These bonds offer an annual interest rate of 7.875%, and Eesti Energia is expected to repay the loan in approximately five years. In addition to bank loans, the energy provider raised funds through bonds to complete its extensive investment plan. Capital-intensive construction projects are underway in the renewable energy, network services and fuel business sectors. The bond is traded on the international market, providing an additional opportunity to profit from potential price increases.\n\nMeanwhile, the fund’s cash reserves were boosted by repayments from our direct investments.

CARÁ Health addresses the problem that more than 40 million women struggle with long-term issues after giving birth while not having full access to comprehensive and verified health and wellness resources.

The S&P 500 index, which tracks the largest US companies, reached its all-time high of 5,669 points on 16 July. Japan’s Nikkei 225 index, which on 22 February this year surpassed its peak mark of 34 years ago (38,915.87), reached 42,426.77 points on 11 July.\n\nInvestors are so used to the constant rise of stock prices and new peaks that these records hardly impressed anyone. In the second half of July, the markets gave back a little of their gains, which made the monthly changes in the largest stock indices relatively modest.\n\nHowever, on 31 July, a rare monetary policy decision was made in Japan, the impact of which may be greater and longer-lasting than interest rate adjustments by the US Federal Reserve or the European Central Bank. Namely, the Bank of Japan raised its key interest rate to 0.25% in yen.\n\nConsidering Japan’s inflation rate was 2.8% in June and had exceeded 2% for some time, the move was logical and even long-awaited. On the other hand, against Japan’s monetary policy, the decision was very extraordinary and, in the historical context, even terrifying as all economic and financial crises in the world, since 1990, have coincided with the Bank of Japan raising of interest rates.\n\nIn the early 1990s, the Bank of Japan burst the Japanese real estate and stock market bubble by raising interest rates, and in 1997 the rise in its interest rates coincided with the Asian financial crisis. When the Bank of Japan raised interest rates again three years later, the US internet stock bubble burst. During the 2006 interest rate hike, the first signs of concern appeared in the US real estate market and later led to a global financial crisis.\n\nNow that the Bank of Japan raised its interest rate by 25 basis points on 31 July, the financial market ‘fear index’ VIX leapt to an exceptionally high level in the following days. A financial analyst jokingly commented on this on the X platform: “According to the VIX, the worst market events of our lives were the 2008 financial crisis, COVID, and the Bank of Japan raising interest rates by a quarter percentage point.”\n\n![Pilt](/assets/images/pension/Andrese_joonis1_2608.png){.pension-img}\n_Source: X_\n\nBecause interest rates have been kept very low for a very long time, the Japanese yen has been the borrowing currency for speculative investors. They invest this money in other markets and in other currencies that offer higher returns. For example, if a loan is taken in yen, but the money is invested in the US technology sector, then the yen must be exchanged for dollars.\n\nThis investment strategy is called ‘carry trade’. It is possible to make a profit just by borrowing in yen at a low interest rate and investing it in dollars but at higher interest rates. This can be done if the exchange rate does not move in an unfavourable direction. If a huge number of investors borrow in yen and then sell the yen and buy dollars, the yen will depreciate against the dollar.\n\nInvestors have been exploiting this strategy for a very long time, and this has been the reason for the yen’s decline. However, now that the Bank of Japan is starting to raise its interest rates at a time when both the US and Europe are cutting theirs, carry trade will become less profitable. This means that the trend of taking money out of Japan may reverse: many high-yielding positions taken in other currencies will be sold to buy yen and repay the loans previously taken out in yen.\n\nAlthough the Japanese government has a staggering debt burden, Japanese businesses and households are big savers. That’s why Japan is the world’s largest net exporter of capital.\n\n![Pilt](/assets/images/pension/Andrese_joonis2_1908.png){.pension-img}\n_International investment position of the ten largest economies (EUR billion) in 2023. Source: IMF, ECB and Eurostat_\n\nThe yen carry trade has been going on for a very long time and on a very large scale. If it starts to close, it will mean massive reverse capital flows over a long period of time, affecting a great many capital markets, both large and small.\n\nThe investment strategy of LHV pension funds is primarily based on fundamental analysis, and we tend to refrain from speculative investments.

