No salary increase in London yet, do you guys know why? or when?

Base salaries have increased in NY, but not in London, even though the cost of living there is very high, am I the only who finds this weird? Do you guys have any idea why this hasn't happened yet? or when it would?
Best!

 

I am interning in 2 BBs and both my contratcs say 45 (or less in one of them :/) .. + I've been talking to friends in some BBs and salaries haven't increased .. which BBs do you know have increased their base salaries?

What does this have to do with anything? It's not like living costs in London have skyrocketed compared to like a year ago, is it? What's the correlation of living costs in NYC and LDN?

Maybe salaries haven't been increased since there are no super cap tech firms who are pretty attractive to graduates or the named banks need to take extra measures to retain/attract talent.

 

The thing is though, that there's more going on in the Americas compared to EMEA at least regarding M&A. Therefore, the US branches may make more money and can afford to pay higher salaries without decreasing profitability.

Also, for foreigners, as far as I know, getting a work Visa for the US is quite tricky. Due to this 'barrier to entry' the employers don't have to worry about paying the same in all regions.
