LAC provides investment advisory services to pooled investment vehicles (the “LAC Funds”, the
“Funds” or “Clients”) that are exempt from registration under the Investment Company Act of 1940,
as amended. The LAC Funds’ securities are not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, and are privately placed to qualified investors.
The LAC Funds include LAC INV-3D Limited Partnership, LAC INV-RAIS LP, LAC INV-Tinubu
LP, LAC INV-RS, LLC, and LAC INV-RS (Offshore), LLC, each of which invests in a single
portfolio company, (together, the “Single Investment Funds”) as well as Long Arc Capital Fund I,
LP and Long Arc Capital Fund I (Lux) SCSp (together, “LAC Fund I”) and LAC Co-Investors CB,
L.P., LAC Co-Investors Concertiv, L.P. and LAC Co-Investors Skaleet, L.P. (“Co-Investment
Funds”). LAC and its affiliates provide services to each LAC Fund in accordance with the limited
partnership or similar governing agreement of such LAC Fund (each, a “Partnership Agreement”)
and, where applicable, the investment management agreement between LAC and such LAC Fund.
As noted above, One Fund Management S.A. serves as the appointed third-party AIFM to LAC
Lux Fund I, and LAC was delegated the portfolio management responsibilities as Investment
Manager to LAC Lux Fund I. In connection with the structuring and marketing of a new LAC Fund,
LAC or its affiliate forms a primary LAC Fund, the Partnership Agreement of which typically
permits the General Partner of the primary LAC Fund to form one or more parallel funds (each, a
“Parallel Fund”) or one or more alternative investment vehicles (each, an “AIV”) to accommodate
the investment requirements of certain investors. Any such Parallel Fund or AIV generally will
invest side by side with the primary LAC Fund in all portfolio investments on the basis of available
capital. In addition, the Partnership Agreements of the LAC Funds typically allow the General
Partner of the LAC Fund to establish one or more co-investment vehicles to facilitate investment
by certain investors in some or all the investments made by an LAC Fund. The term “LAC
Funds” as used herein includes co-investment vehicles, AIVs and Parallel Funds formed for such
purposes in addition to the primary LAC Funds.
LAC
provides investment advisory services directly to the LAC Funds and not individually to the
investors of the LAC Funds. Each Partnership Agreement contains restrictions on investing in
certain securities or types of securities as well as other limitations. Certain LAC Funds or their
General Partners, without any further act, approval or vote of any Limited Partner, may enter into
side letters or other similar agreements with certain Limited Partners. Such agreements may include,
without limitation, rights or altered or supplement provisions in respect of co-investments,
economic terms, excuse or exclusion from investments, timing of capital contributions, transfers of
Interests in the LAC Fund, tax and structuring matters, reporting and information rights,
confidentiality, notice requirements and other representations, warranties, or diligence
confirmations.
LAC employs a growth equity investing strategy, investing in private companies that LAC believes
are poised for rapid, organic growth after reaching a critical inflection point. LAC’s primary focus
is to buy majority equity stakes in businesses with high growth potential that may be young, but are
fully formed, where the product-market fit has been demonstrated and where the unit economics
are compelling. Within growth equity, LAC focuses on companies that create technologies, that
leverage technologies, and those where technology can be transformational.
LAC is affiliated with Long Arc Capital (UK) LLP, an appointed representative of Kroll Securities
Ltd (f/k/a Duff & Phelps Securities Ltd). Long Arc Capital (UK) LLP is authorized and regulated
by the Financial Conduct Authority.
LAC was founded in April 2016 and first reported to the SEC as an exempt reporting adviser in
October 2017. LAC registered with the SEC as a registered investment adviser in September 2020
and is principally owned by Gaurav Bhandari with his affiliates.
As of December 31, 2023, LAC managed $597 million of Regulatory Assets Under Management on
a discretionary basis on behalf of 10 Clients. It should be noted that for the purposes of calculating
Regulatory Assets Under Management and consistent with SEC guidance, the Firm included all
unfunded capital commitments.
