Investment strategy
The fund takes advantage of the cyclical interplay between the asset classes bonds and equities. The focus is on international bonds, both corporate and government bonds, in various currencies. The fund also takes advantage of selected opportunities on the equity markets. This allows it to diversify when bonds are temporarily weak and to achieve a positive long-term performance. The allocation between equities, bonds and cash as well as the analysis of the equity and bond markets is based on the FMM method, the proven investment approach of DJE Kapital AG (for more information on the FMM method, please visit www.dje.de). The broad diversification across different asset classes forms the basis for a favourable risk/return ratio.

Monthly Commentary
The fund management actively controlled the duration of the bond portion of the portfolio. It was initially extended using futures, but later reduced again. In the basic portfolio, the term was also extended by exchanging bonds from the travel sector. In contrast, papers from the construction sector have been reduced. The average remaining term of the bonds in the fund (including derivatives) was 3.02 years at the end of the month and was therefore almost unchanged compared to the end of January (3.05 years). In terms of stocks, positions were built up in the technology and healthcare sectors. On the other hand, the weightings for utilities and insurance stocks were reduced. At the end of December, the equity quota including derivatives was 22.34%, slightly lower than in the previous month (24.4%). The hedging of the USD exposure was unwound during the month. The DWS Concept DJE Alpha Renten Global achieved a monthly performance of 0.19%.
