed super funds and how to get the most out of them, not to get an affiliate commission from a broker or other financial services provider. The investment product information is also incredibly useful, I've never seen this kind of functionality on any other website that let's you look at such a wide range of products, sort by what info is most interesting or important to you, and subscribe to updates for different funds and financial products all in one place. Definitely worth checking out if you own or are considering an SMSF!

    David G, Self-Employed, SMSF Owner
  • SMSF Mate provides a unique insight into superannuation and financial topics in a way that is easier to understand than conventional websites. The colloquial nature of the site makes it easy to understand and they often speak about complicated topics in lamens terms so I can wrap my head around them. The investment product information is a great way to research funds that I am interested in investing in with my SMSF and there is a lot of helpful information on the site for better structuring my investment portfolio. In comparison to other websites which offer similar information, SMSF Mate excels as the information is free to access whereas many other sites charge a subscription fee for the same thing. Overall, I think SMSF Mate is a great resource for SMSF trustees and is worth looking at for a variety of super-related topics. Thanks.
