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.
