Pivoting to Trading from an ESG role?
Hi there, 32M working for a quite big asset manager in London.
Education: BA from non target in Italy, MSc Economics from Bocconi University, and another MSc in finance from Lancaster University.
Experience: 5 years working in the ESG space, particularly doing sovereign ESG research mainly for our emerging markets public fixed income funds.
I am looking to pivot to a role that’s closer to the investment process and the markets.
Would you say I still have chances to break into trading? I would like to leverage my background in macroeconomics and sovereigns and I thought that trading (FX, derivatives, etc.) would be a good place to work, where I could add value.
Do you have any suggestions on how to do the transition? I doubt that a cold application from the portal will suffice. But I am not sure who and where I should network. And whether anything like an online course or a side-project might boost my chances.
Any advice would be much appreciated.
