The private markets are complex, and sometimes funds just don’t perform as expected. 😕 For an #LP, reanalyzing with different assumptions can help—but outputs will only be as good as their inputs are. If an allocator’s model treats all private #funds the same, that’s a red flag. 🚩 Beyond unexpected fund performance, LPs face a number of other cash flow management challenges, including: 🔹The denominator effect: When part of a #portfolio decreases dramatically, diminishing the total value of the portfolio, as happened following the Global Financial Crisis (GFC) and amid 2022’s market dip. 🔹Overallocation to the private markets: Portfolios aren’t distributing #capital back at the anticipated rate, creating a dilemma for #allocators that would normally fund their capital calls from new commitments with distributions. To learn about why stellar cash flow management is so important for LPs and the PitchBook tools they can leverage to create better strategies, check out our recent blog post: https://lnkd.in/dG-kgZZd
