KeyBank Capital Markets

I was wondering what people thought of KeyBank. Pretty sure they are going to be the 13th largest bank after the acquisition of First Niagara is completed. Their retail bank is so so but from what I've heard they have a really solid investment bank. Their industrials and real estate group is good from what I have heard.

They also bought Pacific Crest Securities awhile back to get a tech vertical and I know they were in on the Alibaba deal. I don't know seems like the bank is on the up and coming so just wondering people's thoughts on their IBD and capital markets in general.

Thanks!
