Sell-side research quality is hard to judge objectively given different market participants have different needs and goals and it's impossible to make all buy-side clients happy at the same time. 

For long-term, deep dive investors, Berenberg puts out thoughtful pieces and focuses on the industry. So subjectively I value that. That said, I did emphasize their European operation because US is a completely different story where they have been growing very rapidly but I wouldn't have the same nice things to say about a lot of newer US analysts they hired, some of whom came from outside the industry or straight out of college and have lead coverage, which will not be sustainable. 

 

Agree with Dick. Not sure I’d categorize the US biz as harshly as he would though, I’ve been seeing a lot of young Berenberg folks pop up at top SS and some pretty decent BS shops over the last twelve months. The ones I’ve worked with are pretty solid, and usually have good things to say. US market isn’t dominated by long only bias like Europe, so probably a bit harder for them to get traction. Still seems like they have some solid analysts and some crap ones, status quo.
