Hello,
I'm currently in a 2-year analyst program at a LMM PE firm. The fund is small and generalist (raising $250MM+). Was just curious what exit ops would look like for an LMM analyst after 2 years.
Looking to either jump to another LMM/MM fund or go to growth equity. Are these realistic options?

I’m in the same spot. I lateraled from IB to a small fund during my first year. What are my options other than staying at this shop?
Is $250M the fund size? (I’m new around here)
Yes
