The correct answer is A.
Similar to buyout funds, venture capital funds typically have finite investment horizons (usually 3 to 5 years). Also, they both take control of the board of the companies in which they invest.
However, buyout funds almost always buy 100% of a company, whereas venture capital firms only acquire a minority stake – less than 50%. Therefore, option A is the least likely answer.
