What are the exit opportunities for someone with 1-3 years experience as an equities analyst at a well known, big (>$500bn AUM) asset management firm? Finding my current role over the past couple of years very slow-paced and dull so thinking about changing. How easy is it to get to PE/Hedge fund/Boutique from here? No IB/sell-side experience whatsoever, based in London.

Do you think the boredom is more so a function of your firm and not the work itself? If you find the work of an equity analyst boring, you may be disappointed to find that L/S funds (the kind that would give your background a look) may be more of the same. Albeit you may have higher velocity of investments, you'll still have that long, fundamental diligence process that I suspect is boring you. It may be worth getting coffee with an analyst from a few boutique AMs to hear about their investment process and to see if maybe their style/strategy/culture could be more stimulating for you.
