Ranking of asset management firms (not AUM)?
Obviously it's easy to rank AM firms in terms of their AUM which gives a glimpse into their standing, but how would you rank them in terms of their exit opportunities and overall prestige?
a bit harder to do across all asset classes but i'm speaking generally
Hey bigiro3651, I'm here to break the silence...any of these links help you?:
More suggestions...
You're welcome.
This is like, insanely subjective. This is more of a personal list of how I see it and is definitely biased but here goes?
T1 - Superior rep across multiple asset classes, big names
Fidelity, Wellington, BlackRock
T2 - big names, great performance in their core asset class
CapGroup for Equities, PIMCO for FI
T3- maybe not big names, but well known in their class/strategy and still incredibly prestigious names to have on your resume
DoubleLine for FI, Alger for Equities
Sometimes roles at a T3 are just as good as T2 or T1. It isn't remotely like consulting where there is a mostly agreed upon hierarchy of firms. And for an example, if you want to do fixed income, completely disregard the tiers because a place like PIMCO is considered one of THE places to be if not arguably the most prestigious FI firm.
How would MFS fit into this ranking criteria?
MFS is great and in a great city (Boston). They created the first mutual fund and are considered a major player.
I'd put them at 2 and reclass CapGroup and PIMCO as 1.5 now that I think about it.
That said - AM IS NOT IB OR CONSULTING. A firm can be smaller AUM and less known name, and still be incredibly prestigious and MFS fits that bill.
Which asset class do they perform better in FI or Equities?
also heard they have a quant team, are they good?
