Interview with Tatsuya

Previous role:

Equity Research Analyst, Global Research team

Current role:

Marketer, Equity Structured Products, Equities

Why did you decide to switch roles?

I had a fleeting thought when my current line manager mentioned a role they were looking to fill, ＾Oh, that sounds interesting.￣ Following several discussions with him, my initial decision was to remain in my research role. However, after much consideration, and despite the goals I had as a research analyst and the uncertainties of a new role, I decided to move. I felt it was not every day that an opportunity like this would present itself, and I wanted to rise to the challenges this new role would bring.

なぜ呟強を畳めたのですか

はじめは仝ちょっと中易そうだな々くらいのXい佶龍だったと房います。嶬擇離櫂献轡腑鵑波砲鯡修靴討い襪箸いΔ海箸如△修離践`ムの枠渦から碧並や桟廠についていろいろと三を療きました。匯業は距鳳床燭冒瑤泙襪海箸鮠めましたが、その朔も徭附のキャリアについて晩？深えているうちに、リサ`チアナリストとしてやり膜げたいことも、呟強することへの音芦もたくさんあるけれども、このような字氏が嚥えられるのも書だけだと房い、仟しい碧並?叨護にチャレンジしてみようと恷嶮議に呟強を畳吭しました。

How different is your current role compared to your previous one?

The speed at which you have to work through various tasks is different from research. Being a marketer requires quick and accurate responses to clients in a constantly shifting market, whereas being a researcher requires persistence and thoroughness on long-term projects. It is exciting to see the results of my work right away in terms of realized revenue.

I have also obtained a wider range of knowledge and experience after joining this team. When I was in research, I was in charge of the Japanese internet and gaming sector. Now, I deal with a wide variety of derivative products across regions, even including foreign exchange (FX) and commodity-related instruments. It is challenging to cover all this, but I love learning new things every day.

Lastly, one great thing about derivatives is their flexibility. Our mission is to deliver custom-made solutions that meet client demands and are in line with their investment policies and market views. Needless to say, each investor has a variety of market views and complexities in his or her strategy. I see my role as offering the most appropriate derivative product at the right time to meet an investor's needs, using the analytical skills I developed when I was in research.

參念の碧並坪否との離いは採ですか

じっくり扮寂をかけて深え、誘彿アイディアを侘にしていくリサ`チとは呟なり、震匯震と篁するマ`ケットの嶄で儻堀にかつ屎鳩に綱人へプライスを戻幣し、オ`ダ`を峇佩していくスピ`ド湖が匯桑の離いのように湖じます。佃しさ、寄笋気里覆にも、朕に需える侘でб罎鯢呂欧討いやりがいを湖じています。

また、岑紛、UYの嫌が匯粁とﾚがりました。リサ`チアナリスト扮旗は、晩云のインタ`ネットやゲ`ム氏芙を嶄伉に距?蛍裂を毅輝していました。呟強朔はマ`ケタ`として、枠序忽から余貧忽まで、そして幄のみならず娥発、虧罅▲灰皀妊ティ吉、嫌ﾚい仇囃の嫌ﾚい署蛮斌瞳を函りQうようになりました。茶膿することが謹く寄笋癖吠造任呂△蠅泙垢、佶龍はまったく勝きません。

倖？の綱人の箔める誘彿の扮寂已や圭寞、牾〉Qに児づき、そのニ`ズに悲罷に鬉任る署蛮斌瞳を戻工できることも、デリバティブならではの龍だと房います。リサ`チアナリスト扮旗に凍ってきた薦、すなわち巷望のファンダメンタルズ、幄バリュエ`ション蛍裂を圷に書朔の幄強鬚鮗宥し、その貧で恷癖なタイミングで、恷癖な署蛮塗伏斌瞳を綱人へ戻宛することこそ、怏岶?チ`ムの嶄で暴がk屍できる暴徭附の｡鏡徭來だと佚じています。

How do you manage an internal move?

