Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
Rotation 1: PB RM. As an intern mainly researched about the role: what clients do they have, what is their role. Shadowed and met many people in PB to get a better understanding of the role.
Rotation 2: Equity Research. Helped to build a new report for the research department. This included Bloomberg research and data extraction, forming models, deep dives into specific part of the industry, excel. Also helped with client newspapers and sat into client meetings and results sessions.
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
For RM not much responsibility. Little interaction with actual desk work.
For research lots of responsibility. Helping to build the actual reports and models used on the desk, interacting with clients, working with the team to problem solve real issues on desk.
