abrdn Private Equity Opportunities Trust - Annual overview from QuotedData

12(th) September 2023

Unrecognised success

Given that abrdn Private Equity Opportunities Trust (APEO) is one of the few
ways in which the average investor can access a diverse pool of private equity
managers (many smaller investors do not meet the size threshold to invest
directly in private equity LP funds), and has produced impressive long-term
returns well ahead of comparable equity indices and its peer group average,
one might expect its share price to trade close to its net asset value (NAV).
However, that is clearly not the case currently. APEO continues to trade on a
stubbornly wide discount to NAV of 42.0%, due to investors' fears around
valuations or market outlook, both of which may be misplaced.

The APEO team has been increasing its allocation to co-investments (these are
direct investments made alongside other funds), which should make the fund a
more attractive opportunity, by reducing its underlying fees, and making APEO
a better reflection of the team's highest conviction investments.
