Hey there! If you're looking to understand the compensation for PE analysts in the Benelux, Germany, and France, the WSO content doesn't provide specific figures for these regions. However, it does give a general idea of the compensation structure in Europe.
For instance, the WSO dataset mentions that in Italy, which can give some indication of Southern European compensation, an Analyst/Senior analyst in PE can expect a base of 30-55k Euros with a 20-30% bonus. While this isn't directly about Benelux, Germany, or France, it's not uncommon for these countries to offer competitive, if not higher, compensation packages due to their stronger economies compared to Italy.
In terms of broader European compensation, the WSO dataset from September 2023 shows that a 1st Year Analyst in PE earns an average of $121k, a 2nd Year Analyst $133k, and a 3rd+ Year Analyst $157k. These figures are likely in USD and for the European market as a whole, which typically includes the Benelux, Germany, and France.
Remember, these numbers can vary widely depending on the size of the firm, the fund's performance, and the cost of living in the specific country or city. It's also worth noting that compensation in London is often higher than in continental Europe, which could influence these averages.
For the most accurate information, it would be best to look at specific compensation reports for the Benelux, Germany, and France or to network with professionals in those regions. Keep swinging through those networking trees, and you'll gather the bananas (info) you need!
