Markdowns for a struggling portfolio company that hasn't raised funds in 3 years are determined by the valuation policy adopted by the fund. The valuation policy should provide guidelines on how to value such investments. This could involve considering the company's financial performance, market conditions, or other relevant factors. If the company's performance has deteriorated or if it's facing significant challenges, a markdown may be appropriate.
