Multi-Asset Monthly Comment - January 2026

RAM Global Multi-Asset Fund
Global economic sentiment remained mixed but resilient entering 2026. While growth conditions appeared broadly supported by expansionary fiscal policy and less restrictive monetary settings, January reminded investors of persistent downside risks, including elevated government debt, policy uncertainty, and trade frictions. Inflation stayed above target in several economies, prompting central banks to maintain a cautious stance. Consumer confidence showed uneven trends globally, weakening in some regions, while business sentiment and Purchasing Managers’ Indices in Europe remained in expansionary territory. Risk assets broadly advanced, supported by macroeconomic resilience and corporate earnings. Global equities posted solid gains, with Europe, Japan, and Emerging Markets indices outperforming the US. Corporate credit markets saw further spread tightening, reflecting strong demand for yield across both Investment Grade and High Yield sectors. Developed Markets government bond yield curves shifted upward overall, the USD softened against major currencies, largely due to fiscal and geopolitical concerns, while precious metals rallied sharply amid increased demand for safe-haven assets.
The equity book led gains over the month, driven by Single Name Equity exposures in emerging markets artificial intelligence, European electrification, and financials themes. Diversified Equities also contributed positively, supported by emerging markets and European all-cap exposures that benefitted from the strong performance of growth and momentum positions predominantly. Within Liquid Alternatives, gains were broadly distributed across Equity Market Neutral, Fixed Income Long/Short, and Event-Driven strategies. The investment grade-biased Traditional Fixed Income sleeve made a modest positive contribution, as spread tightening and carry were partially offset by the adverse impact of interest rates. Despite volatility picking up in the second half of the month, Risk-Reducing strategies were unable to meaningfully benefit, as the increase was gradual and limited, resulting in a small performance drag.
