- Coatue's entries are COATUE CT 176 LP and COATUE CT 178 LLC.
On Aug. 17, 2026, Brightstar Capital Partners and Coatue each put two new private equity vehicles on the SEC's docket. The filings share a starting line: undisclosed offering amounts, zero capital sold, and designations as Private Equity Fund and Pooled Investment Fund.
Brightstar's pair is Brightstar Capital Partners Fund IV, L.P. and Fund IV-A, L.P. Both list the same related parties — Andrew Weinberg, Brightstar Associates IV, L.P., and Brightstar GP Investors IV, LLC — with no titles attached. The IV/IV-A split looks like a parallel fund structure: one team, two vehicles, possibly built for investors with different tax or regulatory situations. Which situation, the filings don't say. The only difference on the record is the suffix.
Coatue's entries are COATUE CT 176 LP and COATUE CT 178 LLC. Coatue Capital CI, LP is named on both. The legal wrappers differ — one limited partnership, one limited liability company. The numbered names suggest a continuing series, though the forms don't say how many CT vehicles preceded them.
The zero in the sold-to-date column is the detail that matters. These are Form Ds with nothing sold, the paperwork that records names, entities, and sponsor relationships. No targets, no fees, no strategy descriptions appear on the record. For allocators, the calendar matters more than the zeros: the vehicles exist now; the commitments don't.
