how feasible is it to jump from insurance investment management to large asset managers (PIMCO, Capital Group, etc)
Does it matter if the context is pre-mba or post-mba? Are there certain asset classes one should focus on to have a better shot at exiting into large asset managers?
LOL yeah this isn't happening
No one in equities would take a second look at an insurance guy, maybe FI is different
Yes, FI is very different. Have seen it done many times in FI though caveat being generally not directly to a PIMCO/Capital, but instead say more middle tier LO and occasionally a Blackrock/TRowe. No reason though why one couldn't make it to a PIMCO after an interim step as have seen people make it to Wellington/Fidelity after an interim stop. Have seen this both pre and post MBA though the switch during MBA is smoother. As above poster alludes to avoid equities because they are a rounding error for most insurers (if not for the throwaway fixed income reference their info would be pure misinformation for the median insurance experience). The more niche/higher beta the fixed income asset class the better chance/the more senior the position. I.e. an IG PM could likely make the switch, but a leveraged loans analyst would have a better shot than and IG credit analyst for example
