  • Hours in Private Credit: Typically range around 50-60 hours per week. This can sometimes be less, but for the distressed side, there are times when it can be more, although this is infrequent.
  • Size/Strategy of Fund:
    • Mega Funds (MF): Generally, the hours are consistent with the 50-60 hour range.
    • Distressed Strategies: Can occasionally require more hours, but this is not the norm.
  • Last Minute Deal Sprints: These are not commonly mentioned as a frequent occurrence in the context provided.
