Francisco Partners — funds, providers and filings

The US-reported view

The sections below draw on US regulatory filings — SEC Form ADV and Form D — and on US investors' own disclosures. They set out Francisco Partners's US-reported slice: the funds, service providers, domiciles and activity visible in US filings, not its worldwide business.

1. US-SEC private funds

This page reports $45.4bn of gross asset value across 49 private funds that Francisco Partners reports on SEC Form ADV, filings through 2024. It does not report firm-wide assets under management, a different measure on a different basis.

Worldwide, 43 registered fund vehicles are on file under its management companies, on the worldwide entity register (read 2026-10-05) — these are legal fund entities, not the share classes or products a manager markets.

2. Service providers

BDO audits 43 of the 49 Francisco Partners funds that name an auditor on Form ADV Schedule D, filings through 2024 — more than any other firm. Ultimus Leverpoint Private Fund Solutions administers 28 of the 35 that name an administrator, on the same filings. Relationships the filings attribute to Francisco Partners's own group are part of its structure, not third-party appointments, and are left out of these counts.

Across the funds that disclose each role on Schedule D — the count is funds naming that provider, of funds disclosing the role at all:

3. Fund domiciles

32 of Francisco Partners's 49 SEC-reported private funds are domiciled in Cayman Islands, its largest single domicile on Form ADV, filings through 2024. Delaware is next, and the bars below give the rest in order.

4. Fund filing activity

The 3 most recent of the 3 US private-fund filings for this manager's funds. The filings state no amount sold, as is common on Form D.

5. Fund performance

Every figure here is a disclosing pension plan's own, on that plan's own reporting date. Nothing is blended into a manager-level return, because no plan published one.

Per-fund net IRR, multiple and DPI as disclosed by the pension plans invested in the funds — the LPs' own numbers, on their own dates, not the manager's. One row per plan disclosure. Where two plans hold the same fund and report different numbers, both rows show, with their dates:

Young vintages sit in the J-curve: an early negative IRR mostly reflects fees drawn before value is realised, and is not a verdict on the fund.

6. Known LP investors, from their own disclosures

Oregon OPERF (10), CalSTRS (8), CalPERS (6), Washington WSIB (6) — the count is this manager's funds appearing in that plan's disclosure.

7. Management entities

Francisco Partners files Form ADV through 1 management entity; the largest is Francisco Partners Management, L.P., CRD 160272 of San Francisco, with 49 of the 49 funds on this page. Every figure above rolls those filers up into one business. The table below traces each of them back to the entity that filed it, so a number can be checked against its own record rather than taken on trust.
