Barclays Capital - Trading

[Edit]

At BarCap trading covers areas such as Bonds, Commodities, Credit Derivatives, Emerging Markets, Equity Derivatives, Fixed Incomes and Foreign Exchange. Traders buy and sell financial instruments and must quote 'bid and offer' prices to clients and counterparties upon request.

Traders work closely with sales and research teams. Traders need to be strong decision makers with highly developed analytical skills. Graduates at BarCap usually start out as Assistant Traders, monitoring breaking news and price fluctuations and providing analysis and trade ideas.
