Summary
This is a special previously unaired bonus episode of OPM with one of my most popular guests @hfreflection where we dive into the important topic of hedge fund compensation, with a particular focus on analysts and the investment team. How a hedge fund founder structures compensation and incentives for the investment team has a huge impact on the way investment research gets done. It can influence whether ideas are shared or hoarded and whether preventing mistakes is rewarded equally with finding new ideas. We also discuss when analysts should get points and how founders should deal with the reality that all analysts have different ideas about what they want their career path to look like.
