I wanted to start a thread on the best technology banks in London in 2025, I think the landscape is changing here and interested to see how people compare the EBs vs BBs and where they see some of the more specialised technology focused boutiques. I work for a highly specialised tech EB so keen to here people's thoughts!
I am also an investment banking coach, helping people get into investment banking either from graduate or other professional backgrounds e.g. big 4 and audit, so if you have any interest in sessions with me, please let me know :)

Just Technology (and not TMT as a whole), I would say the following are pretty good (in no particular ordert)
Houlihan Lokey, Arma Partners, Morgan Stanley, Qatalyst Partners, Goldman and Raine Group
Congrats on Houlihan
Houlihan over Blair and RJ Tech? News to me
They are all in the same league...
How does Arma Partners compare to TMT groups at EB's and other BB's?
Usual BB/EB suspects (inc. Q and Raine) have good deal flow in TMT so will focus on MM in no particular order. Will caveat that balance sheet banks tend to do better in telecoms anecdotally
Technology: Arma; RJ; Houlihan; Gugg; Jeff; WB; Nomura (better for business services) FT Partners (obviously fintech, London office does good deals); GPB + Equiteq + Silverpeak + Torch (all 4 focus on LMM)
Media: As above but particularly Arma + RJ + Houlihan + Jeff; GPB + JEGI Clarity do very well in the mid- to lower mid-market here as no real specialists otherwise; Lincoln also does some work in the LMM but lose on a lot of mandates so not a strong player
Telecoms: Arma; Houlihan; Gugg; Liontree; Torch (for LMM) - probably missing some names here but I know that those have strong telecom deal flow
Arma strong telco dealflow? Where'd you hear/seen that?
GPB and Torch are not LMM, Jegi Clarity is not a MM
how about DB?
