Lol private credit 1st year associates at the well known funds (ares, blue owl, sixth st, BX credit, etc) are pulling 300k+. MD is a very wide title, but at institutional type places, starts at around the $1mm mark, give or take - from what i've heard
Any insight on the portfolio/operations team comp at the associate level for those funds?
Salary starts at $400,000 to $500,000 for a newly minted MD with all-in comp highly variable based on carry and other components. But expect at least $1,000,000 all in.
Most VP's at MF are making $1M+
cash or inclusive of annualized carry?
With carry
Great insight - I wish there was more data on MM PC comp. Very tough info to find
