BofA IBD OR Man Group Investment Management Summer Internship London

Hi everyone, I would be appreciated to receive any advice on choosing between the two London summer internships: 1. BofA IBD; 2. Man Group Investment Management.

These are two wildly different experiences. It depends entirely on what you want, but the IBD job is certainly more coveted with less risk associated with potential comp upside. It will grind you to dust, though, and the WM job probably won't.

 

Man Group is a hedge fund no? Don’t think it’s markedly less coveted, but yes it really just depends on what you want. If you want to do public markets investing do Man Group, if you don’t/want optionality do IB

 

Do IBD, Man group’s program is rotational IIRC and there’s no guarantee you get an investing seat at the end. Additionally outside of macro and quant strategies they’re eh; so assuming you want to do L/S equity it’s not a great spot and BAML will set you up for better hedge fund seats.
