Diligence findings (6 · 2 high/critical)
- highDDQ gap: Does the fund engage an independent auditor?The offering documents don't answer a standard institutional DDQ question (Governance). An allocator will ask this directly — the GP should be ready with an answer.
- highDDQ gap: Does the fund have a GP clawback provision?The offering documents don't answer a standard institutional DDQ question (Economics). An allocator will ask this directly — the GP should be ready with an answer.
- mediumA 7% preferred return is stated but no waterfall tier pays itKey economics declare a preferred return, yet none of the extracted distribution tiers reference a pref/hurdle or carry a threshold rate. A pref that lives only in the summary — not the distribution mechanics — may not be contractually enforceable.
- mediumDDQ gap: Does the fund use a third-party fund administrator?The offering documents don't answer a standard institutional DDQ question (Governance). An allocator will ask this directly — the GP should be ready with an answer.
- mediumDDQ gap: What is the GP's capital commitment (skin in the game)?The offering documents don't answer a standard institutional DDQ question (Economics). An allocator will ask this directly — the GP should be ready with an answer.
- 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.
