Market conditions are putting stress on how much capital LPs can allocate to VC firms. The best firms are demanding greater allocations from LPs given their performance which further strains capital availability. Is your VC in a stable point or is it in a death spiral?

In the U.S. today there are: 20,000 LPs allocating capital to 42,000 VCs, PE firms and angels funding 126,000 private companies. It is a giant many-to-many-to-many matching problem of LPs looking to match with VCs and of VCs looking to match with founders.
