Does anyone have any idea how hard it would be to lateral to a top-tier non-infrastructure HF? If it would be hard to move now, would it substantially help to go to business school first?
Thanks in advance for the help!

Bump, any help is appreciated!
I'm sure it's possible - there are publicly traded infra companies but I'm sure the deep modelling experience would be seen as valuable in other strategies. However I am curious why you want to give public markets a shot, especially if you have loved your experience?

Thanks for the help!
My personal $0.02 is stay where you have a competitivet advantage - the equity l/s / value investing space is crowded and you are right that you will have acquired a very specific skillset to infrastructure, which is where you have the competitive advantage - i have been in equities for 6 years for example and there is no way i could move to infrastructure at this stage. I am sure it can be done, but my personal advice is stay where you have the competitive advantage, especially given your comment you love what you do. Just my 2 cents, dont know if others think any differently.
Energy, Utilities, Munis etc. are industries where your skills fit.. such funds may work. However, you need to have a good grasp of capital markets; consider looking through Dastidar's investments book for a quick read, as others have said elsewhere in the forums.
