10-Year VC Returns Turn Negative
U.S. VC funds posted their first negative 10-year returns in a decade, according to new data from Thomson Reuters. As of March 31, VC funds generated a -1.5% pooled horizon return. The results exclude VC valuations from fourth quarter 1999 (which was the height of the dotcom bubble). Prior to this, 1999’s quarterly valuations were the major reason VC 10-year returns were positive, Thomson Reuters said.
