As far as I know, it’s considered an EB more often than a MM (but these categories are relatively arbitrary)
US - you could say EB. Europe/UK - more MM but expanding (esp digital infra and healthcare), maybe EB soon
What makes it an EB vs a MM?
I would personally consider it an EB if it is common to be doing 1bn+ EV deals but obviously what constitutes “common” is subjective. For example Greenhill doesn’t OFTEN do 1bn+ EV deals anymore therefore I (and I think most) would consider it more of a MM bank
NOOOOOOO. Cmon guys no where near EB. We can’t dilute the word EB!!!
Okay "intern"
No
group dependent — has transitioned to more of a MM strategy since 2020/2021 tho
Putting deal sizes aside, we have a balance sheet so we technically cannot be counted as an EB.
Their HC / TMT coverage groups are solid. Not the best but I think I would consider them comparable with adjacent groups at some of the EBs.
I mean if you have to ask, it probably isn’t
there's nothing wrong with having an MM strategy, gugg interns shilling for the EB name is just cringe lol
Guggenheim and Jefferies both fall into a grey area - I’d brand them a mini-bulge (perhaps half chubs for market purposes); almost akin to the old school partnership model pre Goldman IPO.
