*Definition of 'Funds Under Management'

The total of funds available to fund managers for future European investments (dry powder) plus the amount of funds already invested in Europe (at cost) and not yet divested. It does not include the uncalled capital post investment period.

In the event that you do not invest in Europe but have an investment team in the UK then the funds available to your UK investment team, and invested by the team would apply.
