Summary
of
Significant
Accounting
Policies
Basis
of
Presentation
The
accompanying
financial
statements
of
the
Fund
are
prepared
in
accordance
with
accounting
principles
generally
accepted
in
the
United
States
(“U.S.
GAAP”).
The
Fund
is
an
investment
company
and
follows
the
accounting
and
reporting
guidance
in
the
Financial
Accounting
Standards
Board
(“FASB”)
Accounting
Standards
Codification
(“ASC”)
Topic
946,
Financial
Services
-
Investment
Companies
(“ASC
946”).
The
Fund
maintains
its
financial
records
in
U.S.
dollars
and
follows
the
accrual
basis
of
accounting.
The
estimates
and
assumptions
underlying
these
financial
statements
are
based
on
information
available
as
of
September
30,
2024,
including
judgments
about
the
financial
market
and
economic
conditions
which
may
change
over
time.
Estimates
The
preparation
of
financial
statements
in
conformity
with
U.S.
GAAP
requires
management
to
make
estimates
and
assumptions
that
affect
the
reported
amounts
of
assets
and
liabilities
at
the
date
of
the
financial
statements
and
the
reported
amounts
of
revenues
and
expenses
during
the
reporting
period.
Actual
results
could
differ
from
those
estimates.
Valuation
Oversight
Pursuant
to
SEC
Rule
2a-5
under
the
1940
Act,
the
Board
has
approved
the
Adviser
as
the
Fund’s
Valuation
Designee
(“Valuation
Designee”),
to
provide
administration
and
oversight
of
the
Fund’s
valuation
policies
and
procedures.
The
Fund
values
its
investments
in
accordance
with
such
procedures.
Generally,
portfolio
securities
and
other
assets
for
which
market
quotations
are
readily
available
are
valued
at
market
value,
which
is
ordinarily
determined
on
the
basis
of
official
closing
prices
or
the
last
reported
sales
prices.
If
market
quotations
are
not
readily
available
or
are
deemed
unreliable,
the
Fund
will
use
the
fair
value
of
the
securities
or
other
assets
Fundrise
Growth
Tech
Fund,
LLC
Notes
to
Financial
Statements

as
determined
by
the
Adviser
in
good
faith,
taking
into
consideration
all
available
information
and
other
factors
that
the
Adviser
deems
pertinent,
in
each
case
subject
to
the
overall
supervision
and
responsibility
of
the
Board.
In
calculating
the
Fund’s
net
asset
value
(“NAV”),
the
Adviser,
subject
to
the
oversight
of
the
Board,
uses
various
valuation
methodologies.
To
the
extent
practicable,
the
Adviser
generally
endeavors
to
maximize
the
use
of
observable
inputs
and
minimize
the
use
of
unobservable
inputs
by
requiring
that
the
most
observable
inputs
are
to
be
used
when
available.
The
availability
of
valuation
techniques
and
observable
inputs
can
vary
from
investment
to
investment
and
are
affected
by
a
wide
variety
of
factors.
When
valuation
is
based
on
models
or
inputs
that
are
less
observable
or
unobservable
in
the
market,
the
determination
of
fair
value
requires
more
judgment,
and
may
involve
alternative
methods
to
obtain
fair
values
where
market
prices
or
market-based
valuations
are
not
readily
available.
As
a
result,
the
Adviser
may
exercise
a
higher
degree
of
judgment
in
determining
fair
value
for
certain
securities
or
other
assets.
Fair
Value
Measurement
The
following
is
a
current
summary
of
certain
methods
generally
used
to
value
investments
of
the
Fund
under
the
Fund’s
valuation
procedures:
The
Fund
applies
FASB
ASC
Topic
820,
Fair
Value
Measurement,
as
amended,
which
establishes
a
framework
for
measuring
fair
value
in
accordance
with
U.S.
GAAP
and
required
disclosures
of
fair
value
measurement.
U.S.
GAAP
defines
the
fair
value
as
the
price
that
the
Fund
would
receive
to
sell
an
asset
or
pay
to
transfer
a
liability
in
an
orderly
transaction
between
market
participants
at
the
measurement
date.
The
Fund
determines
the
fair
value
of
certain
investments
in
accordance
with
the
fair
value
hierarchy
that
requires
an
entity
to
maximize
the
use
of
observable
inputs.
The
fair
value
hierarchy
includes
the
following
three
levels
based
on
the
objectivity
of
the
inputs,
which
were
used
for
categorizing
the
assets
or
liabilities
for
which
fair
value
is
being
measured
and
reported:
Level
1
–
Quoted
market
prices
in
active
markets
for
identical
assets
or
liabilities.
Level
2
–
Significant
other
observable
inputs
(e.g.,
quoted
prices
for
similar
items
in
active
markets,
quoted
prices
for
identical
or
similar
items
in
markets
that
are
not
active,
inputs
other
than
quoted
prices
that
are
observable
such
as
interest
rate
and
yield
curves,
and
market-corroborated
inputs).
Level
3
–
Valuation
generated
from
model-based
techniques
that
use
inputs
that
are
significant
and
unobservable
in
the
market.
These
unobservable
assumptions
reflect
estimates
of
inputs
that
market
participants
would
use
in
pricing
the
asset
or
liability.
Valuation
techniques
may
include
use
of
discounted
cash
flow
methodologies
or
similar
techniques,
which
incorporate
management’s
own
estimates
of
assumptions
that
market
participants
would
use
in
pricing
the
instrument
or
other
valuation
assumptions
that
require
significant
management
judgment
or
estimation.
Investments
in
registered
investment
companies,
including
money
market
funds,
are
valued
at
the
NAV
as
of
the
close
of
each
business
day.
To
the
extent
these
securities
are
actively
traded,
they
are
categorized
in
Level
1
of
the
fair
value
hierarchy.
Fixed
income
securities
are
valued
by
an
outside
pricing
service
overseen
by
the
Valuation
Designee.
The
pricing
service
employs
a
pricing
model
that
takes
into
account,
among
other
things,
bids,
yield
spreads
and/or
other
market
data
and
specific
security
characteristics.
In
the
event
prices
or
quotations
are
not
readily
available
or
that
the
application
of
these
valuation
methods
results
in
a
price
for
an
investment
that
is
deemed
to
be
not
representative
of
the
fair
value
of
such
investment,
fair
value
will
be
determined
in
good
faith
by
the
Valuation
Designee,
in
accordance
with
the
valuation
policy
and
procedures
approved
by
the
Board.
To
the
extent
these
securities
are
actively
traded,
they
are
categorized
in
Level
2
of
the
fair
value
hierarchy.
The
majority
of
the
Fund’s
investments
have
no
readily
available
market
quotations
and,
as
such,
are
valued
at
fair
value
in
good
faith.
There
is
no
single
standard
for
determining
the
fair
value
of
a
security.
Rather,
fair
value
calculations
will
involve
significant
professional
judgment
in
the
application
of
both
observable
and
unobservable
attributes.
For
mid-to-late
growth
Portfolio
Companies,
traditional
valuation
methods
(e.g.,
discounted
cash
flow)
are
often
a
less
reliable
tool
for
valuing
investments
in
accordance
with
ASC
820.
As
such,
until
the
Portfolio
Companies
grow
to
a
point
where
traditional
valuation
methods
apply,
the
Fund
may
deem
it
more
appropriate
to
utilize
other
valuation
methodologies.
Late-stage
private
companies
or
“pre-IPO
companies”
Fundrise
Growth
Tech
Fund,

