What does "Investments" Mean?

okay, before you start laughing, hear me out. So I am close to someone who is a senior vice president of Investments for UBS financial services...what does this entail? Is it related to investment banking or just like PWM? I want to know because I want to ask him various questions but don't want to seem like a dimwit for not knowing what he is doing...thanks.

theo4487PWM with at least $300 - $400K in gross revenues. You can estimate that he manages around $25-35 Million with those kinds of numbers.
I wonder how much he gets to take home?
 

Give or take a few points, 40% - 42% pre-tax income from gross revenues is the industry average. It all depends on his business model (fee-based business or transactional stock jock/muni junkie). Transactional could be higher, but still usually falls within that range.

His revenues could be higher. Usually the minimum for the title is $400,000 gross revenue, but he could be doing $1 Million in revenue and still have that title.

 

Sed nesciunt error aspernatur esse sit. Ratione vero ut aut incidunt. Voluptatibus provident dolorem eum fugiat. Eos nisi velit provident totam quisquam omnis.
