GS / MS / JPM capital markets teams for summer internship (London)
I'm interested in the teams for GS, MS and JPM for capital markets in London but I wanted to know what the best and worst teams are in each of the three above.
I'm aware MS has GCM which is a smaller focus than the IBD teams, JPM has one standard IB team split across Capital Markets and Coverage Teams whereas GS has Classics and CSG (and I'm interested in CSG).
From my understanding
- MS LevFin is just execution, doesn't hold model. ECM and DCM not so strong.
- JPM has good teams in capital markets and good deal flow.
- GS has some good teams but eg LevFin can be long hours.
If anyone has insights, I would greatly appreciate it.
I'm also attending an GS IBD event on the 13th in London so I would really appreciate insight into GS CSG teams!
Thank you!
Based on the most helpful WSO content, here's a breakdown of the capital markets teams at GS, MS, and JPM in London:
Goldman Sachs (GS)
Morgan Stanley (MS)
J.P. Morgan (JPM)
Key Takeaways
Good luck at the GS IBD event on the 13th! Make sure to network and ask specific questions about the CSG team to gain deeper insights.

What's your question? Do you want to work in Capital Markets or not?
My question is "What are the capital markets' teams like at GS / MS / JPM?" as I have heard the points stated above but that is from what I heard: I don't know what the view is from people working in these divisions.
Oh ok sorry, then yes you are talking about the three biggest IB players so ofc heir Capital Markets teams are strong.
For ecm it's probably GS >> MS=JP, for DCM JP>>GS=MS, Levfin JP>GS>MS (I'm in Europe so maybe different in the US).
Anyway top banks, you can lateral, relocate, and you won't go wrong with any of them (unless you're a weird hardo who think PE is the end of everything like 90% of the kids on this forum)
Most capital markets teams are country aligned in London so think it heavily depends on what language you speak to determine “the best”. If you don’t speak a European language, you’re likely going to be in Nordics, UK, emerging markets, or a niche specialty (privates, converts, derivates, etc).
My friend no Levfin team hold the pen on the operating model. JPM, BNP, DB& GS are the cream de la cream and execution-led
MS? If you're going to put GS
Lol, GS and JPM is head and shoulder above MS. Even Barclays as well as is miles ahead of MS Levfin
Btw JPM Levfin only takes European language speakers.
Don't they have a British UK grad from cambridge coming in. Doubt he speaks a Euro language?
Did he do the summer internship
