Quarterly fund commentaryLatin American equity markets delivered healthy returns during the first quarter with Brazilbeing the best performing country. Mexico also ended in positive territory - albeit modestly -despite concerns that talks surrounding the North American Free Trade Agreement areproceeding at a slow pace. However, confidence towards Brazil remains undented,particularly after the central bank left the door for further reductions in interest rates - aprospect that markets had previously discarded - when they cut the benchmark Selic-rate by25 basis points to 6.5% in March. In terms of fund positioning we are tilted towards themore economically sensitive small and medium-sized companies, particularly in Brazil, in ourbelief they are likely to provide the most attractive opportunities over the long term. In anenvironment of falling interest rates in Brazil, we favour domestic companies that are likely tobenefit from the prospect of higher consumer spending, for example retailers and serviceproviders in areas such as education. Underpinned by a pick-up in global trade and theprospect of increased infrastructure spending in the region, we also like the materials sector.Mexico is also providing more attractive opportunities in our opinion, especially amongsmaller companies.
