St Peter Port, Guernsey 17 April 2025
NB Private Equity Partners (NBPE), the $1.2bn1, FTSE 250, listed private equity investment company managed by Neuberger Berman, today announces an analysis of the potential impact of US trade tariffs on its portfolio.
Following the Trump Administration’s announcement on 2 April 20252, Neuberger Berman has – alongside the underlying private equity sponsors across its platform – worked to assess potential impacts of tariffs on its investment holdings. Specific to NBPE, we believe the direct impact of tariffs is generally expected to be limited. We believe that 14% of the portfolio’s fair value could be directly impacted by tariffs, with approximately 1% of fair value likely to be meaningfully impacted. This analysis only considers the direct impact from tariffs and not second-order impacts resulting from any potential economic slowdown. We continue to believe the portfolio’s emphasis on companies with lower expected cyclicality and/or long-term secular growth drivers, alongside reasonable leverage, generally positions it well.
An updated investor presentation on tariffs is available on the investor relations section of NBPE’s website at www.nbprivateequitypartners.com
