The Department
Fidelity Investments has more than $ 2.2 trillion in equity assets under management and, with its roots dating back to the 1940s, has long been a leader in managing equity portfolios. Fidelity relies on its proprietary research, disciplined portfolio management and sophisticated trading process to deliver superior long-term results for its shareholders and clients. Over the years, its capabilities have grown substantially, with investment strategies designed across style, capitalization, sector, and geography. While its platform has expanded, its principles have remained the same: to offer those strategies in which Fidelity can add value and to offer products that help meet client needs.
Our Equity department has over 195 research professionals stationed around the world, giving it scale that few competitors can match. These professionals integrate their research across industries and regions while also working with sector-aligned analysts in other asset classes, such as high income or investment grade debt. As a result, they can evaluate companies based on their global reach, their capital structure and supply chains, the relative strength of their competitors, and their end markets.

Looking for a best-in-class opportunity to obtain hands-on experience with fundamental analysis and the investment research process? The Equity Research Associate internship program gives interns the chance to obtain and develop the core research skills needed to jumpstart a successful and lucrative career in investment management.
