Key information
DJE - Zins & Dividende invests globally, primarily in bonds and equities, and is free of benchmark constraints. The fund seeks to generate a stable performance while emphasising an absolute return approach with the aim of avoiding losses as far as possible. Through differentiated weighting of the asset classes bonds and equities which are characterised by high dividends and substance, the fund aims to generate regular interest income on the one hand and to achieve the most sustained positive performance possible with low volatility on the other. When selecting shares, the fund management pays attention to stable dividend payments and also to an investor-friendly corporate policy with capital returns and share buybacks (total shareholder return). The fund's flexible investment approach enables it to adapt quickly to the constantly changing market conditions. To reduce the risk of capital fluctuations, at least 50% of the fund's assets are invested in bonds on a permanent basis. The equity exposure is at least 25% and is limited to a maximum of 50%. Currency risks are hedged depending on market conditions.

Investment approach
The DJE – Zins & Dividende aims to deliver - over a full market cycle - a constant absolute return in all market conditions no matter the market direction. On the bond side the DJE in-house research team tries to selectively filter out of the complete bond universe the most promising investment ideas. The DJE – Zins & Dividende will mainly invest in bonds issued by public bodies and corporations rated at least investment grade. On the equity side the well-established investment approach of the DJE dividend strategy is based on the recognition that, in the long term, most of the overall performance of an equity investment comes from the compounding effect generated by reinvested dividends. Long-term investigations of international stock markets show that only slightly more than half of the profits are caused by price increases and the other half due to dividend effects. The attractive dividend yield currently provided by companies and the good earning offers further dividend growth potential. Considerations like these, in combination with the absolute return approach of DJE – Zins & Dividende, should lead to an attractive risk/return profile of the fund, which should also in volatile markets be maintained by allowing the management to flexibly allocate between equity and bonds respectively cash.

Monthly Commentary
Despite rising consumer and producer prices worldwide central banks in the US and the euro area were relaxed and maintained their expansionary monetary policies in May. In doing so they gave priority to financial stability instead of containing inflation. In addition, a very strong balance sheet season supported equity markets. Investors anticipate the first Fed rate hike in December 2022. In addition, most economic indicators rose including purchasing managers' indices in the US, China and the euro area. Rising inflation has had little impact on the bond markets so far. Yields of the 10-year German Bund rose slightly from -0.20% to -0.18% remaining negative. Yields of its US counterpart, on the other hand, fell slightly from 1.63% to 1.59%. In this market environment the price of the DJE - Zins & Dividende remained almost stable with a slight minus in height of -0.10%. At sector level the highest price gains in May came from credit institutions, oil & gas and financial services, followed by the cyclical consumer goods and basic materials. The sectors retail, travel & leisure, technology and media suffered losses. The fund benefited from its investments in the sectors healthcare and industrial. In addition the consumer discretionary and financial sector also delivered encouraging results. The highest value contributions came from the Bonn-based logistics company Deutsche Post, the US investment company BlackRock and the Mainz-based biotechnology company BioNTech. Burdening for the fund’s performance was the performance of the sectors information technology, cyclical consumer goods and telecommunications. On the equity side the Hong Kong industrial holding Kingboard Holdings and the Danish wind turbine manufacturer Vestas Wind Systems performed disappointing. During the month the fund's management slightly increased the sectors healthcare, basic materials and chemicals. On the other hand, the technology and retail sector were slightly reduced. The fund's equity exposure was 49.01% (49.72% previous month). On the bond side, short-term corporate bonds, which tend to have a lower credit rating than investment grade, delivered a positive contribution to the fund's performance in May. On the other hand, long-term corporate bonds of all credit ratings slowed down the fund's performance - a consequence of the slight rise of the yields of long-term government bonds. Over the month the fund's management bought short-term US government bonds and medium-term corporate bonds of the telecommunications sector.
