Fundraising Has Slowed For Several Reasons

 Page  7  

“Over the last two years, alternative asset allocations have declined and the exit market has suffered, putting venture firms in the unenviable position of communicating their value in an extremely challenging environment.

- Mark Heesen, NVCA

Current cash-flow needs have shifted some LPs asset allocations away from illiquid and alternative asset classes such as VC & PE

A Fork In The Road: Market Equilibrium Must Return (One Way Or Another)

•  VC exit activity of $16B in Q3 is at the highest levels since 2007 with good valuations

•  VCs returning capital to LPs again •  VCs are investing at levels of $5 - $6B per quarter... •  But LPs are funding VCs at at just $2 - $3B per quarter

 Page  20  

•  Venture capital declines to match lower LP investment in VC

•  VC continues at today’s level if LPs increase allocation to VC sector