In the second half of July, the markets gave back a little of their gains, which made the monthly changes in the largest stock indices relatively modest.\n\nHowever, on 31 July, a rare monetary policy decision was made in Japan, the impact of which may be greater and longer-lasting than interest rate adjustments by the US Federal Reserve or the European Central Bank. Namely, the Bank of Japan raised its key interest rate to 0.25% in yen.\n\nConsidering Japan’s inflation rate was 2.8% in June and had exceeded 2% for some time, the move was logical and even long-awaited. On the other hand, against Japan’s monetary policy, the decision was very extraordinary and, in the historical context, even terrifying as all economic and financial crises in the world, since 1990, have coincided with the Bank of Japan raising of interest rates.\n\nIn the early 1990s, the Bank of Japan burst the Japanese real estate and stock market bubble by raising interest rates, and in 1997 the rise in its interest rates coincided with the Asian financial crisis. When the Bank of Japan raised interest rates again three years later, the US internet stock bubble burst. During the 2006 interest rate hike, the first signs of concern appeared in the US real estate market and later led to a global financial crisis.\n\nNow that the Bank of Japan raised its interest rate by 25 basis points on 31 July, the financial market ‘fear index’ VIX leapt to an exceptionally high level in the following days.

They invest this money in other markets and in other currencies that offer higher returns. For example, if a loan is taken in yen, but the money is invested in the US technology sector, then the yen must be exchanged for dollars.\n\nThis investment strategy is called ‘carry trade’. It is possible to make a profit just by borrowing in yen at a low interest rate and investing it in dollars but at higher interest rates. This can be done if the exchange rate does not move in an unfavourable direction. If a huge number of investors borrow in yen and then sell the yen and buy dollars, the yen will depreciate against the dollar.\n\nInvestors have been exploiting this strategy for a very long time, and this has been the reason for the yen’s decline. However, now that the Bank of Japan is starting to raise its interest rates at a time when both the US and Europe are cutting theirs, carry trade will become less profitable. This means that the trend of taking money out of Japan may reverse: many high-yielding positions taken in other currencies will be sold to buy yen and repay the loans previously taken out in yen.\n\nAlthough the Japanese government has a staggering debt burden, Japanese businesses and households are big savers.

After falling earlier in the month, the S&P 500 index recovered to end the month up 2.3% in dollars. The European Euro Stoxx 50 ended August up 1.8% in euros. The emerging market index rose 1.4% in dollars during the month, with China, the biggest contributor to that rise, up 1%. The OMX Baltic Benchmark index fell by approximately 2.7% in euros during the month.\n\nThe market correction at the beginning of the month brought us good buying opportunities. Among the new investments added to the portfolio were the Swedish companies Atlas Copco, Saab, Indutrade and Nibe Industrier. We also bought positions in United Rentals, an American construction equipment rental company, and in American Industrial Renaissance ETF. In addition, we increased our holdings in the Finnish company Metso and in VanEck Oil Services ETF. \n\nThe biggest contributors to the fund’s equity portfolio last month were gold positions, which rose 4%–8%, the European banks index, which rose 3.4%, and the air source heat pump manufacturer Nibe Industrier, which rose about 19%. The poorest performers were investments related to energy and silver, which fell by 15%–20% and 11%, respectively. Due to structural undersupply and the protection it offers in an uncertain geopolitical environment, we continue to see good opportunities in the commodity sector.\n\nIn August, LHV pension funds sold a stake in the forest fund Birdeye Timber Fund 1 for 8.4 million euros. The duration of the investment was ten years, during which period we contributed to the development of Estonian forests and the management of the forest portfolio. Forest land as an asset class is based on real property and is less volatile than traditional investments such as stocks and bonds.\n\nOur major investment this summer – Eesti Energia subordinated bonds – has started with strong results, bringing the fund a return of approximately 3% by the end of August. A significant part of the return was due to the overall decline in interest rates in Europe (reminder: after interest rates are lowered, the prices of most bonds rise automatically). If the company’s results improve, the price of the bonds could increase further. To top it off, the fund accumulates interest at the rate of 7.875% per year in the meantime.