Fund Information. Related Party Transactions and Conflicts of Interest.
Purpose
Fund formation documents will typically describe the mechanisms for disclosure of related party transactions and disclosure of and resolution of conflicts of interest, which will involve reporting either to Limited Partner Advisory Committee (LPACs) or to all Limited Partners (LPs) as appropriate.
Related party transactions in respect of fees earned by the General Partner (GP).
Any such reporting should ensure the LPAC or LPs are provided with sufficient information to judge the appropriate treatment of such matters.

Over the time, any asset manager who does more than plan to manage own assets faces the problem of a transparent and convenient management infrastructure.
In certain circumstances, most notably in the case of a Venture fund, some of the information may be considered confidential and therefore not disclosed; however, such non-disclosure should be agreed with LPs to ensure appropriate disclosure is still being made.
