Brian Robert Bell: LP, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

Somewhere recently, a friend or a wealthy relative mentioned they're "an LP" in a venture fund. You nodded. You didn't ask what that meant, what they actually own, or when they get their money back.

Venture capital has built some of the largest fortunes in modern finance. It hasn't built an instruction manual for the people funding it. Founders get accelerators and pitch coaches. Fund managers get conferences and trade press. The limited partners, the family offices, the angel investors leveling up, the executives with an unsigned subscription document sitting in their inbox, get almost nothing. They're expected to just know.

Brian Robert Bell has spent his career on that side of the table. He runs a venture fund, he's an LP in several others, and as host of the Ignite Podcast, he's asked hundreds of investors and allocators the questions everyone else was too polite to ask on the record.

LP answers those conversations: what a fund actually is, how fees and carried interest decide who really profits, how to size up a manager before handing them a decade of your capital, and what the GP relationship looks like once the numbers aren't what anyone hoped.

None of it assumes you've done this before. All of it assumes you want the real version, not the pitch deck.
