Blackstone M&A London Summer Internship

Does anyone have any opinion on Blackstone M&A in London. I know that they are very good in New York but I do not about their london offices.

Also what are peoples opinions on SocGen's M&A group in London

Last question - Am I right in thinking that Goldman Sachs does not have an M&A product group? If so could someone explain the rationale behind this?

Thanks for your help

BX in London perhaps does not get the deal flow the NY office gets, but it still has a tremendous brand name. So if you have that offer for an internship I would say take it...unless you can leverage it for a GS/MS/JPM or Lazard/Rothschild, the latter being more of a cultural pick.

 

It seems that SocGen is investing $$ to push its M&A arm, in 2010 it's ranked 3rd on French league tables. However, outside France, I don't think it's there yet.
