Methodology
PRIVATE EQUITY FUNDS

The following fund types are used in PitchBooks PE fundraising data: buyout, co-investment, diversified
PE, mezzanine, mezzanine captive, restructuring/distressed situations, energy (oil & gas and alternative/
renewables) and PE growth/expansion.
VENTURE CAPITAL FUNDS

In addition to traditional VC funds, PitchBook also includes corporate VC funds and seed-stage funds in our
VC fundraising total. Funds that identify themselves as growth-stage vehicles are classified as PE funds in
this report.
CLOSE DATE AND VINTAGE

Unless otherwise noted, the fundraising data in this report is based on a funds close date. The vintage year
is based on the vintage year reported by the GP and LPs, otherwise the year in which a fund holds its final
close is used.
COMMITMENTS

Note that the commitments data in this report is all lagged as they are dependent on reporting cycle,
especially those that are tax-related. Given the lagged nature, certain of the datasets for 2015 and 2016
are not yet complete as they originate in the 6/30/2015-6/30/2016 reporting cyclefor example, 2016
fiscal year reports for tax filings are not available yet. The majority of the commitments data is up through
the end of the first half of 2016. All the commitments within this report are drawn solely from public
pensions, corporate pensions and foundations that are based in the United States. This report only tracks
commitments made to PE and VC funds.
CONTRIBUTIONS & DISTRIBUTIONS

In this report, contributions are defined as the capital that LPs commit to PE or VC funds. Distributions are
the capital that they receive in return. The timeframe is staggered accordingly, as all fund returns reports
through the end of the first quarter of 2016 have been uploaded but some additional reports have also been
filed from 2Q, given typical fund reporting cycles. Accordingly the majority of fund returns data can be
safely estimated as of the end of 1Q 2016 at a minimum.
REMAINING VALUE

In this report, remaining value in LP portfolios is defined as the unrealized or un-distributed value in the PE
and VC funds to which the LP is committed. This data is lagged similarly to contributions and distributions.
TOTAL VALUE TO PAID-IN CAPITAL (TVPI)

A measurement of both the realized and unrealized value of a fund as a proportion of the total paidin, or contributed, capital. TVPI is also known as the investment multiple. This data is lagged similarly to
contributions and distributions.

Introduction
A crucial aspect of the private equity and venture capital landscape to consider is the influence of limited partners.
Beyond the fundraising process, the selection of general partners ends up influencing much of PE strategies, determined
by the evolving structures of limited partner agreements (LPAs). Accordingly, producing a report dedicated to both the
datasets generated by LPs activity as well as those most relevant to their perspective has long been in the making at
PitchBook. Given the nature of private markets in general and the relative opacity around the activity of many LP types,
our first report catering to LPs focuses primarily upon institutional investors, spotlighting a select few public pension
funds. Clarifying the contextual data is always critical, so this report draws mostly from three select LP typescorporate
pensions, foundations and public pensionsand the datasets contained within this report are subject to a typical reporting
cycle lag. Consequently, the data below presents a snapshot of the current status of US limited partners as reflected in the
PitchBook Platform, providing some context around the role institutional investors play within the broader LP landscape.
The median AUM of most LPs is dwarfed by typical financial institutionsthere are many public pensions within the US so
the median assets under management (AUM) is actually skewed relatively low. The valuable role PE plays for quite a few LP
types, however, is clear from looking at current median allocations. Accordingly, we hope that this report serves as a useful
primer on current trends in the interplay between institutional investors and PE and venture managers. As always, feel free
to reach us at reports@pitchbook.com with any questions or comments.

PE & VC commitments
Over the last few years, weve certainly
seen a proliferation of new fund managers coming to market with unique
strategies. As LPs have continued to
back the private asset class, many GPs

have been fairly successful and managers have been able to meet their
targets. In fact, in our 3Q 2016 US PE
Breakdown we reported that 90% of
PE funds were able to close at their

been successful, time to close for many
managers has increased notably, a

trend that we think points to LPs becoming more sophisticated with their
strategies and related diligence efforts.
Further, managers are chasing more
capital as well, evident by the median
fund size for both PE and VC increasing noticeably as of late.

