At a $20bn+ Fund in London:
- Ubers every evening
- £30 dinner allowance
- 30 Basis points of carry at VP level
- Levered Co-invest with firm providing internal credit facility at 80% LTV
- Drinks expensed
- Yearly global off-site in the Hamptons
80% LTV? Meaning you lever your Investment by 1:4, e.g. 100k Equity Investment with 400k of Debt?
And what are the all-in financing costs? 100-150bps?
In theory you are right. But you will likely be capped at a much lower total investment amount (say $100-200k per year, increasing with seniority). Also interest expense is usually significantly higher (closer to 300-500bps).
