Everyones take on IDB, ICAP in particular

I have an interview for an ICAP SA position next week and was kind of curious where everyone thinks the business is going. I know that it seems like the future is limited, but what are everyone thoughts on the industry?

suggest you ask them how their Singapore office is going haha. (do a search on bloomy lots of hot topic there...)

otherwise you need to demonstrate you are very good at drinking. I'm 100% serious, job of broker is after 5pm to take traders out and how much you can drink.
