This is a report of the Staff of the Division of Investment Management’s Analytics Office of the U.S.

Introduction
This report provides a summary of recent private fund industry statistics and trends, reflecting
data collected from Form PF and Form ADV filings received through March 21, 2025.1 Form PF
information provided in this report is aggregated, rounded, and/or masked to avoid potential
disclosure of proprietary information of individual Form PF filers. Masked data in this report is
denoted by “***”. Please see the Division of Investment Management’s “Investment Adviser
Statistics” report on SEC.gov for information and statistics relating to advisers not presented in this
report. For complementary aggregate information based upon Form PF data, see the Federal
Reserve’s Financial Accounts of the United States. Please see the Appendix to this report for
definitions of capitalized terms, other technical descriptions, and significant changes to Form PF over
time.
This report reflects data from Third Calendar Quarter 2022 through Third Calendar Quarter
2024 as reported by Form PF filers.2
Please see the Appendix for further information on the categories of Form PF filers, including
Qualifying Hedge Funds, Section 3 Liquidity Funds, Section 4 Private Equity Funds, as well as the
definitions of capitalized terms and other technical descriptions.
Commission Staff continues to work with data reported on Form PF and with filers to
identify and correct filing errors. Commission Staff updates reported statistics based on
amended filings and also may make certain adjustments to the statistics presented to
correct what appear to be clear filing errors. Further, Commission Staff has employed
certain assumptions in aggregating the data. Future adjustments to these methodologies
and amended filings that change the underlying data could lead to changes in previously
reported statistics.
If you have any questions or comments about Third Calendar Quarter 2024 Private
Fund Statistics, please contact: IM-Analytics (IM-Analytics@sec.gov) with subject line “Third
Calendar Quarter 2024-Private Fund Statistics”.

Only SEC-registered advisers with at least $150 million in private fund assets under management must report to the
Commission on Form PF. SEC-registered investment advisers (RIAs) with less than $150 million in private fund assets
under management, SEC exempt reporting advisers, and state-registered investment advisers are not required to file
Form PF, but report general information about the private funds they manage on Form ADV.

The Commission began receiving Form PF filings from Large Hedge Fund Advisers in July 2012. A full data set was
not received until March 2013.

