On 16 December 2011, the Company issued a second tranche of C-Shares of US$ 0.0001 through a Placing for Shares. As a result, the Company has raised approximately $338 million since launch. Similarly, the Master Fund received significant additional direct investment in its participating shares during Q411 bringing the total fourth quarter fundraising to over $590 million. The Company's Net Asset Value growth targets of $150 million by 31 December 2011 and $200 million by 31 December 2012 as stated in the Original Prospectus have now been achieved.
CATCo Investment Management Ltd. ("CATCo IM"), the appointed investment manager, in conjunction with CATCo-Re Ltd. ("CATCo-Re"), a licensed Class 3 Reinsurance Company through which the Master Fund gains access to all of their reinsurance risk exposures, have agreed terms on new reinsurance transactions with multiple reinsurance counterparties that have utilized c. 98% of the available capital received from the Issue, from the additional direct investment in the Master Fund and from the rollover of 2011 investments.
At the date of this announcement, the Master Fund's reinsurance portfolio contains a significantly diverse set of global risk pillars. The Master Fund's diversified portfolio, including reinsurance protections, ensures that exposure to a single loss event, no matter the magnitude of the event, results in positive gross portfolio returns for investors in the current financial year, with only slightly negative net portfolio returns possible in a few scenarios as shown below.
Also, regarding the recent Costa Concordia cruise ship accident off the Italian coast, the Master Fund has a maximum net exposure of 3% to Offshore Marine events as shown below. However, based on the insured loss estimates reported to date ranging from $500 million to $1 billion, the Master Fund would not experience any losses.
