PERFORMANCE REVIEW for the month ended 30 Nov 2018

Emerging market equities rebounded in November, outperforming global developed markets. The MSCI Emerging Markets Index (“Index”) returned 2.97% in local currency terms during the month. All three region groups within the Index delivered positive local currency returns in November. Led by China and India, emerging Asia was the top performing region group in local currency terms. Emerging Europe, Middle East, and Africa (“EMEA”) was buoyed by positive returns in South Africa, the largest country weight within the region group. Within the emerging Latin America region, Brazil was the top performing country in local currency terms. Real estate, industrials, and information technology were the top performing sectors within the Index during the month. Energy, materials, and telecommunication services were the weakest performing sectors in local currency terms.

Causeway Emerging Markets Fund (“Fund”) underperformed the Index in November 2018. We use both bottom-up and top-down factor categories to forecast alpha (return in excess of the Index) for the stocks in the Fund’s investable universe. Our bottom-up value factor category was a strong indicator in November and the factor is now outperforming over most recent periods. The earnings growth factor category underperformed during the month. The price momentum factor category, as measured by our technical factors, was negative in November and has been the poorest performing factor over most recent periods. Of our top-down factors, the country and currency factors were positive indicators during the month while the macroeconomic factor was neutral. The sector factor was a negative indicator of performance during the month, but this factor has delivered positive performance over longer measurement periods.

Over the month, Fund positioning in emerging Asia detracted from relative performance versus the Index, primarily driven by negative stock selection in India and South Korea. Within the EMEA region, an underweight position in South Africa detracted from relative performance. Positioning in the emerging Latin America region contributed to performance, due in part to positive stock selection in Brazil. From a sector perspective, the largest detractors from relative performance were financials, information technology, and materials. Positioning in the consumer discretionary, telecommunication services, and industrials sectors contributed to relative performance. The largest stock-level detractors from relative performance included an underweight position in electronic & print media platform operator, Naspers Ltd. (South Africa), and overweight positions in electronic component manufacturing company, Catcher Technology Co. Ltd. (Taiwan), and diversified metals & mining operator, Vale SA (Brazil). The greatest stock-level contributors to relative performance included overweight positions in online services company, Tencent Holdings Ltd.(China), and restaurant franchisee, Jubilant FoodWorks Ltd. (India), and an underweight position in oil & gas exploration company, Petroleo Brasileiro SA (Brazil).
