If you develop a good rep in the fund space you can do exceptionally well, alternatives generally pay better. However it’s more specialized (naturally) with fewer seats.

EY Yes there is heavy outsourcing in the admin space, and that’s been the standard for the last 18 years or so. I’m speaking towards in-house roles, who are the people doing the actual controlling, which is a small world professionally. Last thing - when you throw BO around like it’s a scarlet letter it’s the number one sign you are just regurgitating things you are reading on forums. You can do very well, and fund controllers are generally paid better than their corporate counterparts.

I’m a closeted no book reader. I’ve maybe read 5 books over the last 10 years… My teams over the years are always talking about all the books they read and providing recommendations, but luckily people tend to be more interested in sharing what they read rather than listening so I’ve made it this far. I’m worried I’ll be discovered one day
