E36 • Jan 26, 2024 • 24 mins

Anubhav Srivastava, CEO of Tactyc, sits down with David Weisburd to discuss iterative portfolio construction, portfolio size impact, fund recycling and check size, reserve strategies, and follow-on investments. They also explore the future of Tactyc and lessons from clients.

Key Points

  • Reserve ratios for pre-seed and seed funds vary significantly based on fund size, with smaller funds around $25 million typically maintaining a 20-25% reserve, while larger funds of $70 million or more may target closer to 50%.
  • Most venture funds, particularly those in the early stages, should prioritize achieving a critical mass of around 35 to 40 investments to ensure enough shots on goal, rather than focusing primarily on reserve ratios.
  • Tactic's software provides venture capital funds with essential tools for both raising funds and managing them effectively, emphasizing iterative portfolio construction and continuous optimization of fund performance.
