HSBC ranked 1st in IB rankings for Mid-Year 2025

I thought J.P Morgan were wiping the floor but I saw this post from Krugman Insights:

💡HSBC retained its top spot with $64.0M in fees, capturing 8.3% wallet share despite a -2% YoY decline in total industry fees. HSBC’s continued dominance reflects its regional strength in advisory, capital markets, and structured finance.
