The data from the annual Deloitte / NVCA Global Survey of Venture Capital Firms show that U.S. VC fund managers, by 61% to 39%, do not expect to deploy their capital outside of the country. They intend to invest it in the U.S. But the data also show that a majority of Limited Partners (56%) who invest in U.S. VC funds don’t want the fund managers to invest in the U.S. These two data points indicate a potential mismatch of expectations.
Every year, Deloitte LLP and the National Venture Capital Association (NVCA) conduct a global survey of venture capital firms. Respondents came from these countries: United Stated, United Kingdom, Canada, Germany, France, China, India, Brazil and Israel. The largest concentration of respondents have $100 - $499 million under management.
