Manager CommentsThe ASCF High Yield Fund rose by +0.56% in January, an outperformance of +1.58% compared with the Bloomberg AusBond Composite 0+ Yr Index which fell by -1.02%.

The ASCF High Yield Fund has a track record of 4 years and 11 months and therefore comparison over all market conditions and against its peers is limited. However, the fund has outperformed the Bloomberg AusBond Composite 0+ Yr Index since inception in March 2017, providing investors with an annualised return of 8.77% compared with the index's return of 3.03% over the same period.

On a calendar year basis, the fund hasn't experienced any negative annual returns in the 4 years and 11 months since the start of its track record. Since inception in March 2017, the fund hasn't had any negative monthly returns and therefore hasn't experienced a drawdown. Over the same period, the index's largest drawdown was -5.31%.

The Manager has delivered these returns with 3.35% less volatility than the index, contributing to a Sharpe ratio which has consistently remained above 1 over the past four years and which currently sits at 24.14 since inception. The fund has provided positive monthly returns 100% of the time in rising markets and 100% of the time during periods of market decline, contributing to an up-capture ratio since inception of 87% and a down-capture ratio of -94%.
