Background: Was recently invited to be a part of the carry/GP commitment for my firm's new fund, and I'm just a simpleton from Smalltown, USA, so I'm looking for some input from other folks who live in that world or made the transition. Figured I would arm myself with a bit more info here before I start asking dumb questions at my firm....
- Firstly, do other folks at the firm typically know who else is in the carry pool? I feel fine asking questions of some of my mid-level/more senior coworkers, but don't know if it's a taboo subject/weird to bring it up if they don't know that I'm in (obviously the partners know I'm in).
- Documentation - when the fund opens up (or prior to) should I expect to get a fair bit of documentation? An LPA or some kind of GP document? Things I need to sign? Where should I expect the terms of carry vesting and such to be outlined? I presume I'm a term-taker here, but worthwhile to have a lawyer/tax advisor review anything?
- GP Commitment - my firm doesn't do anything esoteric or crazy when it comes to the GP commitment (as far as I know), but is the deal basically that I'll get a letter outlining my tiny portion of the capital call and I just wire it to the specified location?
- How complicated is my tax situation going to be? I've always been a self-preparer but we do structure a number of our investments as pass through entities so I expect I'll be getting K1s as well (and tax distributions?). I don't have an overly complex tax situation at present, but I'm also not a HNW individual with financial advisors and the like.
Anyways, I'd welcome any other input/color/context/advice from folks who have gone through this recently (hopefully there are a few since everyone and their brother is raising a new fund these days...).
