Resource America Compensation Question

I'm currently an SA and I expect to be receiving an offer next year. Does anyone have any direct or comparative information regarding compensation at Resource America, Inc for an entry-level analyst in new product development? Basically, I would be doing research, prepping pitch-books for clients, meeting clients etc.

RAI is a publicly traded alternative asset manager of institutional capital with about 18 billion in AUM. Investment is primarily in CDO's, real estate, equipment finance and other areas.

Should I be expecting compensation on par with BB I-bankers? More? Less? By how much?

Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers.

Thanks MMmonkey. How about Exit Ops/ Compensation at more senior levels?

This is my 2nd SA internship with RAI and I'm completely in the dark regarding compensation etc. All I know is that I will be dealing directly with institutional clients in 1-2 years...

The 50-70% less than comparable IBD compensation is a little unnerving, considering buy-side is the general exit-op from these positions, as is my understanding. What would you recommend for career strategy? I do not have the GPA for BB IBD and I do not go to a target school.
