GS, not even close. GS FIG is widely regarded as a top group on the street on they lead many of the FinTech IPOs and do well across FIG. JPM and MS also do pretty well across FIG and are especially known for their banks / depositories teams. All have brutal cultures. BofA and Citi are next and are fine but have fallen a bit over the past couple years, still pretty strong though. Shout out to Piper Sandler as well as they might have the best banks team on the street (Sandler O'Neil people), pretty weak in the other FIG verticals though.

 

Second this, would say GS / JPM / Citi / BofA lead the FinTech vertical in terms of deal size and deal flow at the BB level.

For MM, constantly see Piper / KBW (Stifel) on many respective mandates.
