Key Performance Metrics Hello, this is Hall T. Martin with the Startup Funding Espresso -- your daily shot of startup funding and investing. In running a fund, you’ll need to track key performance metrics. Metrics should cover performance at all levels, including individual investments, the overall fund, and how it compares to other VC funds.  Investors will want to see the numbers at all levels, including the following: Fund’s investment cost and current valuation. Total Value to Paid in Capital which is the value of the fund relative to what has been invested by the limited partners so far. Change in value, quarter over quarter and year to date. IRR numbers for investment exits. Residual Value to Paid-in Capital. There are also metrics for the limited partners' funds, including the following: Capital committed, capital called, and the capital outstanding to be called. Fees paid. Limited partners’ percentage ownership. Limited partners' cost basis and current valuation. Change in value, quarter over quarter and year to date. Total cash returned to limited partners. Finally, include benchmark metrics comparing your VC fund to similar funds.
