what's the difference between trading at an internal HF of a BB vs an actual HF not part of a BB?
Is pay higher in one over the other? Are you more likely to be able to start your own HF if you traded at a BB's internal HF?

These are the primary differences between the two. As far as being more likely to start your own H-fund at either/or, it goes back to payscale and the contacts you can generate from either arena.
Think of the entreprenuership mentality. If you work for the man, you get a regular pay check and it's less of a headache but you have limited income potential. With starting your own fund, it's the converse...
What is it like to be an analyst at a bank's internal HF? (Originally Posted: 08/01/2014)
Hi.
I wanted to know what it was like to work at a bank's (bb and boutique) internal hedge fund? Is it any different than an independent HF? What's the lifestyle like? What's the pay like?
Thanks.

Nowadays, it feels like unemployment.

Hi. I'm not sure the I-banking bullpen is the right place for my topic, but it looks as it's more active than the Hedge funhouse. I've been curious about something since quite a long time know, what is it like to work at an internal BB hedge fund? Is it any different than working for any other fund?
are you talking about internal HF's? Or HF credit/risk analyst roles?
internal ones

What's everyone's take on internal hedge funds at BB's? Are these good/well respected opportunities?
Depends on the BB clearly. Be wary of any fund of fund groups.
and we have an internal hedge fund used to manage the warrants, etc that go along with deals. its a one man shop where i work, but i would imagine it would be more complex with a bb. ask whos money they are managing and what kind of hedge fund they would consider themselves. if its anything like ours, they have no objective other than managing whatever comes off our deals, and therefore it is not a specific type of hedge fund. i still think it could be a good opportunity if this was the case depending where you are in your career.
