Trying to leverage a background in product development, market sizing, and distribution research in the Asset/Wealth management space. Thought consulting would be a good area, but finding the level of research limited and projects in the space seem to be dominate by internal teams. Anyone have recommendations or work for internal research teams they’ve enjoyed. Trying to get a better understanding of the space overall.
