Many LPAs will prevent your fund to invest in another fund. Investment into a non-operating company like a fund most likely counts against your 20% non qualifying investment bucket to maintain the VC exemption for the Manager.

What type of LPA will allow us to invest in a fund that is focused specifically in a sector that would not conflict with direct investment into other sector portfolio companies?
