BNP Paribas in 2020 & Desk Choice

Hey Im an incoming S&T summer analyst in BNP NYC, recently finishing the desk placement survey. Wondering if there are some better groups in the bank and the future of BNP in USA...Any insights would be much appreciated. Thank you.

I think it is because France is home to some of the best quant & STEM universities in the world with a few specifically being business focused STEM programs , and because of this the french banks have put a lot of resources and recruiting efforts into expanding that side of business, now they are amongst the best. They seem focused on building brain power in complex areas, since they know they will never be able to compete globally in M&A and other areas like that. Just my opinion based on observations, never worked at a french bank
