Infra Finance & Advisory – Comp and Exit Opps?

Curious to hear from those with direct experience in Infrastructure Finance & Advisory roles, particularly within BBs, infra-focused boutiques, or platforms like Macquarie, etc.

Is it the same as project finance advisory?

How does total comp (base + bonus) stack up at junior/mid levels vs. infra M&A/infra PE or traditional IB?

How transferable is the skill set to buy-side roles?

Thanks all!

Assuming you’re referring to infrastructure advisory roles at big 4  / boutiques such as A&M, Arup etc? 

If so, UK pay starts at around £40k for an analyst with a c. £15-17k bump for every promotion. Bonuses are around 15% in a good year, 0-5% in a bad year.  

 

Thank you, I am interested in firms like JPM/Citi that havea  team exclusively focused on infrastructure financing
