Do buy side firms hire from the sell side? I am a Market Risk Manager - how can I move to an asset manager or hedge fund? This is a question I get asked a lot and have supported a number of these moves. In short, Yes! but lets start with WHY? 😀 Better compensation 😀 More flexible working arrangements 😀 Often a better work life balance - not always though! 😀 More dynamic 😀 Less bureaucratic 😀 Less regulatory reporting 😀 Exposure to external clients 😀 Ex-ante analytics as opposed to just ex-post A couple of considerations: 👉 Hedge Funds tend to prefer Market Risk Managers from a bank due to a more technical and mathematical skill set often combined with stronger coding. 👉 Hedge Funds tend to hold their staff to non-compete which means hiring like for like is more challenging. 👉 Asset Managers usually prefer candidates from other asset managers - citing candidates from banks can find it challenging to get their head around the different approach - but not always! 👉 Hiring managers often have a pre-conceived idea as to the preference for their team - ask your recruiter! 👉If you have tried and are struggling to make an external move, try internally to get the experience and demonstrate capability. If you are in Market Risk and want to move into Investment Risk - get in touch! Happy to offer support and guidance.
