Strats & Modeling

Summer Associate Program

 

A DAY IN THE LIFE

I chose Morgan Stanley to launch my postgraduate career because...
it provided a wide overview of the business. Morgan Stanley has a demanding and exciting environment with some of the most talented leaders in the business.

As a Strats and Modeling Summer Associate...
I needed strong technical, quantitative, programming and communication skills from day one. I developed a deep understanding of the business, my particular area, and the challenges inherent within each. I worked closely with other Strats, Traders, Structurers and Salespeople, and the Marketing, Legal and Compliance teams.

My role on the team...
involved analyzing daily risk and the previous day's profit & loss (P&L) and reading market updates. I helped the trading desk analyze particular results from a model I developed over the duration of my internship.

The best part of my summer experience at Morgan Stanley was...
learning while being part of a supportive team. The atmosphere of entrepreneurship and frank, clear communication allowed for constructive debate —my opinion made a difference, which encouraged me to develop new ideas and be more creative. I worked independently, but I knew that I was not alone in the process.
