('MCC' or the 'Company')(IFQ2), the global private equity investment and advisory company, today announced the launch of a new fund, MCC Global Emerging Growth Fund, L.P. (hereafter the 'Fund'). The Fund seeks to build on MCC’s successful track record of originating, developing, and profitably exiting investments in emerging growth companies around the world. The Fund was established at the request of certain Independent Financial Advisors (IFAs) in the United Kingdom and their high net worth clients who have previously worked with MCC and are concerned by the current poor performance of the world’s major financial markets, the stability of real estate values, and uncertainty over the future price of precious metals. Against this background, MCC believes that emerging growth companies continue to offer attractive risk-adjusted returns. MCC has made discretionary investments from its own capital, primarily in emerging growth companies, since 2001, and has achieved a greater than 25% IRR during this period. In addition, since 2005 when Moore Clayton Capital Advisors, Inc. ('MCCA'), a wholly-owned subsidiary of MCC, was selected by the Board of Equus Total Return Inc (Equus) as its investment adviser, Equus has achieved a 35.7% IRR on invested capital during this period. Equus and MCC each recently issued a press release concerning a successful investment in Infinia Corporation, an investment sourced through MCC’s network. The target size of the Fund is £25 million, and will offer its investors liquidity alternatives after the first year of their investment. MCC Investment Managers Ltd. a wholly-owned subsidiary of MCC, will manage the Fund, which is expected to enhance MCC’s overall revenues from the receipt of management and incentive fees. Moreover, the Fund, structured as a Cayman Islands limited partnership, is expected to provide capital for timely investment in the ongoing flow of high quality deals coming through MCC’s international network. Investors in the Fund are being sought in Europe and the first closing of the Fund is anticipated in April 2008. Tony Moore, Chairman of the MCC Supervisory Board who will also play a key role with respect to the Fund, commented: 'I am delighted that investors are coming to realize that attractive financial returns can be obtained by investing in the private equity emerging growth sector. MCC Global Emerging Growth Fund will enable MCC to continue to offer high quality investment products to institutions and our high net worth clients and relationships, as well as to their financial advisors. We will seek to provide investors in the Fund with a diversified and carefully managed exposure to this high return sector while also accommodating certain investors who may require some liquidity during the life of the Fund.'
