(full realizations, incl. write-offs)

  • Over the last two years realised values at the time of exit were substantially higher than the fair values reported six and twelve months prior to the corresponding exit.
  • This applies to investments denominated in USD (blue) and EUR (red); it is noteworthy that fair values claculated by European fund managers were generally more conservative than those calculated by US fund managers.
  • As usual: "past numbers are no indication for future performance".
