Acquisitions Underwriter vs. Acquisitions Analyst

I'm currently interviewing for a position as an acquisitions underwriter.  Doesn't this role have similar responsibilities as an acquisitions analyst?  The company I'm interviewing for has both positions, and I'm not quite sure what the difference is.

Typically the same thing

If they are both the same, why have different titles? Acquisitions associate definitely sounds much better than acquisitions underwriter.

 

You did not say acquisitions associate in your original post, "I'm currently interviewing for a position as an acquisitions underwriter.  Doesn't this role have similar responsibilities as an acquisitions analyst?"
