Fundamental Research Fellowship, Canvas

On our proprietary research team—Market Intelligence—you’ll partner with our Investment Professionals and Compliance team to uncover insights about companies, industries, and the broader economy through deep fundamental research.

Canvas is the supply chain research group within Market Intelligence. Canvas conducts compliant supply chain research by developing deep industry expertise, talking with private company executives, and synthesizing information for portfolio managers and analysts. Our team produces impactful research that will change the way you look at the world.

This 6-month intensive fellowship offers hands‑on experience in research, business analysis, cross‑functional collaboration, and the investment process within a fast‑paced, compliance‑focused environment. Canvas Fellows will be considered for permanent placement on the team following completion of the program.

When you join the Canvas team, you’re signing up for the learning experience of a lifetime. You will never look at anything the same way—from grocery stores to tires to semiconductors. Every day, Canvas team members speak with private company executives and learn about the businesses they’ve spent their lives building. The team synthesizes findings in comprehensive reports that are consumed by Point
