Interesting overview of asset management business

Pros

Its interesting to see how the actual system of a big asset manager works. It really helps in creating a mental map of banking landscape. It makes a nice internship but nightmarish job - only department that might be worth it are brokers.

Cons

Very political Brussels branch is preparing for the big move to India Have to rely on Indian teams - everything takes ages Lack of opportunities for career development - ambitious people take the job as a transit station others just as a way to get paid for 9-5 work.
