[MUSIC PLAYING] TIBOR PÁL: What surprised me the most is that here, everyone is approachable. It doesn’t really matter what is your title, where are you working at, what team, which division. You can go to anyone and ask for some help and you will definitely get it.
I’m managing the RFP team, focusing on retail and iShares product ventures in the EMEA region, which means that we are preparing requests for proposals and due diligence questionnaires for all the prospective and existing clients in the European, Middle Eastern, and African region.
I’m managing a team in two locations. And in London, we have really experienced RFP writers. And we would like to make sure that their experience, their knowledge is utilized, leveraged effectively in Budapest as well. And the fact that we have to work closely together remotely in London and in Budapest, it’s a great challenge. And actually, I came here for challenges, so this is why this is a great place.
We are working in one of the coolest offices in Budapest, and I think in the region. All the market players are focusing on the domestic market, while BlackRock is present all over the world. It’s focusing on international fund distribution. If we would like to see how a global asset manager is working in the region, BlackRock is the best place to work.
