*CANADIAN* 2020 Investment Banking Summer Analyst Thread
Hey everyone!
With IB SA and full-time recruitment starting up in Canada over these next couple months, lets get the thread going! This is make or break for some of us and a head start for others!
From what I heard: Evercore Toronto, GS Toronto, UBS and JPM Calgary are Open. Morgan Stanley Toronto just closed
Banking, eh?

jmsb is definitely a non-target right?
Lets get her going eh bauds, full send at the cotty in muskoka then packing dip sniping chicks down at boots and hearts. You guys got the ronas with lime ready just in time in for some good facking on campus recruitment and superdays
Not yet. Speaking with a VP there, I believe they are waiting until the end of the application period before moving forward.
I can't handle the stress of recruitment anymore, so im not going to apply to any banks. Good luck everyone and glad you find this page useful.
I am putting all my eggs in one basket - a firm in Los angeles
cheers
This is a mood
Barclays TO and CAL hasn't moved. They're starting next week
Decided to make a summary of everything thats went down/heard within this post for new readers who want up to date information - this is as of September 12, 2019
TPH Calgary - Finished/Superday has happened
Wells fargo - ongoing
Can we take the time to acknowledge how savage recruitment is ? This is a competitive process and I’m proud of all of you for having the courage to apply and having the necessary profiles to even get interviews.
If you don’t lock don’t give up , there’s ways to get in down the road at a later date. Much love
How does CPPIB work? I got my application seen today from them, how long am I supposed to wait? Or is it that if I don't get an offer after being seen I just didn't get it?
Anyone know much about NBF Toronto IB? In terms of deal flow, reputation, etc.
6 out of the Canadians, but growing fast. 4+ years ago they were nowhere, but some poaching+a culture collectivley focussed on their goal of being a Top 3 IBD in Canada has really made them competitive. Historically weighted towards ECM.
Lots of respect for them on the street within banking, not sure about PE. Historically mostly did Quebec coverage, but that's been changing. For FT they do a rotational program which adds optionality.
Of course, it's no RBC M&A or Goldman Sachs, but it's still a very respectable place to start off imo.
Edit: As for deal flow, group dependent. FIG, Calgary O&G, Mining, and P&U all see decent deal flow, again historically mostly ECM, but more M&A lately. Mandates range from tens of millions to a few billion generally.
