GCM Grosvenor - Strategic Investments Group

Has anybody heard anything about GCM Grosvenor's Strategic Investments Group?

It sounds like they are a hybrid fund including some special sit/distress investing. If anybody has any insight on recent deals, team size, IC structure, compensation, etc. please share.

Heard very bad things. Team is subpar (one of the guys leading the team caused his previous HF to close down due to a bad short in South Africa), they also don't do any direct investing. Just piggy back off of a few hedge funds their FoF team has invested in. (D1 Capital, etc.) If you actually want to learn and not be at a tracker fund do not go here. 

 

Any updated insight to this group? Has their strategy changed at all or are they still really just doin co-invest/idea generation off of the FoF relationships? Any views on comp?
