Venture returns are famously skewed, so funds and LPs often analyze fund performance by quintile: the top quintile of deals typically drives most of a fund’s total return, while the bottom quintiles return little or nothing.

Perguntas frequentes

Why do investors talk about quintiles instead of averages?

Averages hide the power-law shape of venture outcomes. A quintile breakdown shows how concentrated returns actually are in a small number of top-performing investments.

How is a quintile different from a percentile?

A quintile is a fixed 20 percent slice of ranked data, while a percentile marks any single point in that ranking, for example the 90th percentile.
