Investments or Research
My friend got 2 offers, both in Wealth Management.
One offer is to work in Investments with a Financial Advisor (Portfolio Management Division)
The other offer is to work in Equity Research (sell-side) of the Wealth Manager
She wants to eventually become a Lead Portfolio Manager of an equities fund...and she has been asking me as to which experience would better prepare her for a PM job in the future.
I would think Research being that most PM's come from a Research background.
If you could pick between Wealth Management Investments or Research, which would you pick?
Financial advisor is client facing, less analysis and more sales.
Equity research at a wm? is this a boutique? WM at bigger firms rarely have a equity research dept. They have equity/FI desks etc... to assist advisors. Some have small capital markets divisions to carry out activities for clients.
Equity research (if its legitimate) is defenitely the better choice.
