Could anyone tell me about Rothschild in Asia? Specifically - Singapore and Hong Kong.
Are they as reputable in Asia as they are in Europe? I understand that they are a boutique investment bank. Frankly, I'm not sure how they stand vs. other Asian boutique IBs.
Thanks in advance :)

I guess it'll be good to know the deal flow, exit opps, and salary too.
Not a boutique, strong presence in Asia compared to other players like LZ.
they are rather reputable. Have you applied and gone for the interview yet? If i'm not wrong, Rothschild offer 6mths long internship...

Know this guy who did his internship with them for 7 months.
I wonder how much they pay their interns then =D
did you apply to them and for what position? I applied for a New Analyst position for HK and singapore but don't think they've started reviewing applications yet
I was called for an internship interview, so it should be soon. I guess they do it on a rolling basis? Do you know how big their teams are?
I heard most of their employees are Asian
Lots of Asians in LAZ's Singapore office too. Its their home turf after all.
Righto. I guess making connections is easier in Asia if you're Asian.
I guess on their junior levels, they are. A quick check using Linkedin tells me that it seems to be so.
I've dealt with them here in the US and they have generally had an oversize ego. Rothschild it seems has lost its luster and is riding off the glory days. That said I think of them in the same vein as BBH, although not as nice to play with.
That's hilarious the way you put it. But just wondering, are their hiring and firing as cyclical as the other BBs out there? It seems like many of their employees stay on for years, although compensation is not the highest on the street, it's relatively "safer"?
1, LAZ Asia HQ is in HK (where the head of Asia sits), not SG...
If you don't agree, I will tell you that in Asia banks without balance sheet financing capibility are sh!t because M&A markets are not that active and developed than the US/ Eurpe.
Do a quick Linkedin search. You will find the exit opp for Rothschild (Asia) won't be that good, but I believe you will land BB IBD interviews during good times (if IBD is something you would like to do).
I know this is out of topic from the original discussion, but what do you mean specifically when you say "M&A markets are not that active and developed than the US/ Eurpe"?
Shouldn't M&A activities be quite high since this is a growth region?
there are a lot equity offerings going on but as far as M&A deals...there are some but not much.
One reason is you almost never have any LBO deals due to the distaste for leverage in the region. There are some others due to culture and other things as well
Pretty small in Aus (if you count that as Asia)
Rothschild in Asia - Culture and deal flow (Originally Posted: 11/21/2007)
Has anyone worked for, or currently working or have heard of anything with regards to the Rothschild offices in Asia? If so, would you be able to provide some feedback regarding its culture, working environment, comp, and deal flow. Any opinions or views would be very much appreciated!
Got a friend in their SEA office... Deal flow is awesome! he's doing lots of deals in very small teams so lots of exposure to senior ppl and the like. not sure abt comp but I presume it should be pretty good..PM if you have spec questions
I PM'd you. Thanks for your insights.
I PM'd you. Thanks for your insights.
IB in Asia, which office are you considering specifically? I hear they have very small outfits.
Cindy_80, I am considering the HK office. Do you know anything about them? Working environment, culture, deal flow? Anything will help!
