Catch-up call for a late LP

A new LP at a later close is onboarded, called for what earlier LPs already paid and charged equalization, and the earlier LPs are made whole.

Ask Operator

Start it in a sentence

Ask Operator in chat. It drafts the plan for your fund, and nothing runs until you release it.

  • You

    Admit the LP from the second close and send their catch-up call.

  • You

    Onboard this investor and level them with the first-close LPs.

  • You

    Work out the equalization for the new LP.

The outcome

The new LP is admitted and paid in on the same terms as everyone else, equalization is booked, and the earlier LPs have their rebalancing back.

What it proves

  • Runs the investor onboarding playbook as its first step, and waits for the LP to be admitted.
  • Works out catch-up, interest and rebalancing from the calls already paid, citing the LPA.
  • Drafts no call until an accountant has checked the figures.
  • Sends the catch-up notice against the exact preview you approved.
  • Waits for the due date before anything is booked.
