Risk Management seeking for Equity Research industry

Currently working in risk management in a commercial banking, looks for equity research, but not sure if my background(studied Econ) would be a fit for this industry and how to prepare myself for this.. Also through talking to people, most of them say it is a shrinking industry, wondering if i could have some advice on this.
