General-Limited Partners Declare War
Buyout firms, also known as general partners (GPs) are jittery over the limited partners’ (LPs) ascendancy. A 17-page document put out by the Institutional Limited Partners Association or ILPA seems to have set the cat among the pigeons. Pension funds, endowments and foundations that are sitting atop tonnes of money to be invested across a spectrum of investible avenues – including private equity – go under the banner of LPs. The GPs who actually run the business of investing don’t bring in their own funds, but access LPs’ coffers. That’s where the catch is.
