German M&A Professional

Hello everyone,

I am a German native with a MBA and a MS in Finance from an U.S. university. Furthermore, I have a couple of years experience in M&A and I am sitting for the CFA® exams. I am also in the process of getting a permanent working permission.

I am looking for a job in the M&A industry and I am curious if someone knows if there is a demand for German speaking M&A professionals in the U.S.? Does anyone know a Investment Bank that does a lot of transactions with Europe or Germany?

If you have any other thoughts, please feel free to post them.

I am looking forward to reading your postings.

Thank you very much!

Ralf

most european investment banks do M&A for european companies.....why would a US investment bank, with offices in Europe, do M&A from the NY office?

EnteringRealLifenot in the US, your only bet is Europe. Tell you "5 foot 3" business interest that she needs to move to London, so you can work for CS, JPM, GS, Rothschild etc...

And what if 5' 3 is a star banker at GS in NY?

 

Go back to germany maaan and leave your 5'3' bird behind.
