Is a pHd more useful than an MSFE for landing a position in prop trading or anything else?
There seem to be a lot of MSFEs in here, but I read in the interviews posted that a phd would be more useful. Typically how long will finance PHDs take?
I think the difference is like between surfing and diving. It is a question of depth.
If finance interests you, you may want to go into it as a career or study to a certain level.
If you want to drill into a specific topic, with a very narrow focus and are prepared to grapple with it for 5 years or more, then you have a better chance of going all the distance as part of a PhD program.
