On this week’s episode of Unlimited Capital, Richard McGirr interviews Gene Trowbridge. They unpack how fund-of-funds legally solve the age-old capital-raising problem while navigating broker-dealer rules, why co-GPs rarely fix compensation issues, and what sponsors should demand from FOF managers. Gene deciphers 506C vs 506B offerings, the importance of disclosure, side-letter transparency, and third-party accreditation. They also explore investor relations dynamics, skin-in-the-game structures, and customizable funds—all while watching for potential SEC finder-definition shifts.
