Samuel Chiu
Goldman Sachs

I joined Goldman Sachs as a controllers intern in the finance division. We work closely with the firm’s businesses to ensure that our profitability is accurately measured and reported, whether the reports are for internal management or external investors. My training in QFRM prepared me to understand the basic business aspects of the firm’s products and to make sense of the increasingly sophisticated measures applied to safeguard the firm and mitigate risks on our capital. My supervisors gave me the best advice I’ve ever received, namely to connect with lots of people and be prepared to ask the right questions.
