The investor team manages the portfolios (both discretionary and non-discretionary) of Private Banking clients across a range of products (equities, fixed income, foreign exchange, derivatives, structured products, alternative investments and private equity).
It says a lot but without substances like do they actually have controls over the investment portfolios or just merely conduct product pitches.
And what's the salary is at compared to those at AM.
At a comparable BB PB - There are some Investors on my team that cover Legacy PB (think very old, very wealthy families $250MM+) accounts with custom mandates where they are the literal discretionary portfolio manager. This is getting rarer and rarer as PB tries to compete on compressed fees across the street.
For the most part though, it is product pitches for the CIO office, or other separately managed accounts with focused investment strategies.
So their roles are similar to Product/Investment specialists without actually managing the portfolios.
Thx!
I wouldn't call them product specialists - that would be more along the lines of someone working on the mortgage team, alternative investments team, equities team, etc.
I believe in the JPM PB "Investor" is synonymous with "Investment Specialist." Think about their role as the holistic portfolio manager - they take the reigns on the overall asset allocation of the individuals balance sheet. This can get confusing given the nomenclature, but the Investment Specialist will pitch funds and strategies to get the client to the overall allocation/risk spectrum that they think is suitable.
Ex. would be pitching a Large Cap Equity fund as a chunk of the client's overall equity allocation - the Investment Specialist is not the one making trades WITHIN the LC Equity portfolio as the strategy has its own PM.
Damn prospects are getting smarter and smarter