traditionally
raise
capital
from
investors
in
organized
funding
rounds.
During
such
funding
rounds,
a
pre-IPO
company
will
seek
a
lead
investor
who
will,
to
their
best
effort,
define
a
valuation
of
the
company.
Therefore,
the
valuation
of
the
Fund’s
Portfolio
Companies
may
be
adjusted
when
a
new
valuation
is
set
by
the
lead
investor
in
the
next
funding
round.
As
such,
the
Fund
may
use
the
market
approach
to
estimate
the
fair
value
of
its
Portfolio
Companies
by
adjusting
the
valuation
of
its
Portfolio
Companies
with
each
new
funding
round.
However,
while
the
valuation
as
of
the
latest
funding
round
is
a
prominent
factor
in
the
Fund’s
valuation
process,
it
is
not
the
only
factor
that
the
Fund
considers
when
valuing
its
portfolio
investments.
The
Fund
may
establish
certain
thresholds
or
triggers
that
intend
to
capture
fundamental
changes
in
the
value
of
the
Portfolio
Company
that
would
affect
the
anticipated
return
on
the
Fund’s
investment.
Examples
of
certain
thresholds
or
triggers
may
include,
an
unexpected
business
or
technology
breakthrough,
faster
than
anticipated
revenue
growth,
a
fundamental
failure
of
the
technology,
the
loss
of
a
key
customer,
or
the
success
of
a
competitor
in
the
same
industry.
Additionally,
the
Adviser
may
consider
several
additional
factors
(if
present),
including
but
not
limited
to
the
implied
valuation
of
the
asset
as
reflected
by
stock
purchase
contracts
reported
in
private
markets,
fundamental
analytical
data
relating
to
the
investment
in
the
security,
the
nature
and
duration
of
any
restriction
on
the
disposition
of
the
security,
the
cost
of
the
security
at
the
date
of
purchase,
or
the
liquidity
of
the
market
for
the
security.
The
Adviser
may
also
consider
periodic
financial
statements
(audited
and
unaudited)
or
other
information
provided
by
the
Portfolio
Companies
to
investors
or
prospective
investors,
to
the
extent
that
it
is
available.
The
Fund
invests
in
Portfolio
Companies
by
purchasing
securities
directly
from
such
Portfolio
Companies,
through
simple
agreements
for
future
equity
(“SAFEs”),
or
through
special
purpose
vehicles
(“SPV”).
SAFEs
represent
a
contractual
right
to
future
equity
of
a
company,
in
exchange
for
which
the
holder
of
the
SAFE
contributes
capital
to
the
company.
SAFEs
enable
investors
to
convert
their
investment
to
equity
upon
the
occurrence
of
triggering
events
set
forth
in
the
applicable
SAFE.
For
investments
in
companies
that
are
not
considered
“pre-IPO
companies”,
valuation
methods
utilized
may
include,
but
are
not
limited
to
the
following:
sales
comparison
approach;
discounted
cash
flow
method;
hypothetical
sales
method;
and
appraisals
received
from
one
or
more
pricing
services.
In
addition,
the
Fund
may
utilize:
an
analysis
of
financial
ratios
and
valuation
metrics
of
the
portfolio
companies
that
issued
private
equity
securities
to
peer
companies
that
are
public;
an
analysis
of
the
Portfolio
Companies’
most
recent
financial
statements
and
forecasts;
an
analysis
of
the
markets
in
which
the
Portfolio
Company
does
business;
and
other
relevant
factors.
Portfolio
Funds
and
certain
Portfolio
Companies
are
generally
valued
based
on
the
latest
NAV
reported
by
the
Portfolio
Fund
or
Portfolio
Company's
portfolio
manager
(“Portfolio
Manager”)
as
a
practical
expedient,
where
such
valuation
methodologies
employed
by
the
Portfolio
Funds
and
certain
Portfolio
Companies
reflects
fair
value
pricing
and
the
effects
of
using
fair
value
pricing.
New
purchases
of
Portfolio
Funds
and
certain
Portfolio
Companies
may
be
valued
at
acquisition
cost
initially
until
a
NAV
is
provided
by
the
Portfolio
Manager.
If
the
Valuation
Committee
concludes
in
good
faith
that
the
latest
NAV
reported
by
a
Portfolio
Manager
does
not
represent
fair
value
(e.g.,
there
is
more
current
information
regarding
a
portfolio
asset
which
significantly
changes
its
fair
value),
the
Valuation
Committee
will
make
a
corresponding
adjustment
to
reflect
the
current
fair
value
of
such
asset
within
such
Portfolio
Fund
or
Company.
Due
to
the
inherent
uncertainty
of
determining
the
fair
value
of
investments
that
do
not
have
a
readily
available
market
value,
the
fair
value
of
the
Fund’s
investments
may
differ
significantly
from
the
values
that
would
have
been
used
had
a
readily
available
market
value
existed
for
such
investments,
and
the
differences
could
be
material.

Restricted
Investments
The

may
purchase
securities
for
which
there
is
a
limited
trading
market
or
which
are
subject
to
restrictions
on
resale
to
the
public.
Restricted
securities
and
securities
for
which
there
is
a
limited
trading
market
may
be
significantly
more
difficult
to
value
due
to
the
unavailability
of
reliable
market
quotations
for
such
securities,
and
investment
in
such
securities
may
have
an
adverse
impact
on
NAV.
The
Fund
may
purchase
Rule
144A
securities
for
which
there
may
be
a
secondary
market
of
qualified
institutional
buyers
as
contemplated
by
Rule
144A
under
the
Securities
Act.
Rule
144A
provides
an
exemption
from
the
registration
requirements
of
the
Securities
Act
for
the
resale
of
certain
restricted
securities
to
qualified
institutional
buyers.
The
following
are
the
restricted
investments
held
by
the
Fund
as
of
September
30,
2024
(amounts
in
thousands)
:
Income
Taxes
As
a
limited
liability
company,
the
Fund
has
elected
to
be
taxed
as
a
C
corporation.
The
Fund
intends
to
elect
to
be
taxed
as
a
RIC
under
the
Code,
in
a
future
taxable
year.
To
qualify
as
a
RIC,
the
Fund
must
meet
certain
organizational
and
operational
requirements,
including
a
requirement
to
distribute
at
least
90%
of
the
Fund’s
annual
investment
company
taxable
income
to
the
shareholders
of
the
Fund
(“Shareholders”)
(which
is
computed
without
regard
to
the
dividends
paid
deduction
and
generally
equals
the
Fund’s
ordinary
income
plus
the
excess
of
its
net
short-term
capital
gains
over
its
net
long-term
capital
losses,
minus
deductible
expenses).
Once
the
Fund
qualifies
as
a
RIC,
it
generally
will
not
be
subject
to
U.S.
federal
income
tax
to
the
extent
it
distributes
qualifying
dividends
to
its
Shareholders.
Even
if
the
Fund
qualifies
for
taxation
as
a
RIC,
it
may
be
subject
to
certain
state
and
local
taxes
on
its
income
and
property,
and
federal
income
and
excise
taxes
on
its
undistributed
income.
The
tax
period
for
the
taxable
year
ending
March
31,
2024
and
all
tax
periods
following
remain
open
to
examination
by
the
major
taxing
authorities
in
all
jurisdictions
where
we
are
subject
to
taxation.
For
the
open
tax
periods,
the
Fund
has
no
uncertain
tax
positions
that
would
require
recognition
in
the
financial
statements.
Income
tax
and
related
interest
and
penalties
would
be
recognized
by
the
Fund
as
tax
expense
in
the
Statement
of
Operations
if
the
tax
positions
were
deemed
to
not
meet
the
more-likely-than-not
threshold.
As
of
September
30,
2024,
the
Fund
did
not
record
any
cumulative
unrecognized
tax
benefits
on
the
Statement
of
Assets
and
Liabilities.

