Analyst comp. (Canada)

Friend at a Big 5 bank - base was $70, bonus was 100% of base, I assume this is top bucket. Friend at a BB bank - Base was $85, bonus was marginal (prob $20K)

115?...150?... isn't substantial?... r u out of your mind???

first year analysts dont even make that when including signing bonus AND year end bonus...

Alex_Kap is right about the base..$70,000. As for the bonus, your friend lied to you... bonus is between 10-50% for first year analysts at Big 5... and i actually i mean big 2.. RBC and TD

allow me to LMAO for a second....hahahahahahahahahah!

Bay street first year analyst making 115k???? WALL STREET ANALYSTS DONT EVEN MAKE 115K IN BASE!!!

credtiderivatives is right.. base 70, max bonus 50%

i look forward to hearing how you came up with 115k and 150k!!

Sorry thought this was for IB... not ER, haven't asked about bonus from ER friends.

Also - the poster may be refering to Research Analyst, not associates, so maybe a comp of 115K base is possible. I don't know though.

The base is 65 with 5 signing for the Canadians, the Globals range from 70 to 95 base. Bonuses were quite different last year among the Big 5, some saw 50 for top bucket while others saw like half of that.

Max bonus 50%? Sorry, I don't buy that, unless you only mean for ER.

what are ER and capital market hiring numbers like this yr?

Calm down dude. I really don't think it's unreasonable for people to misinterpret -- not every firm uses the Analyst>Associate ranking in ER, and on top of that, people here might also just assume that you didn't know that, either.
