Dear Quantnet
I was recently invited for an interview for the aforementioned intern level job. Unfortunately I do not have much understanding of the term counter party risk trading. A quick search of the term on google reveals information on counter party risk or trading but never the 2 put together. Can someone provide some advice on reading materials for the interview? I am really desperate to get this position...
Many thanks
 
Are you sure its not Counter party trading risk? since that might make sense to me
 
I can confirm it is counter party risk trading desk from the email I received.
@Ken Abbott Thanks for the reading I think I will start there.
 
Thanks. the position is in singapore. Unfortunately i don't really know what the position is about. HR sort of just asked me whether I want to try for the interview after I got rejected for the position i was gunning for.
 
it should be mostly an xva pricing job, especially on the counterparties with weak CSAs
