It’s marginally beneficial if you want to work at a fund of funds shop, but that’s about it. Go for the CFA.

No caia is seen as complementary. I believe having the cfa grants you caia level 1 automatically...if youre trying to get onto an investment team at a fund shop then cfa > caia without question

Would both the CFA and CAIA be overkill?

What about for somebody looking to go PE -> L / S or activist? (I actually have a consulting background and didn’t live the day-to-day grind of banking for 2 years).

There’s now a lawsuit in Texas challenging PREP. How much longer do y’all plan to live in the US? This is actually how I predicted this would unfold. That folks with moral objections would file a lawsuit like this, and then get it up to The Church for review, and then overturn Lawrence v Texas. This is just happening a lot faster than I thought.

JPMorgan Chase

JPMorgan Chase recently introduced a policy change to increase the notice period to 60 days. I'm a 602 and resigned recently and yet my LWD is showing up as 30 days from now. Anyone recently resigned can confirm if they are facing the same or new policy is in effect. This is causing confusion with the next companies I'm interviewing with.

I would like to hit fire between 40-50. Currently 27, 185k total comp (125 for me and 60 for partner). Like my job don’t hate it don’t love it. Does an MBA make sense?

Does anyone know the answer to this? - My first mortgage statement was generated on 11/2 with a due date of 12/1 and includes a month of interest based on the balance on 11/2.

I plan to do this every month.
