Preqin
Alternative assets data and LP intelligence
4.3Enterprise / CustomBest for GPs raising funds and benchmarking performance
Data LPs Benchmarks
Overview
Preqin, now part of BlackRock, specializes in alternative-assets data across private equity, venture capital, private debt, and real assets. For a GP raising a fund, its LP profiles, mandates, and commitment histories are the core dataset: who allocates to venture, at what check size, and which emerging managers they have backed. It is equally used for fund performance benchmarking — placing your TVPI and DPI against vintage-year peers when reporting to LPs.
