Key events during the quarter
- In 4Q23 our USD NAV increased 5% QoQ, ending 2023 up 16% YoY. Key NAV drivers continue to be improved portfolio company forecasts and outlook, combined with strengthening peer multiples, all driven by an improving macro and market outlook.
- VEF successfully closed its second SEK 500 mln sustainability bond. The bond effectively rolled our previous issue, at improved terms, with a new duration set to December 2026. An important event that allowed us to de-risk duration matching of expected portfolio exits to our new bond maturity.
- In November, we returned to a core tradition of hosting one of our board meetings in a focus investment geography - India. The mood on the ground was overwhelmingly positive, with a backdrop of political stability, underlying economic growth and buoyant capital markets, driven by both significant domestic and international capital flows.

VEF CEO, David Nangle, comments:
“We finish 2023 on a positive footing. 4Q23 continued a 2023 trend of better, and incrementally more positive with each passing quarter. The 16% (USD 60.4 mln) growth in NAV in 2023 benefitted from strong macro and market level performance. At a portfolio level, growth remains robust and forecasts are bottoming out – in many cases we are starting to revise up estimates again.”
