"OUTLOOK
The portfolio construction of Fund I is complete and is now at the realisation stage. Several companies are attracting interest from potential acquirers, with some engaged in ongoing discussions for several months. Others are preparing for follow-on funding rounds, with the potential for higher valuations. Fund II is in the early stages of the investment cycle, and the investment team is encouraged by the quality of its initial investments and the developing deal pipeline.
The Company's performance has been stable in a challenging economic environment, marked by higher inflation, higher interest rates, and geopolitical tensions. These factors continue to impact public and private markets and have slowed private market deal activity. However, the Company believes its investment portfolio is well positioned for significant returns in breakthrough technology sectors. The Investment Manager will be actively exploring exits for Fund I in 2024."
