I am an investment analyst and I want to join a Private Equity firm. What skills do I need? How do I join one?

I have 6 years experience in financial modeling and financial analysis. What are the specific activities of a Private Equity firm? How do I round-up some investors who will put their money in the firm for investment? What are the day-to-day activities? What skills do I need? Thanks for your insights!

Check with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the legal requirements. In terms of skills, your investment knowledge and commercial operations on specific industries will be a definite plus. Not only should you be involved in strategic planning, but you should also understand how the company operates on a technical level. Try to understand industry trends and valuations, because that is what you will do on a daily basis.

perhaps you can try forex. which is also excellent way for you to invest.

The FOREX or Foreign Exchange market is the largest financial market in the world, with an volume of more than $1.5 trillion daily, dealing in currencies. Unlike other financial markets, the Forex market has no physical location, no central exchange. It operates through an electronic network of banks, corporations and individuals trading one currency for another.
