Due to the increased size of mutual funds, the diversified fund thresholds have limited mutual funds' ability to take meaningful positions in small-cap companies.
Mr. de Blasio and Mr. Stringer said they expected to soon reach the matching-fund threshold for the primary, in which the candidates will be allowed to spend no more than $6.73 million each, in part from money they raise, and in part from matching funds.

Although state and federal lawmakers have decried those practices, attempts to close the loophole or lower the funding threshold have failed.
If the funding threshold is met, then the writing and publishing process begins.
Our COGS analysis further determined what their minimum funding threshold had to be and if that minimum funding threshold was achieved (which it has been in this case), the product could be built," he said.
"Dragon takes on detailed vetting of each team and project, so that if the funding threshold is met, the team will deliver on the promise to its backers.
This creates an incentive to report a cost/LY just below the apparent funding threshold, which on the basis of funding decisions would seem to lie within the range of $A40,00 to $A70,000/LY or/QALY[ 1].
The identification of a large number of interventions (37%) reported at less than A$10,000 per LY/QALY/DALY (including 8% that were dominant), which is below any putative funding threshold is important in itself.
Using a funding threshold of £30 000 per QALY which is at the higher end of a range used within the United Kingdom (National Institute for Clinical Excellence, 2004), these results show that low-dose extended duration interferon therapy is unlikely to be considered cost-effective.
