Nevertheless, the YTD performance of the first three quarters 2014 is 13.6%. Among the funds impacting the performance we mostly find European funds due to the valuation of the Euro against the US dollar (e.g. Nordic VII, Apax Europe VII, Activa II). The portfolio remains cash flow generative distributing about USD 2.4m in cash versus USD 0.8m capital called. Distributions have slowed down compared to the previous months and were driven by earlier vintages FoFs such as Adams Street 2002 and Brinson Non-US 2004 and medium/larger buyout funds such as Adveq Asia I, Madison Dearborn V, and Charterhouse VIII. Capital calls continue to be weak particularly as most of the funds have reached the end of their investment cycle. However, IVP XIV called alone about 40% of the total in this month. Hedge Fund: September was shaped by continuing macro and geopolitical concerns as well as central bank actions which led to increased volatility on equity and credit markets. Hedge Fund managers delivered mixed results, with Trading strategies being generally the most capable ones in capturing market movements and posting positive returns. Discretionary managers produced the largest returns. The product's Trading allocation however, has been slightly negative, particularly due to two managers experiencing losses incurred in rates and credit. Equity Hedged managers reported mixed returns, with one manager being exceptionally hurt by one long position in an accommodations company that was recently spun-off from an activist position. Credit/Income managers delivered solid performance throughout, with the exception of just one manager, whose performance was mainly detracted from a second line debt investment in a stressed coal mining company.

    RI TRANSPARENCY REPOR T 2020 Nordic Capital An investor initiative in partnership with UNEP Finance Initiative and UN Global Compact About this report The PRI Reporting Framework is a key step in the journey towards building a common language and industry standard for reporting responsible investment (RI) activities. This RI Transparency Report is one of the key outputs of this Framework. Its primary objective is to enable signatory transparency on RI activities and facilitate dialogue between investors and their clients, beneficiaries and other stakeholders. A copy of this report will be publicly disclosed for all reporting signatories on the PRI website, ensuring accountability of the PRI Initiative and its signatories. This report is an export of the individual Signatory organisation’s response to the PRI during the 2020 reporting cycle. It includes their responses to mandatory indicators, as well as responses to voluntary indicators the signatory has agreed to make public. The information is presented exactly as it was reported. Where an indicator offers a response option that is multiple-choice, all options that were available to the signatory to select are presented in this report. Presenting the information exactly as reported is a result of signatory feedback which suggested the PRI not summarise the information. As a result, the reports can be extensive. However, to help easily locate information, there is a Principles index which highlights where the information can be found and summarises the indicators that signatories complete and disclose. Understanding the Principles Index The Principles Index summarises the response status for the individual indicators and modules and shows how these relate to the six Principles for Responsible Investment.

    Washington State Investment Board Washington State Investment Board Portfolio Overview by Strategy December 31, 2017 NOTE: IRRs presented are interim estimates and may not be indicative of the ultimate performance of partnership investments due to a number of factors, such as the lack of industry valuation standards and the differences in the investment pace and strategy of various funds. IRRs tend to be less meaningful in the early years of a partnership's term when underlying portfolio company investments have typically not been realized. The IRRs contained in this report are calculated by Hamilton Lane based on information provided by the general partner (e.g. cash flows and valuations). Such IRR calculations have not been confirmed by the general partners. The result of WSIB’s IRR calculation may differ from that generated by the general partner or other limited partners, primarily due to differences in the date of close, sale of distributed stock, accounting for bridge loans, and valuations.

  • February 2020 the State Investment Commission (SIC
    February 2020 The State Investment Commission (SIC) and Office of the General Treasurer are pleased to publish the Employees’ Retirement System of Rhode Island (ERSRI) Investment Expense Analysis for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2019. Under Treasurer Magaziner, Rhode Island maintains one of the most comprehensive expense disclosure policies in the nation. Since 2015, Rhode Island only invests with fund managers who agree to have their performance and expenses published regularly, a policy that has become a leading practice replicated by other states. In 2017, The Rhode Island General Assembly codified Treasurer Magaziner’s disclosure policy into law, ensuring the policy would continue across future administrations. Total investment related fees and expenses in Fiscal Year 2019 were $79.5 million. The Pension Fund earned more than $520 million from investments net of fees and expenses and ended Fiscal Year 2019 with an estimated value of $8.5 billion. In September 2016, Treasurer Magaziner and the SIC announced a new asset allocation strategy called ‘Back to Basics’ which included a significant reduction in hedge funds in favor of more traditional strategies for growth and stability. Since implementation of ‘Back to Basics’, the pension fund has earned more than $1.5 billion from investments. Additional details on investment performance, asset allocation, and expenses can be found at: http://investments.treasury.ri.gov Under Treasurer Magaziner’s administration, all funds new to the ERSRI portfolio after June of 2015 are required to permit public reporting of their fees and expenses. While funds that received investment from the SIC before June of 2015 are grandfathered from the individualized reporting requirement, the Treasurer’s office has requested that they voluntarily allow disclosure, which most have agreed to do.
