Citizens Bank on the up?
It seems like they are generally doing well and building their LMM/MM presence. Any thoughts?

Citizens Bank has been making notable strides in building its middle-market investment banking (IB) presence, particularly following its acquisition of JMP Securities. Based on previous WSO threads, this move is seen as part of a broader strategy to revamp and expand its IB platform. With significant capital at its disposal, Citizens appears to be positioning itself as a stronger player in the middle-market space, leveraging JMP's expertise in areas like equity capital markets and M&A advisory.
While the acquisition signals growth ambitions, the long-term success will depend on how well Citizens integrates JMP's operations and talent into its broader platform. If you're considering opportunities with Citizens, it could be a promising time to join, especially if you're interested in middle-market IB. However, as with any bank in expansion mode, it's worth keeping an eye on how they execute their strategy and whether they can sustain momentum.

Congrats on the offer!
Anything is up if you are at the bottom
Is it that bad? Seems like they are getting solid deals done in REGAL (sole lead on a Caesars TLB) and digital infra.
Heard good things about their REGAL group, specifically gaming and lodging.
Their regal and digital infra group actually kill it. Looked them up and they advised on the $3B Bally’s divestiture deal, probably multi-billion deal Keller Williams sale to Stone Point this year, and a few other seemingly marquee M&A deals when regal groups at other large banks just pitch REITs lol
