If an investor fails to meet their capital call obligations, the consequences are governed by the Limited Partner Agreement (LPA). Typically, there are strict penalties, such as interest on unpaid amounts, forfeiture of the investor's interest, or selling the defaulting partner's interest at a discount. The general partner has discretion on handling defaults, which may include leniency or pursuing legal remedies. Each fund's LPA will detail specific actions and penalties.
