Morgan Stanley Groups in London, Confused (Originally Posted: 10/23/2012)
Hi, young monkey here who is in talks with MS LDN/FRA
I was wondering if anyone knows which MS IBD groups are considered best in London.
How is it divided anyway?
1)Products: M&A, CapMarkets, Securitized Products...
2)Industries: TMT, Transportation, RE, HC...
3)Countries: Nordics, CEE...
Am I wrong here?
I dont really understand in which group can an analyst in London end up. Are there so many groups, or is M&A integrated in other groups? Or can you do the pure M&A, regardless of the industry/country etc.? I dont understand what deals would be that group getting, confused here :\
Many thanks guys!
I was checking linkedin profiles from random IB analysts @ MS in LDN, and got even more confused:
there is a guy working in the M&A (Oil & Gas Team) and there is also a guy in the Oil & Gas Sector Coverage
Now, are those 2 different groups? Does Oil & Gas Sector Coverage do any M&A or..?
I was always under the impression that MS did have a standalone M&A product group in London, but I could be wrong. I do know people that work within industry teams who do their own M&A who list their groups as Industry Coverage/Investment Banking, and others that use Industry M&A, despite these being the exact same teams.
Also, it's common to see geography-based groups with "M&A" or "Coverage" tagged on, sometimes mixed within the same bank, so you get UK M&A, but Nordic Coverage too.
Don't know about best groups though.
Thanks for your comment!
Best groups, as I was told on one of the MS events which I participated, during the informal conversation with one associate who recently joined from HLHZ Restrucutring: (roughly in this order, not 100% sure)
1) FIG, TMT 2) Transportation 3) Utilities 4) Oil & Gas
but pretty much all the groups should be well regarded, i think that she just mentioned o&g and utilities as an example

Hi, can I ask you whether you know something in particular about this office/division?
I know, kind of vague question. But any informal info is appreciated. I am having an interview for the summer internship position shortly. Thanks.
You need to be more specific. For which department do you have interviews?
he said in the title..IBD
within IBD off course
Is it a 1st round? If so, expect brain teasers from all the Analysts/Associates you'll meet
Yes, first round at the IBD.
Bach, thanks. Do you know something about the different teams, or some general info about the division?
Within the division, M&A and restructuring are the ones that interest me the most.
Well, all my interviewers came from the M&A Group, and also my personal connections are in that Group, therefore I have very limited knowledge of the cultural differences among the IBD Groups. Good luck!
MS does not hire analysts and associates for purely M&A, it has a pool with juniors. From VP and higher it is 100% M&A.
