                                            vBVP was founded in 2004 and is primarily controlled by Michael van Biema.  vBVP provides 
investment advice with respect to hedge funds; other private funds; and managed accounts (each a 
“Sub-Manager  Portfolio”  or  collectively,  “Sub-Manager  Portfolios”)  managed  by  third-party 
investment managers (each a “Sub-Manager” or collectively, “Sub-Managers”).  
vBVP  generally  has  complete  discretion  and  authority  to  manage  and  direct  the  investment  of 
capital  for  the  pooled  investment  vehicles  for  which  it  serves  as  the  general  partner  and/or 
investment manager.  As of December 31, 2023, vBVP managed $31,880,706 on a discretionary 
basis on behalf of two pooled investment vehicles.  These vehicles are offered to qualified investors 
exclusively on a “private placement” basis.  Each of the pooled investment vehicles managed by 
vBVP as of December 31, 2023 is sometimes referred to herein individually as a “vBVP Fund” and 
collectively as the “vBVP Funds.”  
vBVP also provides investment advice to certain separately managed accounts.  These separately 
managed accounts are referred to herein as the “Separate Accounts” and, collectively with the vBVP 
Fund and other fund managed by vBVP (as described below), as the “Clients.”  Separate Accounts 
are typically subject to a minimum initial investment of $50,000,000, subject to the discretion of 
vBVP  to  accept  lesser  amounts.    As  of  December  31,  2023,  vBVP  managed  $580,798,033  in 
Separate Accounts. 
For the avoidance of doubt, throughout this Brochure,
                                        
                                        
                                             unless otherwise specified, references to Sub-
Managers should be understood to include SSDF Sub-Managers; references to Clients should be 
understood to include SSDF Clients; references to the Funds should be understood to include SSDF 
Funds; and references to Separate Accounts should be understood to include SSDF Client accounts. 
vBVP works with each prospective client or investor to establish an appropriate investment profile, 
and  to  understand  the  desired  exposure  of  each  prospective  client  or  investor.  The  Fund  has  a 
minimum  investment  amount  (typically  $1,000,000  for individuals  and  $5,000,000  for  all  other 
investors), subject to the discretion of the general partner to accept lesser amounts. SSDF Funds are 
subject to the minimum investment amounts, if any, specified in the governing documents of such 
funds. 
vBVP utilizes a specialized approach in selecting the Sub-Managers that it recommends to Clients.  
Specifically, vBVP identifies Sub-Managers that employ a fundamental value-oriented investment 
approach and that generally manage less than $200mm at the time of the initial investment.   vBVP 
may recommend that Clients invest in an existing pooled investment vehicle managed by the Sub-
Manager or that Clients establish a separately managed account with the Sub-Manager pursuant to 
a separate investment management agreement. 
Separate  account  Clients  may  impose  certain  investment  restrictions  within  their  respective 
investment management agreement at the inception of the relationship.
