AuM covers programs, mandates and assets to which Partners Group renders (full or partial) investment management or advisory services, but does not cover consultant, transaction or other ancillary services it may render to clients or assets from time to time. AuM is typically calculated as either i) the program size, ii) outstanding commitments to investments, iii) the net asset value or the outstanding principal of investments, or iv) the respective investment exposure. The AuM basis is increased by the amount of assets raised that are based on i) subscriptions, or ii) new fee-paying assets and amounts planned to be invested which would become fee-paying assets in the following six months. Reductions in the AuM basis for mature programs i) may follow a fixed schedule, ii) can be based on the cost of realizing assets, or iii) may be the result of such programs being liquidated. The AuM basis is also reduced by redemptions on open-ended programs. Further changes in the AuM basis may be explained by factors such as performance or changes in FX rates.