\n"},{"year":2024,"month":7,"content":"### July 2024: We made a new major investment\n\nKristo Oidermaa and Romet Enok, Fund Managers\n\nJuly was a rather volatile month on the stock markets. While the S&P 500 index, which largely represents technology stocks, dipped during the month and ended with a 1.1% return in dollar terms, the Dow Jones index, which reflects more established industrial-sector companies, performed much better, with a monthly return of 4.4%.\n\nThe Euro Stoxx 50 index saw little change in July, with its value decreasing by 0.3% in euro terms. The emerging markets index also remained largely unchanged. The index was negatively impacted by China, which declined by 2.2% in dollar terms, but positively influenced by India and Indonesia, which rose by 3.9% and 3.5%, respectively. The OMX Baltic Benchmark index increased by approximately 1% in euro terms over the month.\n\nIn July, the largest private-equity fund in the Baltics, BaltCap, announced that it had acquired the business software platforms FitekIN and ONEA from the Belgian technology firm Unifiedpost Group. FitekIN has previously been owned by BaltCap, so the fund is already well-acquainted with the company. FitekIN and ONEA provide businesses with automation and digitisation solutions for invoice management and approval. Both platforms operate in 13 countries across Europe, with plans to expand into additional markets in the future.\n\nWe didn’t execute any major transactions in the stock portfolio during the month. The positions related to precious metals contributed the most to our returns, appreciating by 2.5% to 18%. In contrast, our investments in metals used in energy production and storage had the most negative impact on July’s returns, declining by 4% to 6%. Additionally, one of our positions in the timber industry lost approximately 10% of its value due to quarterly results that fell short of investor expectations.\n\nThanks to structural undersupply and the resilience that the commodities sector offers in the current uncertain geopolitical environment, we continue to see strong opportunities in this sector.\n\nThe bond portfolio has a new major investment as we subscribed to Eesti Energia’s new bonds. These bonds offer an annual interest rate of 7.875%, and Eesti Energia is expected to repay the loan in approximately five years. In addition to bank loans, the energy provider raised funds through bonds to complete its extensive investment plan. Capital-intensive construction projects are underway in the renewable energy, network services and fuel business sectors. The bond is traded on the international market, providing an additional opportunity to profit from potential price increases.\n\nOn the other hand, funds were released from the bond portfolio when the local real estate fund Baltic Horizon made the final repayment on the shorter-term portion of its bond. In addition to the nearly 12% annual interest rate, early redemption fees were added to the shorter-term repayments.\n"},{"year":2024,"month":6,"content":"### June 2024: We began reconstruction of the Marat Building in Tallinn\n\nKristo Oidermaa and Romet Enok, Fund Managers\n\nJune was a good month for the US stock market, with the S&P 500 rising by 3.5% in dollar terms.

After falling earlier in the month, the S&P 500 index recovered to end the month up 2.3% in dollars. The European Euro Stoxx 50 ended August up 1.8% in euros. The emerging market index rose 1.4% in dollars during the month, with China, the biggest contributor to that rise, up 1%. The OMX Baltic Benchmark index fell by approximately 2.7% in euros during the month.\n\nThe market correction at the beginning of the month brought us good buying opportunities. Among the new investments added to the portfolio were the Swedish companies Atlas Copco, Saab, Indutrade and Nibe Industrier. We also bought positions in United Rentals, an American construction equipment rental company, and in American Industrial Renaissance ETF. In addition, we increased our holdings in the Finnish company Metso and in VanEck Oil Services ETF. \n\nThe biggest contributors to the fund’s equity portfolio last month were gold positions, which rose 4%–8%, the European banks index, which rose 3.4%, and the air source heat pump manufacturer Nibe Industrier, which rose about 19%. The poorest performers were investments related to energy and silver, which fell by 15%–20% and 11%, respectively. Due to structural undersupply and the protection it offers in an uncertain geopolitical environment, we continue to see good opportunities in the commodity sector.\n\nIn August, LHV pension funds sold a stake in the forest fund Birdeye Timber Fund 1 for 8.4 million euros. The duration of the investment was ten years, during which period we contributed to the development of Estonian forests and the management of the forest portfolio. Forest land as an asset class is based on real property and is less volatile than traditional investments such as stocks and bonds.