Private Markets Investor Letter

At the end of the second quarter, our participants have committed a total of EUR 98.7 million in capital to the Kempen Private Markets Fund. We have committed almost the same amount to ten partnerships and two direct co-investments – a well-diversified portfolio. In this quarter we allocated additional capital to three current investments in the portfolio, so that the allocations to the various categories are more in line with the target weights. We also saw a lot of activity at the underlying partnerships level and we are very satisfied with the build-up of the portfolio. All investments are focused on good value-creation strategies. We will elaborate on all of these topics in this quarterly report.

Investing with a purpose

In this quarterly newsletter, we take a closer look at the world of responsible and sustainable investment. At Kempen Capital Management N.V. (hereafter Kempen), Environmental Social Governance (ESG) factors are fully integrated throughout our investment process, and for us responsible investment means being good stewards of the companies that we invest in. We encourage positive change through engagement with the management of our investee companies and through actively using our shareholder voting rights.
