Hi to all Finance Gurus! Hope I can get some valuable insights on my situation here. Currently I am working in a MNC doing Fund Accounting (specialize in Hedge Fund). But recently I got offered to be a Financial Analyst in a listed company that specialise in Coal Shipping. The jobscope require me to do cash flow projections, analyze some financial information and reports to produce forecasts of business, industry and prepare research findings reports, provide financial models for projects I got an offer but I need to take a pay cut of 20% to get it. I am very early into my career. Been working 2 years in Fund Accounting right after graduation. Well, can anyone here advise me on the prospect of Financial Analyst? Anyone here knows the progress path of a financial analyst? Would this job bring about a higher potential earning in the future and maybe put me in a better position to be a equity researcher or enter the IB? Thanks in advance!!
yes, higher earning potential on average.
In general, Corp finance is more in line with IB taskswise.