As
a
result
of
being
taxed
as
a
C
corporation,
we
are
subject
to
federal
and
applicable
state
corporate
income
taxes
on
our
taxable
ordinary
income
and
capital
gains.
In
addition,
while
we
are
subject
to
taxation
as
a
C
corporation,
we
will
not
be
required
to
fulfill
the
annual
distribution,
investment
diversification
or
gross
income
composition
requirements
applicable
to
RICs.
The
Fund
accounts
for
income
taxes
under
the
asset
and
liability
method,
which
requires
the
recognition
of
deferred
tax
assets
and
liabilities
for
the
expected
future
tax
consequences
of
events
that
have
been
included
in
the
financial
statements.
Under
this
method,
deferred
tax
assets
and
liabilities
are
recognized
as
temporary
differences
between
the
financial
statement
carrying
amounts
of
existing
assets
and
liabilities
and
their
respective
tax
bases,
as
well
as
net
operating
loss
and
tax
credit
carryforwards.
Deferred
tax
assets
and
liabilities
are
measured
using
enacted
tax
rates
in
effect
for
the
year
in
which
the
differences
are
expected
to
reverse.
The
effect
of
a
change
in
tax
rates
on
deferred
tax
assets
and
liabilities
is
recognized
in
income
in
the
period
that
includes
the
enactment
date.
Issuance
of
Shares
The
Fund
offers
its
shares
on
a
continuous
basis
through
the
Fundrise
Platform,
an
investment
platform
available
both
online
at
www.fundrise.com
and
through
various
mobile
applications
owned
and
operated
by
the
Sponsor.
The
price
a
Shareholder
pays
for
shares
is
based
on
the
Fund’s
NAV.
The
NAV
of
the
Fund’s
shares
is
calculated
daily
on
each
day
that
the
New
York
Stock
Exchange
is
open
for
business.
Cash
received
for
investor
subscriptions
is
recorded
as
Settling
Subscriptions
in
the
Statement
of
Assets
and
Liabilities
until
settlement
occurs
and
shares
are
issued.
Distributions
To
Shareholders
The
Fund
has
made,
and
intends
to
continue
to
make,
distributions
necessary
to
qualify
to
be
taxed
as
a
RIC
and,
once
qualified,
maintain
its
qualification
for
taxation
as
a
RIC.
The
Fund
expects
that
it
will
declare
and
pay
distributions
on
a
quarterly
basis,
or
more
or
less
frequently
as
determined
by
the
Board,
in
arrears.
Notwithstanding
the
foregoing,
it
is
likely
that
many
of
the
Portfolio
Companies
in
whose
securities
the
Fund
invests
will
not
pay
any
dividends,
and
this,
together
with
the
Fund’s
expenses,
means
that
there
can
be
no
assurance
the
Fund
will
have
substantial
income
or
pay
dividends.
The
Board
may
authorize
distributions
in
shares
or
in
excess
of
those
required
for
the
Fund
to
qualify
or
maintain
RIC
tax
status
depending
on
the
Fund’s
financial
condition
and
such
other
factors
as
the
Board
may
deem
relevant.
The
distribution
rate
may
be
modified
by
the
Board
from
time
to
time.
The
Board
reserves
the
right
to
change
or
suspend
the
distribution
policy
from
time
to
time.
Distributions
to
shareholders
of
the
Fund
are
recorded
on
the
ex-dividend
date.
Until
such
time
as
the
Fund
meets
the
requirements
to
qualify
as
a
RIC,
or
if
the
Fund
fails
to
qualify
as
a
RIC
in
any
taxable
year,
it
will
be
taxed
as
an
ordinary
corporation
on
its
taxable
income
(even
if
such
income
is
distributed
to
its
shareholders)
and
all
distributions
out
of
earnings
and
profits
will
generally
be
taxed
to
certain
noncorporate
U.S.
shareholders
(including
individuals)
as
“qualified
dividend
income”
eligible
for
reduced
maximum
tax
rates.
Dividend
Reinvestment
The
Fund
operates
under
a
dividend
reinvestment
policy
administered
by
the
Adviser.
Pursuant
to
the
policy,
a
Shareholder’s
income
dividends,
capital
gains
or
other
distributions,
net
of
any
applicable
U.S.
withholding
tax,
can
be
reinvested
in
the
shares
of
the
Fund,
provided
that,
if
a
Shareholder
participates
in
an
investment
plan
offered
by
the
Adviser,
such
distributions
will
be
reinvested
in
accordance
with
such
investment
plan.
Unless
a
Shareholder
elects
to
“opt
in”
to
the
Fund’s
dividend
reinvestment
policy,
any
dividends
and
other
distributions
paid
to
the
Shareholder
by
the
Fund
will
not
be
reinvested
in
additional
shares
of
the
Fund
under
the
policy.
When
the
Fund
declares
a
distribution
payable
in
cash,
the
Shareholders
enrolled
in
the
dividend
reinvestment
plan
will
receive
an
equivalent
amount
in
shares
from
the
Fund
either
newly
issued
or
repurchased
from
Shareholders
by
the
Fund
or
according
to
their
investment
plan,
if
applicable.
The
number
of
shares
to
be
received
when
distributions
are
reinvested
will
be
determined
by
dividing
the
amount
of
the
distribution
(or
the
percentage
of
the
distribution
allocable
to
the
Fund
under
the
terms
of
the
investment
plan,
if
applicable)
by
the
Fund’s
NAV
per
share
when
the
distribution
is
paid.
Shareholders
who
do
not
participate
in
the
Fund’s
dividend
reinvestment
policy
will
receive
all
dividends
in
cash.

Investment
Income
and
Securities
Transactions
Securities
transactions
are
accounted
for
on
the
date
the
securities
are
purchased
or
sold
(trade
date).
Realized
gains
and
losses
on
sales
of
investments
are
determined
on
a
specific
identification
basis.
Dividend
income
and
distributions
are
reported
on
the
ex-
dividend
date,
and
interest
income
is
recorded
on
an
accrual
basis.
Amortization
of
premiums
and
accretion
of
discounts
on
fixed
income
securities
is
calculated
using
the
effective
interest
method,
or
straight-line
method
when
appropriate,
over
the
holding
period
of
the
investment
and
are
included
in
interest
income.
Distributions
received
from
investments
generally
are
comprised
of
ordinary
income
and/or
return
of
capital.
The
Fund
estimates
the
allocation
of
distributions
between
investment
income
and
return
of
capital
based
on
historical
information
or
regulatory
filings.
These
estimates
may
subsequently
be
revised
based
on
actual
allocations
received
from
investments
after
their
tax
reporting
periods
are
concluded,
as
the
actual
character
of
these
distributions
is
not
known
until
after
the
reporting
period
of
the
Fund.

