I see a lot of talk about JPM/BAML/CS LevFin on here for exit ops but how does JEF compare?They seem to hold the pen on the model & originate a lot of pretty large deals. Seems to be one of their top groups.With JEF growing so rapidly in all areas, but especially LevFin, can we expect to see some MF PE exits on the horizon from that team? Have an offer to join from lower tier BB coverage & definitely considering it.

10xLeveraged and I both provided some good commentary in the thread below, ignore the first few comments which are largely inaccurate.

Thanks my friend
Happy to help. In short, definitely a top group there (if not the top group). CS, UBS, Jeff have all been on fire in the sponsor levfin space. I am not sure about MF placements from most of these spots (HH will still go with a GS/MS/JPM coverage AN) but extremely good credit fund and UMM/MM PE placements from these shops. None of them get talked about enough on WSO.
Excellent to hear. Sounds like I’m going to be a LevFin banker pretty soon lol
Is a top group at the bank along with healthcare. As mentioned above may be the top group. Purely in terms of exits, UMM/MM PE will be most common along with MF credit. They do a lot of storied/hairy deals so special sits types of shops would be in play. In terms of PE, as a whole levfin exits are not as strong generally for PE than M&A (not at jefferies just in general). The bar for PE is generally a little higher for LevFin analysts given the nature of the work. MF won't be super common but not impossible.
A lot of analysts go A2A. Culture is really strong compared to other Jefferies groups and is known to have better lifestyle, at least when credit markets arent steaming ahead at 10000%.
I can attest that this is about as accurate as it will get it, folks.
+1 this comment. Top group w insane dealflow and very unique deals at that given Jefferies’ market position in B- issuance. Relatively good lifestyle most of the time. Hardest group to get if you interned and are in the generalist pool. You would think it’d be healthcare as purely for exits it’s stronger, but that group is so sweaty you’ll overall see more kids going for levfin.
Does Jeff LevFin place better than Jeff RX?
