Exchange Fund - Detailed Structure

Detailed Structure

  • Fund holding requirements: The fund needs to have at least 20% of its assets in "non-publicly traded" securities or real-estate.
  • For public exchange funds, at least 7 years have to elapse between when an investor deposits their stock and when the basket of stocks is available for them to sell without realizing a step up in basis (paying taxes). However, this is not an issue with private stock exchange funds as the point is diversification, not tax deference.
  • Liquidity: Public funds are generally not marginable. Private funds increase a participants odds of liquidity.

Famous quotes containing the words detailed and/or structure:

    “Modern tourist guides have helped raised tourist expectations. And they have provided the natives—from Kaiser Wilhelm down to the villagers of Chichacestenango—with a detailed and itemized list of what is expected of them and when. These are the up-to- date scripts for actors on the tourists’ stage.”
    —Daniel J. Boorstin (b. 1914)

    “The question is still asked of women: “How do you propose to answer the need for child care?” That is an obvious attempt to structure conflict in the old terms. The questions are rather: “If we as a human community want children, how does the total society propose to provide for them?””
    —Jean Baker Miller (20th century)
