Neuflize Private Assets: flexible equity investing

� Neuflize Private Assets is an investment companywith a unique approach to equity investing. Ourinvestment approach is based upon a simple notion:we believe that equity markets will continue tomove in irregular patterns over the coming decade.

Equity investing

High conviction

move in irregular patterns over the coming decade.To obtain superior performance over time in thiskind of environment we believe it is essential to

� know which sectors and stocks to invest in – andnot be bound to a benchmark

� have the flexibility to hedge part of the portfoliowhen a downturn is expected – by ‘shorting’ theindex

� keep a part of the portfolio in cash – whenvaluations do not justify to be fully invested

� We apply this investment approach to all our funds

Not tied to equity benchmark

Our Investment Philosophy

1. Our Equity Absolute Return approach was developed based on the following observations:

� The long bull market from 1982 to 2000 justified a fully invested, benchmarked approach to the stock market.

� In the current environment, marked by historically low government bond yields and a deleveraging era, managers need a more selective approach. We are convinced that over the long term, equity markets will remain irregular.remain irregular.

� To achieve performance in this environment, the portfolio manager needs flexibility and strong choices. “Absolute Performance” is the key, and cash positions help us achieve our goal.

Our Investment Philosophy

2. Bonds are no longer a safe investment

� After a 22 years bull market, bond yields are close to a 50 year low.

� They offer limited interest income and show vulnerability to higher interest rates

� An equity portfolio, protected by the sale of index futures when needed, is our preferred investmentstrategy.
