Houlihan Lokey Corporate Finance in London

I have seen comments on this forum that Houlihan Lokey is only an EB for RX and is MM for the rest.

Does anyone have any more insight on how their Corporate Finance team compares to other MM firms, e.g. RBC, Gleacher Shacklock, HSBC. Or is it more comparable to LMM firms like Lincoln International, DC Advisory, etc. 

Also any insight into their culture and exit ops would be much apprieciated.
