  • Fund Design is for investors and sponsors launching a new fund, evolving beyond deal-by-deal investing, or refining existing structures for better alignment and scalability.

  • Key elements typically include strategy alignment, capital structure design, economics and promote modeling, governance framework, operational workflows, and investor-ready materials.

  • While timelines vary by scope, most Fund Design engagements take 4–8 weeks from kickoff to final blueprint, working collaboratively with your team and advisors.
