Private (Quasi-VC) Investing on the Side?
With the fear of sounding ignorant to the basic rules of IBD compliance policies, to what extent is it viable to invest in a startup fundraising round (if you were able to finagle some shares, that is), e.g. if my friend is working at a series B or C startup and offers me to join in for a fundraising round. I'm currently working in a coverage group for the same industry, so I'm thinking that might raise a potential conflict of interest if I were to work on a deal for a company that would be seen as a competitor... have you guys heard of investment bankers participating in startup fundraising rounds as minority investors?

Don't ask us, ask compliance at your firm. You'll probably have to clear it with them in any case.
