Based on previous WSO threads, the payout of signing bonuses for associates at Moelis can vary. For example, one thread mentions that a top bucket for first-year analysts included an additional $20,000 to be paid in December. However, specific details for associates' year-end bonuses are not explicitly mentioned in the provided context.

For more precise information, it would be best to refer to any guidance your bank has given or consult with colleagues who have experience with Moelis' bonus payout schedule.
