The report is based on the annual compensation survey conducted by MM&K and Holt, drawing directly on data submitted by participating alternative investment firms. This participant-led approach ensures the findings are current, reliable and reflect market practice. Each year, around 100 private equity and venture capital firms contribute detailed information on their remuneration policies and compensation arrangements for partners and employees.

The report covers all key elements of reward, including base salary, employee benefits, annual bonuses and carried interest participation for 53 roles across the industry. It also provides detailed analysis of annual incentive plans, carried interest structures, co-investment arrangements and GP commitment requirements, together with a broad range of workforce and human capital trends.
