Any recommendations on what good courses I can take?

Strategic fit, positioning, synergies

OP - would need to know more about what you’re working on to even say if you’d ever write “a research paper”. Strategic fit is a determination made by a company’s management team before starting a buy/sell process. You could potentially be involved in a pitch where there’s a page or two highlighting strategic fit, and the future “positioning” of the company as a result of such acquisition, divestiture, etc.

Asking for wife who's also in banking. If she got ~$100k in signing bonus in 2019 for 1 year commitment in CA and started FT in July 2020, assuming she leaves before July 2021, can her employer claw back full amount in California? Some say it's much tougher to do so under CA law but wonder if anyone has any insights. Banks won't likely care about analyst signing bonuses, but associate bonus at EB with diversity bonus can be significant. If she quits before, she won't be going to another bank.
