  Valuation of Investments

 

The Fund computes the net asset value (“NAV”) for each class of Shares as of the close of business on the last business day of each month and in connection with the Fund’s offer to purchase Shares, on each date that Shares are to be repurchased, as of the date of any distribution and at such other times as the Board shall determine, in accordance with valuation principles set forth below, or may be determined from time to time, pursuant to the valuation procedures (the “Procedures”) established by the Board.

 

The Board has approved the Procedures pursuant to which the Fund values its investments. In December 2020, the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) adopted Rule 2a-5 under the Investment Company Act, which establishes requirements for determining fair value in good faith for purposes of the Investment Company Act, including related oversight and reporting requirements. Effective as of the compliance date of September 8, 2022, the Board approved changes to the Fund’s valuation policy to comply with Rule 2a-5 and designated NBIA as the Fund’s valuation designee (as defined in the rule). The valuation designee, with assistance from NBAA, is responsible for determining fair value in good faith for any and all Fund investments, subject to oversight by the Board.

 

The Adviser generally will value the Fund’s investment in Portfolio Funds and certain Direct Investments, including Direct Investments in private equity securities, using the “practical expedient” in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement (“ASC 820”). ASC 820 provides that, in valuing alternative investments that do not have quoted market prices but calculate NAV per share or equivalent, an investor may determine fair value by using the NAV reported to the investor by the underlying investment. Portfolio Funds are generally valued based on the latest net asset value reported by a Portfolio Fund Manager or general partner. Similarly, many Direct Investments, including Direct Investments in private equity securities, are generally valued based on the valuation information provided by the lead or sponsoring private equity investors. In general, it is anticipated that such valuation information from these Portfolio Fund managers or from lead or sponsoring private equity investors will generally not be available until 60 days or more after each quarter-end. Therefore, the most recently provided valuation information about these Direct Investments and Portfolio Funds for purposes of calculating the Fund’s monthly net asset value will typically be adjusted by the Adviser pursuant to the Fund’s valuation procedures to estimate the fair value, on a monthly basis, of the interests in such Portfolio Funds or Direct Investments. To the extent the Adviser is either unable to utilize the practical expedient under ASC 820, or where the Adviser determines that use of the practical expedient is not appropriate as it will not result in a price that represents the current value of an investment, the Adviser will make a fair value determination of the value of the investment.

 

Domestic exchange traded equity securities (other than options) will be valued at their last sale prices as reported on the exchanges where those securities are primarily traded. If no sales of a security are reported on a particular day, the security will be valued based on its bid price for a security held long, or its ask price for a security held short, as reported by those exchanges. Securities traded primarily on NASDAQ will be valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price (“NOCP”). If no NOCP is available, the security will generally be valued at the latest bid price as reported on NASDAQ. In the absence of such sales or quotations, other publicly offered securities will be valued at their bid prices (or asked prices in the case of securities held short) as obtained from one or more dealers making markets for those securities.

 

Debt securities may be valued in accordance with the procedures described for equity securities above. In addition, debt securities may be valued by an independent pricing service approved by the Board on the basis of market quotations. The Adviser will monitor the reasonableness of valuations provided by the pricing service. Debt securities with remaining maturities of 60 days or less will be valued on the basis of amortized cost, unless other factors indicate that amortized cost is not an accurate estimate of the security’s value. If a valuation for a security is not available from an independent pricing service or if the Adviser believes in good faith that the valuation does not reflect the amount the Fund would receive on a current sale of that security, the Fund seeks to obtain quotations from brokers or dealers. If such quotations are not readily available, the Fund may use a fair value estimate made according to methods approved by the Board of Managers.

 

For illiquid securities for which no market quotations are available (other than interests in Portfolio Funds and certain Direct Investments, as described above) and for which independent appraisals of current value can readily be obtained, valuations will be based on such appraisals. Otherwise, valuation of illiquid securities (other than interests in Portfolio Funds and certain Direct Investments, as described above) will remain at cost except that original cost valuation will be adjusted based on a determination of such investment’s fair value.

 

 

 

ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). FASB ASC 820 provides three levels of the fair value hierarchy as follows:

 

Level 1 Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Fund has the ability to access;

 

Level 2 Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability either directly or indirectly. These inputs may include quoted prices for the identical instrument on an inactive market, prices for similar instruments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, yield curves, default rates, and similar data;

 

Level 3 Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability to the extent that relevant observable inputs are not available, representing the Fund’s own assumptions about the assumptions that a market participant would use in valuing the asset or liability, and that would be based on the best information available.

 

Most Portfolio Funds and certain Direct Investments are structured as closed-end, commitment-based private investment funds to which the Fund commits a specified amount of capital upon inception of the investment (i.e., committed capital) which is then drawn down over a specified period of the investment’s life. Such investments generally do not provide redemption options for investors and, subsequent to final closing, do not permit subscriptions by new or existing investors. Accordingly, the Fund generally holds interests for which there is no active market, although, in some situations, a transaction may occur in the “secondary market” where an investor purchases a limited partner’s existing interest and remaining commitment.

 

Assumptions used by the Adviser due to the lack of observable inputs may significantly impact the resulting fair value and therefore the Fund’s results of operations and financial condition.

 

The following table presents the investments carried on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities by level within the valuation hierarchy as of December 31, 2022.

Significant Unobservable Inputs

 

As of December 31, 2022, the Fund had Level 3 investments valued at $69,585,558. The fair value of investments valued at $258,937,549 in the Fund’s Schedule of Investments have been valued at the unadjusted NAV by the managers of the investments.

 

The classification of an investment within Level 3 is based upon the significance of the unobservable inputs to the overall fair value measurement. The following table summarizes the valuation methodologies and inputs used for investments categorized in Level 3 as of December 31, 2022.

Restricted securities are securities that may be resold only upon registration under federal securities laws or in transactions exempt from such registration. In some cases, the issuer of restricted securities has agreed to register such securities for resale, at the issuer’s expense either upon demand by the Fund or in connection with another registered offering of the securities. Many restricted securities may be resold in the secondary market in transactions exempt from registration. The restricted securities may be valued at the price provided by dealers in the secondary market or, if no market prices are available, the fair value as determined in good faith using methods approved by the Board.
