Therefore,withsuchfastdevelopmentofprivateequityinvestment,thetalentbottleneckstandsout。

THEREASONOFTHELACKOFGP(GENERALPARTNERS)
ThelackofGPisconsideredasaspecificeconomicphenomenoninChina,itisnotauniversalone.TheGP’slackcanbeexplainedfromthetwoaspectsincludingdemandandsupply.Oneistheexcessivedemandoninvestment,theotheristheinsufficientsupplyofinvestmenttoolsandinvestmentgoods.TheGP'
ssupply,whichisassociatedwiththesupplyside,can’tmeetthegrowthofthemarketdemand。
thereasonofthelackofGPismainlyreflectedinthefollowingaspects:

theImbalanceofEconomyDevelopment
Inthecourseofearlyeconomydevelopment,thedevelopmentoftherealeconomyisputemphasizedon,thevirtualeconomydevelopmentislaggingbehind,sothereisnoGP’slivingspace.AndItalsocausedtheimbalanceinthesupplyofGPandLP.Ontheonehand,thedevelopmentoftherealeconomyformsalargenumberofpotentialsupplyofLP(thesecondreasoninthelater);

ButfromthestrictperspectiveofPE,theyarenotfullsenseoftheGP.Becausetheprivateequityinvestmentnotonlyincludessecuritiesinvestment,butalsootherriskinvestmentbusiness。
Therefore,withtherapiddevelopmentofPE,someoriginalsecuritiesinvestmentfundsandtheirexecutivesarestartingtoturntoPEbusiness,evensoitcannotmeettheneedsofGPfromPEfunds.

1.RiskofthePotential—Transfer—Trust
AsthedevelopmentofPEinChina,PEinvestmentactivitiesappearincreasinglyactive。
Thegeneralinvestors,qualifiedinstitutionalinvestors,evenfinancialinstitutionssuchasthetrustcompany,Bankandinsurancecompany,arepayingcloseattentiontohugecommercialopportunitiesandrichreturnfromPEinvestments,andhavingcertaininvestmentimpulse。
However,thesupplyofGPasaimportantrolerelatedtoPEinvestmentactivitiesisseriouslyinsufficient,andisdifficulttomeetthedemandofinvestorsandPEFunds.Especially,whenthesponsoritselfisnotenoughtobecompetentforGP,andnotwillingtoabandonedsuchmarketopportunitiesatthesametime,someinstitutionscompleteGP’sinvestmentandmanagementfunctionbycooperatingwiththethird-partyinvestmentconsultantsandthemainwayistoemploythethird-partyinvestmentconsultants.Underthiscondition,theGP’sfunctionisdecomposed,thedelegate—agentrelationshipbetweensponsorsandinvestmentconsultantsiscomparativelyfuzzy。
Andtheemployingrelationshipissubstitutedforthedelegate—agentrelationship,whilethedutyandrisk—bearingoftheemployingandthedelegate—agentaredifferent。

2.RisksofInvestors’Interest
Generally,theinvestorpaysmoreattentiontohighreturnoninvestment.IfGPisinthelack,andthecurrentGPcannotbequalifiedforfundmanager’sresponsibilities,investors'
profitswillnotgeteffectiveprotection.ThisismainlybecausethecurrentGPinthefieldofventurecapitalinvestmentlacksprofessionalabilities。
ComparedwiththePE’srisksininternationallymaturemarkets,operationalrisksfromtheGP’slackmaybegreater。
Therefore,thelackofGPfurtherincreasestheriskofPE’sinvestments,whichfinallymakestheinvestor'
