Large primaries and co-invest business where they partner with leading GPs. They have good relationships in the market and AFAIK are often first or second call for some GPs on the co-invest side. On the secondaries side they do both GP led and LP led but have been focusing more on the GP led as everybody else. Understand working hours are better than direct PE and comp in line or slightly below. Their AUM is very diversified and spread across many different funds, portfolio companies, direct co-investments so if you end up earning carry at one of those FoFs the chances of actually getting something are higher. It is not dependent on 8 deals where if 1 blows up you are screwed. Pretty good gig I would say if that is what you are into.
