List of shops that do fixed income

Working on a project for school and trying to identify the places that do fixed income, which are the best, why they're good or bad, etc. I really don't know a whole lot about FI, any advice would be great

Are you talking multinational, domestic, state specific (US) and/or specific product within fixed income? Keep in mind that fixed income spans from municipal bonds to asset backed securities such as credit cards, mortgages, student loans to credit derivatives could all technically be classified fixed income. Maybe you want to narrow your search a bit.

 

I would organize it by firm size first that you want to deal with. For example if you are organizing by what most people consider bulge bracket firms in the US the list is relatively small compared to boutique or regional firms that might do fixed income. Here is a link to a topic on this website that will give you an idea how massive the list of regional firms are: //www.wallstreetoasis.com/forums/regional-boutiques.

I would try to pick a size of firm or a product and go from there to narrow your search down.

 

Hard to say other than the obvious choices(MS, ABN, Goldman, etc.) The Chicago based firms are likely to be prop shops, or regional brokers. The list that you pulled off of dtcc looks like a great place to start. You might want o just call or find someone on Linkedin who works in a firm that you recognize and ask them who the competition is, what firms they think are reputable, etc...
