HVPE REPORTS RECORD MONTH FOR INVESTMENT AS SEEDED REAL ASSETS
VEHICLE COMPLETES FIRST DEAL
-- HVPE invests $112 million into HarbourVest Funds during February 2019
-- Majority (90%) invested into real assets vehicle as it completes first deal:
o A complex secondary fund restructuring
o Acquisition of a global portfolio of infrastructure assets
spanning Spanish toll roads, North American airports and Australian
ports
-- HVPE stands to receive a share of third-party management fee revenue from the Vehicle
HarbourVest Global Private Equity Limited ("HVPE" or the
"Company") has reported a record month for investment into
HarbourVest funds in February, driven largely by the completion of
the first deal in a real assets vehicle it seeded last June (the
"Vehicle"). HVPE is also pleased to announce that as the initial
seed investor with a commitment of $150 million, it stands to
receive a share of third-party management fee revenue from the
Vehicle.
The first deal in the Vehicle has seen approximately $150
million invested through a complex secondary fund restructuring in
a global portfolio of high quality core infrastructure assets
including Spanish toll roads, North American airports and Australia
ports. The assets are mature operating assets which are expected to
deliver long-term capital growth as well as generate an attractive
income yield going forward. Further details can be found here:

Richard Hickman, Director of Investment and Operations at HVPE,
said: "We believe that increasing the Company's exposure to real
assets over the longer term is complementary to HVPE's existing
strategy and offers an element of diversification to the Company's
traditional private markets portfolio, thereby helping to deliver
consistent NAV growth through the cycle.
"Furthermore, the prospect of receiving a share of future
third-party management fee revenue from the Vehicle will enable
HVPE shareholders to participate alongside the Investment Manager
in the Vehicle's success, offering the prospect of an incremental
return over and above that derived from the assets themselves. We
believe that this long-term alignment with HarbourVest is an
encouraging development for shareholders as HVPE seeks to build on
its excellent performance track record and broaden its appeal to
public market investors seeking to benefit from compelling
opportunities available in the private markets."
