I am curious if there is an equivalent to Stone Point Capital in Europe which solely focuses in FIG buyouts? Has anyone come across such a PE?

Well, based on the most helpful WSO content, Stone Point Capital is indeed a unique player in the market with a focus on financial services and fintech. However, I don't have specific information about a European equivalent that solely focuses on FIG buyouts.
In the world of Private Equity, firms often have a diverse range of interests and sectors they invest in. While some may have a strong focus on a particular sector, it's not common to find firms that exclusively focus on one area, such as FIG.
That being said, there are certainly European PE firms that have a strong interest in the FIG sector. It might be worth exploring some of the larger, well-established firms, as they often have the resources and expertise to invest in a wide range of sectors, including FIG.
Remember, the key is to do your research and find a firm that aligns with your interests and career goals. Good luck on your journey!

Thanks, do you have any insights on the hiring process, requirements and work culture are they proper sweatshops?
