Hi all,
I’m based in India and trying to figure out the right path to move into global asset management or fund roles. Would really appreciate some honest advice from people who have made similar moves or work in global financial hubs.
Background:
- Around 3 years of buy-side equity research experience at a boutique PMS
- Cleared all levels of CFA
-Work has been largely qualitative. I focus on industry research, management assessment, building investment theses, and preparing pitch presentations
- Limited exposure to heavy financial modeling
Goal:
-Move into a global fund or asset management role
-Interested in macro and emerging markets over the long term
-Open to starting in equity research or asset management and transitioning toward macro roles
I am considering pursuing a master’s degree abroad to make this transition, but I am unsure what kind of program would be most suitable.
Some constraints:
- Cost is a major factor. I cannot spend excessively
-US and UK are quite expensive, so I am currently more inclined toward Canada
- I want a program that actually helps with recruiting into finance roles, not just academics
Questions:
- What type of program would be most relevant for my goals? MSc Finance, MFin, or something else?
- Given my background is more qualitative and less modeling-heavy, will that be a disadvantage when recruiting internationally?
- For someone targeting global finance roles, which locations and schools make the most sense within a reasonable budget?
- Has anyone from India or other international backgrounds made a similar transition into global funds or asset management? What path did you take?
Hi everyone,
I’m an Indian applicant trying to understand the Rotman MFin program better, and I’d really appreciate some honest insights.
My background:
- Buy-side equity research experience (India)
- Cleared all levels of CFA
- Work has been more qualitative - industry research, management assessment, building investment theses, and preparing pitch decks
-Limited exposure to heavy financial modeling / building detailed models
I am Interested in working at a global fund (ideally in macro / emerging markets)
I’ve been exploring global master’s programs to transition into a more international finance role, and Rotman came up as a strong option.
However, I’m a bit confused about the structure of the Rotman MFin. From what I understand, it’s a part-time program designed for working professionals (evening/weekend format?).
So I had a few questions:
- Is this program actually suitable for international students who are not already working in Canada?
- Would my Indian work experience count as “working professional” experience for admission?
- How do international students typically manage this program,do they already have jobs in Toronto before joining?
- Does the program help with recruiting into funds / asset management roles, or is it more for people already in the industry locally?
Would I be better off targeting other programs (like MSc Finance at McGill/UBC) if my goal is to break into global funds?
I’m trying to understand whether this is the right fit for someone in my position or if I’m misunderstanding the intent of the program.
Thanks in advance, would really appreciate any clarity from current students or alumni.