Concentration
of
Risk
Investing
in
the
Fund
involves
risks,
including,
but
not
limited
to,
those
set
forth
below.
The
risks
described
below
are
not,
and
are
not
intended
to
be,
a
complete
enumeration
or
explanation
of
the
risks
involved
in
an
investment
in
the
Fund.
For
a
more
complete
discussion
of
the
risks
of
investing
in
the
Fund,
see
the
section
entitled
“Principal
Risks”
in
the
Fund’s
Prospectus
and
Statement
of
Additional
Information
filed
on
August
1,
2024,
and
the
Fund’s
other
filings
with
the
SEC.
Non-Listed
Closed-End
Fund;
Liquidity
Risk.
The
Fund
is
a
non-diversified,
closed-end
management
investment
company
designed
primarily
for
long-term
investors.
Closed-end
funds
differ
from
open-end
management
investment
companies
(commonly
known
as
mutual
funds)
because
investors
in
a
closed-end
fund
do
not
have
the
right
to
redeem
their
shares
on
a
daily
basis.
Unlike
many
closed-end
funds,
which
typically
list
their
shares
on
a
securities
exchange,
the
Fund
does
not
currently
intend
to
list
the
shares
for
trading
on
any
securities
exchange,
and
the
Fund
does
not
expect
any
secondary
market
to
develop
for
the
shares
in
the
foreseeable
future.
Therefore,
an
investment
in
the
Fund,
unlike
an
investment
in
a
typical
closed-end
fund,
is
not
a
liquid
investment.
The
Fund
is
not
intended
to
be
a
typical
traded
investment.
Shareholders
are
also
subject
to
transfer
restrictions
and
there
is
no
guarantee
that
they
will
be
able
to
sell
their
shares.
If
a
secondary
market
were
to
develop
for
the
shares
in
the
future,
and
a
Shareholder
is
able
to
sell
his
or
her
shares,
the
Shareholder
will
likely
receive
less
than
the
purchase
price
and
the
then-current
NAV
per
share.
The
Fund
from
time
to
time
may
offer
to
repurchase
shares
pursuant
to
written
tenders
by
the
Shareholders.
The
Fund
intends,
but
is
not
obligated,
to
conduct
quarterly
repurchase
offers
in
the
sole
discretion
of
the
Board;
provided,
that
it
is
not
expected
that
such
repurchase
offers
will
be
for
more
than
5%
of
the
Fund’s
net
assets.
Non-Diversification
Risk.
As
a
“non-diversified”
fund,
the
Fund
may
invest
more
than
5%
of
its
total
assets
in
the
securities
of
one
or
more
Portfolio
Companies
.
Therefore,
the
Fund
may
be
more
susceptible
than
a
diversified
fund
to
being
adversely
affected
by
events
impacting
a
single
borrower,
geographic
location,
security
or
investment
type.
Investment
and
Market
Risk.
An
investment
in
the
Fund
is
subject
to
investment
risk,
including
the
possible
loss
of
the
entire
amount
that
a
Shareholder
invests.
The
value
of
the
Fund’s
investments
may
move
up
or
down,
sometimes
rapidly
and
unpredictably.
At
any
point
in
time,
shares
may
be
worth
less
than
the
original
investment,
even
after
taking
into
account
the
reinvestment
of
Fund
dividends
and
distributions.
Market
risk
also
includes
the
risk
that
geopolitical
and
other
events,
such
as
war,
terrorism,
market
manipulation,
government
defaults,
government
shutdowns,
political
changes,
diplomatic
developments
or
the
imposition
of
sanctions
and
other
similar
measures,
public
health
emergencies
(such
as
the
spread
of
infectious
diseases,
pandemics
and
epidemics)
and
nature
disasters,
negatively
impact
the
securities
markets,
which
may
adversely
affect
the
Fund’s
business,
results
of
operations
and
financial
condition
and
the
Fund
to
lose
value.
Risks
of
Investing
in
Portfolio
Companies.
The
Portfolio
Companies
may
have
limited
financial
resources
and
may
be
unable
to
meet
their
obligations
with
their
existing
working
capital,
which
may
lead
to
equity
financings,
possibly
at
discounted
valuations,
in
which
the
Fund’s
holdings
could
be
substantially
diluted
if
the
Fund
does
not
or
cannot
participate,
bankruptcy
or
liquidation
and
consequently
the
reduction
or
loss
of
the
Fund’s
investment.
The
Adviser
expects
that
the
Fund’s
holdings
of
Portfolio
Companies
may
require
several
years
to
appreciate,
and
the
Adviser
can
offer
no
assurance
that
such
appreciation
will
occur.
Portfolio
Companies
typically
have
limited
operating
histories,
less
established
and
comprehensive
product
lines
and
smaller
market

