Core Capital provides investment advisory services to pooled investment vehicles (the
“Funds”). In general, Core Capital is managing the harvesting and liquidating stages for the
Funds through exit strategies coordinated in the best interest of the Funds, however Core
Capital has made follow-on and/or additional investments into existing companies. The
below paragraphs describe at times in the present tense Core Capital’s general investment
approach although Core Capital is not making new investments in new portfolio companies.
Please see Item 8 for more information on Core Capital’s investment strategies and
associated risks.
Core Capital coordinates with the general partner or managing member of each Fund, which
are comprised of Core Capital personnel but can and have included non-managing third
parties or former Core Capital personnel (also non-managing);
for simplicity, unless
otherwise indicated, this Brochure references Core Capital throughout. For more
information on the general partners and managing members, please see Item 10 of this
Brochure.
Core Capital focuses on private, early stage, venture capital investments, with a focus on
companies based in the broader Mid-Atlantic area, and which are in enterprise software,
cloud management, e-commerce and payments, data analytics mobility and software
security. Investments generally are non-controlling, and Core Capital typically invests
alongside other investment funds seeking long term capital appreciation. Core Capital
provides investment advice directly to the Funds, and not to the individual investors within
those Funds; and provides the advice pursuant to each Fund’s respective governing
documents. Before investing in any Fund, investors must read the respective governing
documents for more information about each Fund. All material terms are generally
established at the time of the Fund formation, and investors generally cannot impose
additional restrictions on the Fund. However, Core Capital, on behalf of the relevant Fund,
has entered into side letters with some investors. In certain cases, these side letters modify
terms not available to other investors. Investors generally are not permitted to withdraw or
redeem interests in the Funds. Please see Item 8 of this Brochure for more information on
Core Capital’s strategy and the associated risks.
As of December 31, 2023, Core Capital managed approximately $1,054,823,696 on a
discretionary basis. Core Capital does not manage any assets on a non-discretionary basis.
