Portfolio construction team at a not-so-good shop.
Why would it be a not so good shop?
Merger arbitrage
Based on the most helpful WSO content, roles that might fit your description could be within the Portfolio Construction team at a not-so-top-tier shop or in Merger Arbitrage. These roles often require some coding knowledge for conducting calculations and portfolio optimization, but they may not necessarily require a strong background in statistics or mathematics. They also involve a lot of collaboration across teams and can provide high exposure to the deal process. However, the specifics can vary greatly depending on the firm and the exact role.
