Looking at all vintages from 2005 to 2014, the top 5% TVPI is between 40% to 127% better than the top quartile TVPI. Although there are many factors at work, one challenge of those vintages is that most of those portfolios more or less came of age when the 2008 economic crisis occurred.

For example, from a post in 2008 about Rally’s $16.85m financing , I riffed on the origins of the company. Congrats to my friends at Rally Software on the announcement that they’ve signed a definitive agreement to be acquired by CA Technologies for $480 million. Rally started out life as F4 Technologies.

So, the lens of 2005 (history) and 2025 (future) is the one I’m currently enjoying. The Big Short is picking up major steam in 2005. The climax happens in 2008 and the denouement continues on until 2011. Instead, I generally like a ten year moving window to process things.
