Investment Portfolio

Vantage Private Equity Growth Limited expects to fully commit its Private Equity Allocation within 36 months of Commencement. The long-term allocation of the Company’s investments is intended to be more than 60% to Private Equity and less than 40% to a combination of cash and fixed interest securities.

When a Commitment is made there is often no immediate cash flow effect and cash is only drawn down by the Private Equity fund when investments in underlying enterprises actually take place.

The current investment portfolio allocation and post tax net asset value (NAV) per share is as follows:
