I am planning on working at a lower MM PE firm this summer (in the range of 400-1000mil AUM). I will be doing a mix of sourcing, industry research, financial valuation, and other quantitative projects. The firm has been doing decently in the past few years, but I was wondering if trying to find a boutique IB internship would be better to prepare for SA recruiting this fall.

If you took a few minutes too use the search bar or google to research it you would know the answer is obviously yes. A boutique IB internship is very good too but depending on the firm / the validity of your firm (what banks did their associates / VPs work at before?), a PE internship could be just as good or better. The PE internship will be more than adequate on the “experience checklist” for any IB job you would persue next summer.
ok thanks. some of the associates came from banks like citi/baml while others worked at MM or niche shops like pharus/jegi
