This SpringBoard event provides you with insights into a (buy-side/ sell-side) analyst’s job. We have at least 5 analysts on the panel of both sell-side (Credit Suisse, Yuanta, BNP, Shinhan) and buy-side analysts from long-only funds, coming together from HK, Korea and Singapore to share their experiences and views, with Yo-man as the facilitator on the following talking points.
- How did you join the investment industry?
- How is your typical day like?
- What are your key activities on the job?
- What are the challenges you face/ who are your competitors?
- What do you feel is the most rewarding part of your job?
- Why do some analysts progress faster in their careers, compared to their colleagues/ competitors?
- How does a firm decide which analysts/ sales people to lay off first in the 2008 financial crisis?
- Have you ever regretted joining the investment industry, or what would you have done otherwise?
