First, it protects decision quality. The pressure to deploy capital on a schedule forces inferior allocation decisions. Second, it provides optionality during dislocations when others are constrained. Markets reward those who can act when capital is scarce, not when it is abundant. Third, it signals discipline to counterparties and co-investors.<\/p><p>The cost of holding liquidity is not the foregone return on deployment. The cost is measured against the quality of opportunities declined. If maintaining 15-20% cash allows us to pass on mediocre deals and capture three exceptional ones over a decade, the opportunity cost is negative.<\/p><p>Liquidity is not a timing tool. We do not attempt to predict when dislocations will occur. We simply maintain the capacity to respond when they do.<\/p><p>This approach requires conviction that market cycles are inevitable and that patience compounds. It also requires accepting the discomfort of watching markets rise while holding cash. Most investors cannot tolerate this discomfort.