18
shares
than
larger
businesses,
which
tend
to
render
them
more
vulnerable
to
competitors’
actions,
market
conditions
and
consumer
sentiment
in
respect
of
their
products
or
services,
as
well
as
general
economic
downturns.
Because
Portfolio
Companies
are
privately
owned,
there
is
usually
little
publicly
available
information
about
these
businesses.
Therefore,
the
Adviser
may
not
be
able
to
obtain
all
of
the
material
information
that
would
be
generally
available
for
public
company
investments,
including
financial
information,
current
performance
metrics,
operational
details
and
other
information
regarding
the
Portfolio
Companies
in
which
the
Fund
invests.
Portfolio
Companies
are
more
likely
to
depend
on
the
management
talents
and
efforts
of
a
small
group
of
persons.
Therefore,
the
death,
disability,
resignation
or
termination
of
one
or
more
of
these
persons
could
have
a
material
adverse
impact
on
a
Portfolio
Company
and,
in
turn,
on
the
Fund.
Portfolio
Companies
generally
have
less
predictable
operating
results,
may
from
time
to
time
be
parties
to
litigation,
may
be
engaged
in
rapidly
changing
businesses
with
products
subject
to
a
substantial
risk
of
obsolescence,
and
may
require
substantial
additional
capital
to
support
their
operations,
finance
expansion
or
maintain
their
competitive
position.
Portfolio
Companies
may
have
substantial
debt
loads.
In
such
cases,
the
Fund
would
typically
be
last
in
line
behind
any
creditors
in
a
bankruptcy
or
liquidation
and
would
likely
experience
a
complete
loss
on
its
investment.
Private
companies
are
generally
not
subject
to
SEC
reporting
requirements,
are
not
required
to
maintain
their
accounting
records
in
accordance
with
generally
accepted
accounting
principles,
and
are
not
required
to
maintain
effective
internal
controls
over
financial
reporting.
As
a
result,
timely
or
accurate
information
about
the
business,
financial
condition
and
results
of
operations
of
the
private
companies
in
which
the
Fund
invests
may
not
be
available.
Private
companies
in
which
the
Fund
may
invest
may
have
limited
financial
resources,
shorter
operating
histories,
more
asset
concentration
risk,
narrower
product
lines
and
smaller
market
shares
than
larger
businesses,
which
tend
to
render
such
private
companies
more
vulnerable
to
competitors’
actions
and
market
circumstances,
as
well
as
general
economic
downturns.
These
companies
generally
have
less
predictable
operating
results,
may
from
time
to
time
be
parties
to
litigation,
may
be
engaged
in
rapidly
changing
businesses
with
products
subject
to
a
substantial
risk
of
obsolescence,
and
may
require
substantial
additional
capital
to
support
their
operations,
finance
expansion
or
maintain
their
competitive
position.
These
companies
may
have
difficulty
accessing
the
capital
markets
to
meet
future
capital
needs,
which
may
limit
their
ability
to
grow
or
to
repay
their
outstanding
indebtedness
upon
maturity.
Technology
Sector
(Concentration)
Risk.
The
Fund’s
portfolio
will
be
concentrated
in
securities
issued
by
technology
companies
and
other
investments
that
provide
economic
exposure
to
technology
companies
and
as
such,
it
may
be
subject
to
more
risks
than
if
it
were
broadly
diversified
across
additional
sectors
and
industries
of
the
economy.
The
market
prices
of
technology
stocks
historically
have
exhibited
a
greater
degree
of
market
risk
and
price
volatility
than
other
types
of
investments.
These
stocks
may
fall
in
and
out
of
favor
with
investors
rapidly,
which
may
cause
sudden
selling
and
dramatically
lower
market
prices.
These
stocks
also
may
be
affected
adversely
by
changes
in
technology,
consumer
and
business
purchasing
patterns,
short
product
cycles,
falling
prices
and
profits,
government
regulation,
lack
of
standardization
or
compatibility
with
existing
technologies,
intense
competition,
aggressive
pricing,
dependence
on
copyright
and/or
patent
protection
and/or
obsolete
products
or
services.
Certain
technology
companies
may
face
special
risks
that
their
products
or
services
may
not
prove
to
be
commercially
successful.
Technology
companies
are
also
strongly
affected
by
worldwide
scientific
or
technological
developments,
and
as
a
result,
their
products
may
rapidly
become
obsolete.
In
addition,
because
of
rapid
technological
change,
the
average
selling
prices
of
products
and
some
services
provided
by
technology-related
sectors
have
historically
decreased
over
their
productive
lives.
As
a
result,
the
average
selling
prices
of
products
and
services
offered
by
the
companies
that
operate
in
technology-related
sectors
may
decrease
over
time,
which
could
adversely
affect
their
operating
results.
Technology
companies
are
also
often
subject
to
governmental
regulation
and
may,
therefore,
be
adversely
affected
by
governmental
policies.
In
addition,
a
rising
interest
rate
environment
tends
to
negatively
affect
technology
companies.
In
such
an
environment,
those
companies
with
high
market
valuations
may
appear
less
attractive
to
investors,
which
may
cause
sharp
decreases
in
the
companies’
market
prices.
Further,
technology
companies
seeking
to
finance
their
expansion
would
have
increased
borrowing
costs,
which
may
negatively
impact
their
earnings.
Technology
companies
are
often
smaller
companies
with
less
experienced
management
teams
and
they
may
be
subject
to
greater
risks
than
larger
companies,
such
as
limited
product
lines,
markets
and
financial
and
managerial
resources.
These
risks
may
be
heightened
for
technology
companies
in
foreign
markets.
The
foregoing
factors
may
negatively
impact
the
value
of
any
equity
securities
that
the
Fund
may
hold,
which
could
in
turn
materially
adversely
affect
the
Fund’s
business,
financial
condition
and
results
of
operations.
Valuation
Risk.
The
Fund
is
subject
to
valuation
risk,
which
is
the
risk
that
one
or
more
of
the
assets
in
which
the
Fund
invests
are
priced
incorrectly,
due
to
factors
such
as
incomplete
data,
market
instability
or
human
error.
If
the
Fund
ascribes
a
higher
value
to
assets
and
their
value
subsequently
drops
or
fails
to
rise
because
of
market
factors,
returns
on
the
Fund’s
investment
may
be
lower

