According to one CFO at the PEI CFO COO 2020 Forum in NYC last week that brought together over 600 industry professionals, it might be talent management, as he suggested they could be a potential way to attract and retain employees, especially the millennial kind!<\/p><p>While that was shared either in jest, or frustration, or both, the concern is real \u2013 PE firms are being forced to acknowledge and address how they are positioned for succession planning, both at the investment team level, as well as at the management company. Investors, including some of the world\u2019s largest pension funds, are making billion dollar bets on which GPs can outlive their founding and best performing talent, while at the same time sun-setting those that will be moving on, to ensure smooth transitions.<\/p><p>The other key themes have remained the same across the last few years:<\/p><ul><li>The ever-changing role of the GP CFO<\/li><li>Talent Management and Technology remain highest on the minds of GP CFOs surveyed by EY<sup>1<\/sup><\/li><li>Diversity &amp; Inclusiveness are no longer nice-to-haves \u2013 investors and performance demand it<\/li><li>Concerns about whether GPs and Investors are fully protecting themselves for the eventual market correction<\/li><\/ul><p>Our Chief Marketing Officer, Tom Pittman, led an interactive, standing-room only working group at the Forum outlining our experience with carry plan structures and waterfall sequences, and some of the best, and sometimes unique, practices we have observed, such as charitable contributions of carry at the GP level to answer the activist call of their changing

have to contemplate are:<\/p><ul><li>How best to structure Founder carry \u2013 perhaps on a sliding scale, but for how long<\/li><li>Providing fee and carry-free avenues for Founders to be able to continue investing capital<\/li><li>Providing tails on carry<\/li><li>Funding capital calls with pre-tax dollars<\/li><li>Planning for potential clawbacks<\/li><\/ul><p>However it\u2019s not as simple as switching point allocations from the old to the new, as most GPs have grown exponentially in terms of AUM and headcount \u2013 and the challenge is how to adequately incentivize and reward everyone, without diluting the interests of the most critical team members.<\/p><p>That\u2019s where phantom carry is an attractive addition to the compensation strategy, though it does come with some additional nuances, including that it needs to be paid via payroll, how will the phantom carry pool be determined, whether there is a way to utilize pre-tax dollars to contribute to the pool, and how will it all be tracked, including termination considerations for forfeitures or accelerations of vesting.<\/p><p>With all of this, spreadsheets have met their match \u2013 there are too many scenarios and too many data points for a lean finance team to be managing.<\/p><p>The majority of the firms we are speaking with have the ability <u>NOW<\/u> to transition to a\u00a0digital alternative \u2013 one that provides clear audit trails <em>and<\/em> transparency to finance teams, GP management and carry recipients.<\/p><p>On the flip-side, we have been in discussions with GPs, who in the midst of the discovery process with us, lose the one key person that knows everything there is to know about their internal spreadsheet, and all the comments, formulae, adjustments, etc. found across the multiple tabs. The one common comment they had shared prior to that person\u2019s departure:<\/p><h5>\u201cwe\u2019re good for now because our process works\u201d\u2026<\/h5><p>What most GPs may fail to appreciate is that migrating from internal spreadsheets to a secure, cloud-based, database driven system will require them to dig into and clean up their existing data. As one CFO put it, \u201cthe most significant challenge in migrating [from spreadsheets to a digital environment] was going through all the historical transactions maintained in different Excel-based files\u2026 By having to explain the data to third parties, it forced [them] to more carefully explain the way certain transactions were treated\u2026 \u201d<sup>2<\/sup><\/p><p>EWM Global is leading the digital revolution of the carry plan experience for GPs and carry recipients alike, directly addressing the call to action from another CFO at the Forum \u2013 \u201cit is critical that GPs provide some way for the employees to understand what they have earned and how it works\u201d.<\/p><p>EWM Global\u2019s clients already have 24\/7 online and mobile access to all their carry points, vesting, values and detailed transaction history \u2013 are you ready to digitally transform your carry experience?
