Quill & Ash, a family office, is concerned about 'vintage year risk' in their private equity portfolio. This risk is most closely related to the J-curve because:
- Funds in their first year are exempt from reporting J-curves if they were launched in a recession.

- Management fees are only allowed to be charged in 'vintage years' where the fund is net-profitable.
