Hi,What are your thoughts on the industry group.I have read in old threats that the group is strong reputation and placement wise, but do be honest I have never heard anyone talk about it, when MS is mentioned. The only groups that come to mind are M&A, Med&Comms, Healthcare and sometimes FSG (even though they are on a declining basis according to many people on this forum).Cheers

Hey Intern in IB-M&A, the following topics might be helpful:
More suggestions...
If those topics were completely useless, don't blame me, blame my programmers...
I have heard that it's quite sweaty. Don't think that they are a top group in the space but you will be fine exits wise though since it is still MS (seen some great exits over the last few years to top PE funds).
Known to be awesome culturally
Seconded
Transpo is also good. Why is FSG on a declining basis?
I have no idea. I just read this in another post, where people said they ate among the worst teams
Can you link that? It seems like they're usually considered a top group
definitely not a top group in the space, consistently outside of the top 5 for advisory and large M&A
but agree with the above that exits are still decent because it’s MS
Oh really, that's interesting because in some posts on this forum.they are mentioned as one of the top.groups at MS
Think the above poster meant outside of the top 5 in P&U and Renewables deals
Good group culturally and they do their own M&A (but would caveat that P&U can be a pretty particular type of business to model)
FSG is a culture group and prob will get good exits anyways bc MS
a FT analyst also ranked those 3 groups as top when I was networking fwiw
Agreed on the top groups, but Transpo’s been a bit lighter on deal flow recently (understandable given market conditions) - heard the juniors have been occupied with a lot of BD work.
Niche space but this group specifically has good exits to generalist PE
When networking, learned that MS top groups are M&A, GPUG, and M&C. FSG is a close 4th and Transpo at 5. Exits have been consistently good from M&A (traditional PE) and GPUG into traditional PE and/or Infra and Energy. M&C sends to UMM and MF Tech PE. M&A culture is very sweaty. M&C is better than M&A, but getting increasingly sweaty. GPUG culture is known to be one of the best in firm, a close second to Sponsors. Transpo is pretty sweaty too.
Your comments on sweatiness is more like the exact opposite for the groups you mention lol