than
expected
and
could
experience
losses.
The
Fund’s
portfolio
investments
are
generally
privately
traded
securities
(unless
one
of
the
Portfolio
Companies
goes
public
and
then
only
to
the
extent
the
Fund
has
not
yet
liquidated
its
securities
holdings
therein)
that
are
fair
valued
by
the
Adviser
in
accordance
with
the
Fund’s
valuation
procedures.
Valuations
of
the
Portfolio
Companies
are
inherently
uncertain
and
may
be
based
on
estimates,
and
the
Fund’s
determinations
of
fair
market
value
may
differ
materially
from
the
values
that
would
be
assessed
if
a
readily
available
market
for
these
securities
existed.
This
risk
is
particularly
exaggerated
for
mid-stage
growth
Portfolio
Companies,
given
their
limited
history
and
significant
change
in
cash
flow
generation
over
time.
Restricted
and
Illiquid
Securities
Risk.
Illiquid
securities
are
securities
that
are
not
readily
marketable.
These
securities
may
include
restricted
securities,
which
cannot
be
resold
to
the
public
without
an
effective
registration
statement
under
the
Securities
Act
of
1933,
as
amended
(the
“1933
Act”),
or,
if
they
are
unregistered,
may
be
sold
only
in
a
privately
negotiated
transaction
or
pursuant
to
an
exemption
from
registration.
Many
private
company
securities
may
be
restricted
securities
and/or
considered
illiquid.
The
Fund
may
not
be
able
to
readily
dispose
of
such
securities
at
prices
that
approximate
those
at
which
the
Fund
could
sell
such
securities
if
they
were
more
widely
traded
and,
as
a
result
of
such
illiquidity,
the
Fund
may
have
to
sell
other
investments
or
engage
in
borrowing
transactions
if
necessary
to
raise
cash
to
meet
its
obligations.
Limited
liquidity
can
also
affect
the
market
price
of
securities,
thereby
adversely
affecting
the
Fund’s
net
asset
value
and
ability
to
make
dividend
distributions.
The
financial
markets
in
general
have
in
recent
years
experienced
periods
of
extreme
secondary
market
supply
and
demand
imbalance,
resulting
in
a
loss
of
liquidity
during
which
market
prices
were
suddenly
and
substantially
below
traditional
measures
of
intrinsic
value.
During
such
periods,
some
securities
could
be
sold
only
at
arbitrary
prices
and
with
substantial
losses.
Periods
of
such
market
dislocation
may
occur
again
at
any
time.
Privately
issued
debt
securities
are
often
of
below
investment
grade
quality,
frequently
are
unrated
and
present
many
of
the
same
risks
as
investing
in
below
investment
grade
public
debt
securities.
Interest
Rate
Risk.
Changes
in
interest
rates,
including
changes
in
expected
interest
rates
or
“yield
curves,”
may
affect
the
Fund’s
business
in
a
number
of
ways.
Changes
in
the
general
level
of
interest
rates
can
affect
the
Fund’s
net
interest
income,
which
is
the
difference
between
the
interest
income
earned
on
the
Fund’s
interest-earning
assets
and
the
interest
expense
incurred
in
connection
with
its
interest-bearing
borrowings
and
hedges.
Common
Stock
Risk.
Common
stock
of
an
issuer
in
the
Fund’s
portfolio
may
be
volatile,
and
prices
may
fluctuate
based
on
changes
in
a
company’s
financial
condition
and
overall
market
and
economic
circumstances.
Although
common
stocks
have
historically
generated
higher
average
total
returns
than
fixed
income
securities
over
the
long-term,
common
stocks
also
have
experienced
significantly
more
volatility
in
those
returns
and,
in
certain
periods,
have
significantly
under-performed
relative
to
fixed
income
securities.
Tax
Risk.
Because
the
Fund
is
currently
treated
as
a
regular
corporation,
or
a
“C”
corporation,
for
U.S.
federal
income
tax
purposes,
the
Fund
will
incur
tax
expenses
and
will
be
subject
to
tax
at
regular
corporate
rates.
In
calculating
a
Fund’s
daily
NAV
in
accordance
with
generally
accepted
accounting
principles,
the
Fund
will
account
for
its
deferred
tax
liability
and/or
asset
balances.
The
Fund
will
accrue
a
deferred
income
tax
liability
balance,
at
the
currently
effective
statutory
U.S.
federal
income
tax
rate
(currently
21%)
plus
an
estimated
state
and
local
income
tax
rate,
for
its
future
tax
liability
associated
with
the
capital
appreciation
of
its
investments
and
the
distributions
received
by
the
Fund
on
equity
securities
considered
to
be
return
of
capital
and
for
any
net
operating
gains.
The
Fund’s
current
and
deferred
tax
liability,
if
any,
will
depend
upon
the
Fund’s
net
investment
gains
and
losses
and
realized
and
unrealized
gains
and
losses
on
investments
and
therefore
may
vary
greatly
from
year
to
year
depending
on
the
nature
of
the
Fund’s
investments,
the
performance
of
those
investments
and
general
market
conditions.
Any
deferred
tax
liability
balance
will
reduce
the
Fund’s
NAV.
Upon
the
Fund’s
sale
of
a
portfolio
security,
the
Fund
may
be
liable
for
previously
deferred
taxes.
If
the
Fund
is
required
to
sell
portfolio
securities
to
meet
redemption
requests,
the
Fund
may
recognize
gains
for
U.S.
federal,
state
and
local
income
tax
purposes,
which
will
result
in
corporate
income
taxes
imposed
on
the
Fund.
If
the
Fund
is
taxed
as
a
C
corporation
at
the
time
it
recognizes
gain
on
its
investments
(and
in
respect
of
aggregate
net
unrealized
built-in
gain
at
the
time
the
Fund
first
qualifies
as
a
RIC
to
the
extent
such
gain
is
recognized
within
five
years
after
so
qualifying),
the
Fund’s
returns
will
be
lower
than
they
would
have
been
if
the
Fund
had
elected
and
qualified
to
be
taxed
as
RIC
prior
to
such
gain
accruing
due
to
the
Fund’s
obligation
to
pay
a
corporate-level
tax
prior
to
its
distribution
of
income
to
shareholders.

Repurchase
Offers
The
Fund
from
time
to
time
may
offer
to
repurchase
shares
pursuant
to
written
tenders
by
the
Shareholders.
The
Fund
intends,
but
is
not
obligated,
to
conduct
quarterly
repurchase
offers
in
the
sole
discretion
of
the
Board;
provided,
that
it
is
not
expected
that
such
repurchase
offers
will
be
for
more
than
5%
of
the
Fund’s
net
assets.
Any
repurchases
of
shares
will
be
made
to
all
holders
of
shares,
at
such
times
and
on
such
terms
as
may
be
determined
by
the
Board
from
time
to
time
in
its
sole
discretion.
The
Board
will
determine
that
the
Fund
will
offer
to
repurchase
shares
pursuant
to
written
tenders
only
on
terms
that
the
Board
determines
to
be
fair
to
the
Fund
and
Shareholders.
The
value
of
shares
being
repurchased
will
be
determined
as
of
a
date,
determined
by
the
Board,
in
its
sole
discretion,
which
is
approximately
one
to
seven
days
after
the
expiration
of
the
repurchase
offer
(the
“Valuation
Date”),
and
any
such
repurchase
will
be
effective
as
of
the
Valuation
Date
(the
“Repurchase
Date”).
The
amount
due
to
any
Shareholder
whose
shares
are
repurchased
will
be
equal
to
the
value
of
the
Shareholder’s
shares
being
repurchased,
based
on
the
Fund’s
NAV
per
share
as
of
the
Valuation
Date.
The
Fund
may
not
condition
a
repurchase
offer
upon
the
tender
of
any
minimum
number
of
shares.
The
Fund
does
not
currently
charge
a
repurchase
fee,
and
it
does
not
currently
expect
to
impose
a
repurchase
fee.
However,
the
Fund
may
in
the
future
charge
a
repurchase
fee
of
up
to
2.00%,
subject
to
approval
of
the
Board.

of
certain
privately

Tax
Basis
Information
The
timing
and
characterization
of
certain
income,
capital
gains,
and
return
of
capital
distributions
are
determined
annually
in
accordance
with
federal
tax
regulations,
which
may
differ
from
GAAP.
As
a
result,
the
net
investment
income
(loss)
and
net
realized
gain
(loss)
on
investment
transactions
for
a
reporting
period
may
differ
significantly
from
distributions
during
such
period.
These
book/tax
differences
may
be
temporary
or
permanent
in
nature.
To
the
extent
these
differences
are
permanent,
they
are
charged
or
credited
to
paid-in
capital,
accumulated
net
investment
income/loss
or
accumulated
net

as
appropriate,
in
the

the
differences
arise.

As
of
September
30,
2024
,
the
unrealized
appreciation
and
depreciation
of
investments,
based
on
cost
for
federal
income
tax
purposes,
were
as
follows
(amounts
in
thousands)
:
The
Fund
does
not
yet
qualify
as
a
regulated
investment
company
pursuant
to
Subchapter
M
of
the
Internal
Revenue
Code,
therefore
it
is
taxed
as
a
corporation.
The
Fund
is
a
C
corporation
for
income
tax
purposes
and
is
therefore
obligated
to
pay
federal
and
state
income
tax
on
its
taxable
income.
Deferred
income
taxes
reflect
the
net
tax
effects
of
temporary
differences
between
the
carrying
amounts
of
assets
and
liabilities
for
financial
reporting
purposes
and
the
amounts
used
for
income
tax
purposes.
A
valuation
allowance
is
recognized
if,
based
on
the
weight
of
the
available
evidence,
it
is
more
likely
than
not
that
all
of
the
deferred
income
tax
asset
will
not
be
realized.
The

