The European Waterfall follows this naming terminology:
Distributable Proceeds is the amount of proceeds that distributable to all Limited Partners
Tier 1: Initial Investment Return to all Limited Partners until they have been returned their initial investment. This is fixed to 100%.
Tier 2 (optional): Preferred Return to Limited Partners from remaining proceeds to achieve a specified IRR or multiple hurdle rate
Tier 3 (optional): GP Catch-up to General Partners from remaining proceeds to achieve a level commensurate with their profit interest (typically 20%)
Tier 4: GP Carried Interest to General Partners from remaining proceeds based on a carried interest (%)
Remaining proceeds all flow to Limited Partners
The American Waterfall follows this naming terminology:
Distributable Proceeds is the amount of proceeds that distributable to all Limited Partners
Tier 1: Initial Investment Return to Limited Partners from LP attributable proceeds. This is fixed to 100%.
Tier 2: GP Carried Interest to General Partners from remaining proceeds based on a carried interest (%)
Remaining proceeds all flow to Limited Partners
Optional Clawback: If the fund has a clawback provision that lets GP claw into past distributions to LP’s check this option and set the hurdle rate at which GP’s can start clawing back.
If the fund has a GP Commit, these GPs are treated as LPs for the purpose of the waterfall i.e. the GPs will recoup their committed capital along with the LPs and also participate in any preferred returns and LP profits commensurate with the GP Commitment %. These profits to GP (as an LP) are referred to as GP Proceeds in the fund's waterfall in Tactyc.
