A&Q Masters Fund
Schedule of Portfolio Investments (continued)
(Unaudited)
December 31, 2020
The Fund’s valuation procedures require evaluation of all relevant factors available at the time the Fund values its portfolio. These relevant factors include the individual Investment Funds’ compliance with fair value measurements, price transparency and valuation procedures in place, and subscription and redemption activity.
Portfolio Valuation
Net asset value of the Fund is determined by the Fund’s administrator, under the oversight of the Adviser, as of the close of business at the end of any fiscal period in accordance with the valuation principles or as may be determined from time to time pursuant to policies established by the Board of Trustees.
The investments within the scope of ASC 820, for which fair value is measured using NAV as a practical expedient, should not be categorized within the fair value hierarchy. The total fair value of the investments in Investment Funds valued using NAV as a practical expedient is $54,788,192. Additional disclosures, including liquidity terms and conditions of the underlying investments, are included in the Schedule of Portfolio Investments.
The Investment Funds in the equity hedged strategy (total fair value of $54,788,192) generally utilize fundamental analysis to invest in publicly traded equities investing in both long and short positions seeking to capture perceived security mispricing. Portfolio construction is driven primarily by bottom-up fundamental research; top-down analysis may also be applied. As of December 31, 2020, the Investment Funds in the equity hedged strategy had $28,251,965, representing 52% of the value of the investments in this category, subject to investor level gates and/or lock-ups. Included in this amount is $7,929,773, representing 14% of the value of the investments in this category, that cannot be redeemed in full because the investments include restrictions that do not allow for redemptions in the first 12 months after acquisition. The remaining restriction period for these investments ranges from 1-6 months at December 31, 2020. An investment representing less than 1% of the value of investments in this category is held in side pockets; therefore, the redemption notice period is no longer effective for this investment and the liquidation of assets is uncertain.
Investment Funds with no current redemption restrictions may be subject to future gates, lock-up provisions or other restrictions, in accordance with their offering documents. The Fund had no unfunded capital commitments as of December 31, 2020.
Please refer to the September 30, 2020 financial statements for full disclosure on the Fund’s portfolio valuation methodology.
