risk management, although good risk management at say.. DB or JPM are very hard to get in and they only recruit at target schools

Since when has risk management been hard to get in? I went to a target and I don't remember seeing too many risk-management roles. I do know they earn the same base that we do and work half the hours. Bastards.

 

risk has always been the ugly brother of FO roles such banking or trading. it has its perks such as better hours and less demanding work, but the bonus is almost nill and base is comparable. also, if shit hits the fan, it's usually the risk manager that gets fucked.

now if you are talking about actuary, that work is pretty boring, but the pay is quite a bit higher than risk especially since pay is to a large extent determined by how many actuarial exams you've passed.

 

Answers to questions above:

1) No it does not. 2) They will require some basic finance/econ skills which you can easily learn by yourself 3) The big four, Milliman & Towers Perrin (as far as client base goes)

The pay starts off with 60K usually, but I believe future earnings typically follow the accounting pay trajectory (Big 4).
