The Chertoff Group - DC Investment Banking

Hello all,

Could someone please give me information on this shop? My understanding is that it is a boutique investment bank with an ADG focus and is ramping up a $MMM private equity fund in house. IB folks work on the fund as well. That’s my belief of the place. Anybody know of anything about them? Prestige, hours, pay, exits, etc. How do they compare to Houlihan, KippsDeSanto, etc.?
