The good news for technologists hoping to make to the upper echelons of investment banking is that Goldman appears to be embracing the idea that technical people should remain in charge.

Nonetheless, this hasn’t sat overly well with some the IT staff at the bank, who feel the balance of power has shifted towards the quants.

 Lloyd Blankfein says that the bank is a “technology firm nowadays”, while Walker’s LinkedIn profile invites technologists to get in touch with the bank’s HR teams.

if you book a forward online with easyfx.com there are no fees, but you have to place a margin deposit which forms aprt of the contract. The forward price is based upon the interest rate differential between the two Countries whose Currencies you are comparing. RMB can only be traded as an NDF (Non deliverable forward) and most firms will not quote a forward price on it – although you will be able to find one somewhere. Best of luck!
