EnvironmentGlobal equities finished 2017 in fine style, with many indices hitting all-time highs. The ongoingimprovement in the world's economy and a strong corporate reporting season drove this. Sentimentalso received a fillip after US President Trump signed his much-vaunted $1.5 trillion tax cut into law.As with much of the year, politics remained to the fore. This included a vote for independence inCatalonia (rejected by Madrid), the formation of the European Union’s first far-right government inAustria and a landslide snap election victory for Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe. Meanwhile,Brexit talks progressed to the second phase after the striking of a last-minute deal.Bond markets were volatile in the final quarter of 2017. There was another interest rate hike in theUS, while in the UK the Bank of England raised interest rates for the first time in more than adecade. Global government bonds did manage to deliver a small positive return. In the UK, thebreakthrough in Brexit negotiations was positive for gilts. Meanwhile, the announcement that theEuropean Central Bank would reduce its bond-buying programme more gradually than expectedbenefited European bonds. Corporate bonds experienced a positive quarter given the generallyrobust global economic environment and solid corporate earnings.UK commercial real estate delivered positive performance during the fourth quarter, concluding arelatively rewarding year for investors. Income returns remained strong, supported by robustoccupational demand, while capital values also strengthened over the year. UK investment volumesheld up well, still largely driven by overseas buyers. Demand for industrial assets was particularlybuoyant, as favourable fundamentals and the security of long-lease income continued to attractinvestors. As a result, the sector delivered the strongest returns over the quarter and the year.
ActivityWe review the Strategic Asset Allocation (SAA) for each of the MyFolio funds every quarter, with theaim of ensuring that we continue to meet investors’ long-term interests. Following the most recentreview, we made no changes to the SAA model.
There were no Tactical Asset Allocation changes to the MyFolio Active funds over the period.Meanwhile, we continue to seek growth opportunities in the funds alongside income in a world oflow yields. Despite historically low growth, there should be cyclical opportunities as economicactivity broadens out, so company profits may be sustained. Political risks have dampened but couldstill surprise investors, positively or negatively. In addition, monetary policy does not need to tightenaggressively as underlying inflation is restrained. Specifically, the funds continue to favour growthassets over defensive and specifically global equities through overweight allocations (relative to theSAA to US, European, Japanese and Asia Pacific equities, while maintaining an underweightallocation to UK equities. We continue to hold underweight allocations in global index-linked bondsand Euro-denominated corporate bonds in addition to the underweight allocation to UK commercialproperty. Please note that allocations to specific asset classes may not apply at all risk levels.

13/16Standard Life Ireland MyFolio Market funds - combined updates and commentary - January 2018
Market outlookGlobal equity markets enter 2018 on a sound footing. The world economy is growing at a robustrate, which is feeding into healthy corporate profits. Central banks have started to withdrawmonetary stimulus, although any future moves will be measured and data-dependent. Challengesremain, notably around geopolitics, the US debt ceiling and potential policy missteps. China couldalso slow more sharply than expected. Nonetheless, the overall the outlook is encouraging. The outlook for bonds is generally less positive. However, there is enough uncertainty to make itunlikely that government bonds will fall in value significantly. Valuations in some parts of thecorporate bond market are a little stretched. However, we believe that the fairly benignmacroeconomic environment should provide support.UK real estate dynamics remain supportive, although we expect returns to moderate as the economyexperiences weaker growth in 2018. Although Brexit negotiations progressed at the end of 2017,the full economic impact remains unknown and this will continue to affect sentiment towards UKcommercial real estate. Despite this uncertainty, we expect real estate to remain attractive toinvestors seeking a source of sustainable income.
