Fixed income trading vs ER. Which pays more?
I have an opportunity for both in ER and FI trading. I wanted to know which one pays more and has a better exit opportunity. My ultimate goal is to get into IB.

Career Resources
100% equity research. Transferable skills to IB from a modeling and company analysis perspective. FI far less transferable skills.
Are they any skills you can carry over from FI to IB?
Thanks 🙏
