Side car - A strategy in which one investor allows a second investor to control how to invest their capital. A sidecar investment occurs when one of the parties lacks the ability/confidence to invest for themselves.
Example use case
VC fund has reached their maximum number of investors
The VC wants to onboard new investors to increase their investment liquidity
The VC sets up a "Sidecar" fund for angle investors to pool thier money together
The Sidecar delegates investment to the VC
Subsequently, the VC has increased their liquidity & number of investors without increasing the size of the fund
