    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
  • One rotation (4 weeks) on credit flow trading, I learnt a lot about credit, need to send the notes of morning meeting every day and to send midday comments (comments from traders of their morning activity) everyday before 2pm. I also had trade ideas to do. My second rotation was on client analytics in prime brokerage, I had a python project to do to analyse client trades and behavior with a presentation at the end.


    Skills

  • 2. Have you learnt any new skills, or developed your existing skills?
  • I developed my existing analytical and coding skills with my project in my second rotation. I also improve my social and networking skills when I was shadowing people. I improve my « creativity and thinking » skills with trade ideas.
