19,496 limited partners across 133 countries. Here is exactly how we collect, verify, and maintain that data — and what accuracy means in practice.
LPbacked aggregates LP data from multiple public and proprietary sources, cross-referenced against each other before any record reaches the database. No single source is complete — our advantage is the combination.
Form D filings for every private placement offering; Form ADV registrations for all SEC-registered investment advisers. Updated as filings are submitted.
Annual financial returns for university endowments, private foundations, and nonprofit investors — revealing AUM, investment income, and key officers. Via ProPublica Nonprofit Explorer.
Investment adviser and fund manager registrations across 133 countries — FCA (UK), BaFin (Germany), AMF (France), MAS (Singapore), and others.
Sovereign wealth fund reports, pension fund annual reports, endowment financial statements, and public filings that report investment assets and allocation strategies.
Official LP websites, team pages, and press releases for personnel changes, fund commitments, and investment mandate updates.
In-house researchers identify and verify LP profiles not captured by automated sources — particularly smaller family offices and regional investors.
Sourcing LP records is the easy part. Keeping them accurate is the real work. Investment team composition changes constantly — people leave funds, join new firms, get promoted, retire. We run three verification layers:
We continuously send verification pings to detect bouncing addresses. When an email starts returning hard bounces, we flag the record for manual review within 48 hours.
Every LP record in the database is reverified at minimum every 90 days — cross-checking current employment, title, and contact information against multiple sources. High-priority records (AUM > $1B) are checked monthly.
We monitor SEC filings, press releases, and LinkedIn for personnel change signals. When a key investment professional leaves a firm, we flag and update their record within 30 days.
In addition to LP contact profiles, LPbacked indexes three categories of public filing data — each cross-referenced with LP profiles to provide context:
SEC private placement filings from VC, PE, and hedge funds — sourced directly from SEC EDGAR.
Browse data →IRS annual returns for endowments and foundations — sourced via ProPublica Nonprofit Explorer.
Browse data →SEC registrations for investment advisers — AUM, client types, strategies, sourced from EDGAR.
Browse data →LPbacked only includes business contact information for investment professionals in their professional capacity. All contact information is sourced from publicly available professional information — the same information available on a firm's own website, SEC filings, or professional directories.
We comply with GDPR, CCPA, and applicable privacy regulations. Investment professionals can request removal of their contact information by emailing privacy@lpbacked.com. Users of LPbacked agree to use data only for lawful business development purposes, not for mass marketing or data resale.
