Is Guggenheim an EB or MM?
Pardon me if this is a stupid question, but is Guggenheim an EB or MM? I rarely see them mentioned on here.

They are frequently mentioned on here. I would rank them in the middle of EB-MM, they still need a few more strong years to be considered a true EB.
They have a solid mm deal pipeline and are even building out a mm-specific program in Chicago. That being said, overall deal experience for the ny program is more similar to an EB than an mm, 95% of all the senior bankers in ny are ex-lehman/ex-bb/ex-eb.
Not talked about much on wso because it's still relatively new and growing fast so people have a hard time giving it a label
They have an MM practice in Chicago via the William Blair bankers they poached, but they primarily compete with the EBs and BBs on M&A assignments.
Very strong Media franchise. Think they're strong in Healthcare too.
It's a BM - Big Mess
Gugg : EB ;; RBC : BB
But fr though these kinds of banks show how lumping companies into broad categories doesnt work perfectly in real life.
They’re both middle market with some adventures in large cap land from time to time.
Edit: RBC and Gugg interns have entered the chat
I work at a "standard" EB and know that to call Guggenheim a MM bank is wildly inaccurate. Define EB however you want it...but Gugg does the same size deals as all the other EBs. They very recently began building out a MM franchise in Chicago but the bulk of what they do is in line with what we do.
