This information is a financial promotion for the Stewart Investors Global Emerging Markets Leaders Strategy intended for retail and professional clients in the UK only.

Investing involves certain risks including:

  • The value of investments and any income from them may go down as well as up and are not guaranteed. Investors may get back significantly less than the original amount invested.
  • Currency risk: the Fund invests in assets which are denominated in other currencies; changes in exchange rates will affect the value of the Fund and could create losses. Currency control decisions made by governments could affect the value of the Fund's investments and could cause the Fund to defer or suspend redemptions of its shares.
  • Emerging market risk: Emerging markets tend to be more sensitive to economic and political conditions than developed markets. Other factors include greater liquidity risk, restrictions on investment or transfer of assets, failed/delayed settlement and difficulties valuing securities.
  • Concentration risk: the Fund invests in a relatively small number of companies which may be riskier than a fund that invests in a large number of companies.

Where featured, specific securities or companies are intended as an illustration of investment strategy only, and should not be construed as investment advice or a recommendation to buy or sell any security.

Quarterly updates

Strategy update: Q2 2025

Global Emerging Markets Leaders strategy update: 1 April - 30 June 2025

The announcement of President Trump’s ‘Liberation Day’ tariffs on 2 April and the short, sharp trade war with China that followed drove share prices sharply lower. Nerves were soon calmed, however, by the announcement of a 90-day pause on the tariffs’ introduction.

That calm endured even when Israel took direct military action against Iran, with the oil price spiking higher only briefly. Perhaps the most interesting development from our perspective, however, was that the US dollar had its weakest start to the year since 19731. We think the pressure on the dollar could persist and may, in time, encourage asset owners to reduce the proportion of their wealth held in US and to look to emerging markets instead.

We added four new holdings over the quarter: two in China and two in India. Trip.com (China: Consumer Discretionary) is the country’s largest online travel-booking platform. It survived the dead stop in tourism in the covid pandemic and now seems primed to take advantage of a shift to booking travel online. While only about 10% of the Chinese population currently has a passport that proportion is expected to increase2. We took advantage of market weakness at the start of the quarter to build a new position in Tencent (China: Communication Services). The reach of WeChat, a ‘super app’ that allows its users to do almost everything online, is unparalleled in China. Tencent is aligned with the state’s desire to work in partnership with private companies to reinvigorate the economy. It is also enabling China to shift computing tasks to the cloud, which is more energy-efficient than on-premises IT infrastructure.

Cholamandalam Financial Holdings (India: Financials) is an Indian financial services business rolling out general insurance across India. It is associated with the Muragappa family, who we believe to be good stewards. ICICI Lombard (India: Financials) is also an insurer. Prime Minister Modi is committed to a programme of delivering ‘insurance for all’ by 2047; we believe both companies will benefit from this drive.

1406209380

We sold the holding in Jerónimo Martins, the Portuguese-listed owner of Poland’s Biedronka supermarket chain and of Ara in Colombia (around 80% of the group’s revenues are generated in Poland and Colombia)3. We like the company’s management and the outlook for the business, but the shares have performed well and we struggle to see enough growth coming through to support further gains.

Elsewhere, we have become increasingly concerned about the outlook for IT services businesses, seeing a risk that their clients postpone or cancel investments in their IT systems due to the uncertainties currently facing the US economy. As part of our ongoing review of this sector, we also trimmed the holding in Globant (Argentina: Information Technology). We understand the argument that some companies will need IT services businesses to help them to adopt and integrate artificial intelligence (AI) tools. Equally, it may be that its clients actually use AI to replace their existing IT services.

Looking ahead, we remain particularly positive on the prospects for high-quality companies in India. The central bank recently started cutting interest rates, which is a clear positive for demand in rural India. Towards the end of the quarter, we attended a conference of Indian companies and were struck by how positive all of them were about the growth opportunities before them over the next 10 years. In our view, this potential growth – and the size of the Indian market – continues to offer powerful support to valuations.

