Investment Advisory Boutique-Research Analyst Salary + Bonus

I was curious if anyone had any information on salary and bonus expectations for a Research Analyst straight out of undergrad. The firm is a small investment boutique in Greenwich, CT about 10-20 people. Provides investment advisory services to Ultra High Net Worth individuals (minimum $5 million- average $25 million per client). Research Analyst does a lot of alternative investment research on hedge fund managers and private equity as well as global-macro environment research. Thanks!

Asset Management Mock Interview

“MarKus was great today and extremely helpful in preparing me for my HireVue tomorrow. He gave me really useful insight into the types of questions I may face, how to approach them, and how to structure my answers in a clear and convincing way. He also helped me understand what I should focus on to give myself the best chance of performing well. I genuinely feel that preparing for something like this completely on your own would be much more difficult, so I really appreciate the time and effort he put into helping me. He was also very kind, knowledgeable, approachable, and willing to answer all my questions. Overall, it was a 10/10 session for me.”

Asset Management Mock Interview

“Markus was extremely helpful throughout the session. He came prepared with the questions that have recently appeared in BlackRock’s European video interviews and explained what each question was actually assessing. Rather than giving only general advice, he listened carefully to my answers, identified where my framing could create the wrong impression, and demonstrated how to restructure them. His feedback on “Why Global Trading” was particularly valuable because he helped me present trading as a genuine interest in execution, liquidity and market impact, rather than simply an area I had not experienced before. He also distinguished professional motivation from personal drive and identified which answers needed the most work. His direct but encouraging approach made the session practical, personalised and immediately useful. I left with clear priorities, specific improvements to make and a much better understanding of how to prepare for my first HireVue interview.”
