What is "carry" in venture capital? And, how do venture capitalists get paid?
Venture Capitalists, also known as "VC fund managers" and/or "Principals" receive "carry" or "carried interest" as their primary source of payment outside of management fees. The "carry" is the portion of the profits that VC's receive after the original principal is paid back to the Limited Partners, which can be anywhere from 15=30% of the profits from the returns.
