SVG Capital
 
 
Overview: 

SVG Capital is a private equity investor and fund management business listed on the London Stock Exchange (ticker: SVI).

Investment objective
SVG Capital’s investment objective is to achieve capital appreciation by investing principally in private equity funds that are managed or advised by Permira, a leading international private equity specialist*.

In addition, SVG Capital invests in private equity funds that invest in Japan, North America, Asia and the life sciences sectors, and in unquoted and quoted businesses through specialist funds and co-investments alongside these funds. The Company may also invest in other private equity related assets and alternative asset classes.

To complement this investment objective and create capital and income for the Company, its fund management business structures, markets, manages and advises products for investment in private equity, private equity related assets, alternative asset classes and in public equity using private equity techniques.

Investment policy
The Company invests principally in private equity funds managed or advised by Permira, which provide it with exposure to a portfolio of companies that are diversified by vintage year, size, geography and industry sector. Under current legislation, the Company operates so as to ensure that, at the point of acquiring or adding to its investment in any company or group, its holding in that company or group does not exceed 15% by value of its overall investments. In order to enhance shareholder returns, the Company has a desired average level of gearing of approximately 20% over time.

Performance as at 31 December 2009

In the twelve months ended 31 December 2009, net assets per share (including the December 2009 Directors' unaudited valuation of SVG Advisers) increased 7.1% to 222.9p, with fully diluted Shareholders' funds (excluding the December 2009 Directors' unaudited valuation of SVG Advisers) increasing to 198.2p per share.
History: 

SVG Capital was established in May 1996 as a result of an exchange offer made to all investors in Schroder Ventures private equity partnerships for their limited partnership interests in exchange for shares in SVG Capital. 31% by number and 27% by value took up the offer and SVG Capital was listed on the London Stock Exchange with holdings in 23 funds and net assets of £187 million.

In the twelve months ended 31 December 2009, net assets per share (including the December 2009 Directors' unaudited valuation of SVG Advisers) increased 7.1% to 222.9p, with fully diluted Shareholders' funds (excluding the December 2009 Directors' unaudited valuation of SVG Advisers) increasing to 198.2p per share.

Since its inception, SVG Capital has had a strong relationship with Permira (formerly Schroder Ventures Europe) and has invested in all of the Permira Funds.