While there are many things to be gained from moving, you will inevitably give up some things too. I was passionate about my role as an equity research analyst, and I really enjoyed working with my senior manager to enhance the 況釘薙兎壓 brand. Having said this, I was finally drawn to the new role by the challenge it provided, and the fact that this was an opportunity that may never come my way again. After making my decision, I had many conversations with my senior manager.

To this day, I am still not sure whether he fully agreed with my decision. But he respected my decision and I am deeply thankful for the kind sendoff he gave me. I believe that the biggest token of appreciation I can give him is to have him think I made a good move when he sees what I am contributing to the new role and the business.

どのように芙坪呟強を序めましたか

呟強して返に秘るものもあれば、あきらめなければいけないことがあるのも並gです。リサ`チアナリストの碧並にはやりがいを湖じていましたし、パッション吝れる貧望や揖租と匯蚊ビジネスを腹り貧げていきたい、雨京皆リサ`チのブランドを廏き貧げていきたいという房いもありました。それでも、恷嶮議に呟強を畳僅したのは、それ參貧に仟しい蛍勸へのチャレンジ、書の暴だからこそめぐってきたチャンスにして、寄きな帆Δ鮓个犬燭燭瓩任靴拭Ｒ豢を畳僅朔はその房いを貧望にぶつけ、三し栽いを嶷ねました。貧望にどこまで追誼してもらえたのかは書でも蛍かりませんが、恷嶮議に暴の襪い鮗海瀏，袗靫悗掘犯く僕り竃してくれた貧望にはとても湖仍をしています。ゆくゆくは仝あの扮、呟強して措かったな々といってもらえるように潤惚で幣すことこそが、泳にする寓卦しでもあると佚じています。

What's the best part about moving roles?

I do not believe that changing roles is easy, but it can be very rewarding if well executed. In my opinion, successfully changing roles relies largely on one's motivation for moving. In my case, my success has been largely thanks to the commitment I have put into the move. I'm sure there was more I could have learned by continuing my original role, but the most important thing for me was to create more options in my career C not just moving for a change of scenery. The financial industry is moving quickly. We need to be prepared for the future by keeping a wide range of options open in our careers, and by always communicating our goals with bosses and colleagues.

呟強をして恷もよかったことは採ですか

呟強する並徭悶に吭吶があるとは畠く房いません。徭蛍のキャリアを深えた貧で、採か撹し膜げたいことがあり、その返粁として呟強が駅勣であるのならば、そういう僉kをすることも深打すべきでしょう。暴徭附の呟強についても、その撹倦を畳めるのはこれからの暴肝及です。潤蕉、すべてはやってみないと蛍からない。書の碧並、叨護をAけることでできること、需えてくるものもきっとあると房います。寄俳なのは呟強の措ししではなく、械に仝僉k岔を隔つ々こと、そして仝徭蛍で畳僅する々ことだと房います。蒙に厘？が附を崔く署蛮匍順は朕まぐるしく篁している匍順でもあります。晩ごろから徭附の碧並?叨護?キャリアについてしっかり深え、貧望、揖租、何和と三し栽いを嶷ね、さまざまな僉k岔?辛嬬來を扮犬靴討くことが嶷勣でしょう。

What tips would you give colleagues from your mobility experience?

I have found that the main way to earn opportunities is simple just do your best at your current job. People around you will recognize your performance, even if you are not directly working together. Continually do your best for your client, for your team, and for yourself, and you will be amazed at how many doors can open for you.

呟強したUYからのアドバイスはありますか

寄きなチャンスを誼るために、まずは徭蛍の朕の念の碧並に匯伏傅凋に函り怏むこと、それが採よりも嶷勣なのだと個めてg湖しました。匯伏傅凋函り怏んでいれば、徭蛍が岑らないうちにきっと巓りは得してくれているし、肝のチャンスが儔ってくることもあるものです。どんな碧並であっても、誘げやりにならず碓莫にならず、徭蛍の蕁▲践`ムの蕁怏岶のために匯伉音岱に函り怏んでみてください。
