Buy Side HK vs Sell Side LONDON
Hi guys,
i am from a top tier school in the UK and would ultimately like to stay in the UK. but the graduate job market has been pretty competitive and i ended up only with 1 offer in the UK. well i would like to stay in the UK and get a few years worth of experience before heading back to asia but it seems that the buyside gig sounds more interesting and perhaps has greater exit opps than sellside research.
I recently got 2 offers
2nd Tier MM Bank, London, Economics/FI/FX Research (rotational programme), salary of GBP41k + 7k signon
2nd Tier Buyside gig, Hong Kong, investment research associate, salary ~28k GBP base and maybe bonus?
Which do you think would be better?
youre from a top tier uk school and youre willing to settle for 28k and maybe a bonus? that doesnt sound lucrative at all, might as well go clean toilets or work at mcdonalds for that.
Well 28kGBP, after conversion is actually quite an average salary in Hong Kong + taxes are much lower. Some have said that starting salary does not matter.
But if I could perhaps move onto better exit opportunities later with the buyside gig? no?
