I know a few PM’s at my shop (MM LO AM) who came from DCM. Could come in as a credit analyst although you’d lack fundemental experience.

Also could easily become a product specialist and specialise in selling that firms credit funds (HY/IG or whatever).

WLB is generally quite good in these roles too and you have a perfect background for it.

 

Sorry I’m based in London so probably different. Maybe you can come London/ Europe as an EM Debt analyst?

How is a DCM background helpful in moving to FIG M&A?

Common move, you are dealing with same clients
