You'd likely be focused on bringing new products to market and managing existing ones.

在实践中的含义会有所不同,但是一个例子可能是评估新战略启动或对您现有资金定价进行竞争分析的需求/可行性。资产收集对于资产管理人员非常重要,因此您开始看到专门的团队试图优化公司为市场带来的产品套件。

显然,这不是投资席位,但是您对收入的贡献有很大的看法,这是关键。

Product Management will vary to some extent from shop to shop, but a few of the things I've seen product guys do include:

  • Generating/developing thought leadership/marketing materials to make a product look good. E.g. "Why 2021 is a great time to beinvesting in Equity Value"
  • 举行会议向投资者推销产品(通常在PMS/投资人员忙碌和/或会议并不那么重要时)
  • Acting as a technical salesperson that (per the above), sits somewhere between marketing and the investment team.
  • 与投资人员一起回答与客户/潜在客户询问的产品有关的技术问题(例如,本月投资组合减肥技术为何)。

Ravena hit the nail on the head that there's also a degree of competitor analysis/assessing the viability of new and existing products.

Product sits in a bit of a weird no mans land. The upside is that you tend to get a lot of leeway to try and add value, however at the same time, they tend to be very unstructured roles that have fairly fuzzy responsibilities.

如果你喜欢的人itiative and you have a reasonable technical knowledge, it can be a very visible role that lets you interact with a lot of interesting people. It also tends to have a pretty good work life balance and is a lot less eat what you kill then straight marketing/sales. However, if you're the kind of person that isn't always organized and/or motivated, you'll probably find the unstructured nature of the role pretty tough.

A bit like marketing/sales, good product people are worth their weight in gold, but tend to be far and few between.

thanks for insight, really helpful!!!!!

sounds like an interesting position, feels like it does have a lot of interaction with the investment people which can be utilized in the future for a transition?

At BLK, you'd definitely be able to transition into their core PM team after being on product strategy. Know that at BLK, core PM is basically just an operational role that clicks a button to rebalance their portfolios to the actual portfolio manager's targets (It would definitely be difficult to get into one oftheir alpha团队),以及使用基本编码技能来帮助自动化其一些报告职责。产品策略是客户/销售团队与投资组合经理之间的中介。

This is not meant to sound as negative as it is. The guys on both teams are pretty good to work with and you could have a pretty good life of work/life balance there.

The answer is maybe. I certainly wouldn't walk into a product interview saying that you want to be a portfolio manager, but you're right in that the exposure you get to investment management teams puts you in a good position to transition later on. In many respects I think this is going to be quite firm dependent, but I've always taken the view that good firms will recognize and make use of talent.
