Mercy please, it’s not my fault that they want an native speaker to tell jokes during coffee breaks.

 

I saw it quiet a few times in the Frankfurt market. Best exits I saw is Lazard/Roths afaik (still, however, seems on ambitious side as it does not happen extremely often). What should be really doable is a MM i.e. Lincoln. I rarely (tbh never) saw it happening to a BB let alone top BB like GS/MS/JPM.

Thats not really a good synthesis of my statement. I would see it as this: 

  • It is in general possible to switch from Big 4 M&A to an Investment Bank in the German M&A market (here I have first hand insights) 
  • Based on my observations it is ambitious but possible to land at a good EB (i.e., Rothschild & Lazard) 
  • Based on my observations it is highly unlikely to end up at a BB (i.e., UBS, DB, Barclays, Citi, Bofa) and extremely unlikely to end up at a top BB (i.e., GS, JPM, MS)