Strategy update: Q1 2025

Global Emerging Markets Leaders strategy update: 1 January - 31 March 2025

With the threat of US tariffs ever present, many of the challenges emerging markets faced in the final quarter of 2024 carried over into 2025. Share prices in India fell sharply due to concerns about a slowdown in the economy. China, by contrast, performed well as investors anticipated faster economic growth and began to identify value in many parts of the market. This sentiment was also supported by President Xi, who met executives from a number of private-sector companies.

We added 10 new holdings over the quarter and sold seven. In China, we sold Glodon (China: Information Technology), Hangzhou Robam (China: Consumer Discretionary), WuXi Biologics (China: Health Care), Ping An Insurance (China: Financials) and Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing (Hong Kong: Financials). We sold the first two companies because we believe the country's property market continues to have an issue with oversupply. Glodon provides software to construction and development companies and the majority of Hangzhou Robam’s appliances are sold to housing developers. WuXi Biologics was a small position and we couldn’t see any immediate prospect that the ongoing challenges posed by US government trade policy would be resolved. Although Ping An Insurance and Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing had both performed well, we sold them to fund new investment ideas such as Alibaba (China: Consumer Discretionary), S.F. Holding (China: Industrials) and Mindray (China: Health Care).

Alibaba is one of China’s leading e-commerce platforms. S.F. Holding has grown into one of China’s leading logistics businesses since its foundation in 1992. Mindray is a leading medical company. As trade barriers are thrown up around the world, it has the potential to benefit should there be a shift in China towards buying domestically sourced products.

Elsewhere, we added a handful of new holdings and trimmed the size of some existing positions. We took some profits in Marico (India: Consumer Staples) and reinvested the proceeds in Info Edge (India: Communications), Tube Investments (India: Consumer Discretionary), Bajaj Auto (India: Consumer Discretionary) and Bajaj Holdings & Investment (India: Financials). These companies had been on our focus list for a while but their previously high valuations had put us off investing. InfoEdge is a technology company whose online jobs portal caters to 132,000 corporate customers and hosts around 100 million CVs1. It also has property, matchmaking and educational portals. Tube Investments is an industrial group whose share price had fallen sharply, providing us with what we believe is an excellent buying opportunity. Bajaj Auto also fell, allowing us to add this leading manufacturer of motorcycles, scooters and auto rickshaws. Bajaj Holdings & Investment is the holding company of siblings Rajiv and Sanjiv Bajaj. They have demonstrated a good track record of delivering returns for shareholders in autos and financial services.

We sold convenience store business Dino Polska (Poland: Consumer Staples), which had performed well but which had become too expensive for its long-term growth expectations. We also sold Unicharm (Japan: Consumer Staples). In response to demographic change it has shifted its emphasis to making adult diapers but it has found this shift harder that it had originally envisaged.

Elsewhere, we bought Samsung Biologics (South Korea: Health Care), Alfamart (Indonesia: Consumer Staples), Voltronic Power (Taiwan: Industrials) and BDO Unibank (Philippines: Financials). With the financial backing of its parent company, we believe Samsung Biologics can add capacity more quickly than its competitors and win market share. Alfamart is the second biggest company in Indonesia’s convenience-store sector2. It plans to roll out new stores across the country over the next decade. Its shares fell as the market took fright at Indonesia’s new government but we can see a clear and dependable growth path before it. Voltronic Power makes uninterruptible power supply units (PSUs). We expect demand for these to increase steadily as a new generation of data centres is built worldwide. Finally, BDO Unibank is the Philippines’ largest financial lender3.

While we are broadly positive on the outlook for emerging markets, we recognise that there is likely to be ongoing volatility for as long as worries about trade tariffs and global political tensions remain at elevated levels. Our task is to block out the short-term noise to focus on the underlying quality, growth and leadership of the companies we invest in.

