stupid choice?

by HerSerendipity Certified User (Gorilla, 541 Banana Points Points) on 10/31/06 at 11:49am

Would one be stupid for taking Deutsche Bank over Lehman (for ibd/capital markets?) or Credit Suisse (S&T) over both?

Why would you do DB over LB?

by LB Banker (Orangutan, 285 Banana Points Points) on 10/31/06 at 12:21pm

Why would you do DB over LB? That's a dumb move.

If you got S&T, do that.

i don't see how its a dumb move - and I don't work for either firm.

they're both good firms with good reputations - and don't try and use league tables to justify a decision
