🎉Many congratulations to our June 2023 student, Nifemi on securing an internship with UBS. Investment banking is a challenging field and it's definitively not everyone's cup of tea. Nifemi had no investment banking experience under his belt before he joined our 8 week course. And studying in New York as a Brit can never be easy. But he took it upon himself to add to his technical and job hunting knowledge by joining City Investment Training. Many students prefer to take a holiday in the summer but those who are focused on securing a job in banking have a growth mindset. One of the key reasons I started City Investment Training was to help dedicated students like Nifemi to break into banking. This commitment to quality is why we turn down over half of all course applicants. We extend our heartfelt best wishes to Nifemi for his future. I am sure he will knock it out of the park at UBS. 👉 Applications for our Summer, 8-week, 2024 investment banking programs are now open. 🛑 BUT STOP!

You could be studying at LSE, Oxford or Cambridge.. But if you are unable to answer commercial awareness (CA) questions, chances that you will get a £100k job in banking straight out of university are remote. It's important that students continue to read FT's LEX column and know how to structure CA answers in interviews. Here is how you handle the question like a PRO in the interview. ----- This week, CEO, Sam Altman and Co-Founder, Greg Blockman got ousted from the board of OpenAI. The board claimed that they lost confidence in the duo's ability to lead the firm. It is unusual for a board of only 6 members to make such a big decision for a company. The board explained thar Mr Altman had not been "consistently candid with his communications". This impacting the board's ability to exercise its responsibilities. Who are the other four members of the board? 1. OpenAI’s Chief Scientist, Ilya Sutskever; 2. Quora's CEO, Adam D’Angelo; 3. Tech Entrepreneur, Tasha McCauley; and 4. Helen Toner, Strategy Director; Georgetown's Center - Security & Emerging Tech Most tech companies now have more AI experts than the board of OpenAI 😂😂 Arguably, the one tech company which HAD the biggest potential of changing the course of human history. ---------------------- Any other big board room firings that you can remember? Apple fired CEO, Steve Jobs in 1985 - Yes that did happen for those of you who are too young. Wink Wink! 😉 That's good KNOWLEDGE to bring up in the interview. ----------- In interviews make sure to.... 💡 Know your facts - What happened exactly. 💡 Know the names - Sam Altman and Greg Blockman 💡 Have an opinion - What's next for Sam? 💡 Know your numbers in an M&A deal. ------------ I have personally helped more than 250 students break into banking in the last 6 years for the likes of... ✅ Goldman Sachs, ✅ Morgan Stanley ✅ JP Morgan and ✅ UBS among many others. 👉 If you would like to join us for our Free 2-day CERTIFIED course (worth £1,000) on how to break into banking and learn financial modelling.

Click here to get your copy: https://www.cityinvestmenttraining.com/blog Here's a template to answer inflation related commercial awareness questions in Investment Banking interviews.. Make sure to keep your response in the interview structured and brief. Know your numbers - i.e. inflation readings, mortgage rates etc. Here is a model answer that can be refined... UK inflation more than halved to 4.6% in October from its peak of 11% earlier this year. Lower inflation is good news for the economy as it generally reflects in lower mortgage rates, higher consumer spending and higher property prices. However, BOE would need to see a consistent reading of lower inflation, perhaps another 3 to 6 months in the 2 to 4% bracket before they consider bringing down interest rates. Lower interest rates help sectors such as .. 1. Real Estate 2. Consumer Discretionary 3. Financial Services and 4. Related support businesses such as legal/admin etc. Re Valuations of equity, lower interest rates allow for higher DCF valuations as cost of debt is lower resulting in a lower WACC being used to discount future earnings. Especially true for hyper growth stocks in sectors such as Tech. Overall, we should see a rising stock market coupled with higher M&A deal flow if interest rates reduce significantly over the next year or two. 📣 Calling all current undergraduate and master's students as well as recent graduates from across North America and Europe interested to break into investment banking.

Click here to get your copy: https://www.cityinvestmenttraining.com/blog How do Private Equity funds manage companies differently to that of public listed companies? Managing a Private Equity company is not much different than managing a public listed company. However, given that PE funds typically hold underlying investee companies only for five to six years bring a sense of immediacy to the game. Also, the use of leverage makes running a PE funded business much riskier and there is a laser focused approach on cash flow as it is critical to servicing the mountain of debt used to fund the deal.

I have placed students at top investment banks including GS, MS, JP and UBS among many others. I have seen students from top universities including LSE, Oxford and Cambridge fail in banking interviews because of two key reasons.... ❌ Lack of Technical Knowledge ❌ Commercial Awareness How you explain the WeWork bankruptcy in an interview makes the difference between you getting a £100K job or rejoining the applicant pool. Here are some facts.... Court documents have unveiled that SoftBank transferred nearly $1.5bn to WeWork’s creditors a mere week before the co-working space provider declared bankruptcy. The Japanese investment fund has committed over $16bn to WeWork since its foundation in 2017. Strikingly, SoftBank transferred $1.47bn to lenders, including Goldman Sachs, on 31st October as WeWork strived to 'chart a value-maximizing path' with its stakeholders. At its zenith in the private market, WeWork was valued at a staggering $47bn. However, it faced a dramatic downfall following a failed public offering attempt and the removal of co-founder Adam Neumann in 2019. The onset of the Covid-19 pandemic further intensified the company's problems as a large number of firms turned to work from home options for their employees. WeWork made its debut in the stock market in 2021, but suffered a precipitous drop in value, Its shares being suspended this week, leaving its market capitalisation at just under $50m. Three key tips when discussing commercial awareness in interviews.. ⮕ Know the facts on the news - Bankruptcy, IPO and investments ⮕ Talk numbers ($1.5bn $47bn and $50m) ⮕ Name names - CEO, Adam Neumann ⮕ Remember dates Students, if you want a job in banking..
