Guggenheim Investments

Hi All,

We see a lot of talk about Gugg securities but not investments (the last post I could find was from 2014). Was wondering if anyone had insights on them?

What exactly do they do? Direct investments into securities? (looks like they do FI, equities, and alternatives) Investments into other funds?

When do they typically hire? Directly after school? After an IB or AM stint? 

Is everyone in LA? What's culture like?

Any insight into any of these questions would be really appreciated! Thanks
