Why this template exists

Because most first-time GPs wing their LP updates

Your LPs gave you millions of dollars. They deserve to know what's happening with it. But most emerging managers either send too little (“Things are going well!”) or too much (a 30-page data dump nobody reads). This template strikes the right balance — institutional enough to satisfy sophisticated LPs, concise enough that they actually read it.

We built this template after reviewing quarterly reports from 50+ emerging managers and talking to dozens of LPs about what they actually want to see. The result is a format that covers every base without the bloat.

What LPs actually care about

“I don't need a novel. Give me the performance numbers, tell me which companies are up and which are struggling, and share your honest market perspective. If you can do that clearly every quarter, you're already better than 80% of the GPs I'm invested in.”
