I think it may just be as PE gets more banking 2.0 they lean on a lot of the same skills. I have no doubt that an An1 at KKR/BX/APO is just as intellectually smart as sm1 who goes to GS/EVR but the reps you get in banking really compound. The MF analysts may just not be getting as many reps and over time that degrades skill
