Can I please request someone to provide the 2021 1st year Analyst comp numbers for BB IBs in Dubai and if they still provide housing allowance? Awaiting an offer from one of the BB IBs in the region.
Appreciate it!
Thanks!

Hi gsmabpbcfa, check out these threads:
More suggestions...
I hope those threads give you a bit more insight.

Base + housing would be approx 320-380k aed, depending on the bank. Bonus would be 200-300 again and widely varies.
May I ask how you came to that approximation, do you currently work within the region? TIA
I got offers from three shops in Dubai and got friends in almost every major bank in Dubai. Recent news is that Credit Suisse pays 120k housing allowance on top of the base - which is usually matched to London. If this is the case, it brings A1 salary before bonus to 420k AED
Bump
Moelis: 385k aed (105k usd) - excl. bonus
EDIT: didn’t notice you were specifically asking for BB
Do you have any idea of strong mid-market investment banks or boutiques in the region?
