Full Translation
Fubon Financial Holdings, acting on behalf of its subsidiary Fubon Life Insurance, announces the acquisition of an interest in StepStone VC Secondaries Fund VII (Cayman) LP. StepStone VC Secondaries Fund VII is a Cayman Islands limited partnership managed by StepStone Group, a global private-markets investment firm; 'VC Secondaries' refers to a strategy of purchasing existing limited-partnership stakes or portfolios of venture-backed company shares from other investors, providing liquidity to sellers while offering buyers potentially discounted entry into seasoned private-market assets. For Fubon Life Insurance, participation in such a fund is consistent with life-insurance asset-liability management practice, whereby long-duration insurance liabilities are matched with alternative investments targeting illiquidity premiums. Fubon Financial Holdings is filing this disclosure as the listed parent on behalf of its unlisted insurance subsidiary in accordance with TWSE material-event reporting rules.