Strategy update: Q4 2024

Global Emerging Markets Leaders strategy update: 1 October - 31 December 2024

Through the last quarter of 2024, stock markets had to deal with the re-election of Donald Trump in the United States and all the expected world and political noise that will come over the next four years. At the same time the US dollar currency continued to strengthen. We remain focused on our investment process and investing in high-quality companies. We will continue to seek out long-term growth opportunities regardless of who is the President in the White House.

During the quarter, we bought Naver (South Korea: Communication Services), the leading internet search engine in South Korea. It was originally part of Samsung SDS before it became a separate company in 1999. It is still managed by the founder, Lee Hae-jin who has recently brought in a new management team which is aiming to return the company to a path of steady and profitable growth. One key aim for them is to use their large and stable search engine client base to drive growth in their e-commerce business. Their e-commerce business, which includes advertising, sales and memberships, is the second largest in South Korea2. We believe that Naver should achieve strong growth in the future and its attractive valuation gave us a good opportunity to invest at this time.

We did not fully exit any positions during the quarter but trimmed back several of our Chinese holdings. These included Inovance (China: Industrials) which was becoming expensive, and Ping An Insurance (China: Financials) and Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing (Hong Kong: Financials) which were trimmed to control larger position sizes. We build our portfolios by investing in individual companies and any views at a country level are reflected through the position size which is weighted according to our confidence and risk appetite in each country. China has a large and deep stock market but we fully recognise that companies both in mainland China and Hong Kong are required to operate within very strict regulations set by the government. As a result, we typically have lower position sizes in our Chinese holdings to reflect our more cautious approach. Some of the proceeds raised from these trims was used to add to Samsung Electronics (South Korea: Information Technology), which we continue to believe is a company we can own for the next decade. 

We continue to look for high-quality companies which we can buy at reasonable valuations. We believe that valuations in emerging markets are currently very attractive. Additionally, we see numerous long-term growth opportunities that we can support over the next decade. The team is planning many research trips for 2025 to seek out new investment opportunities and update our knowledge of existing holdings. We look forward to sharing more with you as the year progresses.

Strategy update: Q3 2024

Global Emerging Markets Leaders strategy update: 1 July - 30 September 2024

Most of the quarter’s activity happened in September, as is often the case. It is in such moments, like the biggest stock market moves since 2009 in China and Hong Kong and rising geopolitical tensions in the Middle East, that we remain grateful for our long-term philosophy. It gives us the ability to step back in moments of such unpredictable change and reminds us to focus on what we believe are more important, company-focused drivers of change.

We sold two positions in China, unfortunately before the recent stock market rally. We used the sale proceeds to reallocate into other Chinese companies in the portfolio where we had greater confidence.

Estun Automation (China: Industrials) was a company we had sold on valuation concerns in the past, and when the share price fell sharply earlier this year, we bought it again. Long-term growth opportunities such as an ageing population needing more automation remains intact but financial risk had elevated and we quickly concluded that the quality of business was lower than when we had owned the company previously. We allocated the funds into Inovance (China: Industrials), which operates in the same sector but has a larger variety of products. Inovance is looking to shift to a regional sales network and cross sell products to their existing customer base. We believe the company provides access to industrial automation growth in a higher quality business. 

The other stock we fully exited in China was Kingmed Diagnostics (China: Health Care) which was a small remaining position and had already been partly sold down on regulatory fears.

We also sold Kotak Mahindra Bank (India: Financials). We have seen Kotak, and other private banks, finding it harder to attract deposits that will allow them to keep growing loans. In India, it used to be the case that public sector banks were so poorly thought of and untrusted that few people and businesses would risk their savings at one of these government-owned banks. The public sector banks have now improved and professionalised which is great for the Indian saver and borrower but tougher for the private sector banks like Kotak who now face tougher competition from the public sector banks. With prospects for growth looking weaker and some remaining concerns about company management, we exited the position.

