Live dataset · Data updated Oct 2026
Among the 220 whose check size is confirmed from a published source, the median range is $5M to $50M. Another 583 active funds have a band that is modeled or has no published source; none of them counts toward a median.
| Fund type | Funds with a range | Confirmed (n) | Median confirmed range |
|---|---|---|---|
| DIRECT LENDER | 459 | 125 | $5M–$50M |
| SPECIALIST | 194 | 47 | $5M–$40M |
| OTHER | 136 | 30 | $10M–$75M |
| GENERALIST | 51 | 10 | $5M–$100M |
Medians use only ranges confirmed from a published source and need at least 5; an en dash (–) means fewer than 5 are confirmed. Fund types with fewer than 25 funds showing a range are omitted.
Among the 220 funds whose check size is confirmed from a published source, the median range is $5M to $50M. In the Agentas database, 663 active funds have a check-size band on file and 140 carry a modeled ~ (est.) band; modeled bands are left out of every median.
