2022 PubFin Discussion

Since PubFin often gets overlooked in the investment banking industry, I wanted to start a thread discussing updated PubFin information such as SA placements, FT positions, compensation data (base + bonus), benefits, and comparisons to other groups. Also, taking a look at the top Muni Underwriters from 2021 listed below, it would be interesting to see how these top 10 compare in terms of comp, benefits, and culture.

1) BofA

2) Citi

3) JPM

4) MS

5) RBC

6) GS

7) Stifel

8) WF

9) Jefferies

10) Piper Sandler