The only new position we purchased over the quarter was Regional (Mexico: Financials), a bank focused on small and medium-sized enterprise (SME) lending in Mexico. The company has been growing its share of the market in its home region of Nuevo Leon and in the foreign-owned factories of Mexico, known as maquiladoras, which supply the United States economy. Regional’s bankers are rewarded on the quality of the loans rather than loan growth and if non-performing loans (NPL) in their portfolio tip over 1% then the bankers lose their annual bonus. This helps keep the rate of loans that are not performing low, and one of the lowest in the country. We believe that Regional is attractively valued and growth should come from expansion into other areas of Mexico, including Mexico City where the company currently only has a small share of the market.

We continue to discuss our China company holdings at length, especially considering the recent stock market moves. But another area where we are doing a lot of thinking is Poland. Here we hold Allegro (Poland: Consumer Discretionary), Dino Polska (Poland: Consumer Staples) and Jerónimo Martins (Portugal: Consumer Staples), which is listed in Portugal but >50% of sales are from its Biedronka business in Poland.1 They all experienced strong growth through 2022 and 2023 as food price inflation helped them increase profits but the opposite has now happened. Deflation in food prices and rising costs have reduced profit margins.

As always, we spend most of our time continuing to understand as much as we can about the quality of the management, business franchise and financials of the companies we invest in and also continue to look for new ideas to add to the portfolio.

Voting

Voting: Q2 2025

Global Emerging Markets Leaders voting: 1 April - 30 June 2025

Voting by country of origin

Voting by proposal category

During the quarter there were 444 proposals from 33 companies to vote on. On behalf of our clients, we voted against 10 proposals and abstained from voting on 13 proposals.

We voted against changing the terms of the board at EPAM Systems as the proposed changes would require all directors to stand for election annually instead of on staggered terms. While we understand the rationale for annual elections, we believe that a staggered approach provides continuity and helps prevent excessive turnover. We also voted against changes to limit the liability of certain officers, as we believe the company has demonstrated its ability to attract and retain an admirable management team under the current structure, which encourages managers to think and act as long-term owners. Finally, we voted against the appointment of the auditor as they have been in place for over 10 years. The company has given no information on rotating its auditors, a practice we believe is important to ensure a fresh perspective is brought to its accounts. (three proposals)

We voted against a proposal at MercadoLibre to move the company’s registration from Delaware to Texas as it did not provide clear reasons for the change, and we do not believe the move to be aligned with shareholders’ interests. (one proposal)

We voted against the recasting of votes (the ability for voters to change their original votes on a particular matter in response to new information or changes to a proposal) for directors and the supervisory council at RaiaDrogasil. We believe the principle of recasting votes for an amended group of candidates is poor practice and would prefer the group to be resubmitted for voting. (two proposals)

We voted against the appointment of the auditor at Sunny Optical Technology as they have been in place for over 10 years. The company has given no information on rotating its auditors, a practice we believe is important to ensure a fresh perspective is brought to its accounts. (one proposal)

We voted against the election of a director at Trip.com due to the company's lack of disclosureregarding director attendance, the number of board meetings held, and the voting results from the previous year. Our aim is to encourage greater transparency and adoption of global governance standards. (one proposal)

We voted against the recasting of votes for the supervisory council at WEG as we believe the principle of recasting votes for an amended group of candidates is poor practice and would prefer the group to be resubmitted for voting. We also abstained from voting on a request for a separate board election and the election of a supervisory council position. According to Brazilian voting practices, we are unable to vote for this proposal while simultaneously supporting the board in its candidate elections. (two proposals)

We abstained from voting on proposals relating to the accounts and acts of the board at Regional. At the time of voting, the company had not released its annual report or its audited financial statements, leaving us without significant information to make an informed decision. (10 proposals)

We abstained from voting on the establishment of a supervisory council at TOTVS as the company had not disclosed which candidates would be up for election to serve on the council. (two proposals)

We voted against a shareholder proposal regarding simple majority voting at EPAM Systems as this topic was already covered by the company's own proposal, which we supported. (one proposal)
