Confidential quant talent mapping
Before you open a search, know the size of the pool, what it costs, and who else is bidding for it.
What is a quant talent map?
A talent map is a systematic view of every professional who could plausibly fill a role in a given market: how many exist, where they currently sit, what they are paid, how long they typically stay, and which firms are competing for the same people. It replaces guesswork at the point where a hiring budget is set.

What a map contains
Compensation to clear
The range you need to be inside to be competitive, and the point above which you are overpaying.
Competitive set
Which firms hire the same profile, how aggressively they are moving, and where they typically win.
Movement patterns
Typical tenure, the moves people actually make, and the seasonal windows when they are open to them.
Adjacent pools
Where to widen the search when the direct pool is too small — usually the difference between filling and not filling.
Relocation options
Which of the ten markets you could realistically draw from, with visa and cost-of-living reality.

Methodology
Figures are expressed as annual total compensation (base salary plus expected performance bonus) in the reference market's local currency, converted from a US dollar base. They describe typical market ranges rather than any individual offer, and exclude sign-on payments, deferred equity and carried interest. Portfolio-manager figures reflect formulaic profit-share arrangements and are therefore far more dispersed than any other role.