We also see this reflected in our LP


dataset. One of the primary narratives
related to LP commitments to private
asset classes in general has been cutbacks in the number of fund managers
larger LPs are willing to work with.
Being able to write a larger check to a
more concentrated group of managers
helps LPs in fund term negotiations, ultimately enabling them to reduce their
fees and find access to better deal flow
in cases where they may be looking for
co-investment opportunities. Through
all the data currently recorded for the
first half of 2016, median commitment
size came in at the same level as 2015
at a rather massive $50 million. Its
even more pronounced when benchmarked against the consistently declining number of fund commitments
being made.

year, on pace to record the highest


amount of capital raised weve seen
over the last decade, so despite the
median commitment size thus far in
2016 ($15 million) coming in at half the
figure we saw last year, on a historical
basis the figure is certainly higher than
any other year dating back to 2006,
with the exception of 2014 and 2015.

Further, repeat commitment counts are


coming in at the lower end of historical tallies, however, we again see the
median size of such commitments
remaining high, an indication that
larger managers able to cater to larger
LP preferences have been able to take
advantage. Lastly, commitments to
first-time funds have dwindled. As this
report primarily profiles public and cor-

porate pensions and foundations, we


think these LP types have been chief
amongst those looking to shrink the
number of managers they work with.
The proliferation of new managers
over the last half-decade or so cant
be ignored, yet we think many other
LP types such as PE funds-of-funds or
sovereign wealth funds may account
for a larger proportion of investors willing to bet on new GPs and strategies.

Contributions & distributions


US public pension contributions & distributions

Given the cyclical nature of the private


market asset class, it should come as
no surprise that combined PE and VC
distributions to US public pensions are
outpacing called capital for the fourth
straight year. Dating back to 2013, just
over $196 billion has been distributed
back to US public pensions, while just
$155 billion has been called down by
GPs.

Much of continued strong fundraising


totals across both PE & VC can be
explained by the fact the median
distribution size is so high.

Conversely, contributions outpaced


distributions each year between 2007
and 2013, with nearly $82 billion alone
contributed between the years of
2008 and 2009. While much of the
capital that was called down during
that time period can be attributed to
the record-sized funds PE raised just
prior to the 2008 financial collapse,
the jump in distributions weve seen
today in many ways points to the
successful cultivation of assets through
that rough period that has consistently
flowed back to LPs over the last four
years. Now, committed capital has still
grown tremendously over the last halfdecade, seeing an increase of over 53%
since 2010, yet again, the private asset
class has certainly outperformed most
investment classes for public pensions,
who have seen distributions grow by
3.3x during the same period. With
private market fundraising remaining
exceptionally strong even as deal flow
declines across both PE and VC today,
the extensive amounts of capital that
has been returned to pensions as of
late has simply been cycled right back
to private fund managers.

LP direct & co-investment


of direct LP involvement, a figure
on pace to just about match the 114
recorded last year. Today, many GPs
are quite open to having sophisticated
LP co-investors. Lenders are certainly
still able to fund traditional buyouts,
yet many large transactions have seen
managers put up more equity. LPs
can help fund some of that cash as
either GPs remain cautious regarding
the amount of leverage employed or

As LPs have looked to manage their


fee structures with a more refined
approach, the appetite to co-invest
alongside the GPs they back has
grown tremendously in recent years.
Through the beginning of December
2016, nearly $103 billion worth of
transactions involved direct LP dollars,
the highest figure weve seen since
2007. Further, 2016 has seen 103
completed deals that had some sort

lenders may be wary of funding deals


at some of the leverage levels that
have become customary. Further, US
transactions solely led by LPs are on
pace to remain at a somewhat higher
level relative to historical figures, yet
total capital invested appears set to
come in lower. A few LPs such as the
Ontario Teachers Pension Plan and
the Canada Pension Plan Investment
Board have had significant success
investing directly, yet that strategy
is also extremely difficult to imitate
for many LPs. Considerable barriers
including a lack of in-house deal
sourcing, competition from established
GPs, portfolio management and lender
relationships, among others, make
this strategy difficult to execute. With
that, we do think well certainly see
continued strength in the proportion
of transactions that include a direct LP
co-investment.
