Supposedly it is for an analyst position within the Green Package Services team (GPS) whose responsibilities include understanding risk analytics on our fixed income, equity and alternatives products to help our clients and portfolio managers understand their portfolio exposures, strategy, risk and returns. It says it will give extensive training and development, so can I expect some really technical questions. I'm a little rusty on my finance, any good articles/books to read to prep. Any help is much appreciated and thank you for any help

Yeah it's in Wilimington. It does seem back office supporting their risk reporting technology, but it says to have an understanding of different types of investments, I'm just wondering how much of it will be technical. Like different investment strategies (spreads, straddles). I'm leaning towards no, just because the software figures out most of that for you,

Hey there, sorry to bring this old thread back up, but I am wondering if you accepted the GPAS offer and worked there last summer. I am very interested in how your experience was there.

Hi,
