On every topic you have ever posted, it has been consistently pointed out that you are a retard that speaks out of his ass just for the sake of attention. You don't know what you are talking about. Period. It's not even an insult at this point, it's a fact. By pointing this out, hopefully more of the newer members start to recognize you for what you are, an entertaining joke.
I have stated enough in this thread. You have no idea how institutions operate and how they decide and give allocations. It is actually done by submitting your marketing materials to their coverage staff, who then submit to their Managing Directors after doing an initial call if they are interested. A lot of this is actually done by cold leads, phone calls and emails. Marketers are generally employed/contracted to do this. At that point it's simply a matter of substance, the background of the manager, performance numbers, the strategy, etc. The biggest barrier toward getting access to institutions is AUM and years of documented performance. Along with that are the costs behind proper counsel, administrator & auditors.
No matter your connections, there is a lot of red tape at institutions with constantly tightening regulations. Obviously there is a degree of variation, especially depending on the size of the institution.
Connections & hookups & knowing people actually matter a lot more with individual investors, venture funds, PE firms and investor groups.
