25. Fixed Income Investing 101 feat. Brian Weinstein

What is fixed income investing, how does it work, and what is the landscape like on the buy-side?  We are proud to present one of our most exciting and high profile interviews EVER with Brian Weinstein, head of Fixed Income at Morgan Stanley Investment Management (MSIM).  We discuss the current market environment, credit products, economic policy & inflation, and we ask the tough question: can the yield curve really predict the future?  For anyone interested in exploring a job on the buy side, we talk about the path to a career, some of the key skills required, and what the relationship of portfolio managers and researchers looks like at one of the world’s biggest asset managers.  Brian Weinstein is the Head of Fixed Income and a member of the Operating Committee of Investment Management at MSIM. He joined the firm in 2018 from Blue Elephant Capital Management, a fintech focused private credit asset manager, where he was co-founder and CIO. Prior to that role, Brian spent 16 years at BlackRock, where he was the Head of Fundamental Institutional Fixed Income, overseeing $300 billion across multiple fixed income-based strategies. Brian earned a B.A. in history from the University of Pennsylvania.The  Funds4Teachers event is happening the dates below:Locations/DatesAtlanta - Apr 25Boston - June 6Chicago - June 18New York - Sep 26To learn more about how to support this initiative and register click here: https://iconnections.io/funds4teachers/Follow us on Instagram and Tik Tok at @thewallstreetskinnyhttps://www.instagram.com/thewallstreetskinny/
