    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
  • Each day at Rothschild & Co involved a mix of activities including insightful speakers, panel discussions, workshops, through which we were able to learn more about the firm’s operations. We worked on an M&A case study that we presented to a senior team and explored the firm’s philanthropy through R&Co4Generations. Opportunities to speak with and shadow Analysts allowed us to gain insights into their personal experiences and respective sectors.

    Business Insight

  • 3. What was it like understanding all about the business and potential roles available?
  • Learning about Rothschild & Co’s different areas like Global Advisory, Five Arrows, and others was insightful. They brought in great speakers who gave us a real feel for the various roles and how each part contributes to the firm’s goals. This gave me a much clearer and deeper understanding of the firm’s operations beyond just reading about them online.
