Does anyone have an experience transitioning from fund management (specifically structured products/capital markets) to project management? I was looking at scrum/PMP certifications to put me in more of a leadership role. quite frankly I’m burnt out managing client funds.

Try UBS and specifically their Consulting roles. Seems like they are very open to taking in people from everywhere. It’s not exactly a project manager, but it’s a step in that direction. You work on many projects with project managers and business analysts. I’m doing the exact same thing you are.

You could def leverage that experience and move into consulting. KPMG has a capital markets advisory practice where your experience would be valuable. Both scrum and PMP certs are worthwhile
