  • UBS Private Equity Secondary Market Review.Pdf
    UBS Private Equity Secondary Market Review UBS Private Funds Group June—2011 UBS Private Funds Group Secondary Market Review The UBS Private Funds Group’s Secondary Advisory Practice was launched in 2004 with the mandate to provide the highest quality sell- side advice to owners of private equity portfolios. In the current installment of this series, UBS provides a comprehensive review of secondary market activity in 2010 and the first quarter of 2011 and highlights key issues and trends that will impact the secondary market in 2011. Our perspective is unique within the secondary market, based not only on our experience as a leading placement agent and secondary advisor, but also as a seller in the structuring and execution of UBS’s own $1.3 billion secondary transaction in 2003.1 To date, UBS has advised on and executed over $24 billion of secondary transactions and has established itself as a market leading advisor.2 Review of the Secondary Market—2010 Market Environment Secondary volume rebounded to record levels in 2010, totaling approximately $22 billion which represented a 132% increase as compared to 2009 levels ($9.5 billion).3 The combination of improved capital market conditions and strong levels of available capital resulted in a dramatic improvement in the pricing environment during the first quarter of 2010, while increased regulatory pressure crystallized financial institutions’ intention to sell risk assets. Following a somewhat slow start to the beginning of 2010, the year began to pick up momentum following the announcement of Bank of America’s $1.9 billion transaction and RBS’ €400 million transaction.

  • The Wild Card: Can Frontier Markets Equities Bounce Back? | Frontier Markets, Equities | Financeasia
    5/6/2020 The wild card: Can frontier markets equities bounce back? | frontier markets, equities | FinanceAsia Frontier markets The wild card: Can frontier markets equities bounce back? Frontier markets have been among the worst hit amid the coronavirus equities sell-off, but one veteran fund manager believes they have rarely offered better value. By Jackie Horne April 28, 2020 The coronavirus spared many frontier markets from the same infection rates suffered by Western countries, but not their stock markets. In Vietnam, for example, the VN Index fell 26.1% in dollar terms during March, outpacing US benchmark indices such as the Dow Jones Industrial Average, which dropped by 13.74% over the same period. Frontier markets are getting used to it after taking a pounding in recent years. International investors remain firmly focused on their homes markets in the US and Europe, or rapidly opening ones like China. In the following interview, Thomas Hugger, founder and CEO of fund manager Asia Frontier Capital, argues that there has never been a better time to reconsider some of Asia's smallest stock markets. He also wishes the MSCI would re-evaulate its methodologies for upgrading or downgrading countries between its emerging markets and frontier markets index. Hugger's Hong Kong-based group currently operates four funds with $45 million under management: its benchmark AFC Asia Frontier Fund, AFC Iraq Fund, AFC Uzbekistan Fund and AFC Fund. Q. What impact is the coronavirus having on frontier markets? A number of stock exchanges like Sri Lanka and Jordan closed completely. A. There’s a major difference between the stock exchange closures in the two countries.
