LP QUALITY, WHY IT MATTERS, AND HOW TO DILIGENCE IT
A thread for investment managers, emerging and not.
These are my suggestions from my own experience - I would encourage GPs to chime in here, I know there are people on here that have put a lot of thought into this.

Super interesting report from @juniper_square on the state of VC.
53% of VCs are looking to improve portfolio monitoring. Top area for forward-looking technology investment. 👀
Not surprised based on what we're seeing.
Time to build! @metrics_co

.@rooociowu has been investigating the capabilities of #FedNow, the forthcoming American real-time payments system. In her first @Forbes contributed column, she compares its international peers.

2) GPs with swift communication on direct and indirect exposure appreciated in this moment.
From one large LP:
"Many of our VC GPs don't have dedicated IR and are too busy dealing with their own exposure and helping companies to return our call"
This is a fun day. World, meet @ashbyhq: The Data-Driven ATS

Heard from a VC LP this week:
“Very hard to underwrite anyones track record right now - regardless of how they have marked their portfolio. There are too many bad companies sitting on a lot of cash. We will wait for fallout and dispersion to become more clear.”

@jay_farber told me that he ran into someone that said our email outreach wasn't "juicy" enough...
That's not okay.
Allow me to make our case. 🍊🍇🍓
First quarterly update (of many to come) on the VC landscape by Juniper Square!
In the first half of 2021, the value of U.S. VC exits set a new annual record at $372.2 billion.
The story of the first half of 2022 is very different.
In our new blog, we discuss the state of the venture space and what the year ahead looks like.

All for speed to market but AngelList is not the platform for full time fund managers. You need to own your LPA, have a lawyer on call and truly sweat the details.
One of those weeks that we can be 100% sure our descendants will look back on in shame. So many heartbreaking stories will come of this. Our country just got a few degrees worse.
Excited to have you onboard!😃
Just finished an intro call with @juniper_square and we signed up on the spot for their services.
Cannot wait for the level up this will provide us!
I don't know who needs to hear this, but i just spot-checked a few layoff lists from 2020 and ALL of them still had publicly available names, emails, etc. These lists are great but if you start one, please deprecate it to protect folks' privacy.

Super classy move by a venture fund I backed:
Before issuing the first capital call, they proactively emailed every single LP and asked them if they wanted to *reduce* their investment amount given market conditions
“We do not want anyone to have anxiety over their commitment”

$250M just isn’t that much money…
It blows my mind that much richer, smarter, better people can’t beat these backward fucks.
