Hello all, incoming SA at DB in London. Was wondering what the strongest groups were at the moment given the last thread on this is a bit dated. Would appreciate any insight.

Leveraged Finance
Then TMT / Industrials
Thanks, gathered Lev Fin was one of the strong groups. Thanks for the insight on the other two.
Whatever you do, stay away from HC.
Noted haha Any chance you could tell me why out of interest?
Interviewing there - please tell me.
A very good friend of mine lasted 7 months with the team. It told me it was a horrible experience
LevFin definitely the strongest team in the firm. Generally considered one of the best LevFin teams on the street (EMEA). FIG, TMT, Industrials and REGLL also very respectable
Good summary
Thanks for the overview.
Agree with the rest that LevFin, Industrials, and FIG are extremely strong groups.
HC has worst culture
Consumer has had very good deal flow recently and culture is great.
Bumping to see if anyone can offer their thoughts on the Infra & Utilities team?
