to our prior comment 2 and we reissue that comment in part. We
                                                        note your disclosure
that some funds have investments in companies with significant
                                                        Chinese operations.
Please clarify, to the extent practicable, the industries in China your

   2.                                                   We note your disclosure
in the second paragraph that certain of your portfolio companies

         in China implement variable interest entity ("VIE") structures.
Explain whether the VIE
         structure is used to replicate foreign investment in Chinese-based
companies where
         Chinese law prohibits direct foreign investment in the operating
companies and clarify
         that your funds may not directly hold equity interests in the Chinese
operating company.
         Your disclosure should also acknowledge that Chinese regulatory
authorities could
         disallow this structure, which could result in a decline in value of a
portfolio security
         investment.
Regulation under the Investment Company Act, page 215

3.       With respect to each TPG entity that is described as a majority-owned
subsidiary in your
         November 5, 2021 Response to Comment #15 for purposes of the
investment company
         status analysis therein, please confirm that the ownership of such
entities is comprised of
         at least 50 percent of the outstanding voting securities of such
entities in line with Section
         2(a)(42) of the Investment Company Act.

4.       With respect to the percentages provided representative of
investment securities    for
         purposes of the 40% Test in your November 5, 2021 Response to Comment
#15 (e.g.,
         14%, 2%, and 29% with respect to each Operating Partnership   s total
assets), please
         provide further detail on the items included in the numerator and
denominator in each
         calculation as well as those items excluded from the numerator and
denominator in order
         to arrive at those figures.

holds or intends
         to hold in each applicable TPG Fund.

6.        Please explain: (1) in greater detail why the special limited partner
interests discussed in
         footnote 6 of your November 5, 2021 Response to Comment #15 held by a
special
         purpose vehicle indirectly controlled by an Operating Partnership are
distinguishable from
         ordinary limited partnership interests in a TPG Fund; and (2) the
overall percentage of
         investment securities held by each entity that would result if such
special limited partner
         interests were to be treated as investment securities.
