easy · Private Equity

An institutional investor calculates the Kaplan-Schoar Public Market Equivalent (KS-PME) for a 2018 vintage fund.

If the result is 1.15, how should the investor interpret the fund's performance?

  1. The fund outperformed the public market index by 15%.
  2. The fund has returned $1.15 for every $1.00 invested.
  3. The fund underperformed the index because the result is less than 1.5.
  4. The fund's internal rate of return is exactly 11.5%.
