Jon Corzine, CEO of Goldman in the 1990’s, and Philip Purcell, CEO of Morgan Stanley from 1997 to 2005, are both U of Chicago MBA. So is Brady Dougan, CEO of Credit Sussie First Boston. Peter Peterson is founder of Blackstone Group. Jon Ruberstein is founder of the Carlye Group. Both have U of Chicago degree. Indeed back when I was in U of C GSB in the 1980’s, there was certainly heavy recruiting from Wall Street firms. Barry Zubrow led the Goldman recruitment effort at U of C and he later became the Head of Operation and Administration at Goldman.
Yes, these are just a few more prominent examples and I have no detailed figures about all Wall Street firms and hedge funds employees educational background. Still I would hate to think that U of Chicago is a lightweight on Wall Street.
