It will provide an overview of the key activities of the Fund over the medium term, covering the set up and then ongoing operation and management of the Fund; Scoping the support required to enable an online application process channelled through ANW website; and Scoping any legal input or other external advisory support required for launch of the fund. The second stage will provide advisory support to operate the fund during the deployment period and it is envisaged this will be over a minimum 5-year contract period. The advisor will be responsible for sourcing investments, undertaking due diligence, developing investment business cases, and recommending investments for approval and then providing regular progress and monitoring reports on the performance of investments and the portfolio of the Fund. It should be noted that the investment strategy is a live document that has built-in flexibility to change throughout the life of the fund in response to changing market demand and conditions.
