Introduction

This report provides a summary of recent private fund industry statistics and trends, reflecting

data collected through Form PF and Form ADV filings.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.

This report reflects data from Second Calendar Quarter 2021 through First Calendar Quarter

2023 as reported by Form PF filers.2 Please see the Appendix for information on the categories of

Form PF filers, the definitions of capitalized terms, a description of the boxplots used in several

figures, as well as other technical descriptions.

The Staff continues to work with data reported on Form PF and with filers to identify

and correct filing errors. 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, the 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 First Calendar Quarter 2023 Private

Funds Statistics, please contact:

Tim Dulaney, PhD, FRM, Tim Husson, PhD, FRM, or Trevor Tatum at FormPF@sec.gov with subject

line “First Calendar Quarter 2023-Private Funds Statistics”.

1

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 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.

2

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.

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.

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.6 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.7 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.8

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.

6

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.

7

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.

8

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.

61

October 16, 2023

Analytics Office

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”).

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”).

5

Other Private Fund Advisers

All advisers required to file Form PF that are not Large Hedge Fund Advisers or Large

Liquidity Fund Advisers must file Form PF annually to report data about each private fund

managed by the adviser.9 These “annual filing advisers” include smaller fund advisers, Large Private

Equity Fund advisers, and venture capital fund advisers. Annual filers must provide specific

information about each of the private funds they manage on an annual basis.

9

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.

Analytics Office

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.10

How to Read a Boxplot

In these figures, the boxes extend from the twenty-fifth percentile to the seventy-fifth percentile,

while the levels (the dashed vertical lines) extend from the tenth to the twenty-fifth percentile as well

as the seventy-fifth to the ninetieth percentile. Also shown as a red line within the box is the median

(the fiftieth percentile) and the horizontal dashed line is mean of the distribution. See Figure 25 for

an explanation of each feature.

Figure 25: How to Read a Boxplot

10

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.

Analytics Office

Mitigating the Effects of Outliers

Form PF data occasionally contains spurious outliers. While Analytics Office staff actively

engages in outreach to identify and correct such values, not all aberrant values have been corrected

as of this writing. To reduce the effect of these outliers on the aggregate measures reported here, we

have chosen to winsorize or trim some data sets.

Winsorization is a technique for reducing the effect of outliers by reducing the size of the largest

and smallest values in a distribution.11 For example, to calculate a 95%/5% winsorized data set, all

the values above the ninety-fifth percentile are set to the value of the ninety-fifth percentile, and all

the values below the fifth percentile are set to the value of the fifth percentile. Effectively, this

procedure makes the very largest values smaller (but still large), and all the smallest values larger

(but still small). This approach can be more effective than trimming (simply removing the largest

and/or smallest values) because it does not change the number of data points and does not change

the median or other percentile values within the 95%/5% range. All instances of winsorization or

trimming have been noted and include the affected percentiles.

11

Such techniques are known as ‘robust statistics’, reviewed for example in Wilcox (2012), Introduction to Robust

Estimation & Hypothesis Testing, 3rd Edition.
