Performance Fee - Worked Example

Worked Example

An example might be as follows: An investor subscribes for shares worth $1,000,000 in a hedge fund. Over the next year the NAV of the fund increases by 10%, making the investor's shares worth $1,100,000. Of the $100,000 increase, 20% (i.e. $20,000) will be paid to the investment manager, thereby reducing the NAV of the fund by that amount and leaving the investor with shares worth $1,080,000, giving a return of 8% before deduction of any other fees.

Famous quotes containing the word worked:

    These last worked only one hour, and you have made them equal to us who have borne the burden of the day and the scorching heat.
    Bible: New Testament, Matthew 20:12.

    An artist’s originality is balanced by a corresponding conservatism, a superstitiousness, about it; which might be boiled down to “What worked before will work again.”
