"Eloping Privately" Heats Up, Quantifying Why Employees Seek Alternative Paths

Recently, Huayao Private Equity completed registration with the China Securities Investment Fund Association, and the background of its actual controller Li Guang has attracted attention. Information shows that he previously held an important role at the well-known quantitative private equity firm Panson Asset Management. In fact, among the newly registered private equity firms, many key figures have connections with well-known private equity firms, especially in the field of quantitative private equity, where cases of "running away privately" are common. Industry insiders believe that with the rapid development of quantitative finance in recent years, more and more people are choosing to start their own businesses, and issues related to incentive mechanisms and profit distribution are leading many private equity fund managers to leave their old companies and start new ones.
