  • DerivedNo commitment to the new fund appears on the plan's filings yet.
Why it matters

This allocator committed to the prior fund of a series that now has a successor fund. Existing LPs are the first calls in any raise, so this is the re-up list for the GP, and for a competing GP it shows whose capital may be in play.

Who this is for

GPs raising a successor fund, placement agents, and competing GPs in the same strategy.

Relationship network

299 connected entities200 observed commitments41 repeat counterparties20 dated commitments shown here, 2025

From board minutes, annual reports, Form 5500 filings and public records of commitments, consultants and staff in the allocator graph. Commitment amounts are those the allocator disclosed; many are not printed, and none is estimated.

Some relationships on this record are counted rather than named here. They open with the full profile.

Click any name or line for the commitments and sources behind it. Line weight is commitments together; dashed lines are inferred.

What stands out
Reading the network
  • Sponsor
  • Fund or vehicle
  • Person

Managers, funds and consultants are read from the commitments: three or more is a strong observed relationship, two a repeat counterparty. No consultant link is marked current on the source, so none is labelled current or former here. Related plans, people and plan service providers are ordered by what the filing shows.

Darker lines were active in the last 24 months or are current; lighter lines are older or undated.

Ranked by the role the firm or its filing states, a route on file and deals led. Every reason is read from the record, never inferred. Routes are published by the person or the firm (their bio, the team page or a filing) and are revealed on a plan; data bought from a provider is never shown, and a route printed at a firm the person has since left is held back.
