Edison issues review on RTW Venture Fund (RTW)

RTW Venture Fund (RTWVF) is managed by global healthcare specialist RTW Investments (RTW) that has offices in New York, London and Shanghai. It offers a broad range of financing options from business formations through to listed biotech and medtech companies. RTW's managers are hopeful that the performance of biotech stocks will continue to improve following a significant sell off, particularly in smaller-cap stocks, between February 2021 and May 2022. Biotech industry fundamentals and valuations are attractive, so investors with a longer-term perspective that can look through the current challenging macroeconomic backdrop may benefit from an allocation to the sector.

RTWVF is trading at a 20.1% discount to NAV, which is a considerably lower valuation than the average 4.1% premium since the fund was launched in October 2019. There is potential for a narrower discount if investor sentiment towards biotech stocks continues to improve and RTWVF is able to build on its longer-term positive performance record.
