„Money in seriously large amounts moves in the world in the form of bonds. In truth, a bond is nothing more than a fancy name for a loan contract: parties agree on the time when the money is disbursed, the interest rate, and the repayment.“

Prospectus
February 2025: The portfolio was supplemented with bank securities
Kristo Oidermaa and Romet Enok, Fund Manager
We expanded our bond portfolio with securities from two banks in the region. At the beginning of the month, we acquired five-year bonds of Poland’s major bank Pekao on the secondary market, with an expected annual yield of approximately 4%. Additionally, we participated in the primary issuance of subordinated bonds for the European market by Luminor Bank. These perpetual bonds carry an annual interest rate of 7.375% and are callable in six years. This was also one of our portfolio’s most notable movers in February – by the end of the month, these bonds had gained nearly 2% in value in addition to accrued interest. The key question for the bond market at the moment is whether the European Central Bank will continue cutting interest rates after early March. At the same time, bond prices – particularly for companies with relatively weaker credit ratings – have risen significantly.
January 2025: Gold helped increase portfolio returns
Kristo Oidermaa and Romet Enok, Fund Manager
Responding to the European Central Bank’s rate cut at the end of the month, the European bond market finished January with a flat result. The market for corporate bonds and lower-rated borrowers, by contrast, achieved a gain of nearly 0.5%. Our portfolio performed slightly better, mainly due to an investment outside the bond market, as gold once again appreciated by nearly 6% over the month.
December 2024: Increased real estate allocation
Kristo Oidermaa and Romet Enok, Fund Manager
We participated in EfTEN Real Estate Fund’s share offering on the Tallinn Stock Exchange. Building a second asset class within the fund, alongside bonds, through real estate investments has progressed well and, as of the end of the year, accounts for nearly 10% of the fund’s assets. While the main segments of the bond market ended December in negative territory, the S fund achieved a return of +0.3%. The fund also outperformed European corporate and government bond markets throughout the year. The most significant contributors to this success were our investment in physical gold and the long-term bonds of Eesti Energia, subscribed to during the summer.

A dizzying rise in the US stock markets
Andres Viisemann, Head of LHV Pension Funds
The year 2024 turned out to be unexpectedly strong for financial markets, with the MSCI World Index, which tracks the performance of developed country stock markets, gaining 19.2%. This was primarily driven by an extraordinarily powerful rise in US stocks. Since the share of US companies in the World Index is nearly 74%, it is understandable why the global stock market index performed so well.
