Discount and Liquidity Initiatives
Pacific Alliance Asia Opportunity Fund Limited ("PAX" or the
"Company") (AIM: PAX), the closed-end investment company admitted
to trading on AIM and listed feeder for Pacific Alliance Asia
Opportunity Fund L.P. (the "Master Fund"), announces that following
the Master Fund's recent purchase of 20,730,708 of the Company's
ordinary shares, which made it a substantial shareholder with a
direct interest in 27.27 per cent. of the Company's voting rights,
the Board is evaluating new initiatives to reduce the share price
discount and enable shareholders to realise the value in their
holdings at or close to the Company's Net Asset Value.
The Board expects to complete its evaluation and announce these
new initiatives in the coming week.
