Valuation of Investments
Under the Investment Company Act, the Master Fund is required to carry its investments at market value or, if there is no readily available market value, at fair value as determined by the Adviser, in accordance with the Master Fund’s valuation procedures, which have been approved by the Board. There is not a public market or active secondary market for many of the securities in which the Master Fund intends to invest. Rather, many of the Master Fund’s investments may be traded on a privately negotiated over-the-counter secondary market for institutional investors. As a result, the Master Fund will value these securities at fair value as determined in good faith by the Adviser in accordance with the valuation procedures that have been approved by the Board.
Because each Feeder Fund invests all or substantially all of its assets in the Master Fund, the value of the assets of each Feeder Fund depends on the value of its pro rata interest in the Master Fund investments. The Sub-Adviser oversees the valuation of each Fund’s investments on behalf of each Fund. The Board has approved valuation procedures for each Fund, which are in substance identical (the “Valuation Procedures”).
The Valuation Procedures provide that the Master Fund will value its investments in private markets investment funds and direct private equity investments at fair value. The date the Master Fund calculates its NAV as of the close of business on the last business day of each calendar month, each date that Shares are offered or repurchased, as of the date of any distribution and at such other times as the Board shall determine (each, a “Determination Date”). The fair value of such investments as of each Determination Date, ordinarily will be the capital account value of the Master Fund’s interest in such investments as provided by the relevant private markets investment fund manager as of or prior to the relevant Determination Date; provided that such values will be adjusted for any other relevant information available at the time the Master Fund values its portfolio, including capital activity and material events occurring between the reference dates of the private markets investment fund manager’s valuations and the relevant Determination Date.
In accordance with the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements and disclosure under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”), the Fund discloses fair value of its investments in a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure the fair value. The objective of a fair value measurement is to determine the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (an exit price). Accordingly, the fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:
Level 1 — Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities that the Funds have the ability to access at the measurement date;
Level 2 — Other significant observable inputs (includes quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, referenced indices, quoted prices in inactive markets, adjusted quoted prices in active markets, adjusted quoted prices on foreign equity securities that were adjusted in accordance with pricing procedures approved by the Board, etc.); and
Level 3 — Prices, inputs or exotic modeling techniques which are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (supported by little or no market activity).
Investments are classified within the level of the lowest significant input considered in determining fair value. Investments classified within Level 3 whose fair value measurement considers several inputs may include Level 1 or Level 2 inputs as components of the overall fair value measurement.
For the period ended December 31, 2020, there were no changes to the Fund’s fair value methodologies.
