Anyone have any knowledge? P/E? WM? DRT? RE? HF? BB?
Paging Nuppal
Welcome to Atlanta where the playas play
P/E is a tough cookie here with no contacts. WM is mostlt advisors and a few small HF DRT? Real Estate is dead here, I have met no less than 8 RE people in 6 months that are desperately looking, and these are well established guys. HF’s, like I said earllier a few small ones. The BB presence here is pretty small, consisting of advisory offices. There are quite a few boutique investment banks but they are running a pretty tight ship right now. You should look at Home Depot, Delta, Coca Cola, and other Atlanta native companies that have a strong presence here. Or, you can have my job which I officially resigned from today.
Thanks! 
Great information Good luck with your new endeavours!
Also, forgot to mention… I know of a few people looking to raise their own funds right now, I can put you in contact with them if you’d like. The finance industry in Atlanta is a tricky beast. There is a very large, sleepy, and lazy advisory side, then there is an almost underground P/E, IB, VC side that no one really sees/hears about. There is a HUGE legal presence though. Also, we have great strip clubs.

PE: Arcapita, Roark RIA: Crawford, ZWJ, A. Montag Mutual fund: Atlanta Capital, Buckhead Capital, Invesco, Montag & Caldwell HF: GMT Partners, Riverside Advisors And those Suntrust spin-outs that are doing PE, HF, mutual fund management stuff. Ridgeworth I think. I agree w/ Nuppal that it’s pretty much impossible unless you have contacts down here in Atlanta. Edit: Forgot, Earnest Partners are pretty big down here too. They run around $20 billion I think
Nuppal, our strip clubs are “alright,” nothing to brag about. Once you go down to Florida…you will find the selections in Atlanta boring as hell.
That being said, I feel like I can send you the contact info on people in most of the industries you are looking in. Be aware though, I have tried almost all of them and they are closed tighter than a nun on Easter.
Thx. I am awaiting to hear back regarding some other opportunities in Dallas. Atlanta for me might be in the next 1-2 years. I will keep you in mind if I do go that direction and try to re-find you on this board! And Greetings to you too, M. Hunter
Oh, and our basketball team absolutely dominates bitch3s You need to be careful when you move here though. You want to stay inside the perimeter and north of where I-20 intersects the city. Trust me.
How is your guy’s streetball industry down there?
Atlanta is a fairly dry investment desert. Probably not the place to look for job in the aforementioned fields except WM. I’ll add to Kevin’s list. P/E: Peachtree Equity, Atlanta Equity, HIG Ventures (VC), Croft & Bender (Small shop, Mostly IB) WM: Suntrust, MS, BAML, Wilmington Trust, Balentine RE: CBRE, Carter (I believe they have an investment arm) BB: Not really unless you consider Invesco and Suntrust BBs (I don’t) Atlanta actually has a respectable number of boutique IBs littered around the city. I think it would almost be easier to get an IB gig than anything in ER or HF. It seems as though Atlanta recruits almost exclusively from Emory, Virginia, Duke, Vandy, Wake, and UGA. Those schools are just as competitive with the Ivies. Not too many yankee accents in ATL’s financial industry.
I know the only analyst at Peachtree Equity. We went to highschool together (with Pacepaperboy) you will not got a job there. Like chuck said, there are a good amount of IB’s in Atlanta but deal flow is virtually nil right now.
ah, i interviewed many years ago at invesco in atlanta. call jockey in 401k admin or something.
