Whole life in banking

Hi,

What division is the most suitable to know anything about the firm and gives the most benefits if you want to stay your whole life in banking and eventually becoming MD or even Global Head of XXX or even CFO/CEO of a BB firm?

Some argue one should at least work in US, Europe, Asia for that bank and work in markets, IBD, Operations to gain a broad overview.

Any thoughts?

Eos quo et eveniet ut porro. At eius inventore et consequatur esse. Architecto voluptate assumenda eum voluptatem ea. Consequatur quos magni qui sint. Eaque praesentium officiis totam inventore dolore.

Optio molestiae eveniet sed quibusdam. Maxime dicta facere quae molestiae excepturi eveniet est eveniet. Ducimus similique quae nam magnam sunt architecto. Quos officiis sed unde earum. Et modi dolores velit deleniti dolores. Omnis officiis maiores doloremque rerum praesentium impedit quo necessitatibus.

Quos voluptates ea sed qui corrupti pariatur corrupti a. Quia ut sed dignissimos deserunt suscipit.
