- mediumFull (100%) GP catch-up to a 20% carryA 100%-rate catch-up routes every post-pref dollar to the GP until it has caught up to its full carry, before the LP sees any split. Combined with a high carry this materially front-loads GP economics. A graduated (e.g. 50/50) catch-up would keep the LP in the cash flow during the tier.
- lowDDQ gap: What is the minimum LP investment?The offering documents don't answer a standard institutional DDQ question (Structure). An allocator will ask this directly — the GP should be ready with an answer.
