Investor Information. Capital Account.

Purpose

The Capital Account information presented for the current period and since inception provides each Limited Partner (LP) of the fund with current and cumulative information on their individual commitment in the fund and allows analysis of income and capital allocations.

The descriptions below reflect a typical limited partnership structure for the fund vehicle. Accordingly, the format may need adapting to accommodate other legal structures such as those used in continental Europe involving allocation of returns to different classes of shares.
