Giorgio Caputo
Senior Fund Manager & Head of Multi-Asset Value
The JOHCM Global Income Builder Fund is managed by JOHCM’s New York-based Multi-Asset Value team, which includes Senior Fund Managers Giorgio Caputo, Adam Gittes and Robert Hordon and Fund Manager Remy Gicquel.
Investment approach
The JOHCM team employs a differentiated bottom-up approach to investing across asset classes that is rooted in global value investing and which seeks to balance current income with the preservation and growth of capital in real (inflation-adjusted) terms over time. They seek to identify income-generative investments where they believe a margin of safety exists between their sense of the security or underlying business’s intrinsic value and the valuation reflected by the security’s market price. In normal market environments, the income level is expected to range between 3.5% and 4.5% of AUM after expenses. However, the team prioritizes the preservation of capital ahead of income generation, thus actual income distribution may fall outside these ranges.
The team invests across global equity and debt capital market and seeks to manage relatively diversified portfolios, typically investing in the securities of 80-100 debt or equity issuers. The equity exposure can range from 30% to 70% of the fund, but will generally be at least 40% of assets under management.
Capacity for the Global Income Builder strategy has been set at $10 billion, at which point JOHCM will take steps to limit additional inflows in order to protect the interests of existing investors.
Investment objective
The investment objective of the JOHCM Global Income Builder Fund is to seek a level of current income that is consistent with the preservation and long-term growth of capital in inflation-adjusted terms.
The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by applying a bottom-up, long-term global value investing philosophy across a broad range of asset classes. In a bottom-up approach, companies and securities are researched and chosen individually. The Fund normally will invest in a wide range of income-producing equity securities, including common stocks of U.S. and foreign companies that offer attractive dividend yields. The Fund also normally will invest in a wide range of fixed income instruments from markets in the United States and multiple countries around the world such as high-yield instruments (commonly referred to as ‘‘junk bonds’’), investment grade instruments and sovereign debt. Additionally, the Fund normally will invest in hybrid securities that embody elements of both equity and fixed income securities such as preferred shares and convertible bonds. The Fund may invest in securities of any maturity or investment rating, as well as unrated securities. While the Fund may hold investments in non-income producing securities, under normal market conditions at least 80% of the Fund’s assets will be comprised of income producing securities.

Capping off a very disappointing year for investors across most asset classes, the fourth quarter of 2022 was the first quarter of the year to deliver positive returns in most major equity markets. Interest rates, which had risen sharply over the year as central banks around the world grappled with inflation, were generally stable during the quarter, while non-US currencies rallied, energy prices generally eased (thanks in part to warm winter weather in Europe) and authorities in China abandoned their zero-tolerance approach to Covid. While investors remain highly concerned about a potential recession in 2023, the fourth quarter marked a sense of relief that the inflation crisis, and the attendant tightening cycle, may be in the rear-view mirror.
The S&P 500 delivered a 7.6% total return in December, as the value subindex (13.6%) substantially outperformed the growth sub-index (1.4%). Stock indices outside the United States recovered sharply from year-to-date lows reached in September and October, as foreign currencies strengthened with the ECB and BOJ moving toward tighter monetary policy. The MSCI EAFE Index (dominated by Eurozone and Japanese equities) posted a 17.3% total return. The MSCI Emerging Markets index posted a 9.7% return for the quarter, fueled mainly by a turnaround in Chinese equities (the largest country exposure in the index) following a policy shift on reopening. The MSCI China index delivered a 13.5% total return in the fourth quarter; the change in sentiment towards China likely contributed to returns across most geographies and sectors.
Fixed income markets, from both a duration and credit perspective, saw mostly mild shifts in the fourth quarter of 2022. Interest rates, which peaked in the middle of the quarter and reached levels not seen since prior to the Great Financial Crisis, rose slightly from September through to December. The 10 year Treasury yield moved from 3.83% to 3.88%, while the 2 year Treasury yield rose from 4.28% to 4.43%. Both investment grade and high yield bonds experienced credit spread tightening as risk aversion abated across markets. The ICE BofA BBB US Corporate Index Option-Adjusted Spread fell from 2.06% to 1.72%, while the ICE BofA BB US High Yield Index Option-Adjusted Spread saw a more substantial decline and fell from 3.66% at the end of September to 3.09% at the end of December. Stable interest rates and tighter spreads drove a 4.3% total return for the iBoxx USD Liquid High Yield Index and helped high yield investors claw back almost a third of their 2022 losses.
Out top contributors for the quarter were Oracle, Air Products and Chemicals and Naspers. Oracle performed well on strong earnings results, demonstrating the resilience of its business model despite industry headwinds; Oracle finished the year with a -4.7% total return, significantly better than the Nasdaq Composite Index, which delivered -32.5%. Air Products and Chemicals ended the year with strength as a play on industrial recovery as well as spending related to the Inflation Reduction Act. Naspers, the South African holding company with a large stake in Tencent, benefited from the China resurgence.
Our top detractors for the quarter were PayPal Holdings, Equitrans Midstream and Meta Platforms. Concerns mounted during the quarter over Apple’s competitive threat to PayPal in digital payments. Shares of Equitrans were weak as a result of legislative setbacks in the company’s quest to launch a pipeline project in 2023. Investors in Meta Platforms grew frustrated over the heavy investment in metaverse initiatives, although the company signalled a change in trajectory later in the quarter.
While the fourth quarter provided some meaningful relief, 2022 will register as one of the worst years in recent memory for both equity and fixed income markets. Tremendous uncertainty remains as to the extent and duration of central bank tightening needed to bring down inflation. With sharp drawdowns in equity market valuations and interest rates much higher than they were a year ago, it is difficult if not impossible to know if the worst is behind us or if further pain lies ahead. We remain focused on holdings that we believe are justified even if these macroeconomic headwinds persist, while retaining flexibility at the portfolio level to take advantage of opportunities that may emerge from the volatility.
