State Street - Portfolio & Risk Analytics (Investment Analytics), Is It A Good Opportunity? Your Opinions Thanks.

As the title goes, I got the AVP offer in the Portfolio & Risk Analytics Group in their SS Global Exchange Division. I am currently doing no-name work (market risk, model review & monitoring) in the risk function at a bank. The package at SS will be about 20% bump up from my current one. However, I will be in the Liquidity Risk Team, not the more desirable Enterprise Risk Management Team.

See their website: https://www.statestreet.com/solutions/by-capabili…

My long term goal is (portfolio construction, quantitative research in macro-strategies, multi-asset solutions) in asset management.

Now the question, is this a good one? Warrants a jump? Thanks.

if you don’t love your current gig gtfo. 20% jump justifies it in itself.

Thanks for your reply. Even though the learning curve has flattened a lot inthe current role, it is not yet to the extent of hating it. I would be lying if I say I still love it as I used to when the learning curve was steep... However, given my long term goal is as above, I am worried more about the opportunity cost if I take the SS role. Not the type of person who would jump ship 1 year in a role :(

 

I interned in SSGA (AM Arm) one summer. If you want the bigger name on your resume + pay jump, go for it. Be warned though, GX is seen as a pretty useless division, only one that doesn’t generate any revenue. You won’t be able to sniff a dollar, all it is, is a tech platform. The culture when I was there was terrible, most people just wanted to leave
