You can learn more about prime brokerages by visiting the Web sites of major investment banks, including:
- Goldman Sachs: https://www.goldmansachs.com/what-we-do/global-markets
- Morgan Stanley: http://www.morganstanley.com/ideas/prime-brokerage-creating-a-culture-of-partnership
- UBS: https://www.ubs.com/global/en/investment-bank/hedge-funds/prime-services.html
You should also join groups such as the Hedge Fund Administration & Prime Brokerage Group on LinkedIn to learn more about best practices and trends in the industry. LinkedIn is also a good place to connect with people already working at prime brokerages. Perhaps one or two relationship managers would be interested in participating in an information interview with you about their careers. One of these contacts may lead to your first job in the industry.
