In Reply To: Here are a few: 1. Product mgt/sales support 2. Compliance 3. Asset Mgt, working with PM (e.g. derivatives, analytics for PM) I'd rank #3 as best, then #1, then #2. Same with pay. Closer to the money (either sales or asset mgt is better). Avoid compliance or "oversight" roles.
Message: Thanks for the tips. Any ideas of what sort of timeframes, projects, or other activities would give a portfolio analyst the edge to get closer to asset mngt related work? Thanks.
