Equity research has seen sustained growth in recent years and is quickly becoming one of our core business areas. We operate across all industry sectors on both the buy and sell side and specialise in working with candidates making their first move into research up to 5 years' experience. We represent a broad range of clients including investment banks, specialist research houses, asset managers and boutiques. 

Equity Research - Providing the fundamental analysis behind investment decisions.
Investment analysts provide the fundamental research that helps drive investment decision making on the stock market. While money managers and traders ultimately decide what to buy and sell, the basis for those decisions frequently starts with analysis provided by researchers at the major investment banks, whose work may be supplemented by internally produced research. 

Career Progression
The natural career progression starts on the sell side. From there, you may try to move to the buy side via a hedge fund or asset manager. Buy-side jobs provide more freedom and flexibility. Typically, buy-side analysts receive bonuses tied to the performance of assets under management. Because the buy side is very competitive, it’s harder to break into. 

Salary
Compensation ranges from a base £40,000 to £50,000 with bonuses of between 20-200% for entry-level analytical positions, Storm says. Senior analysts can expect to earn base salaries ranging between £50,000 to more than £100,000. The bonuses ranging from £150,000 to £1.5 million.