\n\nOur major investment this summer – Eesti Energia subordinated bonds – has started with strong results, bringing the fund a return of approximately 3% by the end of August. A significant part of the return was due to the overall decline in interest rates in Europe (reminder: after interest rates are lowered, the prices of most bonds rise automatically). If the company’s results improve, the price of the bonds could increase further. To top it off, the fund accumulates interest at the rate of 7.875% per year in the meantime.\n"},{"year":2024,"month":7,"content":"### July 2024: We made a new major investment\n\nKristo Oidermaa and Romet Enok, Fund Managers\n\nJuly was a rather volatile month on the stock markets. While the S&P 500 index, which largely represents technology stocks, dipped during the month and ended with a 1.1% return in dollar terms, the Dow Jones index, which reflects more established industrial-sector companies, performed much better, with a monthly return of 4.4%.\n\nThe Euro Stoxx 50 index saw little change in July, with its value decreasing by 0.3% in euro terms. The emerging markets index also remained largely unchanged. The index was negatively impacted by China, which declined by 2.2% in dollar terms, but positively influenced by India and Indonesia, which rose by 3.9% and 3.5%, respectively. The OMX Baltic Benchmark index increased by approximately 1% in euro terms over the month.\n\nThe bond portfolio has a new major investment as we subscribed to Eesti Energia’s new bonds. These bonds offer an annual interest rate of 7.875%, and Eesti Energia is expected to repay the loan in approximately five years. In addition to bank loans, the energy provider raised funds through bonds to complete its extensive investment plan. Capital-intensive construction projects are underway in the renewable energy, network services and fuel business sectors. The bond is traded on the international market, providing an additional opportunity to profit from potential price increases.\n\nOn the other hand, funds were released from the bond portfolio when the local real estate fund Baltic Horizon made the final repayment on the shorter-term portion of its bond. In addition to the nearly 12% annual interest rate, early redemption fees were added to the shorter-term repayments.\n"},{"year":2024,"month":6,"content":"### June 2024: Gold helped lessen the decline in other positions\n\nKristo Oidermaa and Romet Enok, Fund Managers\n\nJune was a good month for the US stock market, with the S&P 500 rising by 3.5% in dollar terms. Conversely, the European Euro Stoxx 50 index fell by 1.7% in euro terms, primarily due to negative market reactions in France ahead of the parliamentary elections.\n\nEmerging markets rose by 3.6% in dollar terms in June, led by Asian markets such as Taiwan, India and South Korea. Latin America and China had a negative impact on the markets. The OMX Baltic Benchmark index fell by approximately 2% in euros during the month.\n\nNo major transactions were made in the stock portfolios during the month. The biggest contributor to our portfolio returns was our largest position, physical gold, which rose by 1.3% in June. The most significant negative impact came from investments in energy metals, which declined by 4–7%, and European banks, which lost 6.7% in value. Due to structural undersupply and the protection the sector offers in an uncertain geopolitical environment, we continue to see good opportunities in the commodity sector.\n"},{"year":2024,"month":5,"content":"### May 2024: We Invested in Agricultural Enterprises\n\nKristo Oidermaa and Romet Enok, Fund Managers\n\nContrary to the saying, “Sell in May and go away!”, May was a good month for developed markets. The US S&P 500 index rose by 4.8% in dollars, and the European Euro Stoxx 50 rose by 2.1% in euros. Emerging markets ended the month unchanged overall.\n\nChina experienced growth of 2.1% measured in dollars – a positive change from the poor mood that has surrounded the country for almost a year. Among emerging markets, Indonesia and Brazil had the most negative returns in May, falling 7.4% and 5.9% in dollars, respectively. The OMX Baltic Benchmark index fell by approximately 0.6% in euros during the month.\n\nDuring May, we bought positions in the agricultural companies Mosaic and Nutrien, betting on the rising prices of agricultural products. Of our equity positions, the European banking index and the gold mining company Agnico Eagle Mines gained the most in May, rising between 5% and 7%. The weakest results came from our energy-related positions, which fell by 2% to 7%.\n\nWe still see good opportunities in the commodities sector due to the structural undersupply and sustained demand prevailing in the sector.\n"}]},{"id":"market","title":"Market overview","content":[{"type":"singlearticle","column":"center","picture":"/pension/viisemann-turuylevaade.png","title":"**The Bank of Japan’s decision shook financial markets**\n*Andres Viisemann, Head of LHV Pension Funds*\n","preview":"The upward trend that started at the end of 2022 continued until mid-July.

