The year when the fund was established or began its investment period. For example, a fund that started in 2020 would have a vintage year of 2020.

The official name of the investment fund. For example: "Blackstone Capital Partners IX" or "Sequoia Capital Fund 2023".

Each fund type has specific investment and distribution periods that affect how cash flows are modeled:

• PE (Private Equity): 6-year investment period, 6-year distribution period. Focused on mature companies.
• PE-2 (PE Secondaries): 4-year investment period, 4-year distribution period. Purchases existing PE positions.
• VC (Venture Capital): 6-year investment period, 6-year distribution period. Targets high-growth startups.
• Credit: 3-year investment period, 3-year distribution period. Debt investments.
• Search: 4-year investment period, 4-year distribution period. Entrepreneur-led acquisitions.
• Other: For any other investment strategies not listed above.

The investment period is when the fund calls capital to make investments. The distribution period is when the fund typically exits investments and returns capital to investors.

The total amount you've committed to invest in the fund. This is your maximum investment obligation, regardless of how much has been called so far.

The total amount you've actually invested in the fund through capital calls. This is the sum of all capital calls paid to date.

The total amount you've received back from the fund through distributions. This includes both return of capital and profits.

The forecasted Multiple On Invested Capital that you expect this fund to achieve. This target multiple is used to model future cash flows:

• MOIC of 1.0: Expect to receive back exactly what you invested
• MOIC of 2.0: Expect to receive twice your investment
• MOIC of 3.0: Expect to receive triple your investment

This forecast helps calculate expected future distributions for cash flow planning.

How distributions are modeled across the fund's life cycle:

• Backloaded (ON): Models that 75% of distributions will occur in the second half of the distribution period. This is typical for many PE funds where major exits happen later.
• Even (OFF): Models distributions evenly throughout the distribution period. More common in credit funds or funds with regular distributions.

Funds typically have an investment period followed by a distribution period. This setting helps model when you expect to receive distributions during the distribution period.
