Barclays IBD FT Analyst in Asia - Thoughts?
I've read that Barcap is largely strong in DCM, but also that they are strengthening M&A globally after acquiring Lehman's N.A. business.
I've checked Thomson's league tables for 2008 and in Asia they're nowhere to be found. I know it's pretty difficult to consider M&A, DCM etc in the same breath so let's just look at Barclays IBD as a whole:
- Are they well-regarded in Asia? Would exit opps be good?
- Which product/industry groups are strong?
I thought some Japanese company took over Lehman's Asia operations.
Yes that was Nomura. What I said was Barclays bought Lehman's North American operations.
Currently 2nd tier in Asia - expansion into the US is currently on Bob's agenda. But probably Asia will be next. Then, world domination by the looks of it.
Just my 2c.
