Which are the graduate schools that consistently produce the best global macro hedge fund managers?
Curious to know, there are no such a thing as formal rankings in this kind of topic so I would like to know the insights of this community, any contributions will be welcome. Thank you very much
Harvard, Penn state, and Samford
I heard Brazzers College rocks too...
University of Michigan.
Thank you very much, any outstanding examples please? Also what would make them more significant than Columbia, Harvard, Yale, Chicago or even UNC or Duke for example?? don't want to doubt about your standard at all but I would like to know a little more about your arguments in order to gain a better understanding of the general picture in which your placement is made, Regards.
It's where the GOAT went.
For UK, almost exclusively Oxford, Cambridge, and Imperial.
Thank you very much for your answer any outstanding examples please? Also intrigued by why the lack of LBS and LSE in your list. Regards
Best example is probably Brevan Howard's management team, which is very heavily Imperial, was founded by an Imperial guy (Alan Howard), and has very strong links with the College - hence recruiting pipeline. Imperial is, probably along with Cambridge (there's a fund called Cantab out of Cambridge that do some good work) the main source for quants in the UK and this feeds through to management. Oxford (Chris Rokos was a Brevan co-founder and Ox alum) and Cambridge also have "old money" connections and relatively strong quantitative PhD programmes so are well-represented.
LSE doesn't have as many strong quant-focused (no STEM) programmes, and the econ PhDs tend to go into academia or international development (kinda weird compared to UG). LBS doesn't really have many "academic" MSc/PhD options and therefore just generally less strong quant backgrounds that feed through into the top hedge funds. Would expect that even Warwick would be better for that, but can't think of any Warwick alumni managers off the top of my head.
hopefully this is a troll question
Fuck off
probably one of the dumbest questions I've ever seen on this site
Look retard if you really think so then just move on and go to the "most prestigious haircuts" section, I only had the crazy idea that I could ask some questions about the financial industry in a forum of the financial industry, nobody cares about how intelligent or interesting you think you are, GTFOH dude... 😂😂😂😂😂
Any school with a strong economics department. For prospective students take a look at schools that teach Money View...
