KippsDeSanto as a boutique ADG?

Can someone provide insight on specific exit opportunities for KDS? I'm curious on whether people typically lateral to a larger bank, exit to corporate finance, go PE, or etc. I think Capital One as a top 10 bank (in terms of assets) is interesting but since their acquisition of Kipps and TripleTree, I would be interested to know how that has improved C1 as a bank and vice versa for the two boutiques.
