Description of Advisory Services
FGP provides investment advice and management to privately placed investment funds (“Funds”) and separately
managed accounts (“SMA”). Funds and SMAs are collectively referred to herein as “Clients.” Investment advisory
services are provided to each Client pursuant to a separate investment management agreement between each
Client, or the confidential offering documents in the case of a Fund, and FGP.
FGP provides discretionary investment management services applying traditional processes across five strategies:
Frontier Markets, Global Equity, International Equity, International Equity Small Cap and Multi-Asset.
FGP Frontier Market – the strategy’s investment objective is to achieve significant long-term capital appreciation
and investment income through selective investments in securities traded on various frontier market stock
exchanges. The Frontier Market strategy invests primarily in frontier market securities, which are publicly-traded
equity securities from approximately 60 countries that may have smaller economies or less developed capital
markets than traditional emerging markets.
FGP Global Equity – a concentrated portfolio of generally 15-35 global companies that generate high free cash flow,
pay dividends, and have strong brands and balance sheets. In addition, the firms generally have below average
valuations and return excess cash to shareholders through dividends or other means.
FGP International Equity – a portfolio consisting of generally 15-35 equity securities of non-U.S. issuers. In addition,
the firms generally have below average valuations and return excess cash to shareholders through dividends or
other means.
FGP International Equity Small Cap – a portfolio consisting of generally 20-40 equity securities, with a market
capitalization of at least 100 million USD at time of purchase, of non-U.S. issuers. In addition, the firms generally
have below average valuations and return excess cash to shareholders through dividends or other means.
Multi-Asset – based on
the client’s underlying account investment objectives, a diversified portfolio comprised of
(1) defensive assets intended to help to preserve principal, provide current income and hedge inflation; (2) return-
generating assets that emphasize after-inflation capital growth; and (3) strategy-specific objectives that define the
percent to invest in defensive and return-generating assets. Assets can include but are not limited to stocks, bonds,
cash, options, commodity interests, commingled funds, and publicly traded real estate investment trusts.
FGP’s strategies and the risks involved are further described in response to Item 8, below.
The Funds conduct a private offering of their interests (“Interests”) to certain qualified investors as described in
response to Item 7, below (such investors and perspective investors are referred herein as “Investors”).
