Do you like working in a fast-paced and challenging financial environment?
Advising and counselling clients on appropriate investments and working as a stockbroker may be the career for you.
What’s this career about?
Stockbrokers deal with a variety of investments, including stocks, bonds, and mutual funds. They invest in the stock market for individuals or corporations. Only members of the stock exchange can conduct transactions, so whenever individuals or corporations want to buy or sell stocks they must go through a brokerage house.
Brokers explain the workings of the stock exchange to their clients and gather information from them about their needs and financial ability, and then determine the best investments for them. The broker then sends the order out onto the floor of the securities exchange by computer or by phone. When the transaction has been made, the broker supplies the client with the price. The buyer pays for the stock and the broker transfers the title of the stock to the client and performs clearing and settlement procedures.
In order to provide the best advice to their customers, stockbrokers continuously research publicly traded companies, their products, and finances. They also stay abreast of market trends and know which stocks offer good long-term and short-term investments.
