I don't know which one is better, but I do know oaktree is extremely legit. Arguably the biggest/best vulture fund out there.
is bigger in distress, both are big, well-respected organizations. I don't think Oaktree is the best distressed investor out there, but they're certainly around/in most big situations (there are funds with smarter people, in my mind, doing distress)
aren't these both places to exit to, rather than places to consider exit opps from.....
You didn't just ask that question. Please tell me you're being sarcastic.
Is the gap between the two so wide that the question isn't even worth asking? That doesnt seem to be the general opinion so far...
Oaktree is better. Takes kids from UBS-LA every year. But yea, you don't really aim to exit from firms like Oaktree and GSC.
It's not worth asking b/c it's absurd to think you'd join one of those two for exit opps, not because one is so much better than the other.
