Past performance does not guarantee future results.
An investment in the Fund is subject to a high degree of risk.
An investment in the Fund is speculative and requires a medium-to-long-term commitment, with no certainty of return.
Returns: Returns generated by the Fund’s investments may be insufficient to compensate Shareholders adequately for the business and financial risks that must be assumed. There is no guarantee that the Fund’s performance will meet any target or projected return.
No capital guarantee: The value of investments may fall as well as rise and Shareholders may not get back the amount invested. Past performance does not predict future returns and past performance or overall track record of MAM or any MAM Managed Entities cannot be taken as an indication of future performance of the Fund.
Liquidity: There is no guarantee of liquidity at the time an Investor submits a redemption request and an Investor’s ability to have its Shares redeemed by the Fund may be limited and at times an Investor may not be able to liquidate its investment in the Fund. Investors should have the financial ability and willingness to accept the risks and lack of liquidity associated with an investment in a Fund of the type described herein.
Risks associated with investments in infrastructure
The Fund’s objective is to make investments in infrastructure assets and other assets with similar characteristics. Investments will be subject to the risks incidental to the ownership, construction and operation of infrastructure assets, including risks associated with the general economic climate, geographic or market concentration, the ability of the Sub-Fund to manage the investment, technical problems, financial failures of operating or construction sub-contractors, government regulations, and fluctuations in interest rates. Since investments in infrastructure and similar assets, like many other types of long term investments, have historically experienced significant fluctuations and cycles in value, specific market conditions may result in occasional or permanent reductions in the value of an investment.
In addition, general economic conditions in relevant jurisdictions, as well as conditions of domestic and international financial markets, may adversely affect operations of the Sub-Fund. In particular, because of the long lead-time between the inception of a project and its completion, a well-conceived project may, as a result of changes in investor sentiment, the financial markets, economic, or other conditions prior to its completion, become an economically unattractive investment. With respect to Investments in the form of real property (if any), the Sub-Fund will incur the burdens of ownership of real property, which include the paying of expenses and ad valorem and other real property taxes, maintaining such property and any improvements thereon, and ultimately disposing of such property.

1. There can be no guarantee that MAM will be able to successfully implement its investment strategy, achieve its investment objectives, or avoid substantial losses. The target net return presented here is an estimate of future performance based on evidence from the past on how the value of this investment varies, and/or current market conditions and are not an exact indicator. What you will get will vary depending on how the market performs and how long you keep the investment/product.
2. Target returns are not a reliable indicator of future performance. Target returns are based on facts and assumptions that MAM believes to be reasonable. Actual returns may differ significantly from targeted returns indicated herein. Targeted performance is not a guarantee, projection or prediction and is not necessarily indicative of future results. The Target Net IRR calculation is an aggregate target internal rate of return for the Fund overall. The Target Net IRR for each investor in the Fund may differ depending on the size and timing of such investor’s capital commitment. The scenarios presented are an estimate of future performance based on current market conditions and are not an exact indicator. What you will get will vary depending on how the market performs and how long you keep the investment/product. Future performance is subject to taxation which depends on the personal situation of each investor and which may change in the future and may lead to a financial loss if no guarantee on the capital is in place. The Target Net Return assumes (a) management fees and performance compensation charged to the Fund in accordance with the headline terms generally expected of strategy (b) offering and organizational expenses incurred directly by the strategy at the maximum capped amount indicated in the Memorandum (c) no management fee offset and (d) annual, ordinary ongoing partnership expenses. Actual expenses or costs of the Fund may vary significantly from such assumptions, which could result in a materially lower Net Return. The target Net Return for individual investors in the strategy may differ depending on the size and timing of an individual investor’s Capital Commitment.
3. Payment of dividends are at the Board of Directors’ discretion and are not guaranteed.
4. Higher minimum investment requirements may apply in accordance with local laws.
5. Redemptions are not guaranteed. A 5% NAV limitation is applied per quarter. Early redemption deduction of 5% of the NAV per share is applicable to redemptions of shares that are held for less than 2 years.
6. Please note this is subject to change and subject to investment committee approval. There is no guarantee that investors will be able to participate in this asset or that they will be able to participate in such investment on acceptable terms. Additionally, participation in any of the seed assets is not certain and will be subject to factors which are beyond our control including, without limitation, the raising of sufficient capital to invest in the deal.
7. The ranking presented herein is awarded in July 2024 and is the opinion of IPE Real Assets and not of Macquarie. No such person creating the ranking is affiliated with Macquarie or is an investor in Macquarie-sponsored vehicles. IPE Real Assets surveyed and ranked global infrastructure investment managers. The ranking is based on infrastructure AUM as of March 31, 2024. AUM defined by IPE Real Assets as total gross asset value of all assets managed and committed capital (including uncalled). There can be no assurance that other providers or surveys would reach the same conclusions.
8. Note: MAM Internal analysis and views. There is no guarantee that the benefits outlined will be achieved by any investment. Past performance does not indicate future returns. Capital is still at risk – the value of investments may fall as well as rise and you may not get back the amount originally invested.
9. As at 30 September 2024. MAM Private Markets Assets under Management (AUM) includes equity yet to deploy and equity committed to assets but not yet deployed.
10. As at March 31 2024, the number of people reached is calculated by taking an estimate of the number of users for all MAM Real Assets portfolio companies.

Portfolio company data is collected from MAM’s asset management teams on a bi-annual basis.
11. As at 31 December 2024.
12. As at 31 December 2024. MAM defines AUM as proportionate enterprise value, calculated as proportionate net debt and equity value.
