PIP's valuation policy for private equity funds is based on the latest valuations reported by the managers of the funds in which PIP has holdings. In the case of PIP's valuation as at 30 April 2022, 13% of reported valuations are dated 30 April 2022, 6% are dated 31 March 2022, 78% are dated 31 December 2021 and 3% are dated 30 September 2021. Of the 13% of valuations dated 30 April 2022, 11% reflect the mark to market fair value adjustment for PIP's listed company holdings.

At 30 April 2022, PIP's private equity assets stood at £2,249m, whilst net available cash balances^ were £208m. The Asset Linked Note^^ ("ALN") outstanding as at 30 April 2022 amounted to £50m. Undrawn commitments to investments stood at £752m as at 30 April 2022, calculated using exchange rates at that date. PIP's multi-currency revolving credit facilities comprise a US$269.8m facility and a €101.6m facility, which remained undrawn as at the month end.     

PIP made £29.7m of new commitments during the month which were to one primary (£11.4m), two secondaries (£9.2m) and one co-investment (£9.1m). These included:

·    An £11.4m primary commitment to Hg Genesis 10, a European buyout fund focused on the software and services sectors.

·    A £9.1m co-investment alongside Ergon Capital Partners in Satlink, a Spanish provider of satellite-based devices and services for the sustainable fishing industry.
