Finance Jobs in New York

About Finance Jobs in New York

New York is the biggest finance job market in the United States. Most openings sit with investment banks, custody and trust banks, asset managers, private-equity and credit firms, insurers, and the Big 4 and mid-size accounting firms that keep large Manhattan offices. The work ranges from fund accounting, NAV oversight and investor reporting to financial and regulatory reporting, product control, tax compliance and provision, internal audit, and credit and market risk. US GAAP is the reporting standard for most US companies, global banks also report under IFRS for their parent groups, and many roles touch SEC, FINRA or Federal Reserve reporting.

New York City requires employers to show a good-faith salary range in job ads, so many listings here state the pay, which makes offers easier to compare. For candidates from India, the usual routes are an H-1B visa, which is capped and allocated by lottery, or an L-1 intracompany transfer after a year with the same group abroad, so moving with a current employer is often the most realistic path. A US CPA or the CFA strengthens an application, and experience with US GAAP close, SOX controls or US fund clients from an Indian capability centre is directly relevant. CA Samaaj lists only roles published by the employers themselves and never charges a fee.
