We welcome material General Partner investment within a fund. Such an investment can demonstrate a close alignment of investor and manager interests, but it will be for bidders to demonstrate that any potential conflicts of interest can be overcome. For example, the legal agreements will have to contain provisions to prevent the General Partner taking action as a Limited Partner that would be detrimental to the legitimate interests of other LPs.
