What’s the difference? Public vs. Private Accounting PUBLIC ACCOUNTING (BIG FOUR) Public accountants work for a particular accounting firm and serve various clients in ranging fields Involved in the collecting and external reporting of financial information 2 PRIVATE ACCOUNTING (SEO) Private accountants work as internal accountants for one company Involved in the internal use of financial information to and help managers within the company make more effective business decisions Private or corporate accountants perform the same types of tasks of public accountants, yet these tasks are specific to the companies for which they work.

Why work in Accounting at an Investment Bank? Learn the business of running an Investment Bank – Opportunity to gain a broad and deep knowledge of various areas of a bank (Rotational Programs) – Private accountants get to know a business more intimately than their colleagues in public accounting who are only able to obtain a high-level view – Help execute strategic goals, drive disciplined growth, and enhance operational efficiencies More Doors Opened – Working in private accounting opens up career paths outside of the specific disciplines of audit and tax which are the main staples of public accounting 3

Why work in Accounting at an Investment Bank? Less Stressful Environment than Public Accounting – Private accountants work with the same group of colleagues and tend to have a more relaxed lifestyle. Public accounts deal with a wide variety of people and demands, thus their work is inevitably more stressful.
