What hedge fund people make, an estimate

Analyst

Junior analyst

$100,000

Portfolio manager, conservative

$750,000

No public survey covers Canadian hedge fund pay, so this is an estimate set below the US figures on the next card, because Canadian funds are smaller. A bad year can pay close to nothing. Job Bank's broad category for financial and investment analysts has a median of $43.27 an hour, about $90,000 a year, and leaves out bonuses.
