Investment Banking in the Middle east, particularly GCC

Hey everyone,

I've been trying to read about this, but I could not find a lot of information.

Which investment banks have a strong presence in the GCC area. By strong presence, I mean that they recruit heavily there. And, is it easier to get a job/summer analyst position there compared to north America and Europe?
