@firmscope.co: When students think about asset management careers in London, the conversation often gravitates towards the biggest names and the most visible graduate schemes. But asset management isn’t one homogeneous industry. There are investment firms specialising in different asset classes, strategies and markets. That can include equity managers, credit specialists, multi-asset firms, alternatives managers and smaller specialist investment boutiques. So instead of beginning your entire asset management internship search with advertised vacancies, there’s another useful question to ask first: Which asset managers actually exist? Then you can research what they invest in, understand their strategy, narrow down the firms relevant to your interests and build a much more deliberate target list. That doesn’t mean every smaller asset manager offers internships, is currently hiring or will respond to outreach. The point is that the visible graduate recruitment market isn’t necessarily the same thing as the entire asset management market. FirmScope maps every boutique, reachable asset manager, alongside investment banks, private equity firms, venture capital firms, consultancies and corporate law firms, with contacts, filters including firm focus, headcount and strategy, and more. If you want to work in investing, learn who is actually investing. #assetmanagement #financestudents #financetok #careeropportunities #quantfinance
