Lakson Outlook - June 2013

Economic & Markets Review - Pakistan Economic Review Pakistan's headline inflation as measured by the Consumer Price Index ("CPI") for FY13 clocked in at 7.4%, declining by 365 bps on YoY basis. It was Pakistan's first year of singledigit inflation after FY07, falling well below the government's target of 9.5%. The CPI index for the month of June '13 increased by 5.9% YoY, beating the average consensus estimates of 7.0%. On MoM basis, the CPI index edged up by 0.7% only. Going forward inflation is expected to go up due to the inflationary measures announced in the budget and expected higher Rupee depreciation in FY14. State Bank of Pakistan ("SBP") continued its monetary easing and cut the discount rate by 50 bps in its monetary policy announcement bringing the discount rate down to 9.0%. The SBP acknowledged that the pressure on foreign exchange reserves and external account still persist, but the motivation to cut the policy rate came in from positive change in sentiments post May '13 elections and widened real interest rate at current headline CPI levels. Pakistan also held staff level meetings with IMF and agreed on a USD 5.3 billion Extended Fund Facility that will be disbursed over a period of 36 months subject to the final approval from IMF Executive Board. The current account posted a deficit of USD 346 million in May '13, taking the cumulative deficit for the 11MFY13 to USD 1,952 million compared to a deficit of USD 3,920 million in the 11MFY12. The current account deficit declined by 50% YoY mainly due to a 12% decline in trade deficit and 5.7% better remittances. During FY13, the foreign exchange reserves of the country declined by USD 4.28 billion owing to a weak external account position coupled with IMF repayments of USD ~2.70 billion. The total foreign exchange reserves of the country stood at USD 11.01 billion, while the reserves held by SBP stood at USD 6.01 billion. The Pak Rupee depreciated by 5.4% against the green-back during FY13 and USD/PKR ended the year at 99.66. Fixed Income Market The SBP continued its current cycle of monetary easing during the month of June with a 50 basis point reduction in the discount rate. The SBP decided to place a higher weight to declining inflation and low private sector credit relative to risks to the balance of payments position. The GoP raised PKR 374 billion through two T-Bill auctions against a maturity of PKR 219 billion. Market participants regained their enthusiasm for T-Bills as the bid-tocover ratio for these two auctions came in at 1.40x (vs. 1.30x in May and 0.65x in April) with 68% of total bids were made in the 12-month tenor. The cut-off yields of the 3, 6 and 12-month T-Bills came down by 41, 42, and 41 bps respectively from the cut-offs of the last auction in May '13. Active participation in the PIB auction was also witnessed in June as investors placed bids of PKR 50 billion against the auction target of PKR 25 billion and maturity of PKR 29 billion. Compared to the May-auction, cut-off yields on the 3, 5 and 10year bonds fell by 39bps, 29bps and 5bps respectively. M2 growth during FY13 came in at 17.21% compared to 14.14% in FY12, mainly driven by a surge in government borrowing for budgetary support that stood at PKR 1,591 billion compared to PKR 1,296 billion in FY12. As a result of a 50bps cut in discount rate the 6-month KIBOR declined by 49bps since May-end to 9.09% while the 12-month KIBOR declined by 45bps to 9.41%. Equity Market Review After posting a massive return of 15% during May '13, the local equity market took a breather in the month of June '13, declining by 4% during the month. The KSE-100 index posted a return of 52% during FY13 which is its highest return in the past 9 fiscal years. Regionally, the Pakistani market has outperformed major markets such as China and India in FY13. Foreign investors remained optimistic on the local market in the post-election environment and the FIPI inflow for June came in at USD 42 million compared to USD 271 million in May. In terms of sector-wise performance in June, cements led the way, followed by selected banks and energy scrips, while the chemicals and auto sectors trailed the market due to expectations of weak fundamentals in the months ahead. Participation in the equity markets remained largely unchanged since May, with average daily volumes of the KSE-100 Index scrips posting a marginal decrease of 2% MoM. Going forward, the market's performance would be dictated by the upcoming result season and the actions taken by the Government as a result of the agreement with the IMF.

Lakson Outlook - June 2013

Economic & Markets Review - International Developed Markets

MSCI World Index posted a decline of 2.61% in June '13. After increasing for seven consecutive months, the longest streak since 2009, US equities ran into stiff headwinds in June, the last month of the second quarter. Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke unnerved markets when he commented that the Fed might scale back its monthly asset purchases later this year, possibly ending them in mid-2014. The program has helped keep interest rates low and sustain the momentum propelling stocks. In addition, first-quarter US economic growth was revised downward from earlier estimates, which also offered resistance to advancing share prices. The Commerce Department issued its final assessment of first-quarter growth, revising it downward to an annual rate of 1.8% from 2.4% previously. Consumer spending rose 0.3% in May as personal income increased 0.5%, and the savings rate went up to 3.2% the same month, the highest level since December 2012. US consumers have been benefiting from low inflation, which remains within the Fed's comfort range. The European region endured a significant sell-off in June. Every stock market in the region declined. Recent data suggest that the region remains mired in a protracted recession. The Eurozone economy has posted six consecutive quarters of lower economic growth, and the ECB forecasts that GDP growth will likely be under pressure for the rest of the year. The bloc remains challenged to generate economic growth due to austerity measures and record unemployment, which topped 12% in May. The MSCI Europe Index posted a decline of 5.3%. The Bank of Japan, at the direction of Prime Minister Abe, is moving aggressively to bolster the Japanese economy, but the central bank declined to announce additional stimulus at its mid-June meeting.

