About the Division

Morgan Stanley Prime Brokerage employs a team of experienced Client Coverage Representatives (CCRs) across regional offices worldwide, offering Hedge Funds access to the full breadth of the Firm's expertise through a single point of contact.

Management of risks in sensitive markets – working with internal groups to ensure clients avoid costly operational mistakes and regulatory risks. Provide assistance on Investor ID applications prior to investments in restricted market.

Daily reconciliation – assisting with position, borrow and financing reconciliation queries on a daily basis. Monitoring through reporting.

Risk and Margin – expertise and reporting enables us to walk clients through transparent, dynamic, and stable margin policies, explain leverage limits, and help with margin impact analysis ahead of establishing new trades

Financing – discussions around multi-asset class financing across equity, fixed income, swap and other derivatives that enable clients to manage their financing costs, understand rehypothecation, and be versed in the asset protection and counterparty risk management solutions that the Firm provides.

About the Role

Regarded for having one of the leading Prime Brokerage Client Coverage teams in the industry, Morgan Stanley relies on its CCRs to offer the highest coverage levels to our clients and to ensure that they have access to all available resources within the Firm. Outside of the day-to-day elements of the role outlined above, our CCRs also contribute significantly to relationship management and the development of the business through a number of product and technology initiatives: client workshops, best practice advisory, content delivery, account reviews, global working groups and identifying organic commercial opportunities.

Client Coverage Representatives will be given the opportunity to service clients of varying sizes and strategies, thus allowing them to build a strong understanding of the Hedge Fund industry. In this role, Client Coverage Representatives will be given resources, which allow them to build extensive knowledge of the Prime Brokerage business, and the Firm as a whole.
