Required Rate Of Return - RRR
Categories: Accounting, Investing
See: Hurdle Rate. See: IRR.
It's "required." Like...if you don't attain at least a 20% IRR in this venture capital fund in which we're investing, you only get 10% carry, not the full 25% everyone else gets.
Required. As in: "Do it...or else."
