Indexing PMs aren’t really the same type of PM since you don’t bring alpha just track an index and manage taxes. Equity or FI is just whichever you are more interested in…

Agree with GS 1. Index will likely feel operational rather than being on the cutting-edge of investment due diligence. Comes down to whether you like stocks or bonds better.

Work life balance in FI tends to be a little better. +1 on alpha comment in regards to index fund vs active/fundamental equity.

Which of the products are you interested in learning about? Also, salary should be the same or very similar.

I’ll say fundamental would be a good one as opposed to FI. Just my opinion
