Switching between Trading and Risk Management

Since your question was totally obscure, I thought the only constructive contribution I could make was to comment the quality of your english skills. I'll bet a grand you're not a native speaker, my random guess would be you're from France.

Goldman Sachs Special Investments Group

The name of the group is fancy but in fact, what they do is market funds managed by Goldman Sachs (such as their Global Alpha fund) to high net worth individuals. So it is a marketting goup, not a trading group.

UChicago, Courant, and CMU

QuoteOriginally posted by: rambo900oh yeah, more than 90% of the current Courant students want a trading jobAgain, is this based on actual data, or you're just trying to guess? If it is not based on actual data, you might as well not mislead people with speculative guesses based on hearsay
