I got the Logitech MX mechanical keyboard with brown switches. Very comfortable to type on and not too loud

Are you trying to be a streamer? You don't need an obnoxiously loud keyboard with rainbow RGB lights.

Best to go to a local shop and try them out and see what you like. I prefer a more tactile click when I press the keys, but modified mine to be very quiet despite having my own office. 

Would recommend getting a full size board for excel wizardry, plus a mouse that actually fits your hand properly.

Honestly, It's not that great for typing. I am not a fan of those low profile switches.  The dedicated keys are nice, but you can just get stickers for a regular keyboard and have the same functionality.  Some might say "But the fingerprint reader!"  Honestly, it SUCKS. I'd regularly have to take about ten swipes and need to re-enter my credentials twice when my hands were sweaty from the subway.  The phone app, which uses the phone's built-in fingerprint reader is 10x better.

The only difference between Asset Management and Investment Research is assets. I generally see somebody I know on TV on Bloomberg/CNBC etc. once or twice a week. This sounds cool, until I remind myself that I see somebody I know on ESPN five days a week.

IBM model M. White label. Clickykeyboards sells refurbished. Not cheap, but the one and only, IMO.

They're pretty loud.  I'm not disagreeing that they're great keyboards, but you really want a quiet keyboard in the office.  If the entire floor can hear you typing, you're going to annoy people.
