Recently I came across an article on the internet, just curios how many of you actually agree with the article. It is a good read nevertheless. (Link: https://www.firmex.com/thedealroom/entering-age-search-fund/)

Looking forward to your comments.

Best,

It will be interesting to see how the large variance of returns impacts the popularity of the model as the first large batches of companies come of age and cash is returned to investors. 30%+ average IRR sounds great but the median does way worse. Will investors who back one or two and don't see a return continue to invest in the model?

Living in Miami, FL, I noticed that there are many folks doing ETA. Would be interesting to take a look at ETA outside MBA. As the deals sizes, from a informal review, are ranging on the self-funded model.
