InvestmentsFunds, valuations and what the contract says

IRR

Internal Rate of Return

Annual rate of return that accounts for the size and timing of cash flows.

Why it matters

Enables comparison of investments with different durations — doubling in two years is not the same as doubling in eight years.

What's missing without it

Without it, you see the size of profit, but not its speed.

When it is used

In fund reports for their investors.

How we use it

An internal rate of return of 25% means an average annual return on invested capital.

Fun fact

The metric can be easily inflated by early distributions: a fund that quickly returns part of the money will show a better return rate, even if it ultimately earns less.
