FIG Banking

Currently full time in credit at a BB and looking to get into FIG banking (IB or Corporate). First internship was at a good sized private regional bank, and I really enjoyed learning the balance sheet/income statement of a financial institution, and the regulations that go along with that. Next step was naturally credit and was fortunate enough to land at a BB for my internship and FT offer, but ultimately want to be working in FIG banking. Some resources I've been studying are McKinsey Valuation (8th edition) Banks section, WSP FIG Modeling Course, BIWS FIG Modeling Course, and generally keeping up with news/M&A in this space. If anyone has any advice on further resources to study or advice on how to break into banking in this space, please PM me or comment below. Would be much appreciated.
