Analyst Question: Download Analyst PDF

A financial analyst is responsible for making recommendations about investments and money-saving strategies. Most work for large corporations, but some also work for individuals or families, particularly those with a lot of money to invest. Their main job is to study the client's assets to look for different ways of growing them and making even more money. In most cases analysts do not actually do any investing themselves but they do a lot of research so that clients will have all the information they need to make their own financial decisions. An analyst may make recommendations but he/she rarely if ever actually executes any transactions.
