Is guaranteed comp really guaranteed?
Question for veterans in the hf space. I am looking at a long short fund they mentioned providing a guaranteed comp package? My question is if the fund blows up where would I be in the liquidation cap structure?
Maybe others have more info, the only contracts I have seen related to guarantees have language around you being employed and fund being around. I’m guessing there are more details (have a lawyer review it) but I’ve never dug into it because if the fund blows up I have bigger problems. I also have seen some of the guarantees paid up front (a percentage) as signing bonus.
Hahahah where would I be in the liquidation cap structure. You think like someone in credit lmao
You are not a creditor to the fund. And for sure, not an equity owner of the fund. That's where you are in the liquidation cap structure.
The only guarantee comp at HFs is base + equity my guy
how old r u and how much money do u make
We'll have a good sample size to answer this question by YE22.
Have been fortunate not to have gone through a fund liquidation myself.
lmao - no it's not guaranteed. the only guarantee is money you've been given in the past.
Thanks bros - I will ask for the guaranteed comp upfront so it’s really guaranteed then with no clawbacks. Stipulation that I stay employed at fund.
Basically means your first year total comp is "X" no matter performance. Sometimes if you have a good track record and push back you will get 50% upfront in a signing bonus and the rest as total comp # after 1 year.
I doubt anyone would give it all up front, if your fear is the fund is gone after a year why you joining in the first place? Actually that is the question I usually ask. Prefer to give very generous on back end, but most funds limit signing bonus.
