First Round Interview REPE Debt Analyst

Hi guys,

Finally landed an interview at an Industrial REPE Fund for a Debt Analyst role "focused on Pan-European Financings and Deal Analysis" (I'm from DCM / Debt Syn in IB), I asked someone to get some guidance and he told me to have a look at the following points, by any chance would you have some information regarding these?

- Who is lending them money?

- Why is the french debt market so hard? 

- What is the lending universe for value-add?

- Why is industrial still attractive at these yields? (Check spread to EURIBOR etc...)

Any information / advice will be much appreciated!

Best

1. probably pension funds

2. lenders are too focused on their baguettes, not enough on work

3. this is an extremely vague question not sure what you mean by this but here's my guess they're trying to get at - banks, nonbank lender, repe funds that do debt products, etc...

4. as long as their is a large enough spread between cap rates and debt int rates for an investor to make a profit, someone will be willing to buy it