Approval
of
Investment
Management
Agreement
Section
15(c)
of
the
Investment
Company
Act
of
1940,
as
amended
(the
“1940
Act”),
requires
that
each
registered
fund’s
board
of
directors,
including
a
majority
of
those
directors
who
are
not
“interested
persons”
of
the
fund,
as
defined
in
the
1940
Act
(the
“Independent
Directors”),
initially
approve,
and
annually
review
and
consider
the
continuation
of,
the
fund’s
investment
advisory
agreement.
At
its
meeting
held
on
May
20,
2024
(the
“Meeting”),
the
Board
of
Directors
(the
“Board”)
of
the
Fund,
including
each
of
the
Independent
Directors,
unanimously
voted
to
approve
the
continuation
of
the
existing
investment
management
agreement
(the
“Agreement”)
between
Fundrise
Advisors
LLC
(the
“Adviser”)
and
the
Fund
for
an
additional
one-year
period.
In
connection
with
its
annual
consideration
of
the
Agreement
for
the
Fund,
the
Board,
through
its
independent
legal
counsel,
requested
and
received
extensive
materials
and
information
prepared
specifically
for
its
review
of
such
Agreement
by
the
Adviser
and
by
Broadridge
Financial
Solutions,
Inc.
(“Broadridge”),
an
independent
provider
of
investment
company
data.
The
report
from
Broadridge
compared
certain
fee
information
for
the
Fund
to
that
of
an
independently
selected
peer
group
of
similar
funds
(“Peer
Group”)
and
provided
performance
information
for
funds
in
the
Peer
Group
(the
“Broadridge
Report”).
Preceding
the
Meeting,
the
Board
also
reviewed
written
responses
from
the
Adviser
to
questions
posed
to
the
Adviser
by
counsel
on
behalf
of
the
Board
and
supporting
materials
relating
to
those
questions
and
responses.
In
addition,
the
Board
considered
such
additional
information
as
it
deemed
reasonably
necessary
to
evaluate
the
Agreement,
such
as
the
materials
and
presentations
by
Fund
officers
and
representatives
of
the
Adviser
received
at
the
Meeting
concerning
the
Agreement,
the
operation
of
the
Fund
and
the
Adviser.
The
Board
also
considered
information
received
at
prior
meetings
of
the
Board
and
its
committees,
to
the
extent
such
information
was
relevant
to
its
evaluation
of
the
Agreement.
In
determining
whether
to
approve
the
renewal
of
the
Agreement,
the
members
of
the
Board
reviewed
and
evaluated
information
and
factors
they
believed
to
be
relevant
and
appropriate
in
the
exercise
of
their
reasonable
business
judgment.
While
individual
members
of
the
Board
may
have
weighed
certain
factors
differently,
the
Board’s
determination
to
approve
renewal
of
the
Agreement
was
based
on
a
comprehensive
consideration
of
all
information
provided
to
the
Board
with
respect
to
the
approval
of
the
renewal
of
the
Agreement.
The
Board
was
also
furnished
with
an
analysis
of
its
fiduciary
obligations
in
connection
with
its
evaluation
of
the
Agreement
and,
throughout
the
evaluation
process,
the
Board
was
assisted
by
counsel
for
the
Independent
Directors.
In
connection
with
their
deliberations,
the
Independent
Directors
met
separately
in
executive
session,
without
the
presence
of
representatives
of
the
Adviser,
to
consider
the
relevant
materials.
A
more
detailed
summary
of
the
important,
but
not
necessarily
all,
factors
the
Board
considered
with
respect
to
its
approval
of
the
renewal
of
the
Agreement
is
provided
below.
Nature,
Extent
and
Quality
of
Services
The
Board
considered
information
regarding
the
nature,
extent
and
quality
of
services
provided
to
the
Fund
by
the
Adviser.
The
Board
considered,
among
other
things,
the
terms
of
the
Agreement
and
the
range
of
services
provided
by
the
Adviser.
The
Board
considered
the
Adviser’s
reputation,
organizational
structure,
resources
and
overall
financial
strength
and
ability
to
carry
out
its
obligations
under
the
Agreement.
The
Board
also
considered
the
Adviser’s
experience
managing
other
similar
pooled
investment
vehicles
that
employ
different
investment
strategies
from
those
of
the
Fund
(the
“Other
Investment
Vehicles”).
The
Board
considered
the
Adviser’s
professional
personnel
who
provide
services
to
the
Fund,
including
the
Adviser’s
ability
and
experience
in
attracting
and
retaining
qualified
personnel
to
service
the
Fund.
The
Board
also
considered
the
compliance
program
and
compliance
record
of
the
Adviser
and
the
Fund.
The
Board
noted
the
Adviser’s
support
of
the
Fund’s
compliance
control
structure,
including
the
resources
that
continue
to
be
devoted
by
the
Adviser
in
support
of
the
Fund’s
obligations
pursuant
to
Rule
38a-1
under
the
1940
Act
and
the
efforts
of
the
Adviser
and
its
affiliates
in
supporting
the
Fund
and
managing
various
operational
and
other
risks,
including,
but
not
limited
to,
cybersecurity
and
operational
risks.
The
Board
considered
the
day-to-day
portfolio
management
services
that
the
Adviser
provided
to
the
Fund.
In
this
regard,
the
Board
considered,
among
other
things,
the
Adviser’s
investment
philosophy
and
processes,
its
investment
research
capabilities
and
resources,
its
performance
record,
its
experience,
its
trading
operations
and
its
approach
to
managing
risk,
including
most
particularly
with
respect
to
investments
in
the
technology
sector.
The
Board
further
recognized
the
range
of
services
the
Adviser
provided
including,
but
not
limited
to,
structuring
terms
and
conditions
of
the
Fund’s
acquisitions
and
joint
ventures;
negotiating
and
executing
permissible
investments
and
other
transactions;
and
managing
liquidity
and
evaluating
potential
asset
dispositions.
The
Board
considered
the
experience
of
the
Fund’s
portfolio
managers,
the
number
of
Other
Investment
Vehicles
managed
by
the
portfolio
managers,
and
the
Adviser’s
method
for
compensating
the
portfolio
managers.

