How possible is it to do a target MBA and become an IBD MBA Associate after Risk Management at a BB (and a target undergrad in the UK with a First Class GPA (4.0)? How well/poorly is risk regarded by front office folks?
Hi folks,
I am a first year analyst at of the BBs in London after not getting any offers in IBD, it was a tough job market last year. I also did an internship in Operations at another BB. My plan is to do an MBA in 2 years time at LBS/Oxbridge or at a top US one, and I am also preparing for my Level I CFA. I would also not be against working in investment management/private banking/asset management etc. What are my best exit ops? How do FO people view the middle office (particularly positions such as market or credit risk)? Is it somehow an opportunity (i.e., someone who would potentially have worked in all three offices) or a black mark that I should remove from my CV as soon as I get into the FO? I would also not mind to come back to the middle office in the future at a more senior position.
Thanks for the advice and support :)
