CADIZ BCI MONEY MARKET FUND

The Cadiz Money Market Fund remains true to its mandate by consistently providing returns that outperform cash.  While the fund remains strategically positioned to take advantage of elevated interest rates, we are cognisant of the dynamics in the interest rate environment as we enter the second half of the calendar year. Managed within its prescribed mandate constraints, the fund is consistently outperforming its benchmark, the Alexander Forbes Short Term Fixed Interest (SteFI) composite index. In addition, it diligently ensures the maintenance of adequate liquidity levels while keeping volatility of returns low. 

CADIZ BCI ENHANCED INCOME FUND

The fund benefitted significantly from the strong performance of its exposure to nominal and inflation-linked bonds during the month of June. The exposure to floating rate notes and a diverse array of money market instruments also contributed to the positive performance achieved over the period. The fund maintained its long-standing track-record of delivering low volatility returns and focusing on growing wealth while limiting downside risks. Trading activities implemented during the month were driven by cash flows and reinvestment strategies, aligning with the fund’s objective of prudent portfolio management.

The combined exposure to nominal and inflation-linked bonds stood the fund in good stead during the month, as these asset classes delivered positive returns for the period. The fund’s diversified exposure to floating rate notes also made favourable contributions to performance. Trading activities during the month included the deployment of cash, re-investment of maturing instruments and active duration management to match the investment strategy and investment view. The fund remains actively managed by the team to take opportunities as they present themselves and to manage prevailing risks.
