How does MS compare to JPM, DB, CS, and UBS in Lev Fin? I know that it's much better than the firms below overall, but not sure how good their Lev. Fin group is. These other firms Lev. Fin group is much more established and known, but I guess any opinions on the future would be helpful.

by yaoMingHistorically, MS has not been a powerhouse in Lev Fin but with a new push in that sector, they are arguably one of the best firms on the street.
They may not underwrite as much as the commercial banks, but very strong nonetheless with lots of sponsor activity.
