Know a kid who interned there back when they had a program. Most of what the bot says actually checks out to me…
Solid shop, strong returns. Good bit of turnover
Any idea on comp?
They are slightly below PE market after 2 years of IB
best in class hedge fund, flagship is largest evergreen fund in the world that focuses on distressed credit and special sits, very smart investors but definitely a bit sharp elbowed
Are you able to share Silver Point’s flagship AUM and/or returns?
Any idea on culture / WLB?
A lot of threads on this. It’s intense culturally. Long hours in Greenwich. Smart people though.
Can you provide some color on this? How is analyst retention? Banking hours or long relative to other hedge funds?
Sure. I charge $2k per hour. Googling is free though
Least cocky first year HF analyst
what are returns?
Absolutely insanely ludicrously high. 15% annualized after fees since inception. 20%+ before fees.
