Portfolio management, second career step
Hello,
I work as a credit pm for 8 years now and i feel a bit stuck in my current role for different reasons. I've always been with the same firm so aside from looking for a better comp and a new environment at a competitor, is there a different field that I should look into ? (my background: MFE/quant, cfa)
Try a different sector? Are you currently structured products, IG, EM, HY, privates? Maybe you could try equities.
I'm in IG/HY, traditionnal fundamental approach. I'm keen on using my quant education, although it's probably a bit rusty now (and lacking experience)
I am no more than a 2nd year analyst for structured/distressed assets, but is there applicable skill to go from PM in IGC to say Private or Equities? Granted I believe most skills can be learned just a few odd scenarios that may have not been previously encountered.
Most of the PMs at my fund in HY & IGC were former commercial bankers and the PMs in Private, EM & Equities were former investment bankers. Just an observation, may be due to my firm's politics in recruiting though.

Can someone from ER move into portfolio management, Investment Banking, Trading, or Private Equity?