In
addition,
the
Board
considered
the
assumption
of
business,
entrepreneurial,
overall
managerial
and
other
risks
by
the
Adviser
in
connection
with
managing
the
Fund.
The
Board
noted
that
the
Fund
is
a
closed-end
tender
offer
fund
that
operates
in
accordance
with
the
framework
set
forth
in
Rule
13e-4
under
the
Securities
Exchange
Act
of
1934,
as
amended,
and
considered
the
special
attributes
of
the
Fund
relative
to
traditional
mutual
funds
and
the
benefits
that
are
realized
from
an
investment
in
the
Fund,
rather
than
a
traditional
mutual
fund.
The
Board
also
considered
the
resources
devoted
by
the
Adviser
and
its
affiliates
in
maintaining
an
infrastructure
necessary
to
support
the
on-going
operations
of
the
Fund,
including
its
periodic
tender
offer
structure.
After
consideration
of
the
foregoing
factors,
among
others,
the
Board
concluded
that
the
nature,
extent
and
quality
of
services
provided
by
the
Adviser,
taken
as
a
whole,
are
appropriate
and
consistent
with
the
terms
of
the
Agreement
Fund
Performance
The
Board
reviewed
information
provided
by
the
Adviser
regarding
the
Fund’s
investment
performance,
performance
of
comparable
funds
in
the
Fund’s
Peer
Group
as
well
as
information
from
the
Adviser
regarding
the
performance
of
the
Fund
relative
to
certain,
appropriate
benchmark
indices,
and
assessed
the
Fund’s
performance
on
the
basis
of
total
return.
The
Board
considered,
among
other
things,
the
Adviser’s
efforts
to
generate
competitive
performance
returns
over
time.
The
materials
provided
indicated
that
the
Fund
generated
a
return
of
1.52%
for
the
one-year
period
ended
March
31,
2024,
which
was
the
Fund’s
first
full
year
of
operations.
The
Board
noted
the
Adviser’s
representation
that
the
Fund’s
performance
during
the
year
compared
favorably
against
that
of
the
Cambridge
Associates
LLC
U.S.
Venture
Capital
Index,
which
returned
-2.53%
during
the
third
calendar
quarter
of
2023
and
-0.47%
in
the
second
calendar
quarter
of
2023,
which
was
the
most
recent
available
performance
data
for
the
index.
The
Board
also
compared
the
Fund’s
performance
against
the
performance
of
funds
in
its
Peer
Group.
Based
on
these
considerations
and
other
factors,
the
Board
concluded
that
it
was
satisfied
that
the
Adviser
has
the
capability
of
providing
satisfactory
investment
performance
for
the
Fund.
Management
Fees
and
Expenses
The
Board
reviewed
and
considered
the
management
fee
rate
paid
by
the
Fund
to
the
Adviser
under
the
Agreement
and
the
Fund’s
total
expense
ratio.
The
Board
received
and
reviewed
the
Broadridge
Report,
which
compared
the
Fund’s
management
fee
rate
and
total
expense
ratio
to
the
Fund’s
Peer
Group.
The
Board
considered
the
Fund’s
management
fees
and
total
expense
ratio
for
the
one-
year
period
ended
March
31,
2024,
as
compared
to
the
Fund’s
Peer
Group.
In
considering
the
reasonableness
of
the
Fund’s
management
fee
and
total
expense
ratio,
the
Board
observed
that,
according
to
the
information
provided
by
Broadridge,
the
Fund’s
contractual
management
fee
was
below
the
median
of
the
Fund’s
Peer
Group,
and
the
Fund’s
net
management
fee
and
net
expense
ratio
remained
within
a
reasonable
range
of
the
Peer
Group
average.
Based
on
its
consideration
of
the
factors
and
information
it
deemed
relevant,
the
Board
concluded
that
the
compensation
payable
to
the
Adviser
under
the
Agreement
was
reasonable
Profitability
The
Board
considered
information
from
the
Adviser
regarding
the
level
of
profits
realized
by
the
Adviser
and
relevant
affiliates
thereof
in
providing
investment
advisory,
administrative
and
other
services
to
the
Fund
and
to
the
Adviser’s
Other
Investment
Vehicles.
In
evaluating
the
profitability
to
the
Adviser
from
providing
services
to
the
Fund,
the
Board
considered
the
Adviser’s
representations
that
the
Adviser
was
currently
waiving
a
portion
of
its
advisory
fee
in
an
effort
to
keep
the
Fund
expenses
at
levels
believed
by
the
Adviser
to
be
attractive
to
investors
and
that
the
Adviser’s
profitability
with
respect
to
the
Fund
was
believed
to
be
fair
and
reasonable
based
on
the
nature
and
quality
of
the
services
to
be
provided
to
shareholders.
The
Board
concluded
that,
in
light
of
the
foregoing
factors
and
the
nature,
extent
and
quality
of
the
services
rendered,
the
profits
realized
by
the
Adviser
and
its
affiliates
from
the
Fund
are
not
excessive.
Economies
of
Scale
The
Board
considered
the
extent
to
which
economies
of
scale
may
be
realized
as
the
Fund’s
assets
continue
to
grow
and
whether
the
Fund’s
fee
structure
reflects
these
economies
of
scale
for
the
benefit
of
shareholders
of
the
Fund.
In
this
regard,
the
Board
Fundrise
Growth
Tech
Fund,
LLC
Additional
Information
(UNAUDITED)(continued)
September
30,
2024
26
considered
the
Fund’s
fee
structure,
asset
size,
and
net
expense
ratio,
recognizing
that
an
analysis
of
economies
of
scale
is
most
relevant
when
a
fund
has
achieved
a
substantial
size
and
has
growing
assets
and
that,
if
a
fund’s
assets
are
low,
stable
or
decreasing,
the
significance
of
economies
of
scale
may
be
reduced.
The
Board
observed
that
the
Fund
had
only
recently
completed
its
first
full
year
of
operations,
and
that
assets
remained
relatively
low.
The
Board
noted
the
Adviser’s
representation
that
the
Fund
could
potentially
benefit
from
economies
of
scale
at
higher
asset
levels
but
that,
in
light
of
the
Fund’s
current
asset
levels
and
because
the
Adviser
was
already
waiving
part
of
its
contractual
advisory
fee
in
order
to
keep
the
Fund’s
expenses
at
or
below
the
agreed-upon
expense
cap,
the
Adviser
was
not
proposing
breakpoints
in
the
advisory
fee
at
this
time.
The
Board
concluded
that
the
fee
schedule
for
the
Fund
reflects
an
appropriate
level
of
sharing
of
any
economies
of
scale.
The
Board
noted
that
it
will
have
the
opportunity
to
periodically
reexamine
whether
the
Fund
has
achieved
any
economies
of
scale
and
the
appropriateness
of
any
potential
future
management
fee
breakpoints
as
part
of
its
future
review
of
the
Agreement.
“Fall-Out”
Benefits
The
Board
received
and
considered
information
regarding
potential
“fall-out”
or
ancillary
benefits
that
the
Adviser
and
its
affiliates
receive
as
a
result
of
their
relationships
with
the
Fund.
The
Board
noted
that
ancillary
benefits
include,
among
others,
benefits
directly
attributable
to
other
relationships
with
the
Fund
and
benefits
potentially
derived
from
an
increase
in
the
Adviser’s
and
its
affiliates’
business
as
a
result
of
their
relationships
with
the
Fund.
The
Board
also
considered
information
about
certain
fees
that
the
Adviser
or
its
affiliates
may
be
entitled
to
receive
in
connection
with
the
technology
the
Adviser
intends
to
develop
for
use
by
the
Fund.
Based
on
its
consideration
of
the
factors
and
information
it
deemed
relevant,
the
Board
did
not
deem
any
ancillary
benefits
that
may
be
received
by
the
Adviser
and
its
affiliates
to
be
unreasonable.
Conclusion
The
Board
did
not
identify
any
single
factor
discussed
previously
as
all-important
or
controlling.
The
Board,
including
the
Independent
Directors,
concluded
that
the
terms
of
the
Agreement
were
reasonable
and
that
the
fees
payable
to
the
Adviser
under
the
Agreement
were
reasonable
in
light
of
the
services
provided
to
the
Fund.
Accordingly,
based
on
its
deliberations
and
its
evaluation
of
the
factors
described
above
and
other
information
it
believed
relevant,
the
Board
determined
that
the
continuation
of
the
Agreement
was
in
the
best
interests
of
the
Fund.
