I'm skeptical. Most of these funds disclose at least the categories of assets they invested in - what is this asset class called and can you point me to a prospectus that mentions it?

You'll notice Insight Venture Partners (an investor in Twitter) and Khosla on the list, to highlight a couple.


To add to that, university endowments are also a big component of VCs, in addition to pension funds.

I think a couple years ago a judge ordered Berekely to release the fund performance figures for the VCs they had money in, and most of them don't even do well (measured in terms of IRR).


Er do you not know anything about how collective investment in things like pensions Unit trusts and Investment trusts work.

Most of the big main stream IT's have a proportion of there capital in pe/vc - read the annual reports
