Lateral to Hong Kong after SA

Hi guys,

I'll be interning in a LevFin group in the US over the summer. Recently I've been thinking about my options due to some personal reasons and therefore wanted to find out if it's still possible to move to Hong Kong after my summer internship program.

Thank you!

Edit: I do speak Chinese.

Don't have much info on HK so take it for its worth, but I heard moving from major US office -> HK/SG is easier than vice versa. Although I'm not sure LevFin groups are as big in HK as it here. You should probably ask around the office and look at what situations are like on the other side. You could also definitely lateral to HK after spending 1,2 years FT in the US.

 

should be possible if you're in a BB though make sure to raise this early on in your internship, as the FT class might be finalized earlier in HK than in US also would help if you network with relevant team in HK
