Any thoughts re: deal flow, people, culture, job stability, etc.?






I heard overall for Ibanking
I heard overall for Ibanking UBS is more reputable than ML....and clearly stability wise you would go with UBS
UBS definitely a better
UBS definitely a better option, but they are a cut below GS/MS/CS and even below DB.
no brainer... UBS
even below DB? HAHAHAA thanks for the laugh!
who's below DB tech? perhaps Wachovia?
haha... i'd never go to
haha... i'd never go to DB.
I'd go to BofA before DB.
Why would you even consider Merrill/BofA over UBS? What a joke.
You guys are idiots. DB has
You guys are idiots. DB has done more M&A and more debt offerings in tech over the last 3 years in deal numbers and volume than UBS; only thing UBS is better at is equity-related and the IPO market is nonexistent everywhere right now.
Merrill has done more than both historically but who the heck knows what is going to happen to their practice. And if you are talking west coast, Merrill was never super-focused out here either; they had a bigger presence in NY with IT and business services tech, similar to Citi. For SF west coast, I would take DB over UBS for sure. Maybe a year ago I take Merrill over both but there is a ton of uncertainty with the BOA-Merrill integration. Whatever the case may be, after GS/MS/CS there is a huge drop off in the level of deal volume coming your way in tech.
DB vs. UBS.... go look at
DB vs. UBS.... go look at the league tables... Total M&A 2008, DB isn't anywhere close to UBS.
DB is a joke.

read it and weap DB lovers
as i scan through the first
as i scan through the first few slides all i see is UBS ranked over DB on every table....
IBnutz - that is only for
IBnutz - that is only for 4Q08. For FY2008 I see UBS #7 with 15% share and DB at #8 with 14% share (from dealogic). Not a huge difference so why don't you just calm down over there.
BigBear - I can only comment on job stability and on that note I think it's obvious which bank is in better shape.
IBnutz, you are a moron.
IBnutz, you are a moron. This has nothing to do with total M&A. This is strictly for TECHNOLOGY sector M&A. Go do an SDC run and check out the league tables specifically focused on tech, not total M&A, which is irrelevant when talking about specific group strength, ESPECIALLY regional offices like Houston/LA/SF.
Yeah forgot to point that
Yeah forgot to point that out as well. Also, Tech was a very small slice of the activity in 4Q08 so not a great proxy. The numbers I posted above were for TMT M&A FY08
dumb ass, you said DB has
dumb ass, you said DB has done more "M&A and more debt deals"
so... you'e wrong... they haven't done more M&A
and no one is doing any debt deals right now
honestly, DB is a joke of a bank, its just a DCM desk with a few add ons. go away little man.
oh yeah, and i dont remember
oh yeah, and i dont remember seeing anyone specify anything about any regional offices on this post...
look dude, quit getting all sensetive because you work at DB and you couldn't get a job at a real IB.

You guys are idiots. DB has done more M&A and more debt offerings in tech over the last 3 years
