Since the first publication of the S&P Indices Versus Active Funds (SPIVA) U.S. Scorecard in 2002, S&P Dow Jones Indices has been the de facto scorekeeper of the ongoing active versus passive debate.

The SPIVA MENA Scorecard measures the performance of actively managed MENA equity funds against their respective benchmarks over various time horizons, providing statistics on outperformance rates, survivorship rates and fund performance dispersion.

MID-YEAR 2022 HIGHLIGHTS

MENA equities plummeted in Q2, but managed to post slight YTD gains thanks to a stellar Q1, led in particular by the S&P Pan Arab Composite LargeMidCap Index.  The majority of funds across all categories outperformed their respective benchmarks, with just 27% of MENA Equity funds underperforming the broad S&P Pan Arab Composite (see Exhibit 1).

SPIVA® MENA Mid-Year 2022 - Exhibit 1

  • Funds in this category gained 6.76% and 8.33% on an equal- and asset-weighted bases, respectively, over a 10-year period, implying that larger funds performed relatively better than smaller funds on average.

SUMMARY

The SPIVA Latin America Scorecard measures the performance of actively managed funds across Brazil, Chile and Mexico against their respective benchmarks over various time horizons, providing statistics on outperformance rates, survivorship rates and fund performance dispersion.

Since the first publication of the S&P Indices Versus Active Funds (SPIVA) U.S. Scorecard in 2002, S&P Dow Jones Indices has been the de facto scorekeeper of the ongoing active versus passive debate.

Mid-Year 2022 Highlights

In the first half of 2022, performance among Latin American active managers was greatly mixed across countries. Mexico was a rare bright spot, with less than 50% of managers underperforming the S&P/BMV IRT. The majority of active managers in Brazil and Chile failed to outperform over longer periods.

SPIVA Latin America Mid-Year 2022 Exhibit 1

Mexico

The S&P/BMV IRT lost 9.3% over the first half of 2022, and 63% of active managers outperformed the S&P/BMV IRT over that period.

Fewer funds were able to maintain their record of outperformance over the five-year period, with 80% of the funds underperforming their benchmark.

Coupled with the outperformance of most active managers in the first half of the year, the survival rates of active funds in Mexico were among the highest in Latin America, at 100%, 94%, 91% and 78% over the 1-, 3-, 5-, and 10-year periods, respectively.

Brazil

The S&P Brazil BMI fell by 8.94% YTD, and 57% of Brazil Large-Cap funds underperformed the index. Their long-term record was even worse, with 80% of funds underperforming over a 10-year period.

Large-cap companies only declined by 6.15% YTD, as measured by the S&P Brazil LargeCap. Funds in this category lost 8.14% and 7.34% on equal- and asset-weighted bases, respectively, over the same period.

Chile

Chilean equities were a bright spot, with the S&P Chile BMI up 20.46% YTD. However, 94% of Chile Equity funds underperformed the index over the same period, and 98% of Chilean Equity funds underperformed over 10 years.

Larger funds performed relatively better than smaller funds over one and three years periods on average, while smaller funds outperformed over five and ten-year periods.

Fixed Income

Meanwhile, 64% of Brazil Government Bond funds outperformed their benchmark over a six-month period. Consistent with their equity peers, rates of underperformance increased over longer periods.

Brazil Corporate Bond funds fared slightly worse, with 53% underperforming their benchmark over a six-month period.

SPIVA Canada Mid-Year 2022

Since the first publication of the S&P Indices Versus Active Funds (SPIVA) U.S. Scorecard in 2002, S&P Dow Jones Indices has been the de facto scorekeeper of the ongoing active versus passive debate.

The SPIVA Canada Scorecard measures the performance of Canadian actively managed funds against their respective benchmarks over various time horizons, covering large-, mid- and small-cap as well as international and global equity funds.

Mid-Year 2022 Highlights

In the turmoil of the first half of 2022, actively managed funds in Canada navigated the challenges relatively well. Less than one-half of active funds underperformed their benchmarks in the Canadian Equity (43%), Canadian Focused Equity (43%), Canadian Dividend & Income Equity (48%) and Global Equity (47%) categories (see Exhibit 1 and Report 1). Underperformance rates generally increased with measurement horizons, with a cross-category average of 90% of active funds underperforming over the past 10 years.

Exhibit 1

- Canadian Equity Funds: The S&P/TSX Composite fell 9.9% in H1 2022 and Canadian Equity funds dropped 9.0% and 9.3% on equal and asset-weighted bases, respectively. Underperformance rates hit 43% over six months, climbing to 83%, 96% and 82% over the 3-, 5- and 10-year horizons, respectively.

- Canadian Focused Equity Funds: The blended benchmark of 50% S&P/TSX Composite + 25% S&P 500® + 25% S&P EPAC LargeMidCap fell 14.7% in H1 2022, outperforming 43% of Canadian Focused Equity funds. This rose to 68%, 91% and 97% over the 3-, 5- and 10-year horizons, respectively.

- Canadian Small-/Mid-Cap Equity Funds: The S&P/TSX Completion Index dipped 10.9% in H1 2022, and 80% of Canadian Equity Small-Mid-Cap funds underperformed the index. Funds in this category lost 16.4% and 15.6% on equal- and asset-weighted bases, respectively, over six months.

- U.S. Equity Funds: The S&P 500 shed 18.3% in the first six months of 2022, and 61.3% of U.S. Equity funds underperformed the index. Very few funds in the U.S. Equity category outperformed over the long term, with 97%, 95% and 97% underperforming over 3-, 5- and 10-year horizons, respectively.

- International Equity Funds: 64% of International Equity funds trailed the S&P EPAC LargeMidCap, and 87% and 93% underperformed over 5- and 10-year periods, respectively.

Since the first publication of the S&P Indices Versus Active Funds (SPIVA) U.S. Scorecard in 2002, S&P Dow Jones Indices has been the de facto scorekeeper of the ongoing active versus passive debate.  First published in 2014, the semiannual SPIVA Europe Scorecard reports on the performance of actively managed European equity funds as compared to the performance of category-appropriate S&P DJI benchmark indices, providing statistics on outperformance rates, survivorship rates and fund performance dispersion.

Mid-Year 2022 Highlights

A majority of actively managed funds underperformed their respective benchmark in nearly every fund category included in our Europe scorecard.  Among the major regional markets, Germany Equity funds had the best (i.e., lowest) underperformance rate in H1, at 55%, followed closely by underperformance rates of 57% and 58%, respectively, in U.K. Small-Cap Equity funds and Eurozone Equity funds.  The U.K. large-/mid-cap category saw the highest underperformance rate, with 96% underperforming the S&P United Kingdom LargeMidCap.  Pan-European equity funds lay in the middle, 84% undperformiing in H1 2022.  The relatively small Poland Equity category was the sole segment where a majority of active funds outperformed in H1 2022.

  • 82% of British pound sterling-denominated, and 84% euro-denominated actively managed pan-European equity funds underperformed the S&P Europe 350® in H1 2022, respectively, while only 58% of Eurozone funds underperformed the S&P Eurozone BMI.
  • Euro-denominated Global Equity funds maintained a relatively high underperformance rate over longer time horizons. Over the 10-year period ending June 2022, 98% of funds underperformed the S&P Global 1200.
  • British pound sterling-denominated U.S. Equity funds displayed a slight edge over their euro-denominated brethren; underperformance rates for the former were consistently below those of the latter across all time horizons.
