Extension: Market risk calculation for private equity fund-of-funds

Record: kaal:position:2026-08-08-141 · 2026-08-08

Market risk calculation for private equity fund-of-funds states that asset-level look-through is infeasible because the number of underlying assets makes it too costly and time-consuming. This supplies a portfolio-complexity mechanism consistent with Kaal's account of why managers can struggle to determine sensitive counterparty exposures. The abstract does not concern Form PF or show that benchmark estimates satisfy its reporting duty.

Affirmed commentary position. This record extends a source-bound scholarly claim but is not a verbatim paper claim.
