medium · Frm Part 2 Risk & Investment Management
A Chief Investment Officer decides to 'pause' all new private equity commitments for 24 months to combat a 15% overweight caused by the denominator effect.
According to commitment pacing models, what is the most likely medium-term consequence of this tactical move?
- An 'allocation hole' will surface 3-5 years later, and the institution will likely miss out on high-performing 'crisis-vintage' returns.
- The management fee burden will increase as a percentage of NAV due to 'zombie' funds.
- The duration of the total portfolio will decrease significantly, reducing interest rate risk.
- The private equity weight will immediately return to target as old funds distribute cash.
