Not very helpful but thanks
Any fund with an industrial or consumer-heavy portfolio (including a number of the funds you listed above) is really feeling a pinch right now - tech has been relatively insulated, and in some case, winners due to shifts to online spending.
How has fundraising generally worked in this environment? Anyone know if processes got slowed/canceled or if anyone was successful in pushing to close?
Processes have definitely slowed, but established funds (i.e those listed here) have mostly been able to push their fundraising to a close while newer funds have faced more difficulties extracting commitments (resulting in lowered targets/postponed fundraising etc)
The pecking order of "Top" funds hasn't really materially changed from what you've mentioned. LPs like legacy names and therefore will continue to commit big capital to those who can deliver consistent returns. I realise that some of the funds you mentioned may have had supbar performance per some LP filings, but that generally won't deter them from having a healthy capital raise. This is an industry dictated by relationships and prestige unfortunately so the names you mentioned typically (obviously with some exceptions) won't lose their standing as top PE funds. Hope this answers your question. Let me know if not happy to be more specific.
