Based on the most helpful WSO content:
JPMorgan LatAm Group:
BofA LatAm Group:
Both groups are highly regarded for their expertise in the LatAm market, but the niche focus means exit opportunities are more specialized. If you're fluent in Spanish or Portuguese and have a strong interest in the region, these groups can provide excellent exposure and experience.

BofA’s LatAm team is legit. Solid reputation, strong bankers and good deal flow. But as with every group at BofA, you will get paid well below market. Imagine JPM is similar with higher comp.
Any idea on culture? Ive heard its one of, if not the sweatiest group out of nyc office
Mind if I PM?
What are the banks in Brazil that pay the most ?
BofA has regional offices all over LatAm, and their teams only cover the country they're in. At least in Argentina, they're seen as one of the top M&A teams and even though they haven’t been announcing many deals in the past 1/2 years, they’re known for strong deal flow and solid mandates. Their MD is kind of a celeb, culture is good, and work-life balance depends on the deal flow in the country (since they have small teams, during times of strong deal flow they tend to work NYC hours). Comp is among the highest on the street, if not the highest.
JPM also has regional offices across LatAm, but all their A&As are pooled and staffed on deals from different countries, so analysts are usually juggling multiple deals, and work-life balance is pretty much non-existent. They also have one of the most respected M&A teams in LatAm and are very active in DCM and ECM. Compensation is also top-tier.
Everything mentioned doesn’t apply to Brazil, though, which is a whole different story.
Thanks for the reply, do you mind explaining why Brazil is different? Is it because BTG and Itau have the most dealflow?
Brazil is a whole different world bc most banks have entire teams on site (rather than the small regional office) so they have their own culture, work on their own deals and set salaries independently
Mind if I PM?
Sure, DMs open
