Insight on Oak Hill Advisors?

Question

I haven't been able to find much about them on the forum, so I wanted to make an updated thread. What do you guys know about the firm, its reputation, comp, etc.

Any help is appreciated, thanks

They're a solid credit shop. Work on everything from new issue, to secondary stressed/distressed type trades. Generally the people there are sector people and less of generalists, but focus across the cap stack/situations.

I have heard they can work a lot sometimes (since I believe it is the same analysts that do both private/public deals). If you're just starting out of college this would be a great seat to have if interested in credit.

I would imagine solid comp similar to UMM PE or other HF's. Don't have real insight though.

Yes I know, dick - Oak Hill has a summer internship and full time program centered around high yield / distressed credit investing

It depends what you're interested in. If you know you want to be investing in credit, I would choose either Silver Point or Oak Hill. It seems like Silver Point is a bit of a grind, but maybe a better learning experience as a junior. It's also in CT vs. NY for Oak HIll, so I don't think there is 1 exact right decision. Maybe Silver Point is better for leaving credit, but Oak Hill may be a better career credit move (lifestyle).

I'd go RX IB if you are not really sure what you want to do after banking.

went through a process with them. like others have said, analysts there generally cover specific sectors across the credit spectrum (performing / HY through to distressed / some private credit). some senior folks are more segmented by asset class though, but analyst coverage is generally structured by industry vertical.
