What GPs Need to Know: Managing Open-Ended Funds

Open-ended fund structures demand operational infrastructure that can keep pace. From continuous capital flows to navigating FX exposures and liquidity, with perpetual capital comes perpetual complexity.

This primer provides a clear-eyed view of how General Partners (GPs) can take advantage of what open-ended structures offer while managing the unique complexities they introduce.

Key learnings

  • Continuous subscription and redemption activity creates dynamic, unpredictable shifts in hedge exposure that require active, ongoing rebalancing.

  • Bank credit appetite is structurally lower for open-ended funds. Expect a narrower counterparty pool and pressure toward shorter-dated hedge tenors.

  • Liquidity reserves, historic rate rollovers, facility draws, and hedge product selection must be carefully orchestrated.
