WSO in a nutshell

Arcline has had a strong run. Crosspoint Capital is an interesting case -- closed Fund II on 800m-900m, but keep losing PE talent.
honestly baypine was impressive with their first fundraise & their partners, but i think there's a lack of quality at the VP/principal level leading to a lot of turnover at the junior level. didn't close a deal for like 2 years i think and heard through the grapevine their targeting around the same size for their next fund. Wouldn't call it failing but wouldn't call it a "best emerging fund" either
