Does anyone have updated figures for GS/MS/JPM first year salaries in London? There is alot of conflicting information, if you work at these insitutions kindly comment the true values- most interested in MS as people are saying it is the lowest (Apparently still £50k). Cheers :)

MS IBD is £70k
Are you asking about base salary or all in comp? 50k has never been the all in comp for anyone working in IBD lol.
MS base is 70k alongside GS and JPM. Most other shops are somewhere between 60k-70k. If you're in IBD you'll probs end up around 100k-125k all in depending on bucketing and what firm you work at. Could be higher at some boutiques. Haven't heard of anywhere paying higher than 70k base for undergrads other than some buyside shops which have raised to 100k base and quant places going even further.
PJT at 80k base
Can you earn 120k £ in your first year? Thats crazy
yes, but depends where you work. If you're a trader at a top prop shop you're probably somewhere in the region of 225k as a first year. If you're doing a buyside gig or high paying boutique grad scheme out of undergrad you could be around 130k-170k as a first year. 120k is probably the upper-upper region of mainstream IBD.
Anyone familiar with EVR london comp ?
62 An1 base, bonus to be paid early Aug so no indication on that. Prev year bonus was c. 38k top bucket for industry teams and c. 42k for PCM
seems to be quite a low bonus tbh compared to big3 and bofa, citi. All in comp 100k for top bucket??
£38k bonus for top bucket? That seem absurdly low for EB. Source?
Yeah wtf, my BB An1 bonus was higher than that, and that was years ago...
Source: me (not actually an intern). Worth remembering that evr London is not nearly the same as evr US
