ONGOING ROTATION IN THE PENSION SYSTEM


Ongoing changes within the $18 trillion pension market benefit leading Alternative asset
managers with Alternatives set to grow from 20% of the pension system to 30% which would
result in $180 billion in inflow for leading hedge funds, P/E, and real estate firms.

HISTORICAL PERFORMANCE ACROSS CYCLE


The most important attribute of an asset manager is performance, which drives flows. OZM has
a 20-year track record of creating alpha. Thus, the current short-term underperformance should
mark a great entry point for new shareholders.

THE HUNT FOR YIELD


The start of 2014 is seeing market rotation into higher-yielding equities. OZM shares offer a 5%
yield sourced from its management fee alone, which is before considering an additional 5%
when the company produces incentive fees in-line with its historical average.

CONCLUSION
1

3

OZM shares appear overly discounted in the short term because of


concerns around performance and legal issues creating an attractive
buying opportunity

The company has proven that it can deliver strong investment


performance across the cycle, which should insulate investors
against downside risk. The companys legal issues could take years
to resolve and the firm has not yet been charged with an infraction
Pension fund asset rotation is creating a secular growth tailwind for
the Alternative asset managers. This tailwind, coupled with decent
performance and dividends should enable a 100% total return over
the coming 5-year timeframe.
