Strategy @ Private Bank -> Major IB/AM -> Research at Macro HF
Currently working on a major LATAM-focused bank's Investment Strategy team that serves the private banking and AM arms. My goal coming out of my master's was to either get into a macro-focused research position or trading role at a major US bank, but I am here now haha (currently 24).
The work is interesting and my team is incredibly experienced, kind of in the tail end of their careers. We manage a credit and long-only equity portfolio for some private bank clients, now looking to start a multi-strategy portfolio which would allow more risk taking i.e. leverage. My goal for now is to ensure I can position myself to contribute to the new portfolio, have a few good ideas to my name, and then see where it goes from there.
For me the dream is to work at a single manager like Brevan Howard/Caxton/Rokos/Moore,e tc., just a pure macro-focused firm. However, the jump is more difficult considering my current position. Right now my goal is to get onto a rates/FX strategy desk at a major bank, or as a research analyst at a GMO/Wellington/GSAM and then hopefully transition.
Want to get a sanity check, any tips would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
