Non IB Finance Junior Summer Internships (PE, HF, AM, etc.)

I'm currently recruiting for Summer 2025 IB internships but wanted to widen my net given how hard it can be to get an internship at any one firm. I wanted to get together a list of firms that are NOT IB but are still in high finance, like PE internships. Does anyone know some firm names that will hire 2025 interns at some point?

Examples of some might be Orion Group (PE), Point 72 (HF), Citadel (HF), Raine Group (Merchant Banking), BDT/MSD (Merchant Banking), Spectrum Equity (PE/GE), etc. 


Thanks for all the help. I want to add names here as I come across them as well.