The S&P 500 index, which tracks the largest US companies, reached its all-time high of 5,669 points on 16 July. Japan’s Nikkei 225 index, which on 22 February this year surpassed its peak mark of 34 years ago (38,915.87), reached 42,426.77 points on 11 July.\n\nInvestors are so used to the constant rise of stock prices and new peaks that these records hardly impressed anyone. In the second half of July, the markets gave back a little of their gains, which made the monthly changes in the largest stock indices relatively modest.\n\nHowever, on 31 July, a rare monetary policy decision was made in Japan, the impact of which may be greater and longer-lasting than interest rate adjustments by the US Federal Reserve or the European Central Bank. Namely, the Bank of Japan raised its key interest rate to 0.25% in yen.\n\nConsidering Japan’s inflation rate was 2.8% in June and had exceeded 2% for some time, the move was logical and even long-awaited. On the other hand, against Japan’s monetary policy, the decision was very extraordinary and, in the historical context, even terrifying as all economic and financial crises in the world, since 1990, have coincided with the Bank of Japan raising of interest rates.\n\nIn the early 1990s, the Bank of Japan burst the Japanese real estate and stock market bubble by raising interest rates, and in 1997 the rise in its interest rates coincided with the Asian financial crisis. When the Bank of Japan raised interest rates again three years later, the US internet stock bubble burst. During the 2006 interest rate hike, the first signs of concern appeared in the US real estate market and later led to a global financial crisis.\n\nNow that the Bank of Japan raised its interest rate by 25 basis points on 31 July, the financial market ‘fear index’ VIX leapt to an exceptionally high level in the following days. A financial analyst jokingly commented on this on the X platform: “According to the VIX, the worst market events of our lives were the 2008 financial crisis, COVID, and the Bank of Japan raising interest rates by a quarter percentage point.”\n\n![Pilt](/assets/images/pension/Andrese_joonis1_2608.png){.pension-img}\n_Source: X_\n\nBecause interest rates have been kept very low for a very long time, the Japanese yen has been the borrowing currency for speculative investors. They invest this money in other markets and in other currencies that offer higher returns. For example, if a loan is taken in yen, but the money is invested in the US technology sector, then the yen must be exchanged for dollars.\n\nThis investment strategy is called ‘carry trade’. It is possible to make a profit just by borrowing in yen at a low interest rate and investing it in dollars but at higher interest rates. This can be done if the exchange rate does not move in an unfavourable direction. If a huge number of investors borrow in yen and then sell the yen and buy dollars, the yen will depreciate against the dollar.\n\nInvestors have been exploiting this strategy for a very long time, and this has been the reason for the yen’s decline. However, now that the Bank of Japan is starting to raise its interest rates at a time when both the US and Europe are cutting theirs, carry trade will become less profitable. This means that the trend of taking money out of Japan may reverse: many high-yielding positions taken in other currencies will be sold to buy yen and repay the loans previously taken out in yen.\n\nAlthough the Japanese government has a staggering debt burden, Japanese businesses and households are big savers. That’s why Japan is the world’s largest net exporter of capital.\n\n![Pilt](/assets/images/pension/Andrese_joonis2_1908.png){.pension-img}\n_International investment position of the ten largest economies (EUR billion) in 2023. Source: IMF, ECB and Eurostat_\n\nThe yen carry trade has been going on for a very long time and on a very large scale. If it starts to close, it will mean massive reverse capital flows over a long period of time, affecting a great many capital markets, both large and small.\n\nThe investment strategy of LHV pension funds is primarily based on fundamental analysis, and we tend to refrain from speculative investments. However, large trends and sudden changes in international markets inevitably affect everyone. Still, companies that can grow sales year after year and earn decent profits will be less affected by this than companies whose high value is based solely on new future trends.\n\nThanks to this, LHV pension funds are currently positioned solidly and conservatively in the markets. We don’t bet too much on trends and have spread risks across a wide variety of asset classes.\n"}]},{"id":"payments","title":"Payment details","content":[{"title":"LHV Pensionifond Aktiivne III","type":"markdown","column":"left","content":"**Recipient**\nAS Pensionikeskus\n\n**Account**\nEE547700771002908125 - LHV Pank AS\nEE961700017004379157 - Luminor Bank AS\nEE141010220263146225 - SEB Pank AS\nEE362200221067235244 - Swedbank AS\n\n**Explanation**\n30101119828, EE3600010294, IK:Your ID Code\n\n**Amount**\nAmount invested in euros.\n"}]},{"id":"disbursements","title":"Disbursements","content":[{"title":"Disbursements","type":"markdown","column":"left","content":"**Pension agreement**\n\nThe state does not tax payments from the 3rd pension pillar if you have concluded an insurance contract under which regular pension payments will be made to you for the rest of your life.\n\n[See more at Pensionikeskus.ee](http://www.pensionikeskus.ee)\n\n**Resale of shares**\n\nAfter reaching the age of 55 (if you started making Pillar III contributions before 2021), but not before five years have elapsed from the initial investment, the income tax on disbursements is 10%.
