Co-Investment Rights.
The contractual right for an LP to invest additional capital in side-by-side positions on the platform or on add-ons.
How Co-Investment Rights actually gets done.
Define co-invest rights pro-rata to the LP's deal commitment.
Build a 30-day decision window so the deal does not stall.
Limit co-invest fees and carry, if any, to reflect the relationship value.
Document the right in the LPA, not in a side letter.
Granting unlimited co-invest. The next LP finds out and your firm economics suffer.
"Co-investment is a privilege you give to the LPs you want to keep. Define it accordingly."Jason Powell · Co-Investment Rights
