Odd question: Monetising Arabic/Persian fluency
Going to be joining a podshop grad-scheme out of school, which I'm pretty happy about. However, in school I spent a good deal learning Arabic and Persian, which I really enjoyed. Was wondering if anyone has heard about ways to monetize this skill in industry.
I don’t think this is going help you build EBIT bridges

Cool skill for sure! Most obvious sector angles I've seen on the sellside and the buyside for people who speak & read Persian, Russian, Arabic has been in energy/commodities (MENA crude flows, shipping patterns). Key is finding PMs who trade themes where this knowledge actually creates edge rather than just being an interesting skill. I guess it could be spun as synthesizing primary sources when market relies on translations, building relationships with regional management teams across the value chain, monitoring local media for market-moving developments. I'd imagine there's material lag between publication and information dissemination hitting the tape.
