Frequently asked questions

What is a drawdown notice?

A drawdown notice, also called a capital call notice, is the formal request a fund's GP issues to an LP to pay a portion of their committed capital by a stated due date, including the amount, percentage of commitment and bank payment instructions.

What should a capital call notice include?

A capital call notice should include the fund and manager name, the investor, the notice/call number and date, the total commitment, capital previously called, this drawdown amount and percentage, the cumulative and remaining commitment, the payment due date and bank wire instructions.

How much notice is required for a capital call?

The notice period is set by the fund's governing documents — commonly around 10 business days, though it varies. Always check the limited partnership agreement or subscription documents for the contractual notice period.
