Document background
The Investment Partnership Agreement is a foundational document used to establish and govern investment partnerships under Dutch law. It is primarily utilized when two or more parties wish to form a structured investment vehicle, typically as a limited partnership (Commanditaire Vennootschap or CV) in the Netherlands. The agreement comprehensively addresses critical aspects including capital commitments, investment strategy, governance structure, profit distribution, and partner rights and obligations. It must comply with Dutch Civil Code requirements, financial regulations (including Wet op het financieel toezicht), and relevant EU directives. This document is particularly important for private equity, venture capital, and other alternative investment structures, providing the legal framework for managing significant capital commitments while protecting both general and limited partners' interests.
