Hi all,
Recently started in IB ops, but my goal is to be an IBanker in Paper & Forest Products. I have industry experience & contacts in P&FP and want to stay connected to the industry.

Questions:
1) MBA needed for internal move?
2) Top banks for P&FP coverage?
3) Good P&FP IB opps outside NYC (prefer Carolinas)?

Thanks!

I don’t have insight into P&FP groups but people have moved from back office to front office without MBA - it’s hard but not uncommon. Focus on networking and being by far the best in your group at your position
