Venture capital, private equity, and hedge funds are three of the most popular types of investing jobs. All of these roles are common exit opportunities after investment banking. Each of these roles has a different approach to investing and focuses on different kinds of companies. In this video, we'll discuss how each of these investing jobs work, what their investment criteria typically looks like, and how much they can potentially earn. Note that figures here are broad estimates and are based on North American statistics.

When did you know you were ready for buyside recruiting?
@PeakFrameworks 3 жыл бұрын
I feel like on-cycle my year was so early most people didn't really feel ready to be honest. This year is anomalous in the sense that analysts have over a year to prepare. I would say once you can comfortably talk about your deals to someone in the industry and when you can build an LBO model within 2 hours, you should be good.

Hi Matt, very insightful videos, thank you for pumping them out every month! I’m an international prospect for IB and eventually PE/HF at a target, and wanted to know how friendly PE /HF firms are with H1B sponsorships, in your experience? During your time at Silver-lake and Providence, were you on H1B or TN? Thanks!
@PeakFrameworks 3 жыл бұрын
PE tends to be marginally better for visas from my experience. I was on a TN at Providence and only interned at Silver Lake so believe that was a J-1. They both knew upfront that I was a Canadian citizen.

@PeakFrameworks 3 жыл бұрын
Once you get to IB, it's pretty much just meeting with headhunters and then going for it. Provided you're at a top investment bank, there's really not that much more to it. You can go directly to either PE or HF.

Hi Matt, I’ve been wondering who manage portfolio companies in private equity? Does the PE firm have both management team and investment team, or the investment team also sit on board in portfolio companies?
@PeakFrameworks 3 жыл бұрын
The portfolio companies are often managed by the companies themselves, with some involvement from the PE firm. The level of involvement depends on a lot of things. Some PE firms are more strategically oriented. Some companies need more help. In general though, investment team is relatively detached from day-to-day operations though IMO.

Congrats on Evercore, obviously an awesome place to work. The Valuation and Finance Course is probably the best, you're going to be way better than your peers if you already know how to check models / produce high quality outputs. Aside from that, it's just being a good sport and putting in the hours. I think EVR has a high return rate.

Hi Peak Frameworks, Recently watched some of your videos which are super helpful. My question are: 1.Which BBA should I take Computer engineering or Finance so that I can easily get hired without language barriers on IB? 2.Will it be helpful if I take BBA in computer engineering and Master in Finance in any way? 3.I want to be in IB but related to real estate , any advice on that? 4.Which divisions get you a lot of experiences related to finance? Which are the hardest and easiest divisions to work on? Thanks Brit

Hey going to the LSE (London School of Econ) for law this september and heavily interested in PE/VC/HF/Capital markets generally. How do you rate my prospects (assuming I will mostly specialize in relevant law e.g. compliance, mergers, financial i.e., transactional). I know I’m not an orthodox choice like IB/Consulting candidates from my school (or Ivies for that matter) but I have also heard transactional-focused lawyers are useful assets in funds and etc buyside operations. I would love your insight!!

@PeakFrameworks 3 жыл бұрын
Might be hard to go straight into buyside still. I think easiest path is probably do restructuring banking and then go to a buyside role, but not 100% sure. Maybe you could do distressed PE / HF or something that requires a lot of legal work.
@bobytim726 Жыл бұрын
You should go for M&A team and then after couple deals move to buy side later on you can open your own firm and do small deals 5 - 100 million. You need to be very good in networking too

Could you do a video on recruiting from IB -> corporate finance? Since there is much less of a recruitment framework in corporate finance compared to PE/HF, it would be helpful to hear about the experiences your peers have had and some successful strategies in recruiting for the right position.

How long do you think I should stay in TAS before trying to make a move to IB? Also what would you say is the cutoff age for an IB Analyst? I’m currently 24, turning 25 in a few months. Thanks for the educational videos and keep up the great content!

Long Onlys aren't hedge funds, they're asset managers. You list Capital Group as a subset of "Long Only Hedge Fund". They're not HF they're an asset manager. Also, Long Onlys aren't "very close to mutual funds in nature", they are mutual funds. They offer mutual fund products to investors. Also, in your graph at 7:15, you say Long Onlys hold ~10-30 investments per fund which isn't true at all. Capital Group managers $2T+, there's no way they only hold 10-30 investments. They have multiple portfolios and the company holds 100s of stocks, you can peep their 13-F. Please stop spreading misinformation on the public side.

Thanks Andrew. I had this video reviewed by my HF friends, but I appreciate you commenting with more detail. I asked friends at FPR, Aravt, Eagle and Crimson, which are long only funds that are in the ~10-30 investment range. The employees also refer to themselves as hedge funds and not asset managers. There is certainly a clear difference between the Capital Group / Fidelity AMs of the world and these pure-play long only funds, but for the purpose of an overview I thought this would suffice.
@andrewzeng366 2 жыл бұрын
@@PeakFrameworks Thanks for responding. Cap Group/Fidelity do run more hedge fund like than other LOs, and while they do have some HF like mandates for some of their funds, most of their money is run like a traditional long only. In a similar sense, you could say Cap Group has also expanded into privates to curb outflows and own a bunch of portfolio companies (they manage $5B, which is actually quite large and would fit the strict definition of a mid-market) but no one refers to them as a PE fund
@andrewzeng366 2 жыл бұрын
Also, on the HF note, if you could clarify between single managers and multi-managers, that would be super helpful. I understand that this channel caters heavily to banking and the significant chunk of exits in banking center around privates, but there is a significant difference between SM and MM HF track. Single managers are incredibly difficult to land and have long term job security given their long term investment horizon whereas most post MBA grads would not take a multi-manager role (and even prefer a LO role) because they blow up so quick and a lot of it is trading quarters/catalysts. Perhaps a new video idea!

That's a great suggestion Andrew, I appreciate your explanation. It's a little bit out of my scope, so I don't plan on making too much HF content, but if you're ever interested in a guest blog post to share your knowledge, let me know!
