No. If you are at a LMM IB and doing it, it's often for hairy, poorly managed companies where you are putting together financing (ABL, senior + sub/mezz, unitranche) to refinance, support growth, etc. or small growth equity capital raises. Unless the bank has a niche in software or some tech-related segment, it's incredibly difficult and the probability of success is much lower than M&A, particularly larger deals.
