You chose Options 1C, 2B and 3B.
Based on these selections, a platform provider should complete the following modules:
- Either (i) Modules 1, 2 and 3 (i.e., the basic investment manager set up) or (ii) the short form manager module; and
- Either (i) the closed-end private fund module or (ii) the short form closed-end fund module (without the strategy questions).
For your convenience, these modules have been assembled together into a basic set up version and a short form version which are both presented below.
The short form manager portion of this module represents a subset of the questions found in the Basic Investment Manager Set Up, while the short form closed-end fund module represents a sub-set of the questions in the Closed-End Private Fund Module. The short form option is available to everyone, but is often preferred by emerging managers and managers who want a simplified form to use with investors in the initial stages of the operational due diligence process.
One fund
For platform providers completing the DDQ for only one fund, the versions of the DDQ accesible via the links below are the best possible places to start. Select the one that works best for your intended use. The version marked short form is a subset of the questions in the other document.
Multiple funds under the basic set up
For platform providers that are completing the DDQ with respect to more than one fund and have selected the basic setup approach, it may be easier to complete the Basic Investment Manager Set Up - Strategy module once and complete a separate closed-end private fund module for each fund. Because of the hyperlinks in the documents, separate files have been created for additional funds. Simply duplicating the fund-related parts in the basic setup above or using the document for Fund 1 multiple times will lead to the hyperlinks not functioning as they should. The separate modules are accessible via the links below.
