Likely not. S&T is under pressure of Mifid II regulation right now.

GridironCEO, what's your opinion? Comment below:

Have buddies at third tier banks, think HSBC/nomura/BNP/mizuho, and their first years are on 85k plus 10k sign on plus $50k full first year base, so a bank that doesnt pay the highest is giving these kids $145k, industry coverage.

Haha in Hong Kong, actually Nomura pays almost the highest on the street, around 105K base. And BNP pays almost the lowest, around 60k base. So putting them together seems wrong...

How far does $155 go in NYC living an analyst lifestyle? Does everyone save a lot?

Anyone have numbers from last year, or 2018 estimates for third year associates at BB in New York.

Tough to get data points outside analyst numbers on this forum.

HugLife, what's your opinion? Comment below:

the original numbers:

A1: that number is ~ top bucket at an EBA2: Upper Middle bucket EB. Know kids who crack 200k as 2nd yr at EBA3: Don't know any analysts who are still there after 3. More banks are moving to 2 or 2.5 A2A promotion. But that seems light given the A2 over 200k.

I think realistic numbers (excl. sign-on)

A1: 85k + 60k - 75k A2: 90K + 75k - 90k (I'm treating the above as an outlier though if you guys know of more than i would revise upward)

These numbers are absolutely correct

the magnum:
What a lot of ppl seem to be missing is that stubs are extremely common these days for first years. Most BBs gave stubs, ex jpm and maybe another one. Standard An1 stub is 25k

True... forgot that this is a thing now.

jpmoranmonkeysachs, what's your opinion? Comment below:

Not sure how these bonuses could be this high for a 1st year analyst given that most start in the summer (mid year when it comes to bonus cycle). Pretty sure most BB 1st year comp is $85K base, $10K sign on bonus, $25K stub bonus.

NovaX, what's your opinion? Comment below:

First year analysts are definitely not pegged at the typical YE bonuses mentioned above. Most banks are stubbing the first years at 20-25k. I'm pretty sure S&T at a BB is getting 20 stubbed. 25-30 seems the higher end of the stubs this year.

Black-Gold, what's your opinion? Comment below:

A2 S&T at my BB was 90 + 45-65 + small stock grant. Anecdotally, seemed based on bucket rather than desk but my sample is trading-heavy. 90 + 30 seems below street but maybe other banks took the bad trading year to heart.

What buckets?

First year BB associate bonus with 150k base is less than 100k? 235k seems low for even middle bucket at a BB and 310k sounds high for even top bucket at EB.

310k was average at a top EB. The 235k was one anecdote (so not sure about bucket) in a BB m&a group.

Good headhunters?

Wouldn't know... I personally marked myself as "open" or whatever it is LinkedIn calls it to flag it to recruiters that you're open to different roles, they make it so those within your own company can't find you on the list, it's a free option... have been getting 2-3 messages a day, some are completely out of nowhere - Apple reached out for a supply chain role managing a part of their supply chain on the east coast at $165k, requiring you move out to their HQ.... keep in mind I'm a 2nd year and have no experience in supply chain so definitely would advise you to give it a go.
