structured products group BB, FO?
I am interviewing with the structured products group at a BB. Not the IB group but the sales/trading/ ops group. Can anyone provide any color on this group and if it is FO/MO/BO? At times it seems they are FOwith trading and structuring products but they were very unclear. Any insight is much appreciated.
First off, I wouldn't group ops with S&T. Ops is MO in this context, but S&T is FO.
Regarding Structuring, that is a FO role. Value chain is Structurers talk with clients to build the term sheets, structured products traders will hedge the associated risk, and if the desk trades flow structured products (e.g., accumulators/deccumulators), then there will also be a structured sales desk who take incoming requests and may even execute the trades, for which the structured traders again hedge the associated risk.
Structured products can be anything from creating custom indexes and algorithms for institutional capital, to creating CDO's on behalf of lenders, to custom purchase arrangements in bilateral trades with Family Offices or wealth managers.
Do you know anything about Raymond James structured products group in St Petersburg?
this is really helpful. so this is a traditional sales and trading role then? how much does that vary by firm?
