Where do you think citco get their clients from? lol

In any case, most of the folks i know working in citco want to break into AM/PEs line and to be directly doing investment management / advisory work.

Nothing wrong for them doing that... but reality is harsh. This is equivalent to someone doing clearing/settlement ops, thinking the skill sets would be transferable to, say- sales and trading...

That aside, pay at citco is rather okay (i think 3k for freshies?)? Located at CBP with cheap food around (bedok hawker,etc).. I would say it is a ideal place for those who are looking for a relaxing place to settle down.
