13 June 2011: Royal Capital is proud to announce that Royal Capital MENA
Fixed Income Plus Fund has been assigned an “A” fund rating by Standard & Poor’s
Fund Services (S&P). It is the first time that S&P rated a fixed income fund in
the region and this rating is a testimony to Royal Capital superior capabilities
in the MENA fixed income markets.
The MENA Fixed Income Fund’s rating has positioned the fund as a benchmark for
other fixed income funds in the region not only for the Fund’s high standards of
quality based on its investment philosophy, process and risk awareness but also
for the consistency of its strong risk adjusted performance during a volatile
period for regional markets (restructuring of Dubai world, the European
sovereign crisis and the Arab spring).
The fund is one the best performer of its category since its launch, and has
delivered an annualized return of 10.97% net of fees versus 9.76% for its
benchmark (measured from inception to 31st May 2011). This is the result of a
very disciplined top down process focusing on the global macro-economic climate
along with an active country allocation and bottom up process focusing on credit
selections.

asset management and investment banking firms in the region, offering a wide
spectrum of investment services to institutional and qualified high net worth
clients.
