Disagree - their GI & Sponsors team have been pumping deals out

Also their PC business going gangbusters

 

Tbh not sure what trend you’re talking about - if anything market has shifted heavily in favour of BBs (anecdotally know 2-3 people at these shops that have moved up to BB + have heard of others that my bank is hiring)

Gresham probably a tier above the rest in your list but everyone (boutiques and BB alike) are trying to navigate a fairly challenged M&A environment outside of a handful of industries / top performing groups

 

Thanks for the colour. What makes them the best in Melbourne, out of curiosity?
