Any reinvested capital (resulting from recallable distributions) should be included in the denominator. Perhaps the best available measure of performance before the end of a fund's life.

GIPS: Total value divided by since-inception paid-in capital.

Transaction costs
The costs of buying or selling investments. These costs typically take the form of brokerage commissions, exchange fees and/or taxes, and/ or bid–offer spreads from either internal or external brokers. Custodial fees charged per transaction should be considered custody fees and not transaction costs. For real estate, private equity, and other private market investments, transaction costs include all legal, financial, advisory, and investment banking fees related to buying, selling, restructuring, and/or recapitalizing investments but do not include dead deal costs.

Transaction fee(s) and Broken deal fees
A transaction fee is a fee charged by the GP, or its related party, in relation to the purchase or sale of a portfolio company. Increasingly, transaction fees also include any directors’, monitoring, or other fees charged by the GP or its related parties in connection with portfolio companies during the holding period of the investment. The treatment of transaction fees is agreed in the fund documentation, usually requiring their offset (either wholly or in part) against the management fee. Broken deal fees (also referred to as “abort costs”) are costs incurred by the GP in pursuing a deal that does not reach completion (e.g. accountants, lawyers, due diligence costs, etc.).

Transfers of interest and Secondary investments
“Transfers of interest” is a term typically used to refer to the transfer of an LP’s contractual commitment and interest in an existing fund to another LP. It may also be referred to as a secondary investment. In contrast, the term “secondary direct sale” is used to describe the sale by a fund of its interests in one or more portfolio companies to a fund managed by a different GP.
