Qatalyst advised DDUP. Nobody will get league table credit for EMC, but word is they abused several banks for work during the process.

 
gomes3pcQatalyst advised DDUP. Nobody will get league table credit for EMC, but word is they abused several banks for work during the process.

How/Why wouldn't any banks get credit for advising EMC?

 

Because none of them ever signed an engagement letter. EMC just worked them over for essentially free consulting advice. They've got a big M&A operation of their own, but companies do this all the time. If they can get a bank to do research or crunch numbers for them without paying, they will do it.
