MM capital markets or Lifeco -> REPE?

If the long term goal is acq at a repe fund or developer/REIT, which would be a better opportunity?

  • MM capital markets brokerage with good regional client base from what I gather
  • debt origination/analysis at major lifeco
  • equity AM with a major lifeco

I would pick the second. Would much rather get the transactional/modelling experience, even if you’re looking at things from a debt perspective.
