Additionally, the executives invest their own money into vehicles that invest into and alongside the funds and which entitle them to receive a carried interest in the profits generated by each fund. This closely aligns the economic interests of the executives with the investors. PORTFOLIO COMPANY COMPLIANCE WITH THE WALKER REPORT We recognise the need for transparency in our investment activity and each of our portfolio companies and portfolio exits can be found on this website. In addition, further comment on the investments and exits in a specific year are included in each of our Annual Reviews.
