Nice explanation.but I guess it is also very important that one have an idea about the market and what asset management is as these will bring about converting of information and easy understanding .
Very important fact,these make the channel and the market strategies easy and can be easily captured it can be the main step towards understanding assets management
Most beginners make these mistakes a lot.maybe because of inadequate information or misuse of information and these can lead to crashing or losses too huge to bear. therefore proper guidance should be considered too
Ignorance should not be an excuse as a business person. Gather proper and adequate information about whatever business you want to venture into and dedicate time to understanding the guidelines well.
Sincerely I have seen people making these similar mistakes of not being well equipped about their plans before taking them up,you have to make more research , relate with a good mentor and explore well the benefits and possible losses before taking up any plan(s)
It could be disastrous as a beginner not understanding asset management well before having a plan. I have carefully analyzed the comments here and sincerely it is the best idea and advice. I am successful in asset management thanks to BIANCA HARLEY DORAN who is always there to guide through any process
Afzal it would be nice to hear your application journey when applying for internships! Like the rejections you got, the interviews you got, the places you’ve applied to and what you learned about the application process.
Thank you for the great video!!) Really appreciate your effort! Could you please make a video about technical skills to one’s who wants to apply for investment division in asset management?) Good edited video by the way! Thanks in advance !)
In this video I cover the 5 things that I really enjoyed about working in asset management within an investment bank. I spent a few years working at Goldman Sachs Asset Management, both as an intern during my second year of university and after I graduated, in London. I touch on things such as work / life balance, compensation, client interaction, the people, the nature of the work, and more. Let me know in the comments which area or industry, regardless of whether it's banking, finance, asset management related or not, you want to break into and what video you’d like to see next. Thanks for passing by, enjoy!
Afzal your channel has become my favorite channel in such a short time! I’m getting my MSF right now. I want to work in Asset Management. Any thoughts on BlackRock?
Hey Afzal, Again a great video! I was curious, could you make a video about the big-4 firms? For example: What is the difference between the M&A departments of Investment Banks and Big-4 offices. Best wishes for 2021!
@Afzal could you make a video on the important technical and soft skills required for various divisions in Investment Banks and best place to learn and practice these skills.
Hi Afzal. Thank you for all the insight. I was wondering if you could answer a quick question. I'm in my second year of uni at a non-target Russel group studying Economics and Finance. For various reasons, I didn't get any experience in first year in regards to insight weeks or open days etc. I've applied to a few internships for this summer and will continue to do so but I feel it's highly unlikely I'll get onr with the experience I have. Does this mean it's very unlikely I can break into asset management? What would you recommend I do in this situation to try and salvage this? Thanks again for all the insight Afzal.
Hi I’m currently studying Act Science and I’m torn between getting into AM and M&A.Which pays more and which one would make a CV more robust in terms of applying to PE firms after taking the ib analyst route?
Hi Afzal, Can you please make a video on Global Transactions Banking or better still compare work-life balance in Asset management with that of Global Transactions Banking? Thank you!
Hi Azfal. Big fan I'm a student very interested in the high finance (HF/AM/IB) scene, with a large interest in working with the capital markets. However, as a finance major I lack the advanced math and programming knowledge that is becoming more frequent in those careers. Do you see someone without advanced math/programming knowledge having a good shot at breaking into hf/am/ib? If not, what careers would you recommend that would not have a advanced/coding prerequisite.
Hii, i have a quastion. I know that for Investment Banking or private equity, financial modelling and valuation skill is very helpful But will it help for asset management or hedge funds or private wealth management devisions? I am thinking to learn financial modelling and valuation, and my main tartget is asset management devision. But if i will get chance i will go into investment banking or private equity. So, it helps in that devisions?
How is asset management different from a hedge fund or a PE fund? How do you make money off of the clients? Do you assume any risk yourself (as an institution)? When you pitch clients do you just talk about your past performance or do you present specific investment strategies the market/research guys have come up with?
Whenever people discuss work life balance they talk about daily working hours. They never talk about PTO or sick days. I couldn't find a video on this but would love to know if people even feel comfortable enough to take PTO and what that looks like.

Hi Afzal, at 22 what would you do after failing second year at university? Would you jump into work and some sort of accreditation to break into finance or would you still go to university or change course or something ?
Talking about assets and roles is a good thing anytime. At the same timebo need to understand the different techniques and strategies that lead to very successful trade gains. So one should at least learn the primary knowledge of asset management.
Crystal clear! information like this is very important. Things don't just happen but effort, dedication, willingness and appropriate strategies will surely lead to huge success
Hi afzal I am a computer science student but i have realized that i am made for management and business studies rather than Computer Science... I am planning to go for an mba right after my graduation..pls do reply and advice regarding the same.!! Btw great content

Hey, it would be nice to hear any tips you might have for international students or immigrants trying to break into am/ib/pe etc
Hey Afzal, what are salaries and bonuses like in client management/distribution roles in IB Asset Managers and pure plays?
How do you keep up to date with current affairs in the industry seeing as you are no longer part of it and the pace of change is fast?
Hey Afzal, if you had to do it all over again, which front office division(s) would you choose?
Can you be hired from asset management/ S&T into PE as an associate? Typically don’t PE firms hire from the IBD?

What ended up happening?
@@thesnackbandit bank never ever asked for the degree lol
Hi Afzal. I'm a final year student in investment management. In the long run, would you say that obtaining a CFA qualification is worth it?
Yes cfa is very valuable
Definitely, if you see yourself in the world of fund management over the long-term.

What are the exit opportunities of asset management when compared to investment banking
Great Question!!
Probably Hedge funds, Private equity, Venture capital, proprietary trading firms ?
Great content! Video on blockchain please :)

Crystal clear! information like this is very important. Things don't just happen but effort, dedication, willingness and appropriate strategies will surely lead to huge success
I know so many things can make one fail in asset management or trade as a whole.but nevertheless as a beginner one need the appropriate tools to use
Seriously it is really advisable to have a good foundation and base
Very educative, topics like this don't come every day so one should make the best out of it.
Wow.very nice stuff but i guess a professional guidelines is simply the best and with someone like BIANCA HARLEY DORAN it will be far easy to adopt
5 thing u don’t like ab AM?
Hi Afzal 👌🏽

You are my role model, inspired by you, I got enrolled into the CFA program. Are you a Bengali? Just a doubt I had about you.
