The fund offered liquidity, but requests were larger than the amount available, so investors may receive only part of what they asked to redeem.
Proration
Partial fulfillment when investor requests exceed the fund's repurchase capacity.
The investor may receive only part of the requested cash and may need to resubmit later.
Fill rates and proration events are the plain-English bridge between documents and client outcomes.
Use this when reviewing fill rate, proration factor, requested / accepted as mechanic fields. Product surfaces apply the same vocabulary to real fund facts.
- Calculate accepted amount divided by requested amount.
- Check whether the document reports a proration factor directly.
- Look for resubmission rules or future-window treatment.
Calculate accepted amount divided by requested amount.

Leave with language and diligence prompts.
If requests exceed capacity, are unfilled amounts carried forward automatically, resubmitted by the investor, or treated as a new request?
Review proration alongside fill rate, cap size, request trend, and any board discretion before describing the wrapper as liquid.

Hypothetical liquidity window with oversubscription
The model window shows how a stated repurchase program can deliver partial liquidity when requests exceed capacity.

Model tender window with partial exit risk
The model tender cycle separates a scheduled exit process from daily liquidity and shows where proration language belongs.
