A lot of discussion on this forum about lack of exit options from PWM. I thought it would be helpful to share an alternative opinion. From my experience and that of many of my peers, I felt that people who worked at BBs with a lot of brand power (predominantly MS/JPM/GS) pivoted to a pretty wide variety of roles because they weren't able to successfully build a book of business. People I know that have made the switch have gone PE/VC, to various IR roles in alternatives, and to what I would call pretty high paying BD roles at start ups and fast growing companies.
Curious about other people's experiences and obviously do not hesitate to tell me why you think I'm wrong.
Hi aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa, check out these threads:
More suggestions...
If those topics were completely useless, don't blame me, blame my programmers...
I’ve gotten hit up from recruiters on multiple alts IR/cap raise roles.
Not leaving PWM but more evidence to your point. Unlikely to land investment office role on buy side though. I know one guy who went to a pension fund other than that haven’t heard of anything else.
How in the world did they go to PE/VC?
the only realistic exits are Investor Relations, & capital markets. Realistically, while you can make alot of money in PWM the exits are by far the weakest aspect of the role. Most of the skills do not directly transfer.
