ABOUT BARCLAYS CAPITAL

With a distinctive business model, Barclays Capital provides large corporate, government, and institutional clients with a full spectrum of solutions to their strategic advisory, financing, and risk management needs. Barclays Capital has offices around the world, employs 20,000 people and has the global reach, advisory services and distribution power to meet the needs of issuers and investors worldwide.

We provide a truly global working environment. We hire and encourage the brightest talent, placing great value on individual initiative, giving you every opportunity to flourish and prosper.
WHAT IS RESEARCH?
At Barclays Capital, we believe that original thinking in the analysis of financial information empowers our business and drives our market strategies for clients. Barclays’ Research provides clients and internal teams with a wide range of
thoughts and ideas to help them to make the best investment decisions. Our Research vision is best described as ‘differentiation and integration’ – we produce differentiated market analysis and viable investment ideas to a range of clients around the globe, integrated across geographies and financial products or asset classes. Positions may be available within the following groups: Portfolio Modeling, Index Strategies, Interest Rates, and Securitised Products.
Portfolio Modeling
The role of the Portfolio Modeling Group is to develop state-of-the-art quantitative tools for portfolio management. The group is recognized as the top provider of portfolio solutions and deals with the largest money managers, insurance companies, banks, pension and hedge funds worldwide. Currently, some of the tools include capital structure analysis, volatility and tail risk modeling, optimization, scenario analysis and return attribution. These tools are distributed to hundreds of clients through a proprietary software platform. The portfolio modeling team covers all asset classes and all global regions. It works closely with both external clients and internal desks/strategy/structuring teams. There is a very strong affiliation with the benchmark and strategy index teams. Associates are expected to author innovative high-quality applied quantitative research and communicate it. Projects are typically medium term and span different asset classes, regions, and themes. All of the team members meet with external clients and present their work on a frequent basis.
Index Strategies
The Global Index Strategies group leads the development, co-ordination and marketing of investment strategies in the form of indexes, across all the major asset classes. The investable index business is a rapidly growing area within Barclays Capital. The team is currently expanding in the US, meeting demand from investors for transparent, liquid and intelligently designed products tracking alpha strategies or reflecting the performance of specific market factors that may be difficult to access though plain-vanilla instruments. While strategically located within the Index and Portfolio Risk Solutions area of the Global Research division, the team benefits from close relations with the key structuring and trading groups across all regions and is involved in the direct marketing of strategies to investors. The role is intensely interactive; linking daily with structuring, trading, legal, IT and other research groups, and is one of few genuinely multi-asset class positions in the bank. Key tasks include analysing and developing strategies to guarantee adherence with our strict index guidelines for objectivity and transparency. They will also include devising and researching new strategies to meet client demand or market opportunities, as well as monitoring and understanding performance patterns in existing indexes.
Interest Rates and Securitised Products
Central to Barclays Capital's #1 ranked Fixed Income Research franchise are the Interest Rates and Securitised Products Strategy teams. With ~50 staff in the US, these teams define the Barclays Capital's perspective on key themes in the Interest Rates and Securitised Products markets, as well as developing deal-specific insights and mining deal data. Barclays Capital is unique in running a tightly integrated model of Research, Sales and Trading : our Research teams focus on producing not only insightful but also action-oriented analyses, they work with Sales teams to bring these insights to our client-base, and are sought out by the trading desk to help the firm manage its own risk. In 2009, the Interest Rates and Securitised Products businesses were the engine for the firm's growth in the US, and globally: despite our talent being widely sought after by clients and competitors alike, we have been able to maintain the size of our teams and plan to stay industry leaders through attracting the best Mathematics, Engineering and Finance PhDs to join our ranks.
Quantitative Portfolio Strategy
The role of an associate within Quantitative Portfolio Strategy (QPS) is to provide quantitative portfolio decision support for the largest institutional investors around the globe.

Ninety-four percent of Rollins’ 173 full-time faculty hold a Ph.D. or the highest degree in their field. The campus, noted for its lakefront beauty and for its unique location, is set in the residential community of Winter Park, just 15 minutes from one of the nation’s most dynamic urban centers, Orlando. Rollins is Florida’s oldest recognized college. For the fifth consecutive year, Rollins ranked number one among southern regional universities in U.S. News & World Report’s “America’s Best Colleges.” Rollins faculty are a community of teacher-scholars, artists, and performers who are nationally and internationally recognized for academic excellence. Rollins faculty are committed to a rigorous, applied liberal arts education and student-centered learning. Faculty at Rollins stretch students’ intellectual curiosities, teach them to think critically, and encourage engagement in the world around them through unparalleled student-faculty collaborative research opportunities, international field experiences, and national-award-winning engaged learning programs.
The Department of International Business invites applications and nominations for a tenure-track position in International Finance beginning August 2010. Teaching load will normally comprise six undergraduate courses annually. The ability to teach the survey international business course would be an asset. The primary course is international finance, an accelerated introductory course in finance that focuses on international finance while reinforcing basic finance concepts. There are also opportunities for electives in the area of international finance. The responsibilities of the position include academic advising and service to the College of Arts and Science and to the Department of International Business.
A terminal degree (Ph.D.; D.B.A.) and international professional or academic experience are required; applicants expecting to complete the academic requirements by summer 2010 will be considered.
The undergraduate International Business (INB) program is distinct in that it operates within a college of liberal arts: it is not part of a business school. The INB department offers a comprehensive, liberal arts based, interdisciplinary approach to the study of international business. All INB majors take courses in business, area studies, and a foreign language and must complete an approved international business internship and study abroad experience. We are highly committed to teaching and student-centered learning, program development, and new educational technologies, in addition to more traditional scholarship. The successful candidate will be committed to the teaching of business and finance in a liberal arts setting.
Through its mission, Rollins College is committed to creating a fully inclusive, just community that embraces multiculturalism; persons of color and other historically under-represented groups are therefore encouraged to apply. The College’s equal opportunity policy is inclusive of sexual orientation, gender identity and expression, and Rollins offers domestic partner benefits.

Permanent faculty members at ISB have graduated from the best universities, primarily in the USA, Europe, Singapore and India, and have published in leading academic journals in their respective fields. The School provides a vibrant research environment for and benefits from the visiting scholars it hosts every year.
Consistent with its research orientation, the school invites application for full time tenure-track faculty positions in the area of Finance and Economics & Public Policy at all levels – Assistant, Associate (tenured or untenured) and Full Professors. Applicants must have an earned PhD from a reputed institution, excellent research and teaching skills, and must demonstrate the ability to produce scholarly work at the highest level, and also show the capability of becoming outstanding teachers. Applicants for senior appointments will have to have published extensively in top-tier refereed journals and must demonstrate a proven track record of ability to mentor junior faculty. As a new institution which aspires to be counted among the best in the world, ISB offers a unique opportunity for its senior faculty members to exert considerable influence over the culture and ethos of the school. The ISB has been listed as one among the top 15 global B-schools by the Financial Times Global MBA 2009 rankings.
The ISB has a tenure system similar to the top schools in the U.S. and is an equal opportunity employer. Compensation is competitive. The infrastructure and facilities at the ISB, unparalleled to any educational institution in India and perhaps Asia, are as good as, if not better than, those at the best business schools in the U.S. and Europe.
