Portfolio Update
22 June 2018
Blue Capital Alternative Income Fund Limited, whose shares are
admitted to trading on the London Stock Exchange's Specialist Fund
Segment and the Bermuda Stock Exchange, is pleased to provide a
portfolio update.
Mike McGuire, CEO of Blue Capital Management Ltd. ("Blue
Capital"), commented:
"In light of the board of directors' recommendation to
shareholders of an orderly run-off of the Company, Blue Capital
ceased making new investments on behalf of the Company pending the
outcome of a Special General Meeting of Shareholders expected to be
held in July 2018."
As of 1 June 2018, the Company's ordinary share net asset value
was $130.3 million, consisting of investments in Blue Capital
Global Reinsurance SA--1 (the "Master Fund") at fair value of
$104.4 million and collateral of $25.9 million in trust relating to
expired or loss affected contracts with counterparties.
The Master Fund's existing investments are in preferred shares
of Blue Water Re Ltd. The combined investments represent collateral
deployed across 36 different positions and 17 different clients
generating an estimated $25.6 million of net reinsurance premium.
The business underwritten by the reinsurer is expected to produce a
net rate on line (premium rate as percentage of limit) for the
portfolio of 21.5%. The expected net rate of line is provided for
illustrative purposes only and does not take into account the
impact of any loss event, actual costs, expenses or other factors.
As such, it should not in any way be construed as forecasting the
Company's actual returns should no losses occur or otherwise.
A breakdown of the current portfolio is set out below:
