Multi Asset Solutions is a Dead-End!
Sorry for the dramatic title:
I completed a AM Multi Asset solutions internship and I didn’t like it. The team was amazing but I was looking for something more technical/quantitative. I became interested in the fixed income team but was too scared to ask for the transfer.
Will it be possible to switch to a FI role after the two year period?
Will I have to take a step back because I’d likely not have the quantitative skills?
What does a career in asset allocation look like?
Thanks

Is this BlackRock?
What made it obvious? But yes.
I've been part of the firm in the past. The whole post just sounded familiar. I would say BLK has decent mobility especially after a year or two. As long as you have good feedback from your current managers and show passion in the switch I don't think it would be too difficult. I wouldn't make it apparent the second you hit the desk but slowly network and show interest as your 6-8 months into your stint. (Unless MASS has a fixed 2 year program like the other divisions).
Best of luck.
Hi - sorry to bump the thread. I have an offer from them; half my role would be systematic active equities focusing on ESG mandates (working on algos/capturing ESG signals (not a particular focus on alpha though) and harnessing research from the Sustainable Investing research), so a lot of Python coding, and the other half would be portfolio construction/TAA/SAA type stuff with risk budgeting. Is this what you are familiar with? I made a separate thread to ask about exit opps on this and was hoping you could help.

What does job entail?
Bumping this - I have an offer from them. What did you not enjoy?
