GIC Direct Investments Group

Hi all - does anyone have any insight on associate culture / comp / exits out of GIC's Direct Investments Group (minority-investment only PE arm of GIC)? Specifically the New York and San Francisco offices - and any notable differences between the two.


Additionally, how would the three-year program look to other buyside shops given a) the minority-investment only nature and b) the fact that it's a SWF (does that even matter?)


Would really appreciate any updated perspectives on this topic. 


Know there's been a handful of old threads on this topic but wanted to get updated perspectives / re-bump
