General partner (GP)

The entity that manages a private fund organised as a limited partnership, bears its liabilities and earns carried interest; in practice, the investment firm.

In practice

The GP usually delegates day-to-day management to an affiliated management company that receives the management fee.

In FUN/D

FUN/D keeps GP entity and management company books alongside the funds.
