Hi Guys,
So one thing I've been really trying to figure out is Equity Research or Investment Banking.
I interned for 6 months in Equity Research and loved it and am studying for CFA. I loved the process, and consider myself not too quantitative and can give presentations/talk to people well. I haven't have the IB experience, but am also interested.
However, it seems as if I might start off in Investment banking. Would I be able to transfer from a small IB firm to BB Equity Research? I plan on going for my CFA level 1 and also would have the 63, 79, and 82.
Also would I be able to transfer from Equity Research to IB?
What skillset would be transferable/most valuable?
I understand how these have differing job functions and have some overlap in terms of a bit of similar modeling, just trying to get an idea of transferable skillset?
Thanks!

I have a friend of mine who after a Summer within the IB of a BB wants to move in Equity Research. You can do it, but it's not easy, at least for them it hasn't been (they interned at GS/JPM/MS). About the skillset - IB gives you def more opportunities for HF and PE
Any way for BB equity research associate to move into IBD? (Originally Posted: 01/07/2018)
Hi, I am in equity research with a BB for a few years now. I feel that with the recent MIFID II and the decline in sales/trading revenue, it's best for me to move away from research. My question is, is there a realistic path to move from research to banking? If so, how? I've been applying to IBD jobs, but I've garnered no interest from the IBD side at all, any advice would be helpful, thanks!