Appendices
11.1
Form PF Filer Categories
The amount of information an adviser must report and the frequency with which it must report
on Form PF depends on the amount of the adviser’s private fund assets and the types of private
funds managed. Reporting advisers must identify the types of private funds they manage on Form
PF.
11.1.1
All Private Fund Advisers
SEC-registered investment advisers with at least $150 million in private fund assets under
management are required to file Form PF. Registered investment advisers with less than $150 million
in private funds assets under management, exempt reporting advisers, and state-registered advisers
report general private fund data on Form ADV, but do not file Form PF.12 Not all Form PF filers
report on a quarterly basis. Smaller private fund advisers and all private equity fund advisers file
Form PF on an annual basis, while larger hedge fund advisers and larger liquidity fund advisers file
the form quarterly.13 As a result of the difference in reporting frequency, information in this report
related to funds that are reported annually may be dated by several months.14
11.1.2
Large Hedge Fund Advisers
Large Hedge Fund Advisers have at least $1.5 billion in hedge fund assets under management.
A Large Hedge Fund Adviser is required to file Form PF quarterly and provide data about each
hedge fund it managed during the reporting period (irrespective of the size of the fund).
Large Hedge Fund Advisers must report more information on Form PF about Qualifying Hedge
Funds than other hedge funds they manage during the reporting period. A Qualifying Hedge Fund is
any hedge fund advised by a Large Hedge Fund Adviser that had a NAV (individually or in
combination with any feeder funds, parallel funds, and/or dependent parallel managed accounts) of
at least $500 million as of the last day of any month in the fiscal quarter immediately preceding the
adviser’s most recently completed fiscal quarter. This report provides information about all hedge
funds reported by Large Hedge Fund Advisers, including Qualifying Hedge Funds and smaller hedge
funds. This report also provides an overview of certain data reported solely for Qualifying Hedge
Funds.
12
Note that these thresholds are on a gross basis. Exempt reporting advisers are advisers that rely on the exemptions
from SEC registration in Advisers Act section 203(l) for venture capital fund advisers and section 203(m) for advisers
managing less than $150 million in private fund assets in the U.S.
13
An adviser may be a large hedge fund adviser that must file quarterly to report data about the hedge funds it manages
as well as a private equity fund adviser that must file only annually to report data about the private equity funds it
manages.
14
In addition, because some Form PF filers have fiscal year ends that are not December 31, not all Form PF data is filed
as of a single date.
63
Analytics Office
11.1.3
Large Liquidity Fund Advisers
Large Liquidity Fund Advisers have at least $1 billion in combined liquidity fund and money
market fund assets under management. On a quarterly basis, such advisers report on Form PF data
about the liquidity funds they managed during the reporting period (irrespective of the size of the
fund). This report contains information about all liquidity funds reported by Large Liquidity Fund
Advisers (referred to in this report as “Section 3 Liquidity Funds”).
11.1.4
Large Private Equity Fund Advisers
Large Private Equity Fund Advisers have at least a $2 billion in private equity fund assets
under management. These advisers are required to file Form PF annually in connection with the
private equity funds they managed during the reporting period. Smaller private equity fund advisers
must file annually as well, but provide less detail regarding the private equity funds they manage.
This report provides information about private equity funds managed by Large Private Equity Fund
Advisers (referred to in this report as “Section 4 Private Equity Funds”).
11.1.5
Other Private Fund Advisers
All advisers required to file F orm P F t hat a re n ot L arge H edge F und A dvisers o r Large
Liquidity Fund Advisers must file F orm P F a nnually t o r eport d ata a bout e ach p rivate fund
managed by the adviser.15 These “annual filing a dvisers” i nclude s maller f und a dvisers, Large
Private Equity Fund advisers, and venture capital fund advisers. Annual filers m ust p rovide specific
information about each of the private funds they manage on an annual basis.
15
This includes “other private funds,” which are private funds that do not meet the Form PF definition of hedge fund,
liquidity fund, private equity fund, real estate fund, securitized asset fund, or venture capital fund.
64
Analytics Office
11.2
Handling Annual and Quarterly Data
Only a subset of filers (Large Hedge Fund Advisers and Large Liquidity Fund Advisers) are
required to file Form PF quarterly; all other filings are made annually. Annual filings are typically,
but not always, made at the end of the calendar year, as Form PF allows filings to be made at the
end of an adviser’s fiscal year. In order to present the most complete and recent data possible, while
accounting for differences in filing dates, we use the following procedure for determining which data
to consider in any given quarter:
First, filings are grouped by their report date within their reported year:
• (Q1): February 15 to May 14
• (Q2): May 15 to August 14
• (Q3): August 15 to November 14
• (Q4): November 15 to February 14
Then, responses for funds that have no information are ‘filled forward’ — essentially, copied
from last reported values — up to a maximum of three quarters. Any fund that has no data four
quarters after its most recent date is no longer counted or included in any calculations.16
11.3
Interval Notation
Interval notation (e.g., [a, b], [a, b), (a, b], and (a, b)) is a way to describe the range of values
specified by an ordered pair (in this case, a and b). In particular, [a, b] includes all values from a to b
including both a and b. [a, b) includes all values from a to b including a, but not b. (a, b] includes all
values from a to b including b, but not a. (a, b) includes all values from a to b excluding both a and b.
16
Form PF has no requirement to inform the SEC if a fund liquidates or otherwise terminates operations. Therefore,
liquidations or terminations may not be reflected on this report for up to one year after ceasing operations.

Definitions
Included by reference are all definitions included in the glossary of Form PF.
Aggregate Exposure
A dollar value for long and short positions as of the last day in each
month of the reporting period, by sub-asset class, including all exposure
whether held physically, synthetically or through derivatives. Includes
closed out and OTC forward positions that have not expired, as well as
positions in side-pockets.
Borrowing
In Form PF, borrowings include secured borrowings, unsecured borrowings, as well as synthetic borrowings (e.g., total return swaps that meet
the failed sale accounting requirements).
CPC
Controlled portfolio company, as defined in Form PF.
Gross Notional Exposure (GNE)
The gross nominal or notional value of all transactions that have been
entered into but not yet settled as of the data reporting date. For
contracts with variable nominal or notional principal amounts, the basis
for reporting is the nominal or notional principal amounts as of the data
reporting date.
Hedge Fund
Any private fund (other than a securitized asset fund): (a) with respect
to which one or more investment advisers (or related persons of investment advisers) may be paid a performance fee or allocation calculated
by taking into account unrealized gains (other than a fee or allocation
the calculation of which may take into account unrealized gains solely
for the purpose of reducing such fee or allocation to reflect net unrealized losses); (b) that may borrow an amount in excess of one-half of
its net asset value (including any committed capital) or may have gross
notional exposure in excess of twice its net asset value (including any
committed capital); or (c) that may sell securities or other assets short
or enter into similar transactions (other than for the purpose of hedging currency exposure or managing duration). The definition of a hedge
fund for Form PF purposes also includes any commodity pool an adviser
reports on Form PF.
IRDs
Interest rate derivatives, including foreign exchange derivatives used for
either investment or hedging.
Large Hedge Fund Adviser
An adviser that has at least $1.5 billion in hedge fund assets under

preceding the adviser’s most recently completed fiscal quarter.
Section 3 Liquidity Fund
A liquidity fund advised by a Large Liquidity Fund Adviser.
Section 4 Private Equity Fund

investments and for all borrowings where the reporting fund is the creditor, “value” means market value or, where there is not a readily available
market value, fair value; for borrowings where the reporting fund is the
debtor, “value” means the value you report internally and to current
and prospective investors.
