Exit opportunities from big traditional asset manager?

What are the exit opportunities for someone with 1-3 years experience as an equities analyst at a well known, big (>$500bn AUM) asset management firm?

Finding my current role over the past couple of years very slow-paced and dull so thinking about changing. How easy is it to get to PE/Hedge fund/Boutique from here? No IB/sell-side experience whatsoever, based in London.
