I’ve worked alongside them on the private credit side a few times.

Hardworking group, but the people I’ve worked with there have all been pretty down to Earth. Very much a work hard play hard culture where the group seems to get along and do a lot of social events, so from a cultural standpoint at least it’s definitely a good spot from what I’ve gathered.

They work on a lot of more complex middle market deals, so from a junior standpoint I think the experience will probably teach you a lot more than the typical MM buyout fund you see these days.

 

Thanks for the insight, any idea on future fundraising plans since they haven't raised in quite a while or how they are financing deals?

 

I don’t work there, so I can’t candidly give u much on the fundraising efforts, but I don’t think they’re going away any time soon if that’s what you’re worried about. They’ve been pretty consistent in showing us new deals/opportunities.

From what I’ve gathered they tend be a bit more value oriented so probably didn’t deploy a ton at the top of the market and so probably underinvested it then and have dry powder. I don’t know for sure, but I’d guess they’re in market right now given my interactions w them.

 

WSO really loves zombie funds. I guess it makes sense because their juniors do not have any capital to deploy so can spend their time writing positive stories about their funds.
