Is Sycamore the only one mainly based in NYC? Going into a CR team that exits to all these groups but wanting to stay in NYC / Boston.

"Pulled off a blockbuster"
Deal hasn't even close yet bro lol. Lets see how it turns out before slapping backs
what do you care? shut up
Bump
where's the money come from? I don't think they've raised in years
Good question - seems like they last raised a $5 Bn fund in 2017.
Has to be a lot of co-investment capital directly from LPs. Reminds me of ECP's take private of Calpine which was very outsized compared to ECP's fundraises at the time.
