2007 consisted of two distinct periods, with the summer’s
Dear Shareholders volatility marking a dramatic transition between the two. After a
period of four years with strong growth, private equity activity
saw a sharp slowdown after credit markets suffered a severe
turmoil. In spite of the difficult environment in the latter part of
2007, AIG Private Equity Ltd. (the “Company”) recorded good
results. Investment income and net income both reached their
highest values since inception of the Company eight years ago.
Investment income was in excess of CHF 125 million and
significantly above prior year’s results. Net asset value per
share increased 13.4% despite the weak US dollar, which hurt
the performance of the Company’s US assets. The Company’s
share price increased by 6.1% in the course of the year, which
compares favorably with the LPX50 Index and equity market
indices. At year-end 2007 the shares traded at a discount of
6.6%. We believe that the Company has a strong and diversified
portfolio with attractive perspectives.
At this year’s annual general meeting, Erich Hort stepped
down from the board of directors, after serving in that capacity
for eight years since the Company’s founding in 1999. We thank
Mr. Hort for his very strong support from early days and value
his contributions greatly. Win Neuger also stepped down from
the board of directors and returned to the Company’s invest-
ment committee. Robert Thompson was elected to the board of
directors. Mr. Thompson is the Head of AIG Investment’s world-

The year ended on a somber note, with credit markets in
turmoil, volatility abounding and a sense that further uncer-
tainty lies ahead. The start into 2008 has been challenging.
Financial and equity markets posted substantial losses and
volatility in January and March. Both share price and net asset
value have decreased. The decline of the net asset value is
entirely due to the weakening of the US dollar and the Euro
against the Swiss franc. Investment performance remained
positive. We expect to see exit and investment activity from

MANAG E M E NT R E PO RT
AIG Private Equity Ltd. (the “Company”) recorded a successful year in

2007. The Company’s net asset value (“NAV”) per share increased 13.5%
from CHF 160.63 to CHF 182.27 despite the further weakening of the
US dollar (–7.1%) against the Swiss franc which led to lower reported
values for US dollar assets. The Company’s share price increased 6.1%
and ended the year at CHF 170.00. The Company recorded the highest

the solid performance of the Group in 2007. During the year, the Group,
recorded four full sales, two partial sales, two announced exits and two

several portfolio companies which saw valuations increase based on

Note 21: Subsequent Events

In January 2008 the Group converted the USD 50 million syn-
dicated standby credit facility into a syndicated credit facility
in the amount of USD 100 million. The syndicate is lead by
Zurcher Kantonalbank and comprises in total six banks.
The Group has made the following new capital commit-
ments from January 1 2008 through April 30, 2008:
Advent International GPEVI EUR 20 million

CVC European Equity Partners V EUR 20 million
Ares Corporate Fund III USD 20 million
This new commitment was made in the ordinary course of busi-

ness. We anticipate funding the majority of the commitment
over a six-year period. Following the expiry of the investment
period of a fund, only minor capital drawdowns (fees and
follow-on investments for existing portfolio companies) are
expected. These may be offset by distributions from these
funds. Based on the Group’s cash flow model and bank facili-
ties, sufficient liquidity is available to fund capital calls.
Between January 1, 2008 and March 31, 2008, the following
aggregate investment related cash flows have been recorded
(by the partnerships under the commitments existing as of
December 31, 2007 and direct investments):

We have examined on a test basis evidence supporting the
amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial state-
ments. We have also assessed the accounting principles used,
significant estimates made and the overall consolidated finan-
cial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides
a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In accordance with Article 20 of the Additional Rules for the
Listing of Investment Companies of SWX Swiss Exchange we
draw attention to Note 1 of the consolidated financial state-
ments. As indicated in Note 1, the financial statements include
unquoted investments stated at their fair value of CHF 847.9
million. Because of the inherent uncertainty associated with
the valuation of such investments and the absence of a liquid
market, these fair values may differ from their realizable
values, and the difference could be material. The fair values of
these investments have been determined by the Board of
Directors and have been disclosed in Note 1. We have reviewed
the procedures applied by the Board of Directors in valuing
such investments and have viewed the underlying documen-
tation. While in the circumstances the procedures appear to
be reasonable and the documentation appropriate, the deter-
mination of fair values involves subjective judgment which
cannot be independently verified.
