## Description

This MCP server provides precise tools for venture fund distribution modeling. It handles the full waterfall sequence, including return of capital, preferred returns, and GP catch-up provisions. Use `get_full_waterfall_distribution` to model the complete distribution flow, `check_hurdle_status` to verify if preferred returns are met, and `calculate_clawback_liability` to ensure GP distributions remain within agreed limits. It is designed for fund managers and LPs to model complex carried interest scenarios accurately.

## Tools

### calculate_clawback_liability
Determines if the GP owes money back to the LPs based on realized performance

### validate_gp_commitment_alignment
Validates if the GP's financial commitment is sufficient according to specific fund rules

### check_hurdle_status
Checks if the fund has met the minimum return required for the GP to begin receiving carry

### get_full_waterfall_distribution
Provides a complete breakdown of the entire distribution process from gross proceeds to final split

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
Calculate the waterfall distribution for $100M gross proceeds, $60M LP capital, 10% GP commitment, 20% carry, and an 8% hurdle rate with catch-up.
```

**Response:** 
```
The distribution includes $60M return of capital, $4.8M preferred return, and the subsequent GP catch-up and pro-rata split based on the $40M total profit.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Has the hurdle been met for a fund with $50M proceeds, $45M LP capital, and a 5% hurdle rate?
```

**Response:** 
```
No, the hurdle has not been met. The required preferred return is $2.25M, but only $5M in profit is available after capital return.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Check if the GP owes a clawback if they have received $5M in carry so far, but current proceeds and LP capital result in only $4M of entitled carry.
```

**Response:** 
```
Yes, a clawback is triggered. The GP must return $1,000,000 to the LPs.
```

## Frequently Asked Questions

**How do I calculate the full distribution breakdown?**
You can use the `get_full_waterfall_distribution` tool by providing gross proceeds, LP capital, GP commitment, carry percentage, and the hurdle rate.

**Can this tool detect if a GP owes money back to LPs?**
Yes, the `calculate_clawback_liability` tool determines if the GP's total carry distributed to date exceeds their entitlement based on current proceeds.

**How do I check if the preferred return has been satisfied?**
Use the `check_hurdle_status` tool to see if the fund has met the minimum return required for the GP to begin receiving carry.
