Building Long-Term Wealth by Investing in Private Companies US HVPE Annual Report and Accounts 2018 Annual Report and Accounts 31 January 2018 Building Long-term Wealth by Investing in Private Companies Investment Objective The Company’s investment objective is to generate superior shareholder returns through long-term capital appreciation by investing primarily in a diversified portfolio of private markets investments. Why Private Markets? Globally, the opportunity set in private companies greatly exceeds that available in the listed markets. Historically, private equity has delivered strong returns, outperforming listed equity over the long term.1 Why HVPE? HarbourVest Global Private Equity (“HVPE”) provides investors with diversified access to opportunities in private markets through investing into funds managed by HarbourVest Partners, a leading independent global private markets asset manager. HVPE has a strong track record and in the ten years ending 31 January 2018 had more than doubled its net asset value (“NAV”) per share, implying a compound annual growth rate of 7.5% in US dollar terms (equivalent to 11.2% in sterling).2 Why Now? A growing number of mainstream investment managers are now focusing on the opportunities available in private companies. Meanwhile, established specialist funds such as HVPE have been delivering strong returns for many years, whilst the shares continue to trade at a discount to the value of their assets. 1 Globally, private equity funds returned 12.2% annually over the 20 years to 30 September 2017, compared to 6.9% for the MSCI World on a public market equivalent (“PME”) total return basis.

Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future returns. 2 Represents the compound annual growth rate of the NAV per share over the last ten years from $10.39 (£5.23) at 31 January 2008 to $21.46 (£15.12) at 31 January 2018.
