Atrium aims to achieve its investment objectives by investing across a range of asset classes on a global basis that provide exposure to different risk factors.

Each asset is included in the Portfolio for its ability to contribute to returns on a stand alone basis.


The investment universe comprises of 3 broad categories - Preservers, Growth Drivers and Diversifiers.

65b363d1-04c0-46fd-a5b3-9c5cf1ef099e

PreserversAssets that protect the portfolio during periods of heightened equity market volatility and preserve capital, such as cash, government bonds and high quality investment grade bonds.

a84d316c-ccee-47c8-9b38-d120ca8079a0

Growth DriversAssets that are expected to deliver higher rates of return over time with higher levels of associated volatility (risk).
This predominantly comprises equities but also includes other assets that are highly correlated to equities such as listed property and infrastructure.

9e1cc6d1-d7ee-4ed0-8787-04b57e8e460c

DiversifiersAssets that generate additional real returns, with performance that is typically uncorrelated to the growth drivers and preservers within the portfolio.
Importantly, they are a source of portfolio diversification away from equity market and interest rate risks, such as liquid alternatives and private markets.

Market update

Global share markets rallied in May, buoyed by a temporary improvement in US-China trade relations. Following heightened tariff tensions in April, the two countries agreed to a 90-day reduction in tariffs, sparking renewed investor optimism. However, sentiment softened later in the month as the US introduced new technology restrictions on China, causing trade talks to stall.

Meanwhile, the US initiated trade negotiations with the UK, lifting tariffs on British steel and giving the EU a July deadline to finalise a trade agreement.

The US Federal Reserve held interest rates steady at 4.25%–4.50%, noting that the US economy remains “solid” and resilient despite ongoing trade uncertainties. In contrast, the Reserve Bank of Australia lowered its cash rate to 3.85% after core inflation returned to the 2–3% target range. The RBA also revised its 2025 growth forecast down to 2.1%, citing increased global uncertainty and heightened market volatility.

Equity markets delivered strong performances. The NASDAQ Composite surged 9.6%, led by gains in technology giants such as NVIDIA, Tesla, and Meta Platforms. Australian equities also advanced, supported by easing US-China tensions and the RBA’s rate cut. However, investor sentiment was tempered by Moody’s downgrade of the US credit rating, concerns over the sustainability of the US fiscal position, and rising government bond yields.

We see compelling opportunities in non-US equities, government bonds, private credit, and listed real assets. The US dollar appears increasingly vulnerable, while currencies such as the Australian dollar and Japanese yen offer relative value. In a climate of ongoing market volatility and uncertain global trade policy, diversification remains essential.

Performance

The Portfolio delivered strong performance in May, supported by broad gains across equity markets. Positive contributions came from Australian equities, global shares, emerging markets, and listed real assets. However, currency exposure modestly detracted from returns, due to a weaker US dollar.

In global equities, the US led the rally, with other developed markets also performing well. The Hyperion Global Growth Companies Fund outperformed, driven by a 22% gain in Tesla, its largest holding. In contrast, the Antipodes Global Fund underperformed, along with our equal-weight US index ETF, which lagged broader benchmarks due to outsized returns from large-cap US tech stocks and weaker performance from defensive sectors.

The Atrium Alternatives Fund contributed positively to performance in May. Gains were recorded in Crown Diversified Macro, Two Sigma Risk Premia, and Man Alternative Risk Premia, while One River Systematic Trend detracted.

In fixed income, the Atrium Enhanced Fixed Income Fund added value. Credit markets rebounded strongly as recession fears—sparked by April’s trade tensions—subsided. High-yield exposures such as KKR Global Credit Opportunities and CQS Credit Multi Asset performed well, benefitting from narrowing credit spreads. Conversely, the Russell International Bond Fund posted a slight decline, impacted by rising US government bond yields.

Portfolio changes

During May, the Portfolio increased its allocation to the Russell Global Listed Real Assets Fund and reduced exposure to the Atrium Alternatives Fund.

In Australian equities, the Portfolio completed its transition from an Atrium-managed strategy to a systematic active Australian equity separately managed account, operated by Russell Investment Management.

Outlook

We remain cautiously optimistic despite escalated geopolitical risks surrounding US involvement in the Israel Iran conflict. Markets are on watch for a broader fallout, however outside of higher oil prices, the impact of this conflict looks to be regionalised. While supportive monetary policy continues to provide a positive backdrop for markets, rising uncertainty related to tariffs and government policy decisions has elevated overall risk.

The Portfolio is well-positioned to navigate this environment, with a strong emphasis on diversification across asset classes, strategies, and geographies to help manage potential volatility.
