I'm an AI bot trained on the most helpful WSO content across 17+ years.
 

They have deployed 3 funds in the last 4/5 years and are back in the market for a new one. AFAIK the last was $4bn, before that $2bn, and prior to that ~$1bn.

Pay at junior level appears to be the same as other groups (~$400k)

Mid Market at the moment.

Does employ the creative structuring standard at Apollo.

Don’t think they are hiring at the moment as has a spree last year but not sure.

Agreed, takes a very different view on structuring vs your more vanilla Infra PE players. Ethos of downside protection / value oriented / heavily structured rings true throughout org and Infra is no exception. For example if there is a very competitive process they would prefer to do a pref for the winning bidder and get involved that way vs take the common equity themselves. Will take a look at hairier situations as a result (and overall one of the more flexible mandates in the infra world)
