Decent MM for FT

Hey all,

I'm currently reaching out to contacts and anyone in the industry for upcoming FT recruiting and was having trouble compiling a list of banks to look into.

Does anyone have suggestions for banks that are decent MM shops? Banks that are similar to STRH, Raymond James, not necessarily elite boutiques.

Thanks.

Some of these are more so boutiques, but this should cover most MMs at least:

Baird BB&T BMO Cain Brothers Cowen Harris Williams Houlihan Lokey Jefferies Lazard MM (not the same as the EB) Leerink Swan Lincoln International Macquarie (some say they are a BB in Australia) Peter Solomon Piper Jaffray Raymond James RBC Rothschild Sagent Advisors Sandler O’Neil Stephens Stifel Sunstrust Williams Blair
