HELP: PwC FSR Group

Hi Everyone,

I was wondering if anyone has any knowledge about PwC's Financial Instruments, Structured Products and Real Estate (FSR) Group.

"The PwC FSR group has experience in all aspects of securitization accounting, tax, finance, servicing, valuation, asset analysis and due diligence, structuring alternatives, transaction closings and issuance, trustee and bond administration operations, investor reporting, financial reporting, compliance, Regulation AB reporting, technology, transaction surveillance, and risk management."

Any information regarding prestige, pay, exit ops would be very much appreciated!

Hi could I also get some information about FSR... I know this is an old post but its the only thing I could find about it. I'm in PwC core assurance right now but am looking to switch. Would you know the pay differential between the two groups?

 

I would love info on the group if anyone has it. I have spoken with many people at the firm but am trying to learn more and make sure it is a good fit for me.

Accepted a position in assurance instead. Anyone know if it's possible to reapply for FSR before I would start assurance with them next summer?

any idea about exit opps? would it be better to go for equity research? I actually want ibd and so I am looking at what will give me the best shot at it....

i interviewed last week for PwC and the research position is at Stifel Nicolaus....so they are kinda strong in that area i think. but my aim is IBD...i want to see which would lead it there more quickly..
