Market environment
• In August, yield curves steepened on both sides of the Atlantic. In the US, the move was pronounced, with the 2Y falling by -34 bps versus -14 bps for the 10Y, as markets priced in rate cuts. In Germany, the shift was modest, with the 2Y down -2 bps and the 10Y up +3 bps.
• August was another good month for emerging assets. Central banks maintained an accommodative stance, with rate cuts in countries such as Mexico and Indonesia. This supportive policy backdrop contributed to a rally in both EM local and external bonds over the month. While EM Equities gave back part of their solid gains.
• On currencies, the dollar eased in August amid Fed rate cut expectations. Emerging market FX outperformed, supported by attractive carry, though the Indonesian rupiah fell by more than 1% in a single day at month-end, prompting central bank intervention.
