Canaccord Genuity Thoughts

What’s Canaccord’s reputation like in the TMT space these days? How do they compare and rank against other banks in the space, what does comp look like nowadays, and is it a good place to be as an analyst? and exits what do they look like.

It’s a very good bank in the LMM. Intense dealflow, you will get the reps you need from a coverage and M&A perspective.

TMT, specifically IT, digital, and marketing services is one where I’ve seen them compete with much larger banks because they got so much expertise doing deals in the LMM.

MDs are aggressive bankers for sure and know what they are doing . I can’t speak for exits but I honestly have a lot of respect for the bank.

I work at a BB. Before switching into IB I worked in corp dev where CG was active in the industry I covered. Can’t even be genuine on this site without some clown coming at you

 

any thoughts on exits? specifically up market to good MM / if lower BB is possible?

 

Good MM bank. Very strong deal flow with an emphasis on growth companies. Have heard the culture in the US is much better than in Canada. You'll get good reps.

Decent place to be as an analyst with salaries often exceeding street. CG doesn't have the best brand name in the US, so exits could be limited. In terms of exits, have seen a bit of LMM PE but yet to see anything crazy.
