Index returns or a mix are used if the fund has existed for less than five years. All Managers are required to use the same methodology so you can compare the risk of different funds if you are researching more than one manager.

 Market Overview

  • Global equity markets began the new year with strong returns despite continued geo-political tensions.
  • Emerging markets were the stand-out performer, benefiting from strong local market returns in Brazil, South Korea and Taiwan.
  • Global bonds were slightly positive for the month, with continued speculation around the next Chair for the US Federal Reserve.
  • Sector leadership for the first month of 2026 came from the cyclical energy and materials sectors, while information technology took a back seat for once, finishing near the bottom of the rankings.
Fund Highlights
  • Returns for the High Growth Fund were negative for January. 
  • The stronger NZ dollar meant unhedged global equity returns were weak, and the local listed property market also had a tough start to the year after a strong 2025.
  • Across the global equity managers, WCM was the only one to outperform the benchmark.
  • The strongest performers in the local equity funds were all Australian names; Worley, NextDC and ResMed.
