Working with Dropdown Funds
The following flows apply to drawdown funds:
initial fund/offering setup (see Flows: For All Investment Vehicles)
transfers (see Flows: For All Investment Vehicles)
initial investments
capital calls
distributions
The initial investments for a drawdown fund have the following flow, with securities issued when the Asset Manager or Fund Admin runs a close for a batch of accepted shares. This flow assumes that:
The investing org has been assigned to the fund.
The investing org has accepted that assignment.
The Integration API refers to the initial step in subscribing as "creating an asset."
