When bankers find God: the spiritual side of finance
Investment bankers and God don’t have a great history. Lloyd Blankfein was much maligned after famously claiming to be doing God’s work in a Sunday Times article of 2009. The Bible famously says rich men have as much chance of getting to heaven as camels have of squeezing through the eyes of needles. And more […]
It’s still tough for autistic people to break into finance
Quantitative hedge funds, derivatives desks and the programming teams of investment banks have supposedly long provided happy homes to people with autism, which are able to put their systematic mindsets to good use. However, the announcement from SAP that it intends to hire 640 people with autism to programme and test its products highlights an […]

Die sinkenden Vergütungen in der Branche stellen nach einer Umfrage von eFinancialCareers in den USA, Deutschland, England, Frankreich und dem Mittleren Osten mittlerweile den Hauptgrund für Stress bei der Arbeit dar.

Late Lunchtime Links: Secret ‘golden pitchbook’ gets public airing
A top secret ‘golden pitchbook’ dating back to Bear Stearns circa 1980 has surfaced on Buzzfeed. It is not a pitchbook in the M&A all-nighter sense of the term. It is a pitchbook in the sense of selling securities to retail clients – although it could equally be applied to selling anything to anyone, anywhere. Fundamentally, […]
Personalberatungsbranche erzielt Rekordumsatz: Anstieg aber nur noch schwach
Falls es nach einer neuen Studie des Bundesverbandes Deutscher Unternehmensberater (BDU) geht, müssten sich Headhunter hierzulande eigentlich fleißig die Hände reiben. Denn nach der Umfrage „Personalberatung in Deutschland 2012/13“ ist der Branchenumsatz um 3,6 Prozent auf 1,55 Mrd. Euro gestiegen, was ein neues Allzeithoch bedeutet. Damit hat sich das Wachstum der Branche allerdings deutlich verlangsamt. […]
Meet the ex-head of UBS credit trading prowling for the next Tumblr
Until March 2013, Damien Regent was a fairly typical investment banker. Up at dawn, he worked 12 hour days as UBS’s co-head of financial credit trading in London. Two months ago, all that changed. Unleashed from UBS following the bank’s decision to pull back from fixed income, Regent has reinvented himself as an angel investor. […]
Les financiers fâchés avec les réseaux sociaux professionnels
Utiliser les réseaux sociaux pour sa recherche d’emploi est devenu un geste a priori évident pour la plupart des professionnels aujourd’hui et surtout payant sur le plan professionnel. Ce n’est pas l’avis des profils financiers et comptables, si l’on en croit les dernières études de Page Personnel à ce sujet. Et pour cause : seuls 15% […]
Aging Bankers Turning to Booze and Bibles
Drinking and drugs are a young man’s game, unless you’re stressed out and working on Wall Street, apparently. Results of a new eFinancialCareers survey suggest that the longer you work in financial services, the more likely you are to rely on drugs and alcohol to manage stress. U.S. respondents were given 14 different options to […]
