    Investment considerations

    An investment in the Company is suitable only for investors who are capable of evaluating the risks and merits of such investment, who understand the potential risk of capital loss and that there may be limited liquidity in the underlying investments of the Group, for whom an investment in the Ordinary Shares constitutes part of a diversified investment portfolio, who fully understand and are willing to assume the risks involved in investing in the Company and who have sufficient resources to bear any loss (which may be equal to the whole amount invested) which might result from such investment.

    Typical investors in the Company are expected to be institutional, professionally advised private investors and sophisticated investors.  The Ordinary Shares are only suitable for investors who understand the potential risk of capital loss, that there may be limited liquidity in the underlying investments of the Company, for whom an investment in the Ordinary Shares is part of a diversified investment programme and who fully understand and are willing to assume the risks involved in such an investment.  Investors should consult their stockbroker, bank manager, solicitor, accountant or other independent financial adviser before making an investment in the Company.

    Prospective investors should inform themselves as to:

    • the legal requirements within their own countries for the purchase, holding, transfer or other disposal of Ordinary Shares;
    • any foreign exchange restrictions applicable to the purchase, holding, transfer or other disposal of Ordinary Shares which they might encounter; and
    • the income and other tax consequences which may apply in their own countries as a result of the purchase, holding, transfer or other disposal of Ordinary Shares.

    Prospective investors must rely upon their own representatives, including their own legal advisers and accountants, as to legal, tax, investment or any other related matters concerning the Company and an investment therein.

    An investment in the Company should be regarded as a long-term investment.  There can be no assurance that the Investment Objective will be achieved.  It should be remembered that the price of the Ordinary Shares, and the income from such Ordinary Shares (if any), can go down as well as up.

    Suitability for UK Retail Distribution

    The Company currently conducts its affairs so that its Ordinary Shares can be recommended by independent financial advisers to retail private investors in accordance with the FCA rules in relation to non-mainstream investment products and intends to continue to do so for the foreseeable future.

    Key Information Document and PRIIPs Regulation

    For the purposes of the PRIIPs Regulation, the Company has prepared a key information document (the “KID”).  The KID is made available by the Company to “retail investors” prior to them making an investment decision in respect of the Ordinary Shares.  The KID will be available to all investors under the tab titled “Investors > Key Information Document”[1].

    Alternative Investment Fund Managers Directive Disclosures

    The Company is an externally managed alternative investment fund and has the AIFM as its alternative investment fund manager.  In accordance with the AIFMD and AIFM Regulations, the AIFM has prepared AIFMD Disclosures that will be made available to investors prior to them making an investment decision in respect of the Ordinary Shares under the tab titled “Investors >  AIFMD Leverage Disclosures”.

    General Risk Warning

    Please remember that past performance of an investment is not necessarily a guide to future performance. The value of an investment and the income from it can fall as well as rise as a result of market and currency fluctuations and you may not get back the amount originally invested. The market value of the shares of the Company may not reflect the underlying net asset value of the investments held by the Company. The Company is able to borrow to raise further funds for investment purposes if the investment adviser consider that it may be commercially advantageous to do so. This is generally described as "gearing". Any company which has made investments as a result of gearing may have a more volatile share price as a result; gearing can increase shareholder returns in rising markets but conversely can increase the extent to which the value of the company attributable to shareholders decreases in falling markets. Tax assumptions may change if the law changes and the value of tax relief (if any) will depend upon your individual circumstances. Investors should consult their own tax advisers in order to understand any applicable tax consequences.
