Today we’re keeping the performance-based comp discussion going and looking at “Carried Interest” or “Carry” for short: performance-based compensation for closed-end funds – VC, PE, etc. One big structural difference from open-ended funds is that the GP typically doesn’t get performance-based comp on paper (i.e., unrealized) gains. For a refresher on closed-end vs open-end funds, listen to Episode 9.
Instead, proceeds from monetization events get distributed among the partners in proportions dictated by a complicated cascading mechanism in the fund’s offering documents. That cascading mechanism is called: The Waterfall!
Key Points From This Episode:
- Background on the Waterfall concept and an elegant analogy to help you visualize it.
- Examples of the waterfall in action – from simple to more complex.
- Descriptions of “preferred return” and “GP catchup” provisions.
- Ways to make the Waterfall even more complex.
- American vs European waterfalls.
