PE placement not as good as
PE placement not as good as people hype it up to be. Even at places like JPM/BAML a lot of the times levfin won't be doing the financial modeling, it's more capital markets stuff. Basically levfin can get you into PE but it's probably not as good as the good industry groups at your bank.

It really depends on the place. I know JPM/BAML levfin pull a lot of weight during the deal process (I was at one of those shops), while places like CS/Barc/Citi, FSG and the other industry groups is the place to be.
But LevFin people at the flow shops have gone to all of the large PE shops and large credit funds as well (GSO, Denali, forgot the name of Bain's fund, etc.). If you're at one of those shops, the onus is really on you leveraging your MD and HH relationships.
