| Manager Comments | KIS remain wary of the downside risks caused by the ongoing repercussions from the Greek debt restructuring as well as potential for further tensions between Israel and Iran. However, in the absence of these the manager expects equity markets to continue to perform, although probably not as strongly as in the first two months of the year. In this environment KIS believe that as the macro issues subside, stock-picking will be rewarded which will benefit the Fund's investment process, although they will reduce risk again if this does not eventuate. |
