Hi
Just read your article. Made me smile and gave me some thoughts. I am a 15 year old living in London, and extremely interested in Banking. I have already read some books on it, and tried some demo websites for it. Also, my uncle is quite high up in a major banking firm – which has given me some idea of the job.
I was wondering what I can do to gain more experience in the field (such as work experience, books etc). Any advice would be gratefully received.
Many Thanks.

Depends what the graduate program entails… if it’s closer to banking I would pick that. I am not a fan of the CFA although it can be more helpful in emerging markets – breaking into banking is really all about networking rather than certifications (see the networking-related articles under Recruiting at the top of this site).
