Thanks for the insight - any idea if people move to another firm after (upmarket) or if moving to special situations / opportunistic roles after is possible? Considering either staying at a mid tier MM IB or moving into the credit scene. 

 

Deal flow, I do not think, is very limited for them. They get a bunch of origination from Apollo, but also from their own originators, and they are pretty dominant in the middle market PC space.
