This causes the cost of capital for Flexible VC, often calculated through IRR (similar to an interest rate), can be higher than that of venture debt or traditional RBI. Coinvestors: Flexible VC terms have not been standardized, which may make the investment harder to syndicate. 20-30% is a common target IRR for investors.

Angel investing is an exceptionally high-return asset class; I have collected twelve studies on angel returns in the US and UK, which show median internal rate of return (IRR) between 18 and 38 percent. – If an employee wants to invest at least $25K in a private company, she can nominate it to the Syndicate VC (“SVC”).

One of my comments was that we would likely see more institutionalization of angel groups and syndication of deals among groups. If my math is correct, this is approximately a 31% IRR, which has to beat individual angel investments on aggregate and venture capital returns over the period of the study (1990-2007).

We are syndication agnostic, being indifferent between investing by ourselves or with co-investors – especially our partner funds – where we mostly have long and successful relationships. We are very long-term investors, focusing on net cash on cash returns, rather than short-term or intermediate IRRs.
