Although most Asian equity markets performed strongly for the month, given the fund's observed beta was almost zero in this period the manager has attributed the fund's performance to their own alpha generating strategies. This result also puts the fund back in the black for 2009 (+0.96 per cent). The manager is looking to gradually increase gross exposure in the months ahead as volatility declines and there are indications that the fund's investment processes are generating alpha again.
