Is compensation sub-par in Canada?

Hi all,

I've heard that pay in equity research on the buy side is significantly lower in Canada than the US, not sure if there's any truth to this.

I'm close to getting a research offer out of UG from a mutual fund (30B AUM). What can I expect as far as compensation?

 

starting pay for BB --> 140k all-in, compared to maybe 125k all-in in NYC.

Taxes are a bit higher and cost of living is lower. It is materially more but exit opps are quite a bit weaker in Canada as our buy side isn't as developed.
