Sixth Street Partners
Have seen a few other posts about this shop. What is their general level of prestige, most comparable funds and what are they known for? What’s comp and WLB like?

Unfamiliar with comp and wlb because I don’t work there, but the firm is highly prestigious. Raised a comparatively massive fund for their Special Sits / opportunistic group and have thrown their money around in cool opportunities (Airbnb, Spurs etc.)
They are highly regarded in the space for being sharp investors who consistently achieve top returns given their downside protection
Can anyone speak to their sector expertise? Particularly tech?
Any insight into how the various platforms listed on their website compare?
Bump. Interested in how their infrastructure and agriculture strategies are viewed in comparison. Are they targeting similar levels of returns to special sits strategy / do all groups invest out of flagship funds?
TAO invests in across of their strategies though each strategy also has its own dedicated fund. As for returns, they do differ across strategies. I know that special sits targets returns in the mid 20s while others like specialty lending target returns in the low to mid teens. Im not so sure about other strategies like growth equity tho

Does anyone know why they split from TPG?
Basically they became too big (e.g. raising 25bn through their TAO fund) and began to overlap too much with TPG for it to make sense to remain siloed through the partnership
