Notable Quotes 2
Although the extent of the impact of the holdings in the Sun Capital Cases is unclear, the possibility of trade or business characterization remains a risk for the Access Fund and private equity funds generally, especially in the First Circuit.
Investments in the Access Fund should therefore be considered only by persons financially able to maintain their investment for an extended period of time, who can afford a loss of all or a substantial part of their investment and have the financial ability to satisfy capital calls.
Red Flags 3
- Illiquid investment with restrictions on withdrawals, transfers, and redemptions.
- Potential for loss of all or a substantial part of the investment.
- Lack of control or participation in the management of the Underlying Fund.
