September was another volatile month with the equity markets down for the third month in a row. Investors started factoring in the possibility of a double dip scenario as macroeconomic indicators continued to deteriorate. At the same time, sentiment remained weak due to lack of clarity from European policymakers to handle the sovereign debt crisis. FSF's Net Asset Value finished the month down 1.78%. Equities were the major detractor to the performance as equity markets, as measured by the MSCI World Islamic Index, were down close to 10% for the month. The investment manager kept its powder dry for the majority of the month and added to its equity allocation toward month end. In addition, further capital was added to the real estate yielding portfolio.
Asset Allocation as at 30 September 2011:
- 18.4% in Cash and Cash Like Instruments
- 8.0% in Islamic Income
- 27.3% in Equities
- 3.6% in Alternatives
- 19.1% in Private Equity
- 23.6% in Real Estate
