What is Demystifying the Buyside?
Breaking into hedge funds, private equity, and asset management is notoriously opaque. The roles are rarely advertised, the hiring process is different to everything else, and getting honest information from people who've actually done it is nearly impossible.
That's what this event is for. We've brought together a panel of buyside professionals who have built careers at top-tier firms to answer your questions directly. No polished PR, no corporate speak. Just honest insight from people who've been through it.
Whether you're a student targeting your first buyside role, a banker looking to make the switch, or someone already in finance wanting to move into a different seat - this is for you.
