  • čas pƙidĂĄn 30. 06. 2024
  • The buy side vs sell side differences are explained. This split in finance career options should be known by anybody looking to enter the fields of investment banking, private equity and more.
    I go over definitions of both the buy and the sell side, the market players, how they make money, and the career options in both sides. I also provide examples of company names in each. Lastly, I provide an example of the buy and sell side interacting using Tesla's expansion into the truck industry.

    Hi Kenji! Really enjoyed this video, was a very clear explanation of how both sides work. Was wondering if you have any thoughts on GPs vs LPs? i.e. How are the career paths different? Difference in compensation, etc

    Love this videos, thanks mate! For instance, from going from a Big4 to the buy side, would you say there are big difference from consulting vs assurance?

    • @KenjiExplains
      @KenjiExplains  Pƙed 2 lety +2

      Thanks! I'd say it's more common from Big4 deals advisory or management consulting. But the buy side is so large that there's probably a good number of opportunities for financial audit/assurance too

    Hey Kenji, Think thrice before you answer these...
    .Which one do you think is the best for exit oppurtunities into private equity ? (In Current Scenario & Future)
    1) M&A Analyst at Elite Boutique IB
    2) Leveraged Finance Analyst at Bulge Bracket IB ( Like J.P.M )
    3) Technology Analyst, who deals with [ all Product Groups at Bulge Bracket IB ] or Elite Boutique IB ( Like Qatalyst Partners )
    &
    .Which amongst above is best to stay permanently way until Director ?
    i.e The One which compensates most salary in case of permanent stay in IB.
    Please help me out with these two questions.

    Can you break into buy side like Private equity, asset management, hedge funds, especially after college if you have great communication skills? Other than great communication skills what else do you need like hard skills? Should I take up Financial edge courses?
    I was already doing CMA(USA) but kinda get interested into getting into buy side?

    • @KenjiExplains
      @KenjiExplains  Pƙed 2 lety +1

      Hey, communications skills are useful but for analytical roles they're not the top priority. Common skills in the buy side are financial modeling, corporate finance, accounting, and excel (also depends on how front-office your role is).
      If you don't feel confident with these skills, you can always check out some of the FE courses, or our courses as well: learn.careerprinciples.com/courses/finance-valuation-course

    Do you think it's still possible to move into investment banking?

    • @KenjiExplains

      Hey it’s hard to say without much information about your previous experience/education
what area of commercial banking are you in? Overall, it’s not a typical or easy move but if you know the right people in IB anything is possible

      In BB M&A you're advising for a client, while in PE you're executing the deal with PE funds money. So quite different dynamic when you're an advisor or a buyer
