Reporting

The Reporting module is a robust decision support tool that goes beyond summary statistics, offering comprehensive reporting capabilities based on accurate, complete and unbiased data from the investors (LPs) processed by State Street custodial and accounting services. Reporting results provide valuable insights into private capital market performance, trends and liquidity, and empower subscribers to make more informed investment decisions.

Reporting subscribers can access such metrics as:

  • Since-inception internal rates of return (IRRs) and multi-period horizon IRRs (1-, 3-, 5-, 10-year, and since inception)
  • Quartile analysis by vintage year, strategy, sub-strategy and region
  • Dry Powder analysis including contributed capital, unfunded commitment, and cumulative dry powder by vintage year
  • Activity ratios including monthly paid-in capital to total commitment (PICC), distributions to paid-in capital (DPI), residual value to paid-in capital (RVPI), total value to paid-in capital (TVPI)
