In contrast to closed end funds, it also permits frequent subscription, which shortens the time needed for the capital’s initial usage.
The tactics also make it possible to redeem at regular intervals up to a specific maximum.
This will change the traditional strategy to vintages and increase the investment component by enabling Mediobanca’s clients to access a greater number of counterparties across all types of assets and be more flexible in their allocation.
Apollo Global Management, a asset manager with around $598bn in assets under management, will be involved in the initial placement.
