Can you post the full list?
What's completed? CS immediately pops out, as does Citi.
Lazard's killing it.
Barcap???? Guess its the Lehman guys doing their shit.
Shame about BaML...ML was a prime show in its heyday.
dude 2 months of announced deals...not what u want to look at
Take FY09 completed deals
funny list, especially blackstone who just announced their only deal this year yesterday and made to # 8.
so much to the representativeness of this list.
AIA 35.5 bn announced yest. GS, Citi, MS on sellside - CS JPM on buyside
sucks for the ones not in it
MS is not on it. Add Blackstone to sellside, HSBC and Lazard to buyside.
MORON - MS is in it - they advised FRBNY ... they're onr etainer to advise FRBY on everything
Advisors to AIG - Citi + GS Advisors to Pru - CS, JPM, Lazard - HSBC is NOT an advisor - they're commited to underwriting the rights Advisors to FRBNY - MS
get your facts right
It's only been 2 months and its announced, basically whoever yells first wins.
Take a look at 4th Quarter of 2009 COMPLETED for a real glimpse.

Relax guys, no one is saying that this list is better than completed or that it is a better representation than FY09 or even 4Q09, this is just a snapshot of announced deals including all the deals announced today. Take it for what it is, I can't pull the completed. This is just for the curious of what is currently going on with announced deals.
People on WSO have got to chill out and just take information instead of always criticizing every word someone else says, this forum turns every thread into a battle
Info on aforementioned deal. MS, BX, Lazard all involved.

Bloomberg has CS on top because of the Carso deal and others, GS second.
And from BBG
Acquirer FA - CS JPM Lazard Seller Legal - Davis Polk, Debevois Plimpton, and Weil Gotschal Seller FA - Blackstone, Citi, GS, MS (blackstone advised board of AIG per their global mandate)

No need to get offensive here....
I am pretty sure when first the news came out, MS was not involved at all. Seems that today they got somehow involved and got some league table credits. And if you know the deal background (which you would if you are actually in this industry), MS shouldn't be involved in this transaction, they probably just squeezed in last minute after the deal was announced to get some credit.
Some news had HSBC as an advisor in it, it seems that I am wrong about this. You can point it out, in a polite way.
^^
1) Yes i'm in the industry
2) They didn't "squeeze in". MS has an ongoing mandate to advise FRBNY
3) HSBC is an advisor on the capital raise b/c they have the $$ tounderwrite the rights offering
4) I"m clearly joking lol
5) I've been in this industry longer than you have but I don't really care because please reference 4) - I'm joking ....
^^ You do realize AIG can't sell AIA / ALICO w/o the FRB's permission right? So logic dictates that their shareholders would need to be consulted.
Anyway, I'm sorry if I was too blunt before. In a sugar rush, I spammed that on the board
Sorry
Don't you think there is a clear conflict of interest if MS was part of this? But I wasn't involed so I don't know what happened. But I am pretty sure there are a lot of interesting stories/drama/tears shed in this deal that is not known to outsiders.
I hope you are joking, otherwise it is weird to have someone having an emotional attachment to league table being in the industry for a while.
Nah - just playing around.
Why would there be conflict?
