Based on the most helpful WSO content, here are some reference points for compensation in the real estate finance sector, which might give you an idea of where compensation stands for Associates and Senior Associates in 2024:

  1. Senior Associate (Acquisitions) in Real Estate Private Equity (West Coast)

    • Base Salary: $115,000
    • Bonus: 50-75%
    • Additional Benefits: 401k, medical/dental/vision
  2. General Compensation Trends in Investment Banking (September 2023)

    • Associates: $260,000 (Total Avg Compensation)
    • Vice President: $392,000 (Total Avg Compensation)
  3. Private Equity Associate Compensation (2023)

While these figures are primarily from the U.S. market, they can provide a rough benchmark. For more specific data on London-based real estate debt funds, you might want to explore recent threads or reports on Wall Street Oasis that focus on the UK market.
