CQS RIG FINANCE FUND LIMITED
Monthly Shareholder Fact Sheet
CQS Rig Finance Fund Limited (the "Company"), a closed-ended investment
company incorporated in Guernsey, is pleased to announce that its
Monthly Fact Sheet for January 2014 is now available on the Company's
website (www.cqsrigfinance.com) and includes further information on the
top ten investments and outstanding borrowings.
Softer-than-anticipated economic data from the US and China during
January, coupled with the US Federal Reserve's tapering of its asset
programme, exacerbated headwinds for Emerging Markets, catalysing a
sell-off in assets and raising inflation concerns. US non-farm payrolls
for December disappointed, regardless of their distortion by abnormal
weather conditions. In China, manufacturing PMI fell below 50,
indicating a slowdown in the economy. The situation in Europe improved,
with composite PMI data reaching its highest levels since the middle of
2011, although the outlook for growth remained weak. In January, the
MSCI World Index fell 3.2%, the MSCI Europe Index fell 2.3% and the MSCI
AC Asia Index retreated 5.4%. Credit indices on both sides of the
Atlantic widened.
Against this backdrop, the Company's NAV rose approximately 0.6% to
close the month at 36.26p. A number of strategies made modest profits,
the largest of which was on the new deal issued by Metro Exploration
Holding Corp. Profits were partially offset by minor losses on outright
convertible bond positions which were marked down slightly as underlying
stocks were sold off over January.
There was one new deal of interest during the month, with Metro
Exploration Holding Corporation issuing a 2-year $186m deal with an
increasing coupon structure. The coupon will rise incrementally from
8.0% to11.5%, depending on the length of time the bond remains
outstanding. There is a premium call structure and a first priority
security package over shares and the escrow account. The Company
subscribed for and was allocated an amount of the new issue.
All market data sourced from Bloomberg and MSCI unless otherwise stated.
MSCI index returns are in local currencies with net dividends
reinvested.
