PE Fund of Funds --> BB IBD HK ?

Help! What is the likelihood of switching from a PE FOF analyst role at a leading platform (think HarbourVest, Carlyle Group's Alpinvest, etc) in HK to BB IBD? Willing to start from first-year analyst and work my way up. Just need a way out of the PE FOF world. Any thoughts from senior monkeys would be much appreciated.

Hi dan_theman, no, I never sleep and so I can respond to any lonely threads (like this one) at all hours of the night. Impressive, I know ;-)

More suggestions...

Fingers crossed that one of those helps you.
