Q:

What is Line of credit?

Answer

Line of credit is an agreement or arrangement between the bank and a borrower, to provide a certain amount of loans on borrower’s demand. The borrower can withdraw the amount at any moment of time and pay the interest only on the amount withdrawn. For example, if you have $5000 line of credit, you can withdraw the full amount or any amount less than $5000 (say $2000) and only pay the interest for the amount withdrawn (in this case $2000).

Q:

What have you learned from your studies that can be applied to a career in investment banking?

Answer

You might initially think that if you haven’t done a degree in finance or economics you haven’t got very much to offer an investment bank, but you’d be wrong. Any numerate discipline will have given you a mathematical toolkit that will come in useful in technical banking work, and any good degree proves that you’re intelligent, hardworking, and effective under pressure. Extra-curricular activities may have given you a wealth of other skills that are valuable at an investment bank, such as being able to juggle a number of commitments and work with others.
