Question

Which MFs are best at / known for: industrials, TMT, FIG, energy / infra, consumer etc?

Let’s make a list

biotechbruh · Accepted Answer

Would add Warburg to the Industrials vertical. They also have one of the best Business Services teams, despite being newly separated.

Top5Top5 · Answer

Industrials: KKR

TMT: KKR, Warburg (mostly tech but would argue they are among the best in growth), Thoma, Vista, Silver Lake (super interesting stuff they do in Tech-enabled Media)

FIG: BX?, Apollo

Infra: BX, GIP

Consumer: Bain Cap, Advent

Happy to hear the thoughts of others!

I’d just assume that if you’re in Menlo then you’re doing software and if you’re in NY you’re doing media / entertainment.

I don’t know about movies, but Google “BMG KKR” to read about the purchase of John Legend’s music catalogue. They also did a similar deal with Ryan Tedder from OneRepublic.

There isn’t really a way to answer your last question, as I’m not sure what “good” means for you. Both TMT and industrials will give you good deal experience and branding from KKR, so it really comes down to what type of investing you want to do.

The scope was too wide under the combined umbrella and management wanted to build out a practice around one of the Biz Svcs partners (Stephanie Geveda). Now they have dedicated resources at the junior level which makes staffing the sourcing and deal evaluation side of things a bit more streamlined. Anecdotally sounds like it has helped with QOL issues that were previously present in the old Industrials & Business Services coverage group circa 2020.