Emerging Markets

The MSCI Emerging Markets Index declined by 6.8% during June '13. Emerging markets stocks slumped in June after the Federal Reserve clarified its plans to begin winding down the highly accommodative monetary policies that have fueled gains in the developing world for the past few years. The Fed's exit plans added to worries about slowing growth across the emerging world and instability in major markets like Brazil and Turkey, where big street protests erupted. The Fed's remarks contributed to steep currency declines in many emerging markets, with currencies in India, Brazil, and Turkey hitting multiyear or record lows against the US Dollar. Stocks in China slumped as short-term lending rates climbed to record highs in June, raising worries that a cash crunch would weaken an already slowing economy. Indian stocks retreated amid heavy selling by foreign investors, which pushed its currency, the rupee, to a record low. The weak currency has reduced the odds of further interest rate cuts by India's central bank, which left its benchmark rate unchanged in June after cutting it three times this year. Brazil's market fared the worst, slumping more than 12%, as mass protests against corruption, the eroding popularity of its president, and a sharply weaker currency took their toll. Analysts believe that Brazil's weaker currency will lead to higher inflation and higher interest rates, which in turn will damage growth and consumer sentiment and possibly cause higher unemployment.

Commodities

The DBC Commodity Index declined by 4.5% during June '13 as some of the major commodities declined during the month. Energy edged higher on supply concerns, while food prices declined on larger supply prospects, and the metals prices continued to drop. Crude oil prices rose 0.4% in June and averaged USD 99.7/bbl and reached USD 106/bbl in early July on OPEC supply outages, geopolitical tensions, and falling US stocks. The spread between WTI and Brent continued to narrow, and in early July collapsed to USD 2/bbl. Natural gas prices in the US fell by 5.3% in June on strong injections into storage. Demand has been sluggish due to a relatively mild start to summer, and lower coal-to-gas displacement. Precious Metals was the worst performing sector this month. Gold and Silver were among the hardest hit commodities from the Fed's statements on quantitative easing. Industrial Metals prices dropped in June, down for a 4th straight month on concerns about slowing growth in China and expectations of QE tapering. Stocks increased for most metals as supply gains continue to exceed demand, with the exception of lead and zinc where inventories fell and prices edged higher. The warm weather hurt the Agriculture sector. The Grains dropped due to adequately moist soil and larger-than-expected crop yields. Unlike the grains, the Softs rose during the month. Cotton had the best performance for the first half of 2013, driven by stockpiling from China and merchant concern over U.S. supply tightness.

Lakson Income Fund

MUFAP’s Recommended Format

Investment Objective The investment objective of the Lakson Income Fund is to provide competitive total return through investment in a diversified portfolio of fixed income securities. Investments will be made in a variegated mix of short term, medium term and longer term maturities depending on the assessment by the Investment Team of interest rate trends and prospective returns. Performance Review The Lakson Income Fund ("LIF") provided an annualized yield of 7.79% for the month of June '13, compared to the Benchmark return (average return of all income funds) of 11.17%. The LIF underperformed the average income fund by 338bps. The yield since inception (13th November 2009) of the LIF stands at an annualized rate of 10.87%, compared to the Benchmark return of 8.25% p.a. During the month the LIF increased exposure in bank deposits as the banks offered better rates than T-Bills due to June end factor. Yields on the T-Bills declined due to a 50bps cut in the discount rate by the SBP therefore the exposure in bank deposits was increased to 19%. Exposure was also increased in TDRs to 29% compared to 15% at the start of the month. As of June 30, 2013, the WAM of the LIF portfolio was 410 days compared to 357 days at the start of the month. The WAM increased during the month as the fund size declined during the month due to quarter end redemptions. As of June 30, 2013, 68% of the portfolio of the LIF comprised of liquid instruments that can be liquidated within six (6) business days keeping in view the prevailing market conditions. In a situation where the income funds are providing very volatile returns, the standard deviation of annualized monthly returns of the LIF is only 1.82% compared to 3.83% for the Benchmark.

WWF Disclosure As of June 30, 2013 the LIF has maintained provisions against Workers' Welfare Fund's liability to the tune of PKR 8.49 million. If the same were not made the NAV per unit of the LIF would be higher by PKR 0.5279. If the LIF would not have made the WWF provisions during FY13, the return of the LIF for FY13 would be higher by 0.19%. For details investors are advised to read the Note 10.1 of the latest Financial Statements (Quarterly Report as of March 31, 2013) of the LIF.
