Tiger Global<\/a> Management gathered about $2.2 billion for its latest venture-capital fund, well short of a $6 billion target and its smallest fundraising haul in roughly a decade, according to people familiar with the matter. <\/p>\n

Last week\u2019s final close of Private Investment Partners 16 fund<\/a> marks the first time a Tiger venture pool attracted less cash than the vintage that preceded it. <\/p>\n

That\u2019s a stark reversal after years of robust investor demand, with Tiger raising successively bigger funds to back hundreds of startups annually. Tiger\u2019s last fund of $12.7 billion was its largest ever. <\/p>\n

Now Tiger faces the most difficult fundraising climate in years, with investors growing more cautious about VC and private equity bets after valuations slid and deals dried up. <\/p>\n

With firms slow to return cash, clients have limited ability to make new investments. Many private equity and venture firms have recently missed or cut their fundraising targets, including Apollo Global Management Inc., Carlyle Group Inc. and Insight Partners. <\/p>\n

It\u2019s the latest in a series of challenges for Tiger. In November, the firm announced that founder Chase Coleman would take over for venture chief Scott Shleifer, who stepped down to become a senior adviser. <\/p>\n

Shleifer had led the push to rapidly invest just ahead of an industry downturn, which prompted the firm to mark down its VC portfolio by 33% in 2022 and an additional 6% last year. The giant PIP 15 fund in particular was marked down 18% at the end of September after the firm slashed valuations for multiple portfolio companies. Tiger\u2019s early expectation was to raise $8 billion for PIP 16, but the firm told investors in October 2022 that it was targeting $6 billion. By the following February, it revised that to $5 billion, as higher interest rates squeezed Silicon Valley startups and spooked investors, the Wall Street Journal reported. As of June, PIP 16 had gathered $2.06 billion. <\/p>\n

A spokesperson for New York-based Tiger, which manages almost $50 billion, declined to comment.<\/p>\n

PIP 16 will back startups mostly in enterprise technology with a focus on the US and India, making investments over multiple years. Tiger insiders \u2014 traditionally the biggest investors in their funds \u2014 are putting more of their own cash in PIP 16, accounting for about 20% of its assets, up from roughly 10% for the most recent funds. <\/p>\n

PIP 16 has been in the market for about 18 months \u2014 longer than what the firm has typically needed to lock down cash. It delayed the final close in part to give investors more time following Shleifer\u2019s transition, one of the people said. Some clients also asked for a longer runway to sort out internal budgeting. <\/p>\n

Tiger is trying to rebound from a rough few years. The firm\u2019s assets totaled $100 billion in 2021, with about two-thirds of that sitting in the venture arm. By September 2022, the figure had tumbled to $50 billion. While Tiger\u2019s hedge and long-only funds posted gains last year, they\u2019re still digging out from declines in 2022, when they both lost more than half of their value.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
