agree with thecow10000. i think sell side, and probably brokers, are big clients.
and btw, djcong, bloomberg doesn't charge by account, it charges by terminal. so as long as ur team has bloomberg terminals, everyone can hav an account.
the position lz posted is for guys who answer techinical questions to clients and sometimes provide training to new client. they answer questions via bloomberg messanger (or phone). it helps improve ur finance knowledge a bit. from my usage, i feel many indian people are doing that, and S'pore also has a bunch of people .
This is just an IT support job. I think Bloomberg's biggest customer is "sell side", the IBanks, not buy side. This job is not too bad, probably pays ok but it not going to feed into a top 7 MBA... and this job+MBA is probably not going to place into investment side of PE... more like in-house Analytics/IT/support. -- by 会员 thecow10000 (2009/11/9 2:17:17)
你可以问问那些banker是不是每个人都有一个账号。反正几年前我在IBD是没有账号的。但是private banking, sales, trading是每人都有的,还有对冲基金共同基金作交易和研究的每人也都有。你说谁是最大客户阿 -- by 会员 djcong (2009/11/9 3:06:53)
Exactly, I am in S&T (sell side) in an I-Bank and I have an Bloomberg account.    rivate banking is sell side and and they are often part of an I-Bank (i.e. JPM, GS, ML, MS etc.)... private bankers have bloomberg accounts. Remember, I said "I-banks" NOT Ibankers. You are right, I-bankers usually don' t have Bloomberg accounts. I agree hedge Fund/PE are buy side. -- by 会员 thecow10000 (2009/11/9 10:18:53)
