Did some DD, if under Wilshire.com the below is what I found. If this is the correct partner then the below describes the objectives and services of Wilshire. This appears to fit Keith's profile and the possible path that company like Hemi Energy would pursue for a potential set up if any buy out down the road was to occur.
"Wilshire Associates is a leading global investment technology, investment consulting and investment management firm with four distinct business units including Wilshire Analytics, Wilshire Consulting, Wilshire Funds Management and Wilshire Private Markets. With eight offices on four continents, Wilshire Associates and its affiliates are dedicated to providing clients with the highest quality counsel, solutions and services.
Wilshire's investment objective is to select top quartile partnership investments in the most attractive private market sectors. To achieve this, Wilshire's investment process uses top down capital markets research, a forward calendar to identify top tier general partners, rigorous due diligence of possible partnerships, and active portfolio monitoring."
Note the last sentence of the last paragraph.
