Among the funds impacting the performance most we find in particular fund-of-funds such as UBS Private Equity II, VenCap 10 USD, and HarbourVest IV as well as several of Adams Street. The portfolio remains cash flow generative distributing about USD 3.1m in cash versus USD 1.0m capital called. Distributions have picked up again compared to August but are below the average of the last twelve months. More than the half of the distributions was driven by strong realizations of Navis Asia V, Gores Capital III, and UBS Private Equity Global II. Capital calls continue to be on low levels as most of the funds are reaching the end of their investment periods. The funds which called larger amounts of capital in September were Apax VIII, Investindustrial V, and H.I.G. Bayside Fund II. Hedge Fund: Continuing concerns over global growth and potential interest rate hikes appeared to have dominated markets, which resulted in further uncertainty and weakened investor sentiment. In September, elevated levels of volatility continued across asset classes but stayed below the highs reached in August. Global equity markets were broadly negative. Credit markets experienced a flight-to-quality move across corporate bonds which led to losses in the high yield space. Most hedge funds were challenged this month. The majority of the managers in this portfolio posted negative returns, however, there were some who coped relatively well with the market movements. Equity Hedged were mainly negative, a manager's healthcare exposure incurred heavy losses and another one suffered from its position in a German auto company. Multi-Strategy managers were also challenged, except one manager whose gains in Fixed Income strategies offset losses in other strategies, mainly fundamental equity strategies. Within Relative Value, a Quant Equity manager reported solid results primarily due to stock selection models in large capitalization equities. Performance dispersion between Trading managers was relatively wide. One Systematic manager reported outstanding returns driven by its short exposure in sectors like energy and material versus healthcare and credit.
